What her chart says about her

  1. Who she was

    Sun in Taurus, the Gardener

    Steady as bedrock. Takes time to decide, and once something is chosen, it is kept and looked after. A quiet strength: under pressure she grew more focused, and she knew how to start over.

    The Sun sextile Pluto (close at 2.6°)

  2. What she needed

    Moon in Leo or Cancer, the Warm Heart

    Proud, warm and loyal in feeling. Needs to be appreciated, and makes loved ones feel like stars. Steady feelings: she kept calm under strain, and she loved in ways that lasted.

    The Moon trine Saturn (almost exact at 0.6°) · For a birth before 9:28 a.m., her Moon was in Cancer.

  3. How she loved

    Venus in Aries, the Chaser

    Loves boldly and makes the first move. Wants excitement, honesty and a partner with spirit. Love came with high stakes: intense attachments, and a need to know exactly where she stood.

  4. How she thought

    Mercury in Taurus, the Careful Thinker

    Thinks things through at her own pace. Practical, patient and very hard to talk out of a view. She thought in pictures and music: her words carried a mood, and her imagination gave her ideas colour.

    Mercury trine Neptune (close at 1.7°)

  5. What drove her

    Mars in Scorpio, the Strategist

    Intense, strategic and relentless. Keeps a goal close and doesn’t let it go. Her feelings turned straight into action: when something mattered, she did something about it.

    The Moon trine Mars (close at 1.6°)

  6. The shape of her chart

    In her chart, her identity, her mind and her independence (the Sun, Mercury and Uranus) gather in Taurus, and that part of life drew her attention first. No air at all, so stepping back to talk a thing through took deliberate effort.
