What her chart says about her

  1. Who she is

    Sun in Sagittarius, the Explorer

    Restless in the best way. Wants to see more, learn more and say exactly what is on her mind. The self she knows and the image others see drift apart at times, and she works to keep hold of the real one.

  2. What she needs

    Moon in Capricorn or Aquarius, the Steady Hand

    Keeps feelings under control and feels safest when life is organised and secure. She loves hard and holds on hard, and letting go takes her a long time.

    The Moon opposition Pluto (close at 1.5°) · For a birth after 9:34 p.m., her Moon was in Aquarius.

  3. How she loves

    Venus in Sagittarius, the Adventurer

    Warm, adventurous and hard to fence in. Falls for laughter, big ideas and wide-open plans. Loyal in love: she chooses carefully, and what she builds with people lasts.

  4. How she thinks

    Mercury in Sagittarius, the Philosopher

    Thinks big and speaks frankly. Loves ideas, learning and talking about what things mean.

  5. What drives her

    Mars in Virgo, the Craftsperson

    Works carefully and precisely. Gets results through skill and attention to detail. Effort and restlessness keep catching each other off guard, and her plans change at short notice.

  6. The shape of her chart

    In her chart, her identity, her mind and her heart (the Sun, Mercury and Venus) gather in Sagittarius, and that part of life draws her attention first. The weight of her chart sits in fire signs: instinct and enthusiasm.
