What his chart says about him

  1. Who he is

    Sun in Libra, the Diplomat

    Fair, charming and good with people. Happiest when things are balanced, pleasant and calm. A quiet strength: under pressure he grows more focused, and he knows how to start over.

    The Sun sextile Pluto (wide at 3.5°)

  2. What he needs

    Moon in Aries, the Quick Flame

    Feels in bursts, honestly and all at once. Hates sitting still with a mood, and needs a way to act on it. His feelings run deep and hold steady: he comes through hard times with more strength than he goes in with.

    The Moon trine Pluto (close at 1.3°)

  3. How he loves

    Venus in Scorpio, the Devotee

    Loves intensely and loyally. Wants a close, honest bond and nothing less.

  4. How he thinks

    Mercury in Scorpio, the Investigator

    Searching and sharp. Asks the question nobody else will and keeps the answers close. He loves ideas, the bigger the better, and he can talk anyone into hoping.

    Mercury conjunction Jupiter (almost exact at 0.8°)

  5. What drives him

    Mars in Scorpio, the Strategist

    Intense, strategic and relentless. Keeps a goal close and doesn’t let it go. A fierce will: he meets opposition head on, and a fight brings out his full strength.

    Mars square Pluto (close at 2.3°)

  6. The shape of his chart

    In his chart, his mind, his heart, his drive and his optimism (Mercury, Venus, Mars and Jupiter) gather in Scorpio, and that part of life draws his attention first. No earth at all, so the practical, settled side is the one he has to find.
