What her chart says about her

  1. Who she is

    Sun in Virgo, the Fixer

    Sharp-eyed and quietly kind. Sees how a thing could work better and rolls up her sleeves to fix it.

  2. What she needs

    Moon in Capricorn, the Steady Hand

    Handles feelings by getting on with things. Needs security, respect and quiet proof of being needed.

  3. How she loves

    Venus in Leo, the Romantic

    Loves with warmth, pride and a generous heart. Wants romance, admiration and loyalty in return. Words with charm in them: she has an ear for a beautiful phrase, and people like listening to her.

    Mercury conjunction Venus (wide at 5.4°)

  4. How she thinks

    Mercury in Leo, the Storyteller

    Confident, warm and persuasive. Likes an audience and has the words to keep one. Facts and dreams blur together in her mind: wonderful for stories, harder when details matter.

    Mercury square Neptune (almost exact at 0.9°)

  5. What drives her

    Mars in Leo, the Leader

    Confident, dramatic and courageous. Puts heart into every effort and likes to lead from the front. Her drive and her discipline work together easily: she can push hard and keep going.

    Mars trine Saturn (close at 2.5°)

  6. The shape of her chart

    In her chart, her identity, her independence and her intensity (the Sun, Uranus and Pluto) gather in Virgo, and that part of life draws her attention first. No air at all, so stepping back to talk a thing through takes deliberate effort.
