What his chart says about him
Who he is
Sun in Taurus, the Gardener
Steady as bedrock. Takes time to decide, and once something is chosen, it is kept and looked after. Aim and action run at different speeds, and he spends real effort keeping them in step.
The Sun quincunx Mars (close at 3.0°)
What he needs
Moon in Virgo or Libra, the Mender
Feels calm when things are in order and useful. Shows care through small, practical help. Feelings come second to duty: he holds himself to a high standard, even in private.

How he loves
Venus in Aries, the Chaser

Venus square Jupiter (close at 1.8°)

What drives him

The shape of his chart
