What her chart says about her
Who she is
Sun in Capricorn, the Architect
Responsible from an early age. Takes the climb seriously and has a dry humour that comes out once the work is done. The self she shows the world and the self she comes home to want different things, and she makes room for both.
The Sun square the Moon (close at 1.0°)
What she needs
Moon in Aries or Pisces, 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. She puts people at ease without trying: kindness and charm come from the same place.
The Moon sextile Venus (almost exact at 0.2°) · For a birth before 11:41 a.m., her Moon was in Pisces.
How she loves
Venus in Capricorn or Aquarius, the Loyal Partner
Careful with the heart and true once it is given. Shows love by being reliable year after year.
For a birth after 12:54 p.m., her Venus was in Aquarius.
How she thinks
Mercury in Capricorn, the Planner
Thinks practically and plans ahead. Speaks with authority and a dry sense of humour. She thinks in pictures and music: her words carry a mood, and her imagination gives her ideas colour.
Mercury sextile Neptune (wide at 3.2°)
What drives her
Mars in Capricorn, the Achiever
Ambitious, disciplined and patient. Works hard and climbs steadily. Stamina and willpower: she keeps going long after others stop, and she does her best work under pressure.
Mars trine Pluto (almost exact at 0.2°)
The shape of her chart
Mars is the hub of her chart: it takes part in six of its aspects, more than any other body, so her drive touches everything else in it. The weight of her chart sits in earth signs: the practical and the solid.
