What her chart says about her

  1. Who she was

    Sun in Capricorn, the Architect

    Serious, capable and ambitious. Builds a life step by step, and gets more playful and lighter with age. Independence came easily: she did things her own way, and people found it refreshing rather than rude.

    The Sun sextile Uranus (close at 2.7°)

  2. What she needed

    Moon in Scorpio, the Vault

    Feels everything strongly and privately. Needs trust, loyalty and honesty above all. What comforted her and what she loved were different things, so her heart and her moods kept negotiating.

    The Moon square Venus (close at 2.0°)

  3. How she loved

    Venus in Aquarius, the Kindred Spirit

    Unconventional in love. Drawn to the original and the independent, and needs room inside closeness. Her taste and her appetite for more needed adjusting: she kept learning what was enough.

    Venus quincunx Jupiter (close at 1.1°)

  4. How she thought

    Mercury in Capricorn, the Planner

    A disciplined, realistic mind. Thinks in steps, plans for the long run and says only what is needed. A generous, wide-ranging mind: she learned easily, told a good story and saw the big picture.

    Mercury trine Jupiter (exact at 0.0°)

  5. What drove her

    Mars in Capricorn, the Achiever

    Disciplined and steady. Plans the route, does the work and gets there in the end. A fierce will: she met opposition head on, and a fight brought out her full strength.

    Mars square Pluto (close at 1.7°)

  6. The shape of her chart

    In her chart, her identity, her mind and her drive (the Sun, Mercury and Mars) gather in Capricorn, and that part of life drew her attention first. Most of her planets are in earth signs: the practical and the solid.
