Monica’s task: write a blog post about anything you are interested in
Blog (general)
Blog name: StarLit
Blog function: analysing the star signs of characters from literature (primarily novels,
spanning from popular YA fiction to classics!)
Blog tone: light and playful; but not trivial- it’ll penetrate each character’s depths to reveal
their innermost fears and desires, what drives them, what holds them back, the mask they
present to the world vs their internal emotional life etc.
Blog tags: astrology, literature, psychology, mental-health

Title: Jane and Rochie: Written in the Stars? Analysing the star signs and compatibility of
Jane Eyre and Mr Rochester, from Charlotte Bronte’s Jane Eyre.
Content: I will explore the big three signs for Jane Eyre and Mr Rochester and then I will
then use these to construct a compatibility analysis. I may also allocate a sun sign to some of
the smaller characters (e.g. Adele, Mrs Fairfax, Bertha Mason…)
Jane sun: Virgo. (Logical and hardworking in their life approach; isn’t afraid to improve
through diligent and consistent practice; hyper-aware of detail; deals with information like a
computer; practical helper; excellent teachers and healers; overly critical of self and others;
all work no play; dislikes taking center stage; tender heart often closed to the world; doesn’t
lack the ability to express, just won’t accept feelings as relevant when opposed to reason.)
Jane moon: Scorpio. (Feelings come with a strong current; lots of tough emotional
lessons; loyal; exudes a trustworthiness that draws people into your confidence; few
people can make you feel safe enough to reveal your emotions; when it comes to desire,
you’re hot or you’re not; hard person to get to know; loyal and loving; calm advisor in
times of stress.)
Jane ascendent: Virgo. (described as organised, put together, and reliable; natural caregiver;
good at prioritising things in order of importance; tend to intellectualize, analyse, and
question everything; down to earth and rational; likes order and routine; losing
control is unthinkable to lose control; disciplined; super-efficient professionally; nit-
pick too much.)
Rochie sun: Gemini. (Gentle; curious; ability to learn quickly and exchange ideas; likes;
music, book, and chatting; dislikes being confined; expressive and quick-witted; sociable and
fun with a tendency to suddenly get thoughtful and restless; fascinated with the world
itself.)
Rochie moon: Sagittarius (Loves deep, philosophical conversation; strong opinions;
passion to travel the world; temper can flare up quickly; sharp B.S. detector; security
comes from knowing you can move about at will, without having to answer to anyone
else’s demands; thirst for knowledge and learning; the entertaining & spontaneous
life of the party; their decisions, sometimes reckless, can be damaging to themselves
and others.)
Rochie ascendant: Aries. (Comes across as brave, opinionated and independent; strong and
commanding presence; potentially intimidating; competitive; asks for forgiveness not
permission; impatient and impulsive; curious and quick-witted; often act on impulse
and forge full-speed ahead; loathe routine and always have new ideas for spicing up
, your daily life; have trouble following rules. You need to to go off the beaten path,
and, in love, to be blown away.)
Compatibility: Virgo sun - confidant must be intelligent enough to help parse through
layered, multi-dimensional experience; rich inner life, so can go long periods of time
being solitary, and then suddenly end up in a soul-stirring partnership that lasts a
lifetime; puts their needs above others. Gemini sun - feels their other half is missing,
forever seeking their other half to talk to; sees love first through verbal contact; when they
find the right lover they will be faithful and determined to always treasure their heart. Both
Gemini and Virgo are governed by Mercury, the messenger planet of communication; only
Gemini expresses emotionally externally, whereas Virgo processes internally.
