What his chart says about him
Who he is
Sun in Virgo, the Fixer
Sharp-eyed and quietly kind. Sees how a thing could work better and rolls up his sleeves to fix it. 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 2.4°)
What he needs
Moon in Scorpio or Libra, the Vault
Feels everything strongly and privately. Needs trust, loyalty and honesty above all. He loves hard and holds on hard, and letting go takes him a long time.
The Moon square Pluto (almost exact at 0.4°) · For a birth before 11:26 a.m., his Moon was in Libra.
How he loves
Venus in Libra, the Sweetheart
Happiest as half of a well-matched pair. Brings charm, fairness and courtesy to love. Charm and desire work together: he knows what he wants in love and how to win it.
Venus sextile Mars (close at 2.7°)
How he thinks
Mercury in Virgo, the Analyst
Clever, methodical and useful. Turns a muddle into a list and the list into results. Big ideas and loose details: he thinks on a large scale, and the small print is where things get away from him.
Mercury opposition Jupiter (wide at 7.1°)
What drives him
Mars in Leo, the Leader
Bold, proud and full of drive. Wants to lead, works hardest on what is dear to him, and wants to be recognised for it. He takes on more than any one person can, and his boldness runs ahead of his plans.
Mars opposition Jupiter (close at 2.0°)
The shape of his chart
In his chart, his identity, his mind and his imagination (the Sun, Mercury and Neptune) gather in Virgo, and that part of life draws his attention first. The weight of his chart sits in earth signs: the practical and the solid.
