What his chart says about him

  1. Who he is

    Sun in Capricorn, the Architect

    Serious, capable and ambitious. Builds a life step by step, and gets more playful and lighter with age. His mind and his identity are close together: he speaks as he thinks, and his ideas are part of who he is.

    The Sun conjunction Mercury (close at 1.6°)

  2. What he needs

    Moon in Virgo or Leo, the Mender

    Feels calm when things are in order and useful. Shows care through small, practical help.

    For a birth before 5:47 a.m., his Moon was in Leo.

  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. What he finds beautiful and what he desires keep parting ways, and love takes some working out.

    Venus quincunx Mars (close at 1.4°)

  4. How he thinks

    Mercury in Capricorn, the Planner

    Thinks practically and plans ahead. Speaks with authority and a dry sense of humour. A quick, direct mind: he makes decisions fast and says what he means.

    Mercury trine Mars (almost exact at 0.3°)

  5. What drives him

    Mars in Virgo, the Craftsperson

    Works carefully and precisely. Gets results through skill and attention to detail. His purpose and his drive work together: once he decides on something, he moves on it fast.

    The Sun trine Mars (close at 2.0°)

  6. The shape of his chart

    Neptune is the hub of his chart: it takes part in five of its aspects, more than any other body, so his imagination touches everything else in it. No water at all, so feelings come out in actions more than in words.
