What his chart says about him

  1. Who he is

    Sun in Scorpio, the Detective

    Private and powerful. Sees past the surface, keeps secrets well and does nothing halfway. Charm comes naturally: taste, warmth and a love of beautiful things are close to his core.

    The Sun conjunction Venus (almost exact at 0.2°)

  2. What he needs

    Moon in Aquarius or Pisces, the Cool Head

    Calm in a crisis, private about feelings. Comfort comes from friendship, ideas and space of his own.

    For a birth after 5:28 p.m., his Moon was in Pisces.

  3. How he loves

    Venus in Scorpio, the Devotee

    All or nothing in love. Feels intensely and stays loyal to the very end. Affection comes to him with generosity attached: his heart and his optimism help each other.

    Venus trine Jupiter (close at 2.8°)

  4. How he thinks

    Mercury in Scorpio, the Investigator

    Thinks in depth and wants the real story. Says little and notices everything. He thinks fast and speaks faster: his mind likes a contest, and his words have an edge.

    Mercury conjunction Mars (wide at 4.4°)

  5. What drives him

    Mars in Scorpio, the Strategist

    Quietly powerful. Works in private, holds nothing back, and does not give up. When to push and when to wait takes constant judging, and he learns timing the hard way.

    Mars quincunx Saturn (close at 1.1°)

  6. The shape of his chart

    In his chart, his identity, his mind, his heart and his drive (the Sun, Mercury, Venus and Mars) gather in Scorpio, and that part of life draws his attention first. No earth at all, so the practical, settled side is the one he has to find.
