What her chart says about her

  1. 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. She keeps redrawing the line between the life she has and the life she imagines.

    The Sun quincunx Neptune (almost exact at 0.8°)

  2. What she needs

    Moon in Capricorn or Sagittarius, the Steady Hand

    Steady, self-reliant and slow to show strain. Feels safe when there is a plan and something solid underfoot. Her head and her feelings argue: she knows what she thinks before she knows what she feels, or the other way round.

  3. How she loves

    Venus in Aries, the Chaser

    Falls quickly and wholeheartedly. Needs passion and a little challenge to stay interested. Love feels like something to be earned, and she holds back until she is sure of it.

  4. How she thinks

    Mercury in Cancer, the Remembering Mind

    Thinks with feeling and remembers everything that mattered. Speaks kindly and reads between the lines. A probing mind: she gets to the bottom of things, and her words have power when she chooses to use them.

  5. What drives her

    Mars in Leo, the Leader

    Confident, dramatic and courageous. Puts heart into every effort and likes to lead from the front. Her purpose and her drive work together: once she decides on something, she moves on it fast.
