What his chart says about him

  1. Who he is

    Sun in Leo, the Bright One

    Warm, generous and made to be seen. Makes a room feel brighter and wants the people in it to shine too. More sensitive to criticism than it looks. 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 0.9°)

  2. What he needs

    Moon in Leo, the Warm Heart

    Proud, warm and loyal in feeling. Needs to be appreciated, and makes loved ones feel like stars. Tenderness through and through: he needs beauty and affection the way others need air.

    The Moon conjunction Venus (wide at 3.6°)

  3. How he loves

    Venus in Leo, the Romantic

    Loves big, loyally and warmly. Wants to adore and be adored. Charm comes naturally: taste, warmth and a love of beautiful things are close to his core.

    The Sun conjunction Venus (close at 2.0°)

  4. How he thinks

    Mercury in Virgo, the Analyst

    Clever, methodical and useful. Turns a muddle into a list and the list into results. He doubts his own ideas before anyone else can, and so he checks every one twice.

    Mercury square Saturn (close at 2.1°)

  5. What drives him

    Mars in Aquarius, the Rebel

    Independent and inventive in action. Fights for the group, the future and a fairer way. Quick and inventive in action: he moves fast, breaks with habit and makes sudden changes work.

    Mars trine Uranus (wide at 3.3°)

  6. The shape of his chart

    In his chart, his identity, his feelings and his heart (the Sun, the Moon and Venus) gather in Leo, and that part of life draws his attention first. The weight of his chart sits in fire signs: instinct and enthusiasm.
