What her chart says about her

  1. Who she is

    Sun in Cancer, the Protector

    Tender under a careful shell. Makes a home anywhere and guards the people inside it. Purpose and drive in one place: she is quick to start, quick to compete and hard to stop.

    The Sun conjunction Mars (close at 2.6°)

  2. What she needs

    Moon in Aquarius, the Cool Head

    Feels at a little distance and thinks feelings through. Needs friends, freedom and room to be different.

  3. How she loves

    Venus in Taurus, the Keeper

    Loves slowly, loyally and through the senses. Once someone is let in, they stay in, and they are cared for in ways they can touch. Love comes with high stakes: intense attachments, and a need to know exactly where she stands.

    Venus square Pluto (close at 1.0°)

  4. How she thinks

    Mercury in Leo, the Storyteller

    Speaks with warmth and confidence and tells a great story. Thinks in big, bold ideas.

  5. What drives her

    Mars in Cancer, the Defender

    Fights hardest for the people closest to her. Works best for a cause that feels personal. Electric: she acts on impulse, loves a risk and refuses to be told what to do.

    Mars conjunction Uranus (wide at 7.5°)

  6. The shape of her chart

    In her chart, her identity, her drive and her independence (the Sun, Mars and Uranus) gather in Cancer, and that part of life draws her attention first. The weight of her chart sits in air signs: ideas and people.
