What his chart says about him
Who he is
Sun in Gemini, the Messenger
A mind that won’t sit still. Lights up at a new idea and loves passing it on before it has cooled. 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 (close at 1.4°)
What he needs
Moon in Libra or Scorpio, the Peacemaker
Unsettled by conflict and soothed by kindness. Needs good company and a sense that things are fair. He loves hard and holds on hard, and letting go takes him a long time.
The Moon square Pluto (close at 2.7°) · For a birth after 3:12 p.m., his Moon was in Scorpio.
How he loves
Venus in Gemini, the Charmer
Playful, curious and charming in love. Wants variety, banter and a mind to match. Words with charm in them: he has an ear for a beautiful phrase, and people like listening to him.
Mercury conjunction Venus (wide at 6.2°)
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. He thinks fast and speaks faster: his mind likes a contest, and his words have an edge.
Mercury conjunction Mars (wide at 4.0°)
What drives him
Mars in Gemini, the Multitasker
Quick, clever and busy. Gets things done through talk, ideas and juggling several jobs. Drive and dreams mix uneasily: the goal is clear to him, and the way to it harder to see.
Mars square Neptune (almost exact at 0.7°)
The shape of his chart
In his chart, his identity, his mind, his heart and his drive (the Sun, Mercury, Venus and Mars) gather in Gemini, and that part of life draws his attention first. In his chart, air signs hold the most planets: ideas and people.
