What her chart says about her

  1. Who she was

    Sun in Scorpio, the Detective

    Private and powerful. Sees past the surface, keeps secrets well and does nothing halfway. Born original: her identity and her need for freedom were the same thing, and she surprised people, herself included.

    The Sun conjunction Uranus (wide at 5.7°)

  2. What she needed

    Moon in Scorpio, the Vault

    Feels everything strongly and privately. Needs trust, loyalty and honesty above all. Restless feelings: she felt most at home where things were new.

    The Moon conjunction Uranus (close at 2.5°)

  3. How she loved

    Venus in Scorpio, the Devotee

    Loves fiercely, privately and for keeps. Wants complete trust and a bond that goes beneath the surface. Loyal in love: she chose carefully, and what she built with people lasted.

    Venus sextile Saturn (close at 1.0°)

  4. How she thought

    Mercury in Sagittarius, the Philosopher

    A wide-ranging mind. Learns by asking, travelling and following a question as far as it goes. She doubted her own ideas before anyone else could, and so she checked every one twice.

    Mercury square Saturn (close at 1.8°)

  5. What drove her

    Mars in Leo, the Leader

    Full of fire and pride. Works hardest for a cause close to her heart and wants the effort to be seen. A quick, direct mind: she made decisions fast and said what she meant.

    Mercury trine Mars (wide at 4.2°)

  6. The shape of her chart

    In her chart, her identity, her feelings, her heart and her independence (the Sun, the Moon, Venus and Uranus) gather in Scorpio, and that part of life drew her attention first. No earth at all, so the practical, settled side was the one she had to find.
