James Hoffmann’s birth chart

What his chart says about him

1. Who he is

   ☉Sun in Sagittarius, the Explorer

   Curious, honest and always after the next horizon: a trip, a big idea, a better answer. 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 (almost exact at 0.9°)

2. What he needs

   ☽Moon in Virgo, the Mender

   Settles worry by doing something useful. Needs order, routine and a job done well. He puts people at ease without trying: kindness and charm come from the same place.

   The Moon trine Venus (close at 1.9°)

3. How he loves

   ♀Venus in Capricorn, the Loyal Partner

   Loves seriously and steadily. Shows love through commitment and reliability. Love comes with high stakes: intense attachments, and a need to know exactly where he stands.

   Venus square Pluto (wide at 5.2°)

4. How he thinks

   ☿Mercury in Scorpio, the Investigator

   Thinks in depth and wants the real story. Says little and notices everything. A patient, exact mind: he chooses every word, and his thinking gets sharper with practice.

   Mercury sextile Saturn (close at 2.3°)

5. What drives him

   ♂Mars in Virgo, the Craftsperson

   Works carefully and precisely. Gets results through skill and attention to detail. Enthusiasm at full speed: he charges at life with confidence, and setbacks slow him only briefly.

   Mars conjunction Jupiter (close at 1.3°)

6. The shape of his chart

   In his chart, his feelings, his drive, his optimism and his discipline (the Moon, Mars, Jupiter and Saturn) gather in Virgo, and that part of life draws his attention first. Most of his planets are in earth signs: the practical and the solid.
