What her chart says about her

  1. Who she was

    Sun in Capricorn, the Architect

    Patient and determined. Plays the long game, earns respect slowly, and grows warmer and more playful with the years. Nothing about her was halfway: she insisted on running her own life, and the struggle made her formidable.

    The Sun opposition Pluto (close at 1.6°)

  2. What she needed

    Moon in Gemini, the Talker

    Sorts out feelings by putting them into words. Needs company, news and a change of scene. She put people at ease without trying: kindness and charm came from the same place.

    The Moon trine Venus (almost exact at 0.6°)

  3. How she loved

    Venus in Aquarius, the Kindred Spirit

    Loves as a friend first. Values honesty, freedom and a partner who is fully her own person. A graceful mind: she spoke kindly and well, and she knew how to say a hard thing gently.

    Mercury sextile Venus (close at 2.3°)

  4. How she thought

    Mercury in Sagittarius, the Philosopher

    A wide-ranging mind. Learns by asking, travelling and following a question as far as it goes. Her head and her feelings argued: she knew what she thought before she knew what she felt, or the other way round.

    The Moon opposition Mercury (close at 1.7°)

  5. What drove her

    Mars in Sagittarius, the Champion

    Energetic and bold, driven by belief. Aims high and sets off with enthusiasm. Charm and desire worked together: she knew what she wanted in love and how to win it.

    Venus sextile Mars (wide at 4.4°)

  6. The shape of her chart

    In her chart, her mind, her drive and her optimism (Mercury, Mars and Jupiter) gather in Sagittarius, and that part of life drew her attention first. Most of her planets are in air signs: ideas and people.
