What his chart says about him

  1. Who he is

    Sun in Cancer, the Protector

    Warm, loyal and fiercely caring. Happiest looking after the people who feel like family. Self-belief comes slowly and has to be earned, one result at a time, and every result counts.

    The Sun opposition Saturn (close at 2.1°)

  2. What he needs

    Moon in Virgo, the Mender

    Feels calm when things are in order and useful. Shows care through small, practical help. His feelings run hot and fast, and he protects the people he loves fiercely.

    The Moon conjunction Mars (wide at 4.2°)

  3. How he loves

    Venus in Gemini, the Charmer

    Playful, curious and charming in love. Wants variety, banter and a mind to match. In love he wants tenderness and a chase at once, and his relationships are rarely calm.

  4. How he thinks

    Mercury in Cancer, the Remembering Mind

    A mind tuned to people. Hears what sits under the words and answers it gently. The facts and the bigger picture need constant reconciling, and he keeps checking one against the other.

    Mercury quincunx Jupiter (close at 1.4°)

  5. What drives him

    Mars in Virgo, the Craftsperson

    Skilful, hardworking and modest. Gets ahead through practice, precision and getting the details right. He works for ideals: his drive comes alive for a cause, a role or a dream.

    Mars sextile Neptune (close at 2.5°)

  6. The shape of his chart

    In his chart, his feelings, his drive and his intensity (the Moon, Mars and Pluto) gather in Virgo, and that part of life draws his attention first. The weight of his chart sits in earth signs: the practical and the solid.
