What his chart says about him

  1. Who he is

    Sun in Pisces, the Dreamer

    Soft-hearted and full of imagination. Picks up on feelings nobody has said out loud. Imagination and identity work together: he can become a character, a mood or an idea, and make others believe in it.

    The Sun trine Neptune (almost exact at 0.5°)

  2. What he needs

    Moon in Capricorn or Sagittarius, the Steady Hand

    Handles feelings by getting on with things. Needs security, respect and quiet proof of being needed. He puts people at ease without trying: kindness and charm come from the same place.

    The Moon trine Venus (close at 2.4°) · For a birth before 6:36 a.m., his Moon was in Sagittarius.

  3. How he loves

    Venus in Taurus or Aries, the Keeper

    Loves with patience, touch and loyalty. Shows it in comfort, good food and being there year after year. Loyal in love: he chooses carefully, and what he builds with people lasts.

    Venus sextile Saturn (close at 2.2°) · For a birth before 4:39 a.m., his Venus was in Aries.

  4. How he thinks

    Mercury in Pisces, the Poet

    Dreamy and perceptive. Remembers how a moment felt better than what was said in it. His words have force: he speaks to persuade, and he keeps his own counsel until the right moment.

    Mercury opposition Pluto (almost exact at 0.5°)

  5. What drives him

    Mars in Pisces, the Gentle Warrior

    Gentle on the surface and quietly strong. Works best for a cause worth believing in. A fierce will: he meets opposition head on, and a fight brings out his full strength.

    Mars opposition Pluto (almost exact at 0.2°)

  6. The shape of his chart

    In his chart, his identity, his mind and his drive (the Sun, Mercury and Mars) gather in Pisces, and that part of life draws his attention first. Most of his planets are in earth and water signs: the practical and the solid, and feeling and intuition.
