What her chart says about her

  1. Who she is

    Sun in Scorpio, the Detective

    Private and powerful. Sees past the surface, keeps secrets well and does nothing halfway. Her mind and her identity are close together: she speaks as she thinks, and her ideas are part of who she is.

    The Sun conjunction Mercury (wide at 3.2°)

  2. What she needs

    Moon in Virgo or Leo, the Mender

    Settles worry by doing something useful. Needs order, routine and a job done well. Restless feelings: she feels most at home where things are new.

    The Moon conjunction Uranus (almost exact at 0.2°) · For a birth before 1:34 a.m., her Moon was in Leo.

  3. How she loves

    Venus in Scorpio, the Devotee

    Loves fiercely, privately and for keeps. Wants complete trust and a bond that goes beneath the surface. In love she wants tenderness and a chase at once, and her relationships are rarely calm.

    Venus square Mars (close at 1.7°)

  4. How she thinks

    Mercury in Scorpio, the Investigator

    Searching and sharp. Asks the question nobody else will and keeps the answers close. Sharp words and a sharp mind: she argues well, sometimes too well, and a debate is a kind of sport to her.

    Mercury square Mars (wide at 6.2°)

  5. What drives 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. Drive and dreams mix uneasily: the goal is clear to her, and the way to it harder to see.

    Mars square Neptune (wide at 3.9°)

  6. The shape of her chart

    In her chart, her identity, her mind, her heart and her imagination (the Sun, Mercury, Venus and Neptune) gather in Scorpio, and that part of life draws her attention first. Most of her planets are in water signs: feeling and intuition.
