What her chart says about her

  1. Who she is

    Sun in Leo, the Bright One

    Big-hearted and bright. Brings warmth into a room and loves to see other people do well. Her confidence comes easily and spreads: she thinks big, and other people want to come along.

  2. What she needs

    Moon in Libra, the Peacemaker

    Needs harmony, good company and fairness. Feels best when everyone is getting along. Big feelings and a big heart: her good moods lift everyone near, and she gives comfort freely.

    The Moon conjunction Jupiter (close at 1.9°)

  3. How she loves

    Venus in Virgo, the Quiet Romantic

    Loves quietly and attentively. Shows care through thoughtful help and remembering the small things. Charm and desire work together: she knows what she wants in love and how to win it.

  4. How she thinks

    Mercury in Leo, the Storyteller

    Confident, warm and persuasive. Likes an audience and has the words to keep one. A patient, exact mind: she chooses every word, and her thinking gets sharper with practice.

    Mercury sextile Saturn (almost exact at 0.3°)

  5. What drives her

    Mars in Cancer, the Defender

    Driven by feeling. Goes the furthest for something personal, and guards home fiercely. Quick feelings and a quick temper: she reacts first, and her courage comes from the same place as her flashes of anger.

    In her chart, her feelings, her optimism, her discipline and her intensity (the Moon, Jupiter, Saturn and Pluto) gather in Libra, and that part of life draws her attention first. Most of her planets are in air signs: ideas and people.
