What his chart says about him
Who he is
Sun in Leo, the Bright One
Warm, generous and made to be seen. Makes a room feel brighter and wants the people in it to shine too. More sensitive to criticism than it looks. Purpose and patience work as a team: he builds slowly and gets better with every year.
The Sun sextile Saturn (wide at 4.4°)
What he needs
Moon in Scorpio, the Vault
Feels hard and shows little. Needs loyalty, privacy and a few people worth trusting completely. His head and his feelings argue: he knows what he thinks before he knows what he feels, or the other way round.
The Moon square Mercury (close at 1.4°)
How he loves
Venus in Cancer, the Nurturer
Loves by caring and protecting. Wants a partner who feels like home. He puts people at ease without trying: kindness and charm come from the same place.

Mars in Virgo, the Craftsperson
Skilful, hardworking and modest. Gets ahead through practice, precision and getting the details right. Big drive and big confidence: he goes after large goals, and his enthusiasm carries others along.
