What her chart says about her
Who she is
Sun in Gemini, the Messenger
Quick, curious and good company. Collects facts, friends and stories, and can talk to anyone about almost anything. A quiet strength: under pressure she grows more focused, and she knows how to start over.
The Sun sextile Pluto (close at 2.8°)
What she needs
Moon in Capricorn or Sagittarius, the Steady Hand
Handles feelings by getting on with things. Needs security, respect and quiet proof of being needed. Her head and her feelings argue: she knows what she thinks before she knows what she feels, or the other way round.
The Moon opposition Mercury (almost exact at 0.1°) · For a birth before 1:52 a.m., her Moon was in Sagittarius.
How she loves
Venus in Taurus, the Keeper
Slow to fall and slow to leave. Wants a love that feels safe, warm and real. She loves too much of a good thing: pleasure, praise and grand gestures run past what one life can use.
Venus opposition Jupiter (almost exact at 0.1°)
How she thinks
Mercury in Cancer, the Remembering Mind
A mind tuned to people. Hears what sits under the words and answers it gently. Facts and dreams blur together in her mind: wonderful for stories, harder when details matter.
Mercury square Neptune (close at 2.9°)
What drives her
Mars in Taurus, the Stayer
Slow and sure. She does not rush, and she is hard to push off course. A fierce will: she meets opposition head on, and a fight brings out her full strength.
Mars square Pluto (almost exact at 0.2°)
The shape of her chart
Neptune is the hub of her chart: it takes part in five of its aspects, more than any other body, so her imagination touches everything else in it.
