What his chart says about him

  1. Who he is

    Sun in Pisces, the Dreamer

    Imaginative, gentle and very aware of how others feel. People leave a conversation with him feeling understood. He keeps redrawing the line between the life he has and the life he imagines.

    The Sun quincunx Neptune (almost exact at 0.1°)

  2. What he needs

    Moon in Aquarius or Pisces, the Cool Head

    Feels at a little distance and thinks feelings through. Needs friends, freedom and room to be different.

    For a birth after 8:09 p.m., his Moon was in Pisces.

  3. How he loves

    Venus in Aquarius, the Kindred Spirit

    Unconventional in love. Drawn to the original and the independent, and needs room inside closeness. A romantic with an artist’s eye: he sees the beauty in people and makes it visible to others.

    Venus trine Neptune (close at 1.5°)

  4. How he thinks

    Mercury in Aquarius, the Inventor

    Clever, unusual and ahead of the moment. Loves ideas for their own sake and thinks about everyone, not only the few. A quick, direct mind: he makes decisions fast and says what he means.

    Mercury trine Mars (close at 1.2°)

  5. What drives him

    Mars in Gemini, the Multitasker

    Restless, quick and clever. Does several things at once and wins with words. Controlled force: he works with patience and grit, and he finishes what he starts.

    Mars conjunction Saturn (wide at 5.0°)

  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 earth at all, so the practical, settled side is the one he has to find.
