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. Purpose and patience work as a team: she builds slowly and gets better with every year.

    The Sun sextile Saturn (wide at 3.6°)

  2. What she needs

    Moon in Cancer, the Nest-Maker

    Feels everything and holds on to what matters. Needs a place to come home to and people who stay. Tenderness through and through: she needs beauty and affection the way others need air.

    The Moon conjunction Venus (wide at 3.4°)

  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 (wide at 5.3°)

  4. How she thinks

    Mercury in Gemini, the Quick Wit

    Quick, witty and endlessly curious. Picks up a subject fast and can talk about ten things at once. A probing mind: she gets to the bottom of things, and her words have power when she chooses to use them.

    Mercury sextile Pluto (close at 1.1°)

  5. What drives her

    Mars in Gemini, the Multitasker

    Busy, versatile and sharp. Gets moving through talk, travel and a steady supply of new plans. She works for ideals: her drive comes alive for a cause, a role or a dream.

    Mars trine Neptune (almost exact at 0.1°)

  6. The shape of her chart

    In her chart, her identity, her feelings, her heart and her independence (the Sun, the Moon, Venus and Uranus) gather in Cancer, and that part of life draws her attention first. Most of her planets are in air and water signs: ideas and people, and feeling and intuition.
