What her chart says about her

  1. Who she is

    Sun in Virgo, the Fixer

    Notices what is out of place and knows how to make it better. Shows love by being useful, and has a dry, quick humour that surprises people. Charm comes naturally: taste, warmth and a love of beautiful things are close to her core.

    The Sun conjunction Venus (wide at 5.4°)

  2. What she needs

    Moon in Leo, the Warm Heart

    Needs to feel loved, appreciated and a little special, and gives warmth generously in return.

  3. How she loves

    Venus in Virgo, the Quiet Romantic

    Loves quietly and attentively. Shows care through thoughtful help and remembering the small things. A deep, private heart: she draws people in and keeps some feelings locked away.

    Venus conjunction Pluto (almost exact at 0.8°)

  4. How she thinks

    Mercury in Virgo, the Analyst

    Clever, methodical and useful. Turns a muddle into a list and the list into results. She doubts her own ideas before anyone else can, and so she checks every one twice.

    Mercury square Saturn (almost exact at 0.2°)

  5. What drives her

    Mars in Aquarius, the Rebel

    Independent and inventive in action. Fights for the group, the future and a fairer way. Quick and inventive in action: she moves fast, breaks with habit and makes sudden changes work.

    Mars trine Uranus (almost exact at 0.4°)

  6. The shape of her chart

    In her chart, her identity, her mind, her heart and her intensity (the Sun, Mercury, Venus and Pluto) gather in Virgo, and that part of life draws her attention first. No water at all, so feelings come out in actions more than in words.
