What his chart says about him
Who he is
Sun in Capricorn, the Architect
Responsible from an early age. Takes the climb seriously and has a dry humour that comes out once the work is done. His restlessness keeps testing his plans, so he changes course more than once to stay true to himself.
The Sun quincunx Uranus (close at 1.2°)
What he needs
Moon in Scorpio or Libra, the Vault
Feels hard and shows little. Needs loyalty, privacy and a few people worth trusting completely. Feelings without edges: other people’s sorrow and joy reach him as if they are his own.
The Moon conjunction Neptune (close at 1.0°) · For a birth before 6:09 a.m., his Moon was in Libra.
How he loves
Venus in Sagittarius, the Adventurer
Loves freedom, laughter and shared adventures. Wants a partner who is also a travel companion. Serious about love: he gives affection slowly, and once given, it stays given.
Venus conjunction Saturn (almost exact at 0.1°)
How he thinks
Mercury in Capricorn, the Planner
Practical, measured and dryly funny. Trusts experience over theory and gets to the point. A generous, wide-ranging mind: he learns easily, tells a good story and sees the big picture.
Mercury trine Jupiter (wide at 6.5°)
What drives him
Mars in Aries, the Trailblazer
Bold, fast and ready for a challenge. Charges at a goal and loves the thrill of starting. His drive and his discipline work together easily: he can push hard and keep going.
Mars trine Saturn (close at 2.0°)
