What her chart says about her

  1. Who she is

    Sun in Aries, the Pioneer

    Direct, brave and impatient with waiting. At her best with a fresh start and a door nobody has opened yet. The self she knows and the image others see drift apart at times, and she works to keep hold of the real one.

    The Sun square Neptune (almost exact at 0.7°)

  2. What she needs

    Moon in Aries, the Quick Flame

    Feels things fast and hot, and gets over them fast too. Needs action, honesty and room to move. She puts people at ease without trying: kindness and charm come from the same place.

    The Moon sextile Venus (almost exact at 0.2°)

  3. How she loves

    Venus in Gemini, the Charmer

    Playful, curious and charming in love. Wants variety, banter and a mind to match.

  4. How she thinks

    Mercury in Taurus, the Careful Thinker

    Thinks things through at her own pace. Practical, patient and very hard to talk out of a view. A generous, wide-ranging mind: she learns easily, tells a good story and sees the big picture.

    Mercury trine Jupiter (close at 1.9°)

  5. What drives her

    Mars in Aries, the Trailblazer

    All drive, courage and quick starts. Goes first, acts fast, and is at her best when something needs doing now. She takes on more than any one person can, and her boldness runs ahead of her plans.

    Mars square Jupiter (almost exact at 0.7°)

  6. The shape of her chart

    In her chart, her identity, her feelings, her drive and her discipline (the Sun, the Moon, Mars and Saturn) gather in Aries, and that part of life draws her attention first. No water at all, so feelings come out in actions more than in words.
