What her chart says about her

  1. Who she is

    Sun in Leo, the Bright One

    Big-hearted and bright. Brings warmth into a room and loves to see other people do well. She keeps redrawing the line between the life she has and the life she imagines.

    The Sun quincunx Neptune (close at 1.5°)

  2. What she needs

    Moon in Virgo, the Mender

    Shows feeling in practical ways: a fixed problem, a remembered detail, a cup of tea at the right time. She thinks with her feelings: memory, mood and wit come together, and her words give away what she feels.

    The Moon conjunction Mercury (almost exact at 0.5°)

  3. How she loves

    Venus in Cancer, the Nurturer

    Loves tenderly and protectively. Wants closeness, family and a feeling of belonging. She loves too much of a good thing: pleasure, praise and grand gestures run past what one life can use.

    Venus opposition Jupiter (almost exact at 0.1°)

  4. How she thinks

    Mercury in Virgo, the Analyst

    Clever, methodical and useful. Turns a muddle into a list and the list into results. She thinks in pictures and music: her words carry a mood, and her imagination gives her ideas colour.

    Mercury trine Neptune (wide at 4.7°)

  5. What drives her

    Mars in Cancer, the Defender

    Driven by feeling. Goes the furthest for something personal, and guards home fiercely. Magnetic: affection and desire come together in her, and people notice.

    Venus conjunction Mars (wide at 6.2°)

  6. The shape of her chart

    Saturn is the hub of her chart: it takes part in five of its aspects, more than any other body, so her discipline touches everything else in it. Most of her planets are in earth signs: the practical and the solid.
