What her chart says about her

  1. Who she is

    Sun in Cancer, the Protector

    Tender under a careful shell. Makes a home anywhere and guards the people inside it. Her confidence comes easily and spreads: she thinks big, and other people want to come along.

    The Sun trine Jupiter (wide at 3.5°)

  2. What she needs

    Moon in Virgo or Libra, the Mender

    Feels calm when things are in order and useful. Shows care through small, practical help.

    For a birth after 5:27 p.m., her Moon was in Libra.

  3. How she loves

    Venus in Virgo, the Quiet Romantic

    Loves quietly and attentively. Shows care through thoughtful help and remembering the small things. Loyal in love: she chooses carefully, and what she builds with people lasts.

    Venus trine Saturn (almost exact at 0.1°)

  4. How she thinks

    Mercury in Leo, the Storyteller

    Speaks with flair and conviction. Thinks in bold strokes and tells a story everyone remembers. She thinks in leaps: brilliant, contrary and quick to get bored with the obvious.

    Mercury conjunction Uranus (almost exact at 0.2°)

  5. What drives her

    Mars in Leo, the Leader

    Full of fire and pride. Works hardest for a cause close to her heart and wants the effort to be seen. She takes on more than any one person can, and her boldness runs ahead of her plans.

    Mars square Jupiter (close at 2.4°)

  6. The shape of her chart

    In her chart, her mind, her drive and her independence (Mercury, Mars and Uranus) gather in Leo, and that part of life draws her attention first. No air at all, so stepping back to talk a thing through takes deliberate effort.
