What her chart says about her
Who she is
Sun in Sagittarius, the Explorer
Curious, honest and always after the next horizon: a trip, a big idea, a better answer. Imagination and identity work together: she can become a character, a mood or an idea, and make others believe in it.
The Sun sextile Neptune (almost exact at 0.3°)
What she needs
Moon in Taurus, the Hearth
Even-tempered and hard to unsettle. Needs calm, touch and things that stay the same.
How she loves
Venus in Capricorn, the Loyal Partner
Loves seriously and steadily. Shows love through commitment and reliability. Love feels like something to be earned, and she holds back until she is sure of it.
Venus opposition Saturn (wide at 5.4°)
How she thinks
Mercury in Sagittarius, the Philosopher
Frank, curious and full of opinions. Thinks in big pictures and loves a debate about what really matters. 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 (close at 1.7°)
What drives her
Mars in Sagittarius, the Champion
Adventurous and principled. Throws herself behind big causes and what is right. She works for ideals: her drive comes alive for a cause, a role or a dream.
Mars sextile Neptune (wide at 3.9°)
The shape of her chart
In her chart, her identity, her mind and her drive (the Sun, Mercury and Mars) gather in Sagittarius, and that part of life draws her attention first. In her chart, fire signs hold the most planets: instinct and enthusiasm.
