What her chart says about her
Who she is
Sun in Leo, the Bright One
Big-hearted and bright. Brings warmth into a room and loves to see other people do well. Independence comes easily: she does things her own way, and people find it refreshing rather than rude.
The Sun trine Uranus (wide at 6.7°)
What she needs
Moon in Gemini, the Talker
Feels better after talking it through. Needs conversation, variety and something interesting to think about.
How she loves
Venus in Virgo, the Quiet Romantic
Shows love through care, help and attention to small things. Words with charm in them: she has an ear for a beautiful phrase, and people like listening to her.
Mercury conjunction Venus (wide at 4.4°)
How she thinks
Mercury in Virgo, the Analyst
A careful, exact mind. Spots the flaw, fixes the plan and gets the wording just right. Her mind runs ahead of the conversation: she says the unexpected thing, and not everyone is ready to hear it.
Mercury square Uranus (exact at 0.0°)
What drives her
Mars in Cancer, the Defender
Driven by feeling. Goes the furthest for something personal, and guards home fiercely. Her drive and her imagination speak different languages: she goes after something before she can say what it is.
Mars quincunx Neptune (close at 2.6°)
