What his chart says about him
Who he is
Sun in Cancer, the Protector
Remembers birthdays, old jokes and who needed help. Loyalty runs deep, and so does the need to belong. Purpose and patience work as a team: he builds slowly and gets better with every year.
The Sun trine Saturn (almost exact at 0.8°)
What he needs
Moon in Leo, the Warm Heart
Wears his heart where people can see it. Needs warmth, praise and a little attention, and gives all three back. His feelings run large: he wants more comfort, more company and more of everything than any one day gives.
The Moon square Jupiter (close at 1.0°)
How he loves
Venus in Leo, the Romantic
Loves with warmth, pride and a generous heart. Wants romance, admiration and loyalty in return. A graceful mind: he speaks kindly and well, and he knows how to say a hard thing gently.
Mercury sextile Venus (close at 1.1°)
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.
What drives him
Mars in Libra, the Negotiator
Gets things done through people, charm and fairness. Prefers teamwork to a fight, and fights hardest for others. He fights hard for what he wants, and his temper is part of his courage.

The shape of his chart
The Sun is the hub of his chart: it takes part in five of its aspects, more than any other body, so his identity touches everything else in it. Most of his planets are in water signs: feeling and intuition.
