What her chart says about her

  1. Who she was

    Sun in Aquarius, the Free Thinker

    Original, independent and fair. Thinks about how things could work better for everyone. The self she knew and the image others saw drifted apart at times, and she worked to keep hold of the real one.

    The Sun square Neptune (almost exact at 0.3°)

  2. What she needed

    Moon in Aquarius or Pisces, the Cool Head

    Calm in a crisis, private about feelings. Comfort comes from friendship, ideas and space of her own.

    For a birth after 2:57 p.m., her Moon was in Pisces.

  3. How she loved

    Venus in Capricorn, the Loyal Partner

    Loves seriously and steadily. Shows love through commitment and reliability. She loved with depth and loyalty, and the bonds she formed changed both people.

    Venus trine Pluto (close at 2.5°)

  4. How she thought

    Mercury in Aquarius, the Inventor

    Clever, unusual and ahead of the moment. Loves ideas for their own sake and thinks about everyone, not only the few. Facts and dreams blurred together in her mind: wonderful for stories, harder when details mattered.

    Mercury square Neptune (close at 1.9°)

  5. What drove her

    Mars in Capricorn, the Achiever

    Determined, controlled and built for the long climb. Works patiently toward the top. Controlled force: she worked with patience and grit, and she finished what she started.

    Mars conjunction Saturn (close at 1.2°)

  6. The shape of her chart

    In her chart, her heart, her drive and her discipline (Venus, Mars and Saturn) gather in Capricorn, and that part of life drew her attention first. The weight of her chart sits in earth signs: the practical and the solid.
