What his chart says about him

  1. Who he is

    Sun in Taurus or Aries, the Gardener

    Calm, patient and loyal. Grows good things slowly and keeps them for years. Nothing about him is halfway: he insists on running his own life, and the struggle makes him formidable.

    The Sun square Pluto (wide at 3.8°) · For a birth before 4:20 a.m., his Sun was in Aries.

  2. What he needs

    Moon in Virgo or Leo, the Mender

    Feels calm when things are in order and useful. Shows care through small, practical help. Quick feelings and a quick temper: he reacts first, and his courage comes from the same place as his flashes of anger.

    The Moon square Mars (almost exact at 0.9°) · For a birth before 12:16 a.m., his Moon was in Leo.

  3. How he loves

    Venus in Aries, the Chaser

    Loves boldly and makes the first move. Wants excitement, honesty and a partner with spirit. He loves too much of a good thing: pleasure, praise and grand gestures run past what one life can use.

    Venus square Jupiter (almost exact at 0.5°)

  4. How he thinks

    Mercury in Taurus, the Careful Thinker

    Thinks slowly and solidly. A mind, once made up, stays made up. He thinks in pictures and music: his words carry a mood, and his imagination gives his ideas colour.

    Mercury trine Neptune (wide at 3.6°)

  5. What drives him

    Mars in Sagittarius, the Champion

    Adventurous and principled. Throws himself behind big causes and what is right. His drive and his discipline work together easily: he can push hard and keep going.

    Mars trine Saturn (wide at 5.8°)

  6. The shape of his chart

    Jupiter is the hub of his chart: it takes part in five of its aspects, more than any other body, so his optimism touches everything else in it. No air at all, so stepping back to talk a thing through takes deliberate effort.
