What her chart says about her

  1. Who she was

    Sun in Aries, the Pioneer

    Built to begin. Says yes before the plan is finished and gets everyone else moving. Nothing about her was halfway: she insisted on running her own life, and the struggle made her formidable.

    The Sun square Pluto (wide at 3.7°)

  2. What she needed

    Moon in Pisces, the Tide

    Feels the mood of a room from the doorway. Comfort comes from water, music, softness and kindness. Tenderness through and through: she needed beauty and affection the way others needed air.

    The Moon conjunction Venus (close at 1.0°)

  3. How she loved

    Venus in Pisces, the Tender Heart

    Loves selflessly and romantically. Sees the best in people and gives without counting. She loved the dream of a person, and the real one had to compete with it.

    Venus opposition Neptune (close at 2.0°)

  4. How she thought

    Mercury in Aries, the Spark

    A sharp, impatient mind. Cuts straight to the point and likes a good argument. A probing mind: she got to the bottom of things, and her words had power when she chose to use them.

    Mercury trine Pluto (wide at 6.4°)

  5. What drove her

    Mars in Capricorn, the Achiever

    Disciplined and steady. Plans the route, does the work and gets there in the end. Quick and inventive in action: she moved fast, broke with habit and made sudden changes work.

    Mars trine Uranus (close at 2.6°)

  6. The shape of her chart

    In her chart, her identity, her mind and her discipline (the Sun, Mercury and Saturn) gather in Aries, and that part of life drew her attention first. No air at all, so stepping back to talk a thing through took deliberate effort.
