What her chart says about her

  1. Who she is

    Sun in Pisces, the Dreamer

    Imaginative, gentle and very aware of how others feel. People leave a conversation with her feeling understood. Purpose and patience work as a team: she builds slowly and gets better with every year.

    The Sun sextile Saturn (almost exact at 0.7°)

  2. What she needs

    Moon in Aries, the Quick Flame

    Quick to feel and quick to forgive. Needs to say it, do something about it and move on. Tenderness through and through: she needs beauty and affection the way others need air.

    The Moon conjunction Venus (almost exact at 0.1°)

  3. How she loves

    Venus in Aries, the Chaser

    Falls fast and loves the chase. Wants passion, honesty and a partner who keeps up. A graceful mind: she speaks kindly and well, and she knows how to say a hard thing gently.

    Mercury sextile Venus (almost exact at 0.1°)

  4. How she thinks

    Mercury in Aquarius, the Inventor

    Original and future-minded. Thinks in systems and finds new ways to do old things. Her words have force: she speaks to persuade, and she keeps her own counsel until the right moment.

    Mercury square Pluto (almost exact at 0.7°)

  5. What drives her

    Mars in Sagittarius, the Champion

    Adventurous and principled. Throws herself behind big causes and what is right. Electric: she acts on impulse, loves a risk and refuses to be told what to do.

    Mars conjunction Uranus (close at 1.4°)

  6. The shape of her chart

    In her chart, her feelings, her heart and her optimism (the Moon, Venus and Jupiter) gather in Aries, and that part of life draws her attention first. The weight of her chart sits in fire signs: instinct and enthusiasm.
