What her chart says about her
Who she is
Sun in Aries, the Pioneer
Happiest going first. Starts things with real nerve and loves a challenge that needs someone brave. 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 (close at 1.8°)
What she needs
Moon in Libra or Scorpio, the Peacemaker
Feels most at peace when the people around her are at peace. Needs beauty, balance and someone to share things with. The self she shows the world and the self she comes home to want different things, and she makes room for both.
The Sun opposition the Moon (close at 1.8°) · For a birth after 11:16 p.m., her Moon was in Scorpio.
How she loves
Venus in Pisces, the Tender Heart
Loves selflessly and romantically. Sees the best in people and gives without counting. Affection and the need for control keep getting in each other’s way, and trust takes her time.
Venus quincunx Pluto (almost exact at 0.3°)
How she thinks
Mercury in Pisces, the Poet
Dreamy and perceptive. Remembers how a moment felt better than what was said in it. A generous, wide-ranging mind: she learns easily, tells a good story and sees the big picture.
Mercury trine Jupiter (close at 2.5°)
What drives her
Mars in Aries, the Trailblazer
Pure forward motion. Brave, competitive and happiest in the middle of the action. Big drive and big confidence: she goes after large goals, and her enthusiasm carries others along.
