What his chart says about him

  1. Who he is

    Sun in Virgo, the Fixer

    Modest about a great deal of skill. Cares through careful, useful help, and has a wit that catches people off guard. He needs room to be himself, and any rule that fits too tightly gets broken.

    The Sun square Uranus (wide at 4.8°)

  2. What he needs

    Moon in Leo or Virgo, the Warm Heart

    Wears his heart where people can see it. Needs warmth, praise and a little attention, and gives all three back.

    For a birth after 12:37 p.m., his Moon was in Virgo.

  3. How he loves

    Venus in Leo, the Romantic

    Grand in affection and fiercely loyal. Likes to celebrate the people dearest to him. A romantic with an artist’s eye: he sees the beauty in people and makes it visible to others.

    Venus sextile Neptune (close at 1.7°)

  4. How he thinks

    Mercury in Leo, the Storyteller

    Speaks with warmth and confidence and tells a great story. Thinks in big, bold ideas. A quick, direct mind: he makes decisions fast and says what he means.

    Mercury sextile Mars (wide at 4.0°)

  5. What drives him

    Mars in Gemini, the Multitasker

    Busy, versatile and sharp. Gets moving through talk, travel and a steady supply of new plans. He takes on more than any one person can, and his boldness runs ahead of his plans.

    Mars square Jupiter (wide at 3.7°)

  6. The shape of his chart

    Most of his planets are in fire and air signs: instinct and enthusiasm, and ideas and people.
