Oracular little jerk after Virginia? (5)
I believe the answer is:
vatic
'oracular' is the definition.
(I've seen this in another clue)
'little jerk after virginia?' is the wordplay.
'little jerk' becomes 'tic' (jerking movement by the body).
'after' says to put letters next to each other.
'virginia?' becomes 'va' (US state abbreviation).
'tic' put after 'va' is 'VATIC'.
(Other definitions for vatic that I've seen before include "as a prophet" , "Predicting" , "Prophetic" , "Inspired" , "about prophecy" .)
