What his chart says about him
Who he is
Sun in Cancer, the Protector
Remembers birthdays, old jokes and who needed help. Loyalty runs deep, and so does the need to belong. He needs room to be himself, and any rule that fits too tightly gets broken.
The Sun square Uranus (wide at 3.4°)
What he needs
Moon in Virgo, the Mender
Shows feeling in practical ways: a fixed problem, a remembered detail, a cup of tea at the right time.
How he loves
Venus in Gemini, the Charmer
Loves with words and wit. Needs a partner to talk with late into the night. Charm and desire work together: he knows what he wants in love and how to win it.
Venus trine Mars (close at 1.3°)
How he thinks
Mercury in Cancer, the Remembering Mind
Thinks with feeling and remembers everything that mattered. Speaks kindly and reads between the lines. His mind runs ahead of the conversation: he says the unexpected thing, and not everyone is ready to hear it.
Mercury square Uranus (wide at 5.0°)
What drives him
Mars in Aquarius, the Rebel
Independent and inventive in action. Fights for the group, the future and a fairer way. He takes on more than any one person can, and his boldness runs ahead of his plans.
Mars square Jupiter (wide at 6.7°)
The shape of his chart
Jupiter is the hub of his chart: it takes part in four of its aspects, more than any other body, so his optimism touches everything else in it. Most of his planets are in air signs: ideas and people.
