What her chart says about her

  1. Who she is

    Sun in Aquarius, the Free Thinker

    A free mind with a strong sense of fairness. Friendly to everyone and hard to pin down. Her mind and her identity are close together: she speaks as she thinks, and her ideas are part of who she is.

    The Sun conjunction Mercury (almost exact at 0.1°)

  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. She loves hard and holds on hard, and letting go takes her a long time.

    The Moon square Pluto (close at 1.2°)

  3. How she loves

    Venus in Capricorn, the Loyal Partner

    Careful with the heart and true once it is given. Shows love by being reliable year after year. Her taste and her appetite for more need adjusting: she keeps learning what is enough.

    Venus quincunx Jupiter (close at 2.2°)

  4. How she thinks

    Mercury in Aquarius, the Inventor

    Clever, unusual and ahead of the moment. Loves ideas for their own sake and thinks about everyone, not only the few. She thinks in pictures and music: her words carry a mood, and her imagination gives her ideas colour.

    Mercury sextile Neptune (almost exact at 0.3°)

  5. What drives her

    Mars in Aquarius, the Rebel

    Independent and inventive in action. Fights for the group, the future and a fairer way. Stamina and willpower: she keeps going long after others stop, and she does her best work under pressure.

    Mars trine Pluto (wide at 3.9°)

  6. The shape of her chart

    In her chart, her identity, her mind and her drive (the Sun, Mercury and Mars) gather in Aquarius, and that part of life draws her attention first. In her chart, air signs hold the most planets: ideas and people.
