What his chart says about him

  1. Who he is

    Sun in Libra, the Diplomat

    Gracious, sociable and keen on fairness. Has a gift for making people feel at ease with each other. The self he knows and the image others see drift apart at times, and he works to keep hold of the real one.

  2. What he needs

    Moon in Leo or Cancer, the Warm Heart

    Proud, warm and loyal in feeling. Needs to be appreciated, and makes loved ones feel like stars. His feelings turn straight into action: when something matters, he does something about it.

  3. How he loves

    Venus in Virgo or Leo, the Quiet Romantic

  4. How he thinks

    Mercury in Libra, the Mediator

    Weighs every side before speaking. Diplomatic, graceful and good at finding the words that keep the peace. A patient, exact mind: he chooses every word, and his thinking gets sharper with practice.

  5. What drives him

    Mars in Aries, the Trailblazer

    All drive, courage and quick starts. Goes first, acts fast, and is at his best when something needs doing now. Big drive and big confidence: he goes after large goals, and his enthusiasm carries others along.

    Mars sextile Jupiter (close at 2.6°)

  6. The shape of his chart

    Mars is the hub of his chart: it takes part in six of its aspects, more than any other body, so his drive touches everything else in it. In his chart, fire signs hold the most planets: instinct and enthusiasm.
