What his chart says about him
Who he is
Sun in Libra, the Diplomat
Drawn to beauty, good manners and a fair deal. Works best with a partner and hates a needless fight. His confidence comes easily and spreads: he thinks big, and other people want to come along.
The Sun sextile Jupiter (close at 2.2°)
What he needs
Moon in Pisces or Aries, the Tide
Feels the mood of a room from the doorway. Comfort comes from water, music, softness and kindness. His feelings run large: he wants more comfort, more company and more of everything than any one day gives.
The Moon square Jupiter (almost exact at 0.4°) · For a birth after 10:37 p.m., his Moon was in Aries.
How he loves
Venus in Virgo, the Quiet Romantic
Loves quietly and attentively. Shows care through thoughtful help and remembering the small things.
How he thinks
Mercury in Scorpio, the Investigator
Thinks in depth and wants the real story. Says little and notices everything. A quick, original mind: ideas arrive in flashes, and he sees answers others miss.
Mercury trine Uranus (close at 1.1°)
What drives him
Mars in Scorpio, the Strategist
Determined, focused and private. Plans quietly and never forgets a goal. Effort and restlessness keep catching each other off guard, and his plans change at short notice.
Mars quincunx Uranus (close at 1.7°)
