What her chart says about her
Who she was
Sun in Taurus, the Gardener
Unhurried, warm and hard to rattle. Has a gift for comfort, beauty and making things that last. Independence came easily: she did things her own way, and people found it refreshing rather than rude.
The Sun sextile Uranus (almost exact at 0.5°)
What she needed
Moon in Libra, the Peacemaker
Feels most at peace when the people around her are at peace. Needs beauty, balance and someone to share things with. Her feelings ran deep and held steady: she came through hard times with more strength than she went in with.
The Moon trine Pluto (almost exact at 0.2°)
How she loved
Venus in Cancer, the Nurturer
Loves by caring and protecting. Wants a partner who feels like home. A graceful mind: she spoke kindly and well, and she knew how to say a hard thing gently.
Mercury sextile Venus (almost exact at 0.7°)
How she thought
Mercury in Taurus, the Careful Thinker
Thinks slowly and solidly. A mind, once made up, stays made up. A patient, exact mind: she chose every word, and her thinking got sharper with practice.
Mercury sextile Saturn (almost exact at 0.7°)
What drove her
Mars in Leo, the Leader
Confident, dramatic and courageous. Puts heart into every effort and likes to lead from the front. When to push and when to wait took constant judging, and she learned timing the hard way.
Mars quincunx Saturn (almost exact at 0.6°)
