What her chart says about her
Who she is
Sun in Sagittarius, the Explorer
Restless in the best way. Wants to see more, learn more and say exactly what is on her mind. Her purpose and her drive work together: once she decides on something, she moves on it fast.
The Sun sextile Mars (almost exact at 0.2°)
What she needs
Moon in Virgo or Leo, the Mender
Shows feeling in practical ways: a fixed problem, a remembered detail, a cup of tea at the right time.
For a birth before 10:00 a.m., her Moon was in Leo.
How she loves
Venus in Aquarius, the Kindred Spirit
Loves as a friend first. Values honesty, freedom and a partner who is fully her own person. Affection comes to her with generosity attached: her heart and her optimism help each other.
Venus trine Jupiter (close at 1.8°)
How she thinks
Mercury in Sagittarius, the Philosopher
Frank, curious and full of opinions. Thinks in big pictures and loves a debate about what really matters. Her mind and her identity are close together: she speaks as she thinks, and her ideas are part of who she is.
The Sun conjunction Mercury (close at 2.4°)
What drives her
Mars in Libra, the Negotiator
Works best alongside others. Prefers diplomacy to battle, and fights for justice when it counts. Drive with the brakes on: she wants to move, something holds her back, and the friction makes her tough.
Mars opposition Saturn (almost exact at 0.5°)
The shape of her chart
In her chart, her drive, her optimism and her independence (Mars, Jupiter and Uranus) gather in Libra, and that part of life draws her attention first. The weight of her chart sits in air signs: ideas and people.
