What his chart says about him

  1. Who he is

    Sun in Pisces, the Dreamer

    Soft-hearted and full of imagination. Picks up on feelings nobody has said out loud. He needs room to be himself, and any rule that fits too tightly gets broken.

    The Sun opposition Uranus (wide at 4.4°)

  2. What he needs

    Moon in Virgo or Libra, the Mender

    Settles worry by doing something useful. Needs order, routine and a job done well.

    For a birth after 5:22 p.m., his Moon was in Libra.

  3. How he loves

    Venus in Pisces, the Tender Heart

    Loves with compassion and imagination. Wants a romantic, gentle bond. Love comes with high stakes: intense attachments, and a need to know exactly where he stands.

    Venus opposition Pluto (almost exact at 0.1°)

  4. How he thinks

    Mercury in Aquarius, the Inventor

    An inventive, independent mind. Sees patterns others miss and questions the usual way of doing things. What he knows and what he says need careful managing, and secrets sit uneasily with him.

    Mercury quincunx Pluto (almost exact at 0.9°)

  5. What drives him

    Mars in Aquarius, the Rebel

    Driven by ideas and fairness. Fights for change and does things differently. Drive and dreams mix uneasily: the goal is clear to him, and the way to it harder to see.

    Mars square Neptune (close at 2.0°)

  6. The shape of his chart

    In his chart, his mind, his drive, his optimism and his discipline (Mercury, Mars, Jupiter and Saturn) gather in Aquarius, and that part of life draws his attention first. The weight of his chart sits in air signs: ideas and people.
