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. His mind and his identity are close together: he speaks as he thinks, and his ideas are part of who he is.

    The Sun conjunction Mercury (wide at 6.1°)

  2. What he needs

    Moon in Aquarius, the Cool Head

    Needs freedom, friendship and room to think. Handles feelings by stepping back and making sense of them. He picks up what others feel before a word is said, and his compassion reaches far.

    The Moon trine Neptune (almost exact at 0.5°)

  3. How he loves

    Venus in Scorpio, the Devotee

    Loves fiercely, privately and for keeps. Wants complete trust and a bond that goes beneath the surface. Love feels like something to be earned, and he holds back until he is sure of it.

    Venus square Saturn (wide at 3.1°)

  4. How he thinks

    Mercury in Virgo, the Analyst

    Precise, practical and clever. Notices the detail everyone else missed.

  5. What drives him

    Mars in Libra, the Negotiator

    Persuasive rather than forceful. Wins people over and stands up hardest for what is fair. Quick and inventive in action: he moves fast, breaks with habit and makes sudden changes work.

    Mars trine Uranus (close at 2.5°)

  6. The shape of his chart

    In his chart, his drive, his optimism and his imagination (Mars, Jupiter and Neptune) gather in Libra, and that part of life draws his attention first. Most of his planets are in air signs: ideas and people.
