What his chart says about him

  1. Who he is

    Sun in Sagittarius, the Explorer

    Curious, honest and always after the next horizon: a trip, a big idea, a better answer. Nothing about him is halfway: he insists on running his own life, and the struggle makes him formidable.

    The Sun square Pluto (almost exact at 0.2°)

  2. What he needs

    Moon in Taurus, the Hearth

    Even-tempered and hard to unsettle. Needs calm, touch and things that stay the same. Good-hearted and generous: he feels looked after by life, and he passes that on.

    The Moon trine Jupiter (almost exact at 0.5°)

  3. How he loves

    Venus in Capricorn, the Loyal Partner

    Loves seriously and steadily. Shows love through commitment and reliability. In love he wants tenderness and a chase at once, and his relationships are rarely calm.

    Venus opposition Mars (almost exact at 0.3°)

  4. How he thinks

    Mercury in Scorpio, the Investigator

    Searching and sharp. Asks the question nobody else will and keeps the answers close. A graceful mind: he speaks kindly and well, and he knows how to say a hard thing gently.

    Mercury sextile Venus (close at 1.5°)

  5. What drives him

    Mars in Cancer, the Defender

    Protective to the core. Puts every ounce of strength behind family and the people dearest to him. A quick, direct mind: he makes decisions fast and says what he means.

    Mercury trine Mars (close at 1.7°)

  6. The shape of his chart

    In his chart, his heart, his optimism and his discipline (Venus, Jupiter and Saturn) gather in Capricorn, and that part of life draws his attention first. No air at all, so stepping back to talk a thing through takes deliberate effort.
