What her chart says about her

  1. Who she was

    Sun in Capricorn, the Architect

    Serious, capable and ambitious. Builds a life step by step, and gets more playful and lighter with age. Charm came naturally: taste, warmth and a love of beautiful things were close to her core.

    The Sun conjunction Venus (wide at 5.4°)

  2. What she needed

    Moon in Virgo or Libra, the Mender

    Shows feeling in practical ways: a fixed problem, a remembered detail, a cup of tea at the right time.

    For a birth after 9:21 p.m., her Moon was in Libra.

  3. How she loved

    Venus in Capricorn, the Loyal Partner

    Loves with steadiness and staying power. Takes commitment seriously and builds something lasting. She loved too much of a good thing: pleasure, praise and grand gestures ran past what one life could use.

  4. How she thought

    Mercury in Aquarius, the Inventor

    Original and future-minded. Thinks in systems and finds new ways to do old things. What she knew and what she said needed careful managing, and secrets sat uneasily with her.

    Mercury quincunx Pluto (close at 1.4°)

  5. What drove her

    Mars in Scorpio, the Strategist

    Determined, focused and private. Plans quietly and never forgets a goal. Drive and dreams mixed uneasily: the goal was clear to her, and the way to it harder to see.

    Mars square Neptune (close at 2.3°)
