What his chart says about him

  1. Who he is

    Sun in Taurus, the Gardener

    Unhurried, warm and hard to rattle. Has a gift for comfort, beauty and making things that last. Purpose and drive in one place: he is quick to start, quick to compete and hard to stop.

    The Sun conjunction Mars (wide at 7.3°)

  2. What he needs

    Moon in Gemini or Taurus, the Talker

    Light on his feet emotionally. Feels at home in a good conversation and gets restless in silence. Steady feelings: he keeps calm under strain, and he loves in ways that last.

    The Moon trine Saturn (almost exact at 0.6°) · For a birth before 7:01 a.m., his Moon was in Taurus.

  3. How he loves

    Venus in Taurus, the Keeper

    Slow to fall and slow to leave. Wants a love that feels safe, warm and real. 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°)

  4. How he thinks

    Mercury in Taurus, the Careful Thinker

    Thinks things through at his own pace. Practical, patient and very hard to talk out of a view. Meaning comes to him before the words do, and clear speech follows the feeling.

    Mercury quincunx Neptune (almost exact at 0.5°)

  5. What drives him

    Mars in Taurus, the Stayer

    Slow to start and impossible to stop. He works steadily, builds things to last and does not give up under pressure.

  6. The shape of his chart

    In his chart, his optimism, his discipline and his intensity (Jupiter, Saturn and Pluto) gather in Libra, and that part of life draws his attention first. Most of his planets are in earth and air signs: the practical and the solid, and ideas and people.
