What her chart says about her

  1. Who she is

    Sun in Taurus, the Gardener

    Steady as bedrock. Takes time to decide, and once something is chosen, it is kept and looked after. She keeps rebuilding herself to fit what life asks, and control is the hardest thing to give up.

    The Sun quincunx Pluto (almost exact at 0.9°)

  2. What she needs

    Moon in Taurus, the Hearth

    Settled by simple, solid comforts: a good meal, a quiet evening, the same people year after year.

  3. How she loves

    Venus in Aries, the Chaser

    Loves boldly and makes the first move. Wants excitement, honesty and a partner with spirit. Love feels like something to be earned, and she holds back until she is sure of it.

    Venus square Saturn (almost exact at 0.4°)

  4. How she thinks

    Mercury in Gemini, the Quick Wit

    Fast, curious and funny. Thinks out loud and collects ideas from everywhere. A patient, exact mind: she chooses every word, and her thinking gets sharper with practice.

    Mercury sextile Saturn (wide at 3.5°)

  5. What drives her

    Mars in Cancer, the Defender

    Driven by feeling. Goes the furthest for something personal, and guards home fiercely. Controlled force: she works with patience and grit, and she finishes what she starts.

  6. The shape of her chart

    In her chart, her identity, her feelings and her optimism (the Sun, the Moon and Jupiter) gather in Taurus, and that part of life draws her attention first.
