What her chart says about her

  1. Who she is

    Sun in Aquarius, the Free Thinker

    Original, independent and fair. Thinks about how things could work better for everyone. Her mind and her identity are close together: she speaks as she thinks, and her ideas are part of who she is.

    The Sun conjunction Mercury (close at 1.6°)

  2. What she needs

    Moon in Capricorn or Sagittarius, the Steady Hand

    Steady, self-reliant and slow to show strain. Feels safe when there is a plan and something solid underfoot. She loves hard and holds on hard, and letting go takes her a long time.

    The Moon square Pluto (close at 1.2°) · For a birth before 5:54 a.m., her Moon was in Sagittarius.

  3. How she loves

    Venus in Capricorn, the Loyal Partner

    Loves with steadiness and staying power. Takes commitment seriously and builds something lasting. A generous heart: love and good company come to her easily, and she shares both.

    Venus conjunction Jupiter (almost exact at 0.7°)

  4. How she thinks

    Mercury in Aquarius, the Inventor

    Original and future-minded. Thinks in systems and finds new ways to do old things. A patient, exact mind: she chooses every word, and her thinking gets sharper with practice.

    Mercury trine Saturn (close at 1.2°)

  5. What drives her

    Mars in Sagittarius, the Champion

    Goes after big goals with enthusiasm and a strong sense of right. Quick and inventive in action: she moves fast, breaks with habit and makes sudden changes work.

    Mars sextile Uranus (close at 1.5°)

  6. The shape of her chart

    No water at all, so feelings come out in actions more than in words.
