What her chart says about her
Who she was
Sun in Cancer, the Protector
Warm, loyal and fiercely caring. Happiest looking after the people who feel like family. A quiet strength: under pressure she grew more focused, and she knew how to start over.
The Sun trine Pluto (almost exact at 0.2°)
What she needed
Moon in Aries, 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.
How she loved
Venus in Leo, the Romantic
Loves with warmth, pride and a generous heart. Wants romance, admiration and loyalty in return. A graceful mind: she spoke kindly and well, and she knew how to say a hard thing gently.
Mercury sextile Venus (close at 1.1°)
How she thought
Mercury in Gemini, the Quick Wit
A restless, clever mind. Loves words, news and the fun of a good exchange. A quick, original mind: ideas arrived in flashes, and she saw answers others missed.
Mercury trine Uranus (wide at 6.0°)
What drove her
Mars in Taurus, the Stayer
Steady, strong and very patient. She kept going long after others stopped. Drive and dreams mixed uneasily: the goal was clear to her, and the way to it harder to see.
Mars opposition Neptune (almost exact at 0.9°)
