What his chart says about him

  1. Who he is

    Sun in Taurus, the Gardener

    Steady as bedrock. Takes time to decide, and once something is chosen, it is kept and looked after. His purpose and his drive work together: once he decides on something, he moves on it fast.

    The Sun sextile Mars (almost exact at 0.9°)

  2. What he needs

    Moon in Pisces, the Tide

    Soaks up the feelings around him. Needs gentleness, music and time alone to come back to himself.

  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. He loves too much of a good thing: pleasure, praise and grand gestures run past what one life can use.

    Venus square Jupiter (wide at 4.2°)

  4. How he thinks

    Mercury in Taurus, the Careful Thinker

    Thinks slowly and solidly. A mind, once made up, stays made up. His words have force: he speaks to persuade, and he keeps his own counsel until the right moment.

    Mercury square Pluto (almost exact at 0.2°)

  5. What drives him

    Mars in Cancer, the Defender

    Protective to the core. Puts every ounce of strength behind family and the people dearest to him.

  6. The shape of his chart

    In his chart, his identity, his mind and his heart (the Sun, Mercury and Venus) gather in Taurus, and that part of life draws his attention first.
