What his chart says about him

  1. Who he is

    Sun in Taurus, the Gardener

    Steady as bedrock. Takes time to decide, and once something is chosen, it is kept and looked after. Imagination and identity work together: he can become a character, a mood or an idea, and make others believe in it.

    The Sun trine Neptune (close at 2.5°)

  2. 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. His feelings run large: he wants more comfort, more company and more of everything than any one day gives.

    The Moon square Jupiter (almost exact at 0.2°)

  3. How he loves

    Venus in Aries, the Chaser

    Falls quickly and wholeheartedly. Needs passion and a little challenge to stay interested. Love comes with high stakes: intense attachments, and a need to know exactly where he stands.

    Venus square Pluto (almost exact at 0.8°)

  4. How he thinks

    Mercury in Gemini, the Quick Wit

    Quick, witty and endlessly curious. Picks up a subject fast and can talk about ten things at once.

  5. What drives him

    Mars in Taurus, the Stayer

    Steady, strong and very patient. He keeps going long after others stop. Drive and hope keep going in slightly different directions, and he aims again and again.

    Mars quincunx Jupiter (close at 1.6°)

  6. The shape of his chart

    In his chart, his identity, his drive and his independence (the Sun, Mars and Uranus) gather in Taurus, and that part of life draws his attention first. In his chart, earth signs hold the most planets: the practical and the solid.
