What her chart says about her
Who she is
Sun in Aquarius, the Free Thinker
Independent, inventive and quietly idealistic. Asks why things are done this way and imagines a better one. Nothing about her is halfway: she insists on running her own life, and the struggle makes her formidable.
The Sun opposition Pluto (almost exact at 0.4°)
What she needs
Moon in Libra, the Peacemaker
Needs harmony, good company and fairness. Feels best when everyone is getting along.
How she loves
Venus in Aquarius, the Kindred Spirit
Loves friend-first. Falls for a mind, needs room to breathe, and is drawn to people who are a little different. Loyal in love: she chooses carefully, and what she builds with people lasts.
Venus sextile Saturn (close at 1.5°)
How she thinks
Mercury in Aquarius, the Inventor
Clever, unusual and ahead of the moment. Loves ideas for their own sake and thinks about everyone, not only the few. Her mind runs ahead of the conversation: she says the unexpected thing, and not everyone is ready to hear it.
Mercury opposition Uranus (wide at 3.1°)
What drives her
Mars in Taurus, the Stayer
Slow and sure. She does not rush, and she is hard to push off course. When to push and when to wait takes constant judging, and she learns timing the hard way.
Mars quincunx Saturn (almost exact at 0.9°)
The shape of her chart
