What her chart says about her

  1. Who she is

    Sun in Scorpio, the Detective

    Private and powerful. Sees past the surface, keeps secrets well and does nothing halfway.

  2. What she needs

    Moon in Scorpio, the Vault

    Feels everything strongly and privately. Needs trust, loyalty and honesty above all.

  3. How she loves

    Venus in Libra, the Sweetheart

    Graceful, warm and drawn to harmony. Loves romance, beauty and a true partnership of equals. A graceful mind: she speaks kindly and well, and she knows how to say a hard thing gently.

    Mercury sextile Venus (almost exact at 0.6°)

  4. How she thinks

    Mercury in Sagittarius, the Philosopher

    Thinks big and speaks frankly. Loves ideas, learning and talking about what things mean. A poet’s mind: she hears what goes unsaid, and her best ideas come from somewhere hard to explain.

    Mercury conjunction Neptune (wide at 3.1°)

  5. What drives her

    Mars in Libra, the Negotiator

    Gets things done through people, charm and fairness. Prefers teamwork to a fight, and fights hardest for others. Electric: she acts on impulse, loves a risk and refuses to be told what to do.

    Mars conjunction Uranus (wide at 3.5°)

  6. The shape of her chart

    In her chart, her heart, her drive, her independence and her intensity (Venus, Mars, Uranus and Pluto) gather in Libra, and that part of life draws her attention first. Most of her planets are in air signs: ideas and people.
