What her chart says about her
Who she was
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 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 0.8°)
What she needed
Moon in Gemini, the Talker
Light on her feet emotionally. Feels at home in a good conversation and gets restless in silence. What comforted her and what she loved were different things, so her heart and her moods kept negotiating.
The Moon square Venus (close at 1.1°)
How she loved
Venus in Virgo, the Quiet Romantic
Modest in love and devoted to the bone. Proves feelings through actions rather than speeches. A generous heart: love and good company came to her easily, and she shared both.
Venus conjunction Jupiter (close at 1.0°)
How she thought
Mercury in Virgo, the Analyst
Clever, methodical and useful. Turns a muddle into a list and the list into results. Words with charm in them: she had an ear for a beautiful phrase, and people liked listening to her.
Mercury conjunction Venus (wide at 6.0°)
What drove her
Mars in Leo, the Leader
Bold, proud and full of drive. Wants to lead, works hardest on what is dear to her, and wants to be recognised for it.
The shape of her chart
In her chart, her mind, her heart, her optimism, her independence and her intensity (Mercury, Venus, Jupiter, Uranus and Pluto) gather in Virgo, and that part of life drew her attention first. Most of her planets are in earth signs: the practical and the solid.
