What her chart says about her

  1. 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. The self she shows the world and the self she comes home to want different things, and she makes room for both.

    Calm, warm and steady. Feels safest with good food, soft things and a familiar routine, and makes everyone around her feel the same.

  4. How she thinks

    Mercury in Virgo, the Analyst

    Precise, practical and clever. Notices the detail everyone else missed. She doubts her own ideas before anyone else can, and so she checks every one twice.

    Mars in Aquarius, the Rebel

    Independent and inventive in action. Fights for the group, the future and a fairer way. She fights hard for what she wants, and her temper is part of her courage.
