What his chart says about him

  1. Who he is

    Sun in Pisces, the Dreamer

    Imaginative, gentle and very aware of how others feel. People leave a conversation with him feeling understood. A quiet strength: under pressure he grows more focused, and he knows how to start over.

    The Sun trine Pluto (almost exact at 0.4°)

  2. What he needs

    Moon in Leo or Virgo, the Warm Heart

    Wears his heart where people can see it. Needs warmth, praise and a little attention, and gives all three back. Good-hearted and generous: he feels looked after by life, and he passes that on.

    The Moon trine Jupiter (almost exact at 0.7°) · For a birth after 1:07 p.m., his Moon was in Virgo.

  3. How he loves

    Venus in Aries, the Chaser

    Falls fast and loves the chase. Wants passion, honesty and a partner who keeps up. A generous heart: love and good company come to him easily, and he shares both.

    Venus conjunction Jupiter (wide at 3.2°)

  4. How he thinks

    Mercury in Aquarius, the Inventor

    An inventive, independent mind. Sees patterns others miss and questions the usual way of doing things. His words have force: he speaks to persuade, and he keeps his own counsel until the right moment.

    Mercury square Pluto (wide at 3.1°)

  5. What drives him

    Mars in Capricorn, the Achiever

    Ambitious, disciplined and patient. Works hard and climbs steadily. Action guided by imagination: he moves on instinct and feeling, and he gives his all to a vision.

    Mars conjunction Neptune (wide at 3.6°)

  6. The shape of his chart

    In his chart, his drive, his discipline, his independence and his imagination (Mars, Saturn, Uranus and Neptune) gather in Capricorn, and that part of life draws his attention first. The weight of his chart sits in earth signs: the practical and the solid.
