What his chart says about him

  1. Who he is

    Sun in Capricorn, the Architect

    Patient and determined. Plays the long game, earns respect slowly, and grows warmer and more playful with the years. Nothing about him is halfway: he insists on running his own life, and the struggle makes him formidable.

    The Sun square Pluto (wide at 5.5°)

  2. What he needs

    Moon in Cancer, the Nest-Maker

    Tender, protective and sensitive to mood. Comfort comes from family, old friends and familiar rooms.

  3. How he loves

    Venus in Sagittarius, the Adventurer

    Warm, adventurous and hard to fence in. Falls for laughter, big ideas and wide-open plans.

  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 sextile Mars (almost exact at 0.3°)

  5. What drives him

    Mars in Scorpio, the Strategist

    Intense, strategic and relentless. Keeps a goal close and doesn’t let it go. Concentrated force: when he wants something, he goes after it with everything.

    Mars conjunction Pluto (close at 1.2°)

  6. The shape of his chart

    In his chart, his heart, his optimism, his independence and his imagination (Venus, Jupiter, Uranus and Neptune) gather in Sagittarius, and that part of life draws his attention first. No air at all, so stepping back to talk a thing through takes deliberate effort.
