What his chart says about him

  1. Who he is

    Sun in Taurus or Gemini, the Gardener

    Unhurried, warm and hard to rattle. Has a gift for comfort, beauty and making things that last. A quiet strength: under pressure he grows more focused, and he knows how to start over.

    The Sun trine Pluto (almost exact at 0.3°) · For a birth after 7:00 p.m., his Sun was in Gemini.

  2. What he needs

    Moon in Virgo, the Mender

    Shows feeling in practical ways: a fixed problem, a remembered detail, a cup of tea at the right time. Good-hearted and generous: he feels looked after by life, and he passes that on.

    The Moon trine Jupiter (almost exact at 0.5°)

  3. How he loves

    Venus in Cancer, the Nurturer

    Loves tenderly and protectively. Wants closeness, family and a feeling of belonging. What he wants from love and what love gives him keep needing adjustment, and he learns to see people as they are.

    Venus quincunx Neptune (almost exact at 0.1°)

  4. How he thinks

    Mercury in Taurus, the Careful Thinker

    Thinks things through at his own pace. Practical, patient and very hard to talk out of a view. Ordinary logic and sudden insight need constant translating, and he spends time explaining how he gets there.

    Mercury quincunx Uranus (close at 1.6°)

  5. What drives him

    Mars in Cancer, the Defender

    Protective to the core. Puts every ounce of strength behind family and the people dearest to him. His drive and his imagination speak different languages: he goes after something before he can say what it is.

    Mars quincunx Neptune (close at 1.2°)

  6. The shape of his chart

    Neptune is the hub of his chart: it takes part in six of its aspects, more than any other body, so his imagination touches everything else in it. Most of his planets are in earth signs: the practical and the solid.
