Air has four of her ten planets, with two apiece in fire, earth and water, so nothing in this chart is scarce. The record gives Wilson Heart, and calls her one of the few voices that could carry Barracuda live every night.

The Sun sits on the twenty eighth degree of Gemini with Mercury at seven of the same sign, both in the sign that knows a thing and passes it on. The Moon answers from Leo at sixteen with Pluto a degree away from it. Leo needs to be appreciated before it will settle; the Moon conjunct Pluto reads as feeling at full depth, an all or nothing emotional life, and an unusual perceptiveness about what other people are hiding. For a singer the record measures by what she could do with a song on stage every night, private feeling welded to concentrated force in the performing sign is the contact the whole account rests on.

Saturn sits in quiet contact with Neptune at just under a degree, adjacent signs and the mildest link available, and it reads as imagination made durable: artists who finish things, and faith that survives being examined. The Moon sits sixty degrees from that same Neptune at just over a degree. Mercury sits square Jupiter at four tenths of a degree, scale outrunning accuracy, which is the closest contact in the chart. Neptune alone was retrograde at her birth.

Jupiter came the whole way round to its Pisces starting point on 1 February 2022, at seventy one, and five circuits precede it. Pisces draws no line of its own, so what it asks is what carried over, and for a singer the record describes by a performance repeated night after night, what carried over is the voice itself. A Moon on Pluto in Leo, with nothing in the chart scarce enough to soften it, is the fact to keep.
