What her chart says about her
Who she is
Sun in Virgo, the Fixer
Notices what is out of place and knows how to make it better. Shows love by being useful, and has a dry, quick humour that surprises people. Independence comes easily: she does things her own way, and people find it refreshing rather than rude.
The Sun sextile Uranus (close at 2.6°)
What she needs
Moon in Scorpio, the Vault
Feels hard and shows little. Needs loyalty, privacy and a few people worth trusting completely.
How she loves
Venus in Leo, the Romantic
Grand in affection and fiercely loyal. Likes to celebrate the people dearest to her.
How she thinks
Mercury in Virgo, the Analyst
Precise, practical and clever. Notices the detail everyone else missed. Big ideas and loose details: she thinks on a large scale, and the small print is where things get away from her.
Mercury square Jupiter (almost exact at 0.6°)
What drives her
Mars in Leo, the Leader
Full of fire and pride. Works hardest for a cause close to her heart and wants the effort to be seen. Her drive and her discipline work together easily: she can push hard and keep going.
Mars sextile Saturn (wide at 3.3°)
The shape of her chart
In her chart, her heart, her drive and her intensity (Venus, Mars and Pluto) gather in Leo, and that part of life draws her attention first.
