What her chart says about her

  1. Who she is

    Sun in Taurus, the Gardener

    Unhurried, warm and hard to rattle. Has a gift for comfort, beauty and making things that last. Imagination and identity work together: she can become a character, a mood or an idea, and make others believe in it.

    The Sun trine Neptune (wide at 6.9°)

  2. What she needs

    Moon in Capricorn, the Steady Hand

    Keeps feelings under control and feels safest when life is organised and secure. Feelings come second to duty: she holds herself to a high standard, even in private.

    The Moon opposition Saturn (almost exact at 0.6°)

  3. How she loves

    Venus in Gemini, the Charmer

    Loves with words and wit. Needs a partner to talk with late into the night.

  4. How she thinks

    Mercury in Taurus, the Careful Thinker

    Thinks things through at her own pace. Practical, patient and very hard to talk out of a view. The facts and the bigger picture need constant reconciling, and she keeps checking one against the other.

    Mercury quincunx Jupiter (close at 1.5°)

  5. What drives her

    Mars in Leo, the Leader

    Bold, proud and full of drive. Wants to lead, works hardest on what is dear to her, and wants to be recognised for it. Quick and inventive in action: she moves fast, breaks with habit and makes sudden changes work.

    Mars sextile Uranus (close at 3.0°)

  6. The shape of her chart

    Jupiter is the hub of her chart: it takes part in five of its aspects, more than any other body, so her optimism touches everything else in it. Most of her planets are in air signs: ideas and people.
