What his chart says about him

  1. Who he is

    Sun in Capricorn, the Architect

    Responsible from an early age. Takes the climb seriously and has a dry humour that comes out once the work is done. He keeps fitting his ambitions to his purpose, and some big plans have to wait.

    The Sun quincunx Jupiter (close at 2.1°)

  2. What he needs

    Moon in Libra or Scorpio, the Peacemaker

    Needs harmony, good company and fairness. Feels best when everyone is getting along. Good-hearted and generous: he feels looked after by life, and he passes that on.

    The Moon sextile Jupiter (exact at 0.0°) · For a birth after 9:28 p.m., his Moon was in Scorpio.

  3. How he loves

    Venus in Sagittarius, the Adventurer

    Warm, adventurous and hard to fence in. Falls for laughter, big ideas and wide-open plans. Love feels like something to be earned, and he holds back until he is sure of it.

    Venus opposition Saturn (close at 2.4°)

  4. 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. What he knows and what he says need careful managing, and secrets sit uneasily with him.

    Mercury quincunx Pluto (close at 1.0°)

  5. What drives him

    Mars in Gemini, the Multitasker

    Quick, clever and busy. Gets things done through talk, ideas and juggling several jobs. Electric: he acts on impulse, loves a risk and refuses to be told what to do.

    Mars conjunction Uranus (almost exact at 0.2°)

  6. The shape of his chart

    In his chart, his drive, his discipline and his independence (Mars, Saturn and Uranus) gather in Gemini, and that part of life draws his attention first. No water at all, so feelings come out in actions more than in words.
