What his chart says about him

  1. Who he is

    Sun in Sagittarius, the Explorer

    Restless in the best way. Wants to see more, learn more and say exactly what is on his mind. His confidence comes easily and spreads: he thinks big, and other people want to come along.

    The Sun trine Jupiter (wide at 3.4°)

  2. What he needs

    Moon in Cancer or Leo, the Nest-Maker

    Feels everything and needs a safe home and close people. Remembers every kindness.

    For a birth after 1:41 p.m., his Moon was in Leo.

  3. How he loves

    Venus in Capricorn, the Loyal Partner

    Loves with steadiness and staying power. Takes commitment seriously and builds something lasting. He loves with depth and loyalty, and the bonds he forms change both people.

    Venus sextile Pluto (close at 2.4°)

  4. How he thinks

    Mercury in Sagittarius, the Philosopher

    A wide-ranging mind. Learns by asking, travelling and following a question as far as it goes. 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 7.8°)

  5. What drives him

    Mars in Scorpio, the Strategist

    Determined, focused and private. Plans quietly and never forgets a goal. Concentrated force: when he wants something, he goes after it with everything.

    Mars conjunction Pluto (close at 1.5°)

  6. The shape of his chart

    In his chart, his identity, his mind, his discipline and his independence (the Sun, Mercury, Saturn and Uranus) gather in Sagittarius, and that part of life draws his attention first. No air at all, so stepping back to talk a thing through takes deliberate effort.
