Shelley Winters’ birth chart

What her chart says about her

1. Who she was

   ☉Sun in Leo, the Bright One

   Big-hearted and bright. Brings warmth into a room and loves to see other people do well. Optimism at the centre of her: she expected things to go well, and that confidence won people over.

   The Sun conjunction Jupiter (close at 2.7°)

2. What she needed

   ☽Moon in Libra or Scorpio, the Peacemaker

   Unsettled by conflict and soothed by kindness. Needs good company and a sense that things are fair.

   For a birth after 11:13 p.m., her Moon was in Scorpio.

3. How she loved

   ♀Venus in Virgo, the Quiet Romantic

   Modest in love and devoted to the bone. Proves feelings through actions rather than speeches. She loved with depth and loyalty, and the bonds she formed changed both people.

   Venus sextile Pluto (almost exact at 0.4°)

4. How she thought

   ☿Mercury in Leo, the Storyteller

   Confident, warm and persuasive. Likes an audience and has the words to keep one. A poet’s mind: she heard what went unsaid, and her best ideas came from somewhere hard to explain.

   Mercury conjunction Neptune (wide at 4.5°)

5. What drove her

   ♂Mars in Scorpio, the Strategist

   Intense, strategic and relentless. Keeps a goal close and doesn’t let it go. She fought hard for what she wanted, and her temper was part of her courage.

   The Sun square Mars (wide at 5.9°)

6. The shape of her chart

   In her chart, her identity, her mind, her optimism and her imagination (the Sun, Mercury, Jupiter and Neptune) gather in Leo, and that part of life drew her attention first. Most of her planets are in fire signs: instinct and enthusiasm.
