What her chart says about her
Who she is
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. She fights hard for what she wants, and her temper is part of her courage.

Slow to start and impossible to stop. She works steadily, builds things to last and does not give up under pressure. A quick, direct mind: she makes decisions fast and says what she means.
