What her chart says about her

  1. Who she is

    Sun in Aries, the Pioneer

    Built to begin. Says yes before the plan is finished and gets everyone else moving. Charm comes naturally: taste, warmth and a love of beautiful things are close to her core.

    The Sun conjunction Venus (almost exact at 0.1°)

  2. What she needs

    Moon in Aries or Pisces, the Quick Flame

    Quick to feel and quick to forgive. Needs to say it, do something about it and move on. Her moods change without warning, and she wants closeness and room to breathe at the same time.

    The Moon square Uranus (almost exact at 0.5°) · For a birth before 2:51 a.m., her Moon was in Pisces.

  3. How she loves

    Venus in Aries, the Chaser

    Loves boldly and makes the first move. Wants excitement, honesty and a partner with spirit. Charm and desire work together: she knows what she wants in love and how to win it.

    Venus sextile Mars (almost exact at 0.4°)

  4. How she thinks

    Mercury in Aries, the Spark

    Thinks fast and speaks plainly. Ideas arrive whole and leave her mouth a second later. Words with charm in them: she has an ear for a beautiful phrase, and people like listening to her.

    Mercury conjunction Venus (almost exact at 0.8°)

  5. What drives her

    Mars in Gemini, the Multitasker

    Quick, clever and busy. Gets things done through talk, ideas and juggling several jobs. Her purpose and her drive work together: once she decides on something, she moves on it fast.

    The Sun sextile Mars (almost exact at 0.3°)

  6. The shape of her chart

    In her chart, her discipline, her independence and her imagination (Saturn, Uranus and Neptune) gather in Capricorn, and that part of life draws her attention first. The weight of her chart sits in fire signs: instinct and enthusiasm.
