What her chart says about her
Who she was
Sun in Libra, the Diplomat
Fair, charming and good with people. Happiest when things are balanced, pleasant and calm. Purpose and patience worked as a team: she built slowly and got better with every year.
The Sun sextile Saturn (close at 1.8°)
What she needed
Moon in Gemini, the Talker
Feels better after talking it through. Needs conversation, variety and something interesting to think about. Feeling and thought spoke the same language: she could put a mood into words, and her words carried feeling.
The Moon trine Mercury (close at 1.4°)
How she loved
Venus in Libra, the Sweetheart
Happiest as half of a well-matched pair. Brings charm, fairness and courtesy to love. Love felt like something to be earned, and she held back until she was sure of it.
Venus square Saturn (wide at 5.8°)
How she thought
Mercury in Libra, the Mediator
Thinks in terms of fairness and sees both sides. Speaks with tact and grace. Her mind ran ahead of the conversation: she said the unexpected thing, and not everyone was ready to hear it.
Mercury opposition Uranus (close at 1.2°)
What drove her
Mars in Scorpio, the Strategist
Intense, strategic and relentless. Keeps a goal close and doesn’t let it go. Effort and restlessness kept catching each other off guard, and her plans changed at short notice.
Mars quincunx Uranus (close at 1.8°)
The shape of her chart
