What his chart says about him

  1. Who he is

    Sun in Taurus, the Gardener

    Steady as bedrock. Takes time to decide, and once something is chosen, it is kept and looked after. He keeps fitting his ambitions to his purpose, and some big plans have to wait.

    The Sun quincunx Jupiter (wide at 3.1°)

  2. What he needs

    Moon in Leo, the Warm Heart

    Needs to feel loved, appreciated and a little special, and gives warmth generously in return. Self-contained: he keeps his feelings in order, and he gives comfort in practical ways rather than in words.

    The Moon conjunction Saturn (almost exact at 0.3°)

  3. How he loves

    Venus in Cancer, the Nurturer

    Shows love by looking after people. Needs a partner who feels like a safe harbour. He loves the dream of a person, and the real one has to compete with it.

  4. How he thinks

    Mercury in Gemini, the Quick Wit

    Fast, curious and funny. Thinks out loud and collects ideas from everywhere. A probing mind: he gets to the bottom of things, and his words have power when he chooses to use them.

    Mercury sextile Pluto (almost exact at 0.7°)

  5. What drives him

    Mars in Leo, the Leader

    Confident, dramatic and courageous. Puts heart into every effort and likes to lead from the front. Big drive and big confidence: he goes after large goals, and his enthusiasm carries others along.

    Mars trine Jupiter (close at 1.1°)

  6. The shape of his chart

    In his chart, his feelings, his drive, his discipline and his intensity (the Moon, Mars, Saturn and Pluto) gather in Leo, and that part of life draws his attention first. In his chart, fire signs hold the most planets: instinct and enthusiasm.
