What his chart says about him

  1. Who he is

    Sun in Taurus, the Gardener

    Calm, patient and loyal. Grows good things slowly and keeps them for years. Charm comes naturally: taste, warmth and a love of beautiful things are close to his core.

    The Sun conjunction Venus (wide at 3.9°)

  2. What he needs

    Moon in Taurus or Aries, the Hearth

    Settled by simple, solid comforts: a good meal, a quiet evening, the same people year after year. His moods change without warning, and he wants closeness and room to breathe at the same time.

    The Moon square Uranus (almost exact at 0.5°) · For a birth before 7:18 a.m., his Moon was in Aries.

  3. How he loves

    Venus in Taurus, the Keeper

    Loves slowly, loyally and through the senses. Once someone is let in, they stay in, and they are cared for in ways they can touch. He keeps weighing pleasure against duty, and joy comes once the work is done.

    Venus quincunx Saturn (almost exact at 0.5°)

  4. How he thinks

    Mercury in Taurus, the Careful Thinker

    Thinks slowly and solidly. A mind, once made up, stays made up. A generous, wide-ranging mind: he learns easily, tells a good story and sees the big picture.

    Mercury trine Jupiter (wide at 3.8°)

  5. What drives him

    Mars in Gemini, the Multitasker

    Busy, versatile and sharp. Gets moving through talk, travel and a steady supply of new plans. Stamina and willpower: he keeps going long after others stop, and he does his best work under pressure.

    Mars sextile Pluto (close at 1.2°)

  6. The shape of his chart

    Neptune is the hub of his chart: it takes part in five of its aspects, more than any other body, so his imagination touches everything else in it. In his chart, earth signs hold the most planets: the practical and the solid.
