What her chart says about her

  1. Who she is

    Sun in Leo, the Bright One

    Warm, generous and made to be seen. Makes a room feel brighter and wants the people in it to shine too. More sensitive to criticism than it looks. Born near a new Moon, so what she wants and what she needs move as one: single-minded, and hard to talk out of anything.

  2. What she needs

    Moon in Leo, the Warm Heart

    Proud, warm and loyal in feeling. Needs to be appreciated, and makes loved ones feel like stars.

  3. How she loves

    Venus in Virgo, the Quiet Romantic

    Modest in love and devoted to the bone. Proves feelings through actions rather than speeches. She loves the dream of a person, and the real one has to compete with it.

  4. How she thinks

    Mercury in Leo, the Storyteller

    Speaks with warmth and confidence and tells a great story. Thinks in big, bold ideas. A generous, wide-ranging mind: she learns easily, tells a good story and sees the big picture.

  5. What drives her

    Mars in Taurus, the Stayer

    Slow and sure. She does not rush, and she is hard to push off course. Her drive and her discipline work together easily: she can push hard and keep going.

  6. The shape of her chart

    In her chart, her identity, her feelings and her mind (the Sun, the Moon and Mercury) gather in Leo, and that part of life draws her attention first. The weight of her chart sits in fire signs: instinct and enthusiasm.
