What his chart says about him

  1. Who he is

    Sun in Cancer, the Protector

    Warm, loyal and fiercely caring. Happiest looking after the people who feel like family. The self he shows the world and the self he comes home to want different things, and he makes room for both.

    The Sun square the Moon (close at 2.0°)

  2. What he needs

    Moon in Aries or Pisces, the Quick Flame

    Quick to feel and quick to forgive. Needs to say it, do something about it and move on.

    For a birth before 12:56 a.m., his Moon was in Pisces.

  3. How he loves

    Venus in Gemini or Cancer, the Charmer

    Falls for a clever mind. Needs conversation, laughter and variety in love. Words with charm in them: he has an ear for a beautiful phrase, and people like listening to him.

    Mercury conjunction Venus (almost exact at 0.2°) · For a birth before 8:59 a.m., his Venus was in Cancer.

  4. 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 in leaps: brilliant, contrary and quick to get bored with the obvious.

    Mercury conjunction Uranus (close at 2.7°)

  5. What drives him

    Mars in Virgo, the Craftsperson

    Works carefully and precisely. Gets results through skill and attention to detail. He takes on more than any one person can, and his boldness runs ahead of his plans.

    Mars square Jupiter (close at 2.3°)

  6. The shape of his chart

    The weight of his chart sits in fire and air signs: instinct and enthusiasm, and ideas and people.
