What his chart says about him

  1. Who he is

    Sun in Capricorn, the Architect

    Patient and determined. Plays the long game, earns respect slowly, and grows warmer and more playful with the years. Nothing about him is halfway: he insists on running his own life, and the struggle makes him formidable.

    The Sun square Pluto (close at 2.4°)

  2. What he needs

    Moon in Capricorn or Aquarius, the Steady Hand

    Steady, self-reliant and slow to show strain. Feels safe when there is a plan and something solid underfoot.

    For a birth after 5:05 p.m., his Moon was in Aquarius.

  3. How he 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. He loves the unusual: original taste, unexpected friendships and a style all his own.

    Venus sextile Uranus (almost exact at 0.4°)

  4. How he thinks

    Mercury in Sagittarius, the Philosopher

    Thinks big and speaks frankly. Loves ideas, learning and talking about what things mean. Big ideas and loose details: he thinks on a large scale, and the small print is where things get away from him.

    Mercury opposition Jupiter (close at 3.0°)

  5. What drives him

    Mars in Leo, the Leader

    Full of fire and pride. Works hardest for a cause close to his heart and wants the effort to be seen.

  6. The shape of his chart

    Pluto is the hub of his chart: it takes part in four of its aspects, more than any other body, so his intensity touches everything else in it. Most of his planets are in fire signs: instinct and enthusiasm.
