What his chart says about him
Who he is
Sun in Aquarius, the Free Thinker
Original, independent and fair. Thinks about how things could work better for everyone. He keeps rebuilding himself to fit what life asks, and control is the hardest thing to give up.
The Sun quincunx Pluto (close at 1.5°)
What he needs
Moon in Virgo, the Mender
Feels calm when things are in order and useful. Shows care through small, practical help. His feelings run hot and fast, and he protects the people he loves fiercely.
The Moon conjunction Mars (almost exact at 0.7°)
How he loves
Venus in Aquarius, the Kindred Spirit
Loves friend-first. Falls for a mind, needs room to breathe, and is drawn to people who are a little different. Serious about love: he gives affection slowly, and once given, it stays given.
Venus conjunction Saturn (close at 2.8°)
How he thinks
Mercury in Aquarius, the Inventor
Original and future-minded. Thinks in systems and finds new ways to do old things. His mind and his identity are close together: he speaks as he thinks, and his ideas are part of who he is.
The Sun conjunction Mercury (wide at 3.5°)
What drives him
Mars in Virgo, the Craftsperson
Skilful, hardworking and modest. Gets ahead through practice, precision and getting the details right. Enthusiasm at full speed: he charges at life with confidence, and setbacks slow him only briefly.
Mars conjunction Jupiter (wide at 4.3°)
The shape of his chart
In his chart, his identity, his mind, his heart and his discipline (the Sun, Mercury, Venus and Saturn) gather in Aquarius, and that part of life draws his attention first. In his chart, earth and air signs hold the most planets: the practical and the solid, and ideas and people.
