What his chart says about him
Who he is
Sun in Sagittarius, the Explorer
Curious, honest and always after the next horizon: a trip, a big idea, a better answer. Self-belief comes slowly and has to be earned, one result at a time, and every result counts.
The Sun square Saturn (close at 1.0°)
What he needs
Moon in Virgo, the Mender
Settles worry by doing something useful. Needs order, routine and a job done well.
How he loves
Venus in Aquarius, the Kindred Spirit
Loves as a friend first. Values honesty, freedom and a partner who is fully his own person. Affection and independence need constant trading off, and he keeps renegotiating the terms of his relationships.
Venus quincunx Uranus (close at 1.7°)
How he thinks
Mercury in Capricorn, the Planner
Thinks practically and plans ahead. Speaks with authority and a dry sense of humour. His mind runs ahead of the conversation: he says the unexpected thing, and not everyone is ready to hear it.
Mercury opposition Uranus (close at 2.1°)
What drives him
Mars in Virgo, the Craftsperson
Diligent and exact. Puts effort into doing a thing properly, step by careful step. He fights hard for what he wants, and his temper is part of his courage.
The Sun square Mars (wide at 4.0°)
The shape of his chart
In his chart, his feelings, his drive and his discipline (the Moon, Mars and Saturn) gather in Virgo, and that part of life draws his attention first. The weight of his chart sits in earth signs: the practical and the solid.
