What his chart says about him

  1. Who he is

    Sun in Aries, the Pioneer

    Direct, brave and impatient with waiting. At his best with a fresh start and a door nobody has opened yet. His confidence comes easily and spreads: he thinks big, and other people want to come along.

    The Sun sextile Jupiter (wide at 4.2°)

  2. What he needs

    Moon in Taurus or Aries, the Hearth

    Settled by simple, solid comforts: a good meal, a quiet evening, the same people year after year.

    For a birth before 2:06 a.m., his Moon was in Aries.

  3. How he loves

    Venus in Aries, the Chaser

    Falls quickly and wholeheartedly. Needs passion and a little challenge to stay interested.

  4. How he thinks

    Mercury in Aries, the Spark

    A sharp, impatient mind. Cuts straight to the point and likes a good argument. A patient, exact mind: he chooses every word, and his thinking gets sharper with practice.

    Mercury trine Saturn (close at 1.8°)

  5. What drives him

    Mars in Pisces, the Gentle Warrior

    Works from instinct and compassion. Fights for others more easily than for himself. He takes on more than any one person can, and his boldness runs ahead of his plans.

  6. The shape of his chart

    Saturn is the hub of his chart: it takes part in five of its aspects, more than any other body, so his discipline touches everything else in it. Most of his planets are in fire signs: instinct and enthusiasm.
