What his chart says about him

  1. Who he is

    Sun in Cancer, the Protector

    Remembers birthdays, old jokes and who needed help. Loyalty runs deep, and so does the need to belong. He needs room to be himself, and any rule that fits too tightly gets broken.

    The Sun square Uranus (close at 2.1°)

  2. What he needs

    Moon in Taurus, the Hearth

    Even-tempered and hard to unsettle. Needs calm, touch and things that stay the same.

  3. How he loves

    Venus in Gemini, the Charmer

    Playful, curious and charming in love. Wants variety, banter and a mind to match. Charm and desire work together: he knows what he wants in love and how to win it.

    Venus sextile Mars (almost exact at 0.1°)

  4. How he thinks

    Mercury in Cancer, the Remembering Mind

    Thinks through feeling and memory. Listens well and remembers exactly how something was said. His words have force: he speaks to persuade, and he keeps his own counsel until the right moment.

    Mercury square Pluto (almost exact at 0.3°)

  5. What drives him

    Mars in Leo, the Leader

    Full of fire and pride. Works hardest for a cause close to his heart and wants the effort to be seen. Quick and inventive in action: he moves fast, breaks with habit and makes sudden changes work.

    Mars sextile Uranus (close at 1.9°)

  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. The weight of his chart sits in water signs: feeling and intuition.
