What her chart says about her

  1. Who she is

    Sun in Gemini, the Messenger

    A mind that won’t sit still. Lights up at a new idea and loves passing it on before it has cooled. Born original: her identity and her need for freedom are the same thing, and she surprises people, herself included.

    The Sun conjunction Uranus (wide at 6.8°)

  2. What she needs

    Moon in Leo or Cancer, the Warm Heart

    Wears her heart where people can see it. Needs warmth, praise and a little attention, and gives all three back.

    For a birth before 5:37 a.m., her Moon was in Cancer.

  3. How she loves

    Venus in Gemini, the Charmer

    Playful, curious and charming in love. Wants variety, banter and a mind to match. A romantic with an artist’s eye: she sees the beauty in people and makes it visible to others.

    Venus trine Neptune (close at 1.0°)

  4. How she thinks

    Mercury in Cancer, the Remembering Mind

    Thinks through feeling and memory. Listens well and remembers exactly how something was said. A quick, direct mind: she makes decisions fast and says what she means.

    Mercury sextile Mars (almost exact at 0.4°)

  5. What drives her

    Mars in Taurus, the Stayer

    Slow and sure. She does not rush, and she is hard to push off course. She takes on more than any one person can, and her boldness runs ahead of her plans.

    Mars opposition Jupiter (wide at 4.4°)

  6. The shape of her chart

    In her chart, her identity, her heart and her independence (the Sun, Venus and Uranus) gather in Gemini, and that part of life draws her attention first. Most of her planets are in air signs: ideas and people.
