What his chart says about him
Who he is
Sun in Aries, the Pioneer
Direct, brave and impatient with waiting. At his best with a fresh start and a door nobody has opened yet. He fights hard for what he wants, and his temper is part of his courage.
The Sun square Mars (almost exact at 0.8°)
What he needs
Moon in Capricorn, the Steady Hand
Keeps feelings under control and feels safest when life is organised and secure. He loves hard and holds on hard, and letting go takes him a long time.
The Moon square Pluto (almost exact at 0.6°)
How he loves
Venus in Pisces, the Tender Heart
Gentle, devoted and full of feeling. Wants a love with a little magic in it. Affection and the need for control keep getting in each other’s way, and trust takes him time.
Venus quincunx Pluto (almost exact at 0.2°)
How he thinks
Mercury in Pisces, the Poet
An intuitive, imaginative mind. Thinks in images and picks up what is left unsaid. A patient, exact mind: he chooses every word, and his thinking gets sharper with practice.
Mercury trine Saturn (close at 2.1°)
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. Big drive and big confidence: he goes after large goals, and his enthusiasm carries others along.
Mars sextile Jupiter (close at 2.9°)
The shape of his chart
