What her chart says about her
Who she is
Sun in Sagittarius, the Explorer
Curious, honest and always after the next horizon: a trip, a big idea, a better answer. Her confidence comes easily and spreads: she thinks big, and other people want to come along.
The Sun sextile Jupiter (close at 3.0°)
What she needs
Moon in Cancer or Leo, the Nest-Maker
Feels everything and holds on to what matters. Needs a place to come home to and people who stay. She puts people at ease without trying: kindness and charm come from the same place.
The Moon trine Venus (close at 1.4°) · For a birth after 7:00 p.m., her Moon was in Leo.
How she loves
Venus in Scorpio, the Devotee
All or nothing in love. Feels intensely and stays loyal to the very end. Serious about love: she gives affection slowly, and once given, it stays given.
Venus conjunction Saturn (wide at 4.0°)
How she thinks
Mercury in Sagittarius, the Philosopher
Frank, curious and full of opinions. Thinks in big pictures and loves a debate about what really matters. Serious thoughts: she says less than she knows, and what she says holds up.
Mercury conjunction Saturn (close at 1.2°)
What drives her
Mars in Libra, the Negotiator
Gets things done through people, charm and fairness. Prefers teamwork to a fight, and fights hardest for others. Quick and inventive in action: she moves fast, breaks with habit and makes sudden changes work.
Mars sextile Uranus (wide at 4.2°)
The shape of her chart
In her chart, her identity, her mind, her discipline and her independence (the Sun, Mercury, Saturn and Uranus) gather in Sagittarius, and that part of life draws her attention first. In her chart, fire signs hold the most planets: instinct and enthusiasm.
