What her chart says about her

  1. Who she is

    Sun in Leo, the Bright One

    Generous, loyal and born for a stage of some kind. Wants to be proud of the work and the people around her. Her mind and her identity are close together: she speaks as she thinks, and her ideas are part of who she is.

    The Sun conjunction Mercury (close at 2.2°)

  2. What she needs

    Moon in Taurus or Gemini, the Hearth

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

    For a birth after 6:32 p.m., her Moon was in Gemini.

  3. How she loves

    Venus in Cancer, the Nurturer

    Loves by caring and protecting. Wants a partner who feels like home. She loves with depth and loyalty, and the bonds she forms change both people.

    Venus trine Pluto (wide at 6.2°)

  4. How she thinks

    Mercury in Leo, the Storyteller

    Speaks with flair and conviction. Thinks in bold strokes and tells a story everyone remembers. She doubts her own ideas before anyone else can, and so she checks every one twice.

  5. What drives her

    Mars in Leo, the Leader

    Confident, dramatic and courageous. Puts heart into every effort and likes to lead from the front. She takes on more than any one person can, and her boldness runs ahead of her plans.

  6. The shape of her chart

    In her chart, her identity, her mind and her drive (the Sun, Mercury and Mars) gather in Leo, and that part of life draws her attention first. In her chart, fire signs hold the most planets: instinct and enthusiasm.
