What his chart says about him
Who he is
Sun in Sagittarius, the Explorer
Open, funny and frank. Chases meaning the way other people chase money, with a map half unfolded. He needs room to be himself, and any rule that fits too tightly gets broken.
The Sun opposition Uranus (exact at 0.0°)
What he needs
Moon in Leo, the Warm Heart
Proud, warm and loyal in feeling. Needs to be appreciated, and makes loved ones feel like stars.
How he loves
Venus in Sagittarius or Scorpio, the Adventurer
Loves openly and with good humour. Needs freedom, honesty and someone to explore the world with. Affection and independence need constant trading off, and he keeps renegotiating the terms of his relationships.
Venus quincunx Uranus (close at 1.7°) · For a birth before 7:28 a.m., his Venus was in Scorpio.
How he thinks
Mercury in Capricorn, the Planner
A disciplined, realistic mind. Thinks in steps, plans for the long run and says only what is needed. A patient, exact mind: he chooses every word, and his thinking gets sharper with practice.
Mercury trine Saturn (wide at 3.3°)
What drives him
Mars in Capricorn, the Achiever
Determined, controlled and built for the long climb. Works patiently toward the top. Force and restraint keep trading places, and he learns when to let go.
Mars quincunx Pluto (close at 1.8°)
The shape of his chart
In his chart, his mind, his drive and his optimism (Mercury, Mars and Jupiter) gather in Capricorn, and that part of life draws his attention first. No water at all, so feelings come out in actions more than in words.
