What his chart says about him

  1. Who he is

    Sun in Scorpio, the Detective

    Deep, watchful and all in. Trusts slowly, and once trust is given, it is given completely. Imagination and identity work together: he can become a character, a mood or an idea, and make others believe in it.

    The Sun sextile Neptune (close at 2.5°)

  2. What he needs

    Moon in Cancer, the Nest-Maker

    Feels everything and needs a safe home and close people. Remembers every kindness. He puts people at ease without trying: kindness and charm come from the same place.

    The Moon trine Venus (close at 1.8°)

  3. How he loves

    Venus in Scorpio, the Devotee

    Loves intensely and loyally. Wants a close, honest bond and nothing less. Affection comes to him with generosity attached: his heart and his optimism help each other.

    Venus trine Jupiter (wide at 5.5°)

  4. How he thinks

    Mercury in Scorpio, the Investigator

    Searching and sharp. Asks the question nobody else will and keeps the answers close. Words with charm in them: he has an ear for a beautiful phrase, and people like listening to him.

    Mercury conjunction Venus (wide at 6.3°)

  5. What drives him

    Mars in Aquarius, the Rebel

    Driven by ideas and causes. Breaks with convention and pushes for something new. His drive and his discipline work together easily: he can push hard and keep going.

    Mars sextile Saturn (close at 1.5°)

  6. The shape of his chart

    In his chart, his identity, his mind, his heart and his intensity (the Sun, Mercury, Venus and Pluto) gather in Scorpio, and that part of life draws his attention first. The weight of his chart sits in water signs: feeling and intuition.
