What her chart says about her
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. Born original: her identity and her need for freedom are the same thing, and she surprises people, herself included.
The Sun conjunction Uranus (wide at 8.9°)
What she needs
Moon in Aquarius, the Cool Head
Needs freedom, friendship and room to think. Handles feelings by stepping back and making sense of them. Steady feelings: she keeps calm under strain, and she loves in ways that last.
The Moon sextile Saturn (almost exact at 0.7°)
How she loves
Venus in Virgo, the Quiet Romantic
Loves quietly and attentively. Shows care through thoughtful help and remembering the small things. Words with charm in them: she has an ear for a beautiful phrase, and people like listening to her.
Mercury conjunction Venus (wide at 3.7°)
How she thinks
Mercury in Virgo, the Analyst
A careful, exact mind. Spots the flaw, fixes the plan and gets the wording just right. She doubts her own ideas before anyone else can, and so she checks every one twice.
Mercury square Saturn (wide at 6.2°)
What drives her
Mars in Virgo, the Craftsperson
Skilful, hardworking and modest. Gets ahead through practice, precision and getting the details right. She works for ideals: her drive comes alive for a cause, a role or a dream.
Mars sextile Neptune (almost exact at 0.9°)
The shape of her chart
