What his chart says about him
Who he is
Sun in Cancer, the Protector
Tender under a careful shell. Makes a home anywhere and guards the people inside it. He reaches for more than one life can hold: big plans, big promises, and a habit of saying yes before counting the hours.
The Sun square Jupiter (close at 2.0°)
What he needs
Moon in Sagittarius or Scorpio, the Free Spirit
Needs room to roam and a reason to be hopeful. Shakes off a bad mood with a joke or a long walk.
For a birth before 6:32 a.m., his Moon was in Scorpio.
How he loves
Venus in Virgo, the Quiet Romantic
Shows love through care, help and attention to small things. He loves the dream of a person, and the real one has to compete with it.
Venus square Neptune (wide at 3.2°)
How he thinks
Mercury in Cancer, the Remembering Mind
A mind tuned to people. Hears what sits under the words and answers it gently. Meaning comes to him before the words do, and clear speech follows the feeling.
Mercury quincunx Neptune (close at 1.4°)
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. A quick, direct mind: he makes decisions fast and says what he means.
Mercury sextile Mars (close at 1.6°)
The shape of his chart
In his chart, his identity, his mind and his discipline (the Sun, Mercury and Saturn) gather in Cancer, and that part of life draws his attention first.
