What her chart says about her

  1. Who she is

    Sun in Leo, the Bright One

    Warm, generous and made to be seen. Makes a room feel brighter and wants the people in it to shine too. More sensitive to criticism than it looks. She reaches for more than one life can hold: big plans, big promises, and a habit of saying yes before counting the hours.

    The Sun square Jupiter (close at 2.7°)

  2. What she needs

    Moon in Cancer, the Nest-Maker

    Feels everything and holds on to what matters. Needs a place to come home to and people who stay. Tenderness through and through: she needs beauty and affection the way others need air.

    The Moon conjunction Venus (wide at 3.5°)

  3. How she loves

    Venus in Cancer, the Nurturer

    Loves by caring and protecting. Wants a partner who feels like home. Affection and independence need constant trading off, and she keeps renegotiating the terms of her relationships.

    Venus quincunx Uranus (almost exact at 0.1°)

  4. How she thinks

    Mercury in Cancer, the Remembering Mind

    A mind tuned to people. Hears what sits under the words and answers it gently. A probing mind: she gets to the bottom of things, and her words have power when she chooses to use them.

    Mercury trine Pluto (wide at 4.4°)

  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 drive and her discipline work together easily: she can push hard and keep going.

    Mars trine Saturn (wide at 3.5°)

  6. The shape of her chart

    In her chart, her feelings, her mind and her heart (the Moon, Mercury and Venus) gather in Cancer, and that part of life draws her attention first. No air at all, so stepping back to talk a thing through takes deliberate effort.
