What her chart says about her
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. The self she knows and the image others see drift apart at times, and she works to keep hold of the real one.
The Sun square Neptune (almost exact at 0.9°)
What she needs
Moon in Taurus, the Hearth
Calm, warm and steady. Feels safest with good food, soft things and a familiar routine, and makes everyone around her feel the same.
How she loves
Venus in Virgo, the Quiet Romantic
Loves quietly and attentively. Shows care through thoughtful help and remembering the small things. A generous heart: love and good company come to her easily, and she shares both.
Venus conjunction Jupiter (close at 2.8°)
How she thinks
Mercury in Virgo, the Analyst
Clever, methodical and useful. Turns a muddle into a list and the list into results. A patient, exact mind: she chooses every word, and her thinking gets sharper with practice.
Mercury trine Saturn (wide at 5.7°)
What drives her
Mars in Leo, the Leader
Confident, dramatic and courageous. Puts heart into every effort and likes to lead from the front.
The shape of her chart
In her chart, her mind, her heart, her optimism, her independence and her intensity (Mercury, Venus, Jupiter, Uranus and Pluto) gather in Virgo, and that part of life draws her attention first. No air at all, so stepping back to talk a thing through takes deliberate effort.
