What her chart says about her
Who she was
Sun in Scorpio, the Detective
Deep, watchful and all in. Trusts slowly, and once trust is given, it is given completely. Her purpose and her feelings were on the same side: the life she chose and the comfort she needed went together.
The Sun trine the Moon (almost exact at 0.1°)
What she needed
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. Feeling and thought spoke the same language: she could put a mood into words, and her words carried feeling.
The Moon trine Mercury (almost exact at 0.9°)
How she loved
Venus in Scorpio, the Devotee
Loves intensely and loyally. Wants a close, honest bond and nothing less. Words with charm in them: she had an ear for a beautiful phrase, and people liked listening to her.
Mercury conjunction Venus (close at 2.6°)
How she thought
Mercury in Scorpio, the Investigator
A penetrating mind. Reads people well, speaks carefully and can tell when something is being hidden. Her mind and her identity were close together: she spoke as she thought, and her ideas were part of who she was.
The Sun conjunction Mercury (almost exact at 0.8°)
What drove her
Mars in Sagittarius, the Champion
Adventurous and principled. Throws herself behind big causes and what is right. Big drive and big confidence: she went after large goals, and her enthusiasm carried others along.
Mars sextile Jupiter (close at 2.1°)
The shape of her chart
