What her chart says about her
Who she was
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. Her purpose and her drive worked together: once she decided on something, she moved on it fast.
The Sun sextile Mars (close at 2.1°)
What she needed
Moon in Cancer, the Nest-Maker
Feels everything and needs a safe home and close people. Remembers every kindness. Intense, private feelings: she kept an inner life few people saw, and she guarded it well.
The Moon conjunction Pluto (almost exact at 0.7°)
How she loved
Venus in Libra, the Sweetheart
Made for partnership. Loves beauty, fairness and romance. She loved too much of a good thing: pleasure, praise and grand gestures ran past what one life could use.
Venus square Jupiter (almost exact at 0.6°)
How she thought
Mercury in Virgo, the Analyst
Precise, practical and clever. Notices the detail everyone else missed. Sharp words and a sharp mind: she argued well, sometimes too well, and a debate was a kind of sport to her.
Mercury square Mars (close at 1.0°)
What drove her
Mars in Gemini, the Multitasker
Restless, quick and clever. Does several things at once and wins with words.
