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. 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 (wide at 5.6°)

  2. What he needs

    Moon in Aquarius or Capricorn, the Cool Head

    Needs freedom, friendship and room to think. Handles feelings by stepping back and making sense of them. Quick feelings and a quick temper: he reacts first, and his courage comes from the same place as his flashes of anger.

    The Moon opposition Mars (close at 2.4°) · For a birth before 7:24 a.m., his Moon was in Capricorn.

  3. How he loves

    Venus in Aries, the Chaser

    Falls fast and loves the chase. Wants passion, honesty and a partner who keeps up.

  4. How he thinks

    Mercury in Taurus, the Careful Thinker

    A steady, sensible mind. Learns by doing and remembers what was learned. His mind runs ahead of the conversation: he says the unexpected thing, and not everyone is ready to hear it.

  5. What drives him

    Mars in Leo, the Leader

    Confident, dramatic and courageous. Puts heart into every effort and likes to lead from the front. Drive with the brakes on: he wants to move, something holds him back, and the friction makes him tough.

    Mars opposition Saturn (almost exact at 0.5°)

  6. 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. The weight of his chart sits in earth signs: the practical and the solid.
