What he needs
Moon in Capricorn, the Steady Hand
Handles feelings by getting on with things. Needs security, respect and quiet proof of being needed.

Mars in Leo, the Leader
Bold, proud and full of drive. Wants to lead, works hardest on what is dear to him, and wants to be recognised for it. He takes on more than any one person can, and his boldness runs ahead of his plans.
