What his chart says about him

  1. Who he is

    Sun in Virgo, the Fixer

    Notices what is out of place and knows how to make it better. Shows love by being useful, and has a dry, quick humour that surprises people. His purpose and his drive work together: once he decides on something, he moves on it fast.

    The Sun sextile Mars (close at 1.0°)

  2. What he needs

    Moon in Aquarius or Capricorn, the Cool Head

    Calm in a crisis, private about feelings. Comfort comes from friendship, ideas and space of his own.

    For a birth before 4:00 a.m., his Moon was in Capricorn.

  3. How he loves

    Venus in Virgo, the Quiet Romantic

    Modest in love and devoted to the bone. Proves feelings through actions rather than speeches. Words with charm in them: he has an ear for a beautiful phrase, and people like listening to him.

    Mercury conjunction Venus (wide at 5.4°)

  4. How he thinks

    Mercury in Virgo, the Analyst

    Clever, methodical and useful. Turns a muddle into a list and the list into results. Serious thoughts: he says less than he knows, and what he says holds up.

    Mercury conjunction Saturn (wide at 3.6°)

  5. What drives him

    Mars in Scorpio, the Strategist

    Determined, focused and private. Plans quietly and never forgets a goal. He takes on more than any one person can, and his boldness runs ahead of his plans.

  6. The shape of his chart

    In his chart, his identity, his mind, his heart and his discipline (the Sun, Mercury, Venus and Saturn) gather in Virgo, and that part of life draws his attention first. Most of his planets are in earth signs: the practical and the solid.
