What her chart says about her

  1. Who she is

    Sun in Aquarius, the Free Thinker

    A free mind with a strong sense of fairness. Friendly to everyone and hard to pin down. Self-belief comes slowly and has to be earned, one result at a time, and every result counts.

    The Sun opposition Saturn (almost exact at 0.3°)

  2. What she needs

    Moon in Cancer or Leo, the Nest-Maker

    Tender, protective and sensitive to mood. Comfort comes from family, old friends and familiar rooms. Quick feelings and a quick temper: she reacts first, and her courage comes from the same place as her flashes of anger.

    The Moon opposition Mars (close at 1.3°) · For a birth after 7:12 p.m., her Moon was in Leo.

  3. How she loves

    Venus in Aries or Pisces, the Chaser

    Falls fast and loves the chase. Wants passion, honesty and a partner who keeps up.

    For a birth before 12:55 a.m., her Venus was in Pisces.

  4. How she thinks

    Mercury in Capricorn, the Planner

    A disciplined, realistic mind. Thinks in steps, plans for the long run and says only what is needed. A generous, wide-ranging mind: she learns easily, tells a good story and sees the big picture.

    Mercury trine Jupiter (close at 2.5°)

  5. What drives her

    Mars in Capricorn, the Achiever

    Determined, controlled and built for the long climb. Works patiently toward the top. Big drive and big confidence: she goes after large goals, and her enthusiasm carries others along.

    Mars trine Jupiter (close at 3.0°)

  6. The shape of her chart

    The Sun is the hub of her chart: it takes part in five of its aspects, more than any other body, so her identity touches everything else in it.
