What her chart says about her

  1. Who she is

    Sun in Scorpio, the Detective

    Intense, private and loyal. Wants the real story, not the polite one, and gives all or nothing. Funnier than people expect, and kinder in private than in public. Intensity at the centre: she wants the whole truth about everything, herself first, and she remakes herself more than once to reach it.

    The Sun conjunction Pluto (almost exact at 0.5°)

  2. What she needs

    Moon in Scorpio, the Vault

    Feels everything strongly and privately. Needs trust, loyalty and honesty above all.

  3. How she loves

    Venus in Sagittarius, the Adventurer

    Loves freedom, laughter and shared adventures. Wants a partner who is also a travel companion. Love at first sight, and freedom after it: the different and the new win her heart.

    Venus conjunction Uranus (wide at 4.7°)

  4. How she thinks

    Mercury in Scorpio, the Investigator

    A penetrating mind. Reads people well, speaks carefully and can tell when something is being hidden. A quick, direct mind: she makes decisions fast and says what she means.

    Mercury sextile Mars (close at 2.3°)

  5. What drives her

    Mars in Capricorn, the Achiever

    Determined, controlled and built for the long climb. Works patiently toward the top. Her drive and her discipline work together easily: she can push hard and keep going.

    Mars sextile Saturn (close at 2.6°)

  6. The shape of her chart

    In her chart, her identity, her feelings, her mind, her discipline and her intensity (the Sun, the Moon, Mercury, Saturn and Pluto) gather in Scorpio, and that part of life draws her attention first. No air at all, so stepping back to talk a thing through takes deliberate effort.
