What his chart says about him

  1. Who he is

    Sun in Pisces, the Dreamer

    Soft-hearted and full of imagination. Picks up on feelings nobody has said out loud. Nothing about him is halfway: he insists on running his own life, and the struggle makes him formidable.

    The Sun opposition Pluto (wide at 4.5°)

  2. What he needs

    Moon in Taurus or Gemini, the Hearth

    Even-tempered and hard to unsettle. Needs calm, touch and things that stay the same. His feelings run deep and hold steady: he comes through hard times with more strength than he goes in with.

    The Moon trine Pluto (almost exact at 0.2°) · For a birth after 6:37 p.m., his Moon was in Gemini.

  3. How he loves

    Venus in Aries, the Chaser

    Falls quickly and wholeheartedly. Needs passion and a little challenge to stay interested. His taste and his appetite for more need adjusting: he keeps learning what is enough.

  4. How he thinks

    Mercury in Pisces, the Poet

    Dreamy and perceptive. Remembers how a moment felt better than what was said in it.

  5. 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. He takes on more than any one person can, and his boldness runs ahead of his plans.

  6. The shape of his chart

    The weight of his chart sits in earth signs: the practical and the solid.
