What her chart says about her
Who she was
Sun in Cancer, the Protector
Tender under a careful shell. Makes a home anywhere and guards the people inside it. Her purpose and her feelings were on the same side: the life she chose and the comfort she needed went together.
The Sun trine the Moon (almost exact at 0.4°)
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. She picked up what others felt before a word was said, and her compassion reached far.
The Moon trine Neptune (close at 1.3°)
How she loved
Venus in Virgo, the Quiet Romantic
Shows love through care, help and attention to small things. Affection came to her with generosity attached: her heart and her optimism helped each other.
Venus sextile Jupiter (wide at 3.3°)
How she thought
Mercury in Leo, the Storyteller
Speaks with warmth and confidence and tells a great story. Thinks in big, bold ideas. Big ideas and loose details: she thought on a large scale, and the small print was where things got away from her.
Mercury square Jupiter (close at 2.0°)
What drove her
Mars in Taurus, the Stayer
Slow and sure. She did not rush, and she was hard to push off course. Stamina and willpower: she kept going long after others stopped, and she did her best work under pressure.
Mars sextile Pluto (close at 2.7°)
The shape of her chart
Mars is the hub of her chart: it takes part in six of its aspects, more than any other body, so her drive touched everything else in it. Most of her planets are in earth and water signs: the practical and the solid, and feeling and intuition.
The sky the day she was born
The Moon
Ginger Rogers was born five days after a full Moon. At noon that day the Moon was 75% lit, in Pisces. Tonight’s Moon
The day
