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 (almost exact at 0.8°)
What he needs
Moon in Scorpio, the Vault
Feels hard and shows little. Needs loyalty, privacy and a few people worth trusting completely. Quick feelings and a quick temper: he reacts first, and his courage comes from the same place as his flashes of anger.
The Moon opposition Mars (wide at 3.2°)
How he loves
Venus in Virgo, the Quiet Romantic
Loves quietly and attentively. Shows care through thoughtful help and remembering the small things. A graceful mind: he speaks kindly and well, and he knows how to say a hard thing gently.
Mercury sextile Venus (close at 2.9°)
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 1.1°)
What drives him
Mars in Taurus, the Stayer
Slow and sure. He does not rush, and he is hard to push off course. His drive and his imagination speak different languages: he goes after something before he can say what it is.
Mars quincunx Neptune (close at 2.0°)
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. Most of his planets are in water signs: feeling and intuition.
