What her chart says about her

  1. Who she is

    Sun in Taurus, the Gardener

    Calm, patient and loyal. Grows good things slowly and keeps them for years. A quiet strength: under pressure she grows more focused, and she knows how to start over.

    The Sun trine Pluto (almost exact at 0.6°)

  2. What she needs

    Moon in Aries or Taurus, the Quick Flame

    Feels in bursts, honestly and all at once. Hates sitting still with a mood, and needs a way to act on it.

    For a birth after 5:29 p.m., her Moon was in Taurus.

  3. How she loves

    Venus in Aries, the Chaser

    Falls fast and loves the chase. Wants passion, honesty and a partner who keeps up. Charm and desire work together: she knows what she wants in love and how to win it.

    Venus trine Mars (almost exact at 0.9°)

  4. How she thinks

    Mercury in Gemini, the Quick Wit

    Quick, witty and endlessly curious. Picks up a subject fast and can talk about ten things at once. A graceful mind: she speaks kindly and well, and she knows how to say a hard thing gently.

    Mercury sextile Venus (close at 2.6°)

  5. What drives her

    Mars in Sagittarius, the Champion

    Adventurous and principled. Throws herself behind big causes and what is right. Sharp words and a sharp mind: she argues well, sometimes too well, and a debate is a kind of sport to her.

    Mercury opposition Mars (wide at 3.6°)

  6. The shape of her chart

    Uranus is the hub of her chart: it takes part in six of its aspects, more than any other body, so her independence touches everything else in it. In her chart, earth signs hold the most planets: the practical and the solid.
