What her chart says about her

  1. Who she is

    Sun in Virgo, the Fixer

    Notices what is out of place and knows how to make it better. Shows love by being useful, and has a dry, quick humour that surprises people. The self she knows and the image others see drift apart at times, and she works to keep hold of the real one.

    The Sun square Neptune (wide at 5.1°)

  2. What she needs

    Moon in Taurus or Gemini, the Hearth

    Even-tempered and hard to unsettle. Needs calm, touch and things that stay the same.

    For a birth after 1:26 p.m., her Moon was in Gemini.

  3. How she loves

    Venus in Libra, the Sweetheart

    Made for partnership. Loves beauty, fairness and romance. Charm and desire work together: she knows what she wants in love and how to win it.

    Venus sextile Mars (close at 1.1°)

  4. How she thinks

    Mercury in Virgo, the Analyst

    Clever, methodical and useful. Turns a muddle into a list and the list into results. A generous, wide-ranging mind: she learns easily, tells a good story and sees the big picture.

    Mercury trine Jupiter (close at 2.4°)

  5. What drives her

    Mars in Sagittarius, the Champion

    Adventurous and principled. Throws herself behind big causes and what is right. She fights hard for what she wants, and her temper is part of her courage.

    The Sun square Mars (wide at 6.2°)

  6. The shape of her chart

    In her chart, her drive, her independence and her imagination (Mars, Uranus and Neptune) gather in Sagittarius, and that part of life draws her attention first. In her chart, earth signs hold the most planets: the practical and the solid.
