What his chart says about him
Who he is
Sun in Capricorn, the Architect
Patient and determined. Plays the long game, earns respect slowly, and grows warmer and more playful with the years. His mind and his identity are close together: he speaks as he thinks, and his ideas are part of who he is.
The Sun conjunction Mercury (close at 1.9°)
What he needs
Moon in Aquarius, the Cool Head
Needs freedom, friendship and room to think. Handles feelings by stepping back and making sense of them.
How he loves
Venus in Scorpio, the Devotee
All or nothing in love. Feels intensely and stays loyal to the very end. He loves the unusual: original taste, unexpected friendships and a style all his own.
Venus trine Uranus (close at 3.0°)
How he thinks
Mercury in Capricorn, the Planner
A disciplined, realistic mind. Thinks in steps, plans for the long run and says only what is needed.
What drives him
Mars in Pisces, the Gentle Warrior
Moves by intuition and feeling. Finds strength in service and in standing up for someone else. His drive and his discipline work together easily: he can push hard and keep going.
Mars trine Saturn (almost exact at 0.6°)
The shape of his chart
Venus is the hub of his chart: it takes part in five of its aspects, more than any other body, so his heart touches everything else in it. Most of his planets are in water signs: feeling and intuition.
