What his chart says about him

  1. Who he is

    Sun in Leo, the Bright One

    Generous, loyal and born for a stage of some kind. Wants to be proud of the work and the people around him. Imagination and identity work together: he can become a character, a mood or an idea, and make others believe in it.

  2. What he needs

    Moon in Capricorn, the Steady Hand

    Steady, self-reliant and slow to show strain. Feels safe when there is a plan and something solid underfoot. His feelings and his imagination pull in different directions: he lives between what is real and what he longs for.

  3. How he loves

    Venus in Cancer, the Nurturer

    Loves tenderly and protectively. Wants closeness, family and a feeling of belonging. Charm comes naturally: taste, warmth and a love of beautiful things are close to his core.

  4. How he thinks

    Mercury in Cancer, the Remembering Mind

    Thinks with feeling and remembers everything that mattered. Speaks kindly and reads between the lines. A generous, wide-ranging mind: he learns easily, tells a good story and sees the big picture.

  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. Drive and hope keep going in slightly different directions, and he aims again and again.

  6. The shape of his chart

    In his chart, his identity, his discipline and his intensity (the Sun, Saturn and Pluto) gather in Leo, and that part of life draws his attention first.
