What his chart says about him

  1. Who he is

    Sun in Gemini, the Messenger

    A mind that won’t sit still. Lights up at a new idea and loves passing it on before it has cooled. Imagination and identity work together: he can become a character, a mood or an idea, and make others believe in it.

    The Sun trine Neptune (close at 2.2°)

  2. What he needs

    Moon in Virgo, the Mender

    Feels calm when things are in order and useful. Shows care through small, practical help.

  3. How he loves

    Venus in Cancer, the Nurturer

    Loves tenderly and protectively. Wants closeness, family and a feeling of belonging. Affection and independence need constant trading off, and he keeps renegotiating the terms of his relationships.

  4. How he thinks

    Mercury in Taurus or Gemini, the Careful Thinker

    Thinks slowly and solidly. A mind, once made up, stays made up. 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 (close at 2.6°) · For a birth after 5:22 p.m., his Mercury was in Gemini.

  5. What drives him

    Mars in Libra, the Negotiator

    Persuasive rather than forceful. Wins people over and stands up hardest for what is fair. He takes on more than any one person can, and his boldness runs ahead of his plans.

    Mars opposition Jupiter (close at 2.1°)

  6. The shape of his chart

    Saturn is the hub of his chart: it takes part in four of its aspects, more than any other body, so his discipline touches everything else in it. The weight of his chart sits in air signs: ideas and people.
