Anne Frank

In the voice of a girl not yet grown, Anne Frank left the world one of its most enduring books, and her chart glows with the very gifts that made it possible. Her Sun is in Gemini, the sign of the writer, the messenger, the eternal twin, the marriage of the Sun and Mercury where vitality shines through words, wit and endless curiosity. It sits in the eleventh house, the house of the tribe and of humanity's highest hopes, and there is the whole meaning of her short life: a single voice that became a torch for millions, her diary translated into more than seventy languages. Her Moon in Leo, mirrored by a Leo rising, gives her a doubly regal, warm-hearted, dramatic spirit, king and queen in one, a born performer who felt through creation and dreamed openly of becoming a writer. That Moon in the second house tied her sense of worth to the love of her family, the cocoon behind the bookcase in Amsterdam. Born in Frankfurt in 1929, forced into hiding under Nazi persecution, arrested in 1944 and murdered at Bergen-Belsen the following winter, she was silenced far too young. Yet her Gemini Sun still speaks: her father saved the diary, and her wish to be a writer was granted by the whole world.
