James Patterson’s birth chart

What his chart says about him

1. Who he is

   ☉Sun in Aries, the Pioneer

   Built to begin. Says yes before the plan is finished and gets everyone else moving. Born near a new Moon, so what he wants and what he needs move as one: single-minded, and hard to talk out of anything.

   The Sun conjunction the Moon (almost exact at 0.2°)

2. What he needs

   ☽Moon in Aries or Pisces, the Quick Flame

   Feels things fast and hot, and gets over them fast too. Needs action, honesty and room to move. Steady feelings: he keeps calm under strain, and he loves in ways that last.

   The Moon trine Saturn (almost exact at 0.6°) · For a birth before 9:23 a.m., his Moon was in Pisces.

3. How he loves

   ♀Venus in Aquarius, the Kindred Spirit

   Loves friend-first. Falls for a mind, needs room to breathe, and is drawn to people who are a little different. He loves the unusual: original taste, unexpected friendships and a style all his own.

   Venus trine Uranus (close at 2.3°)

4. How he thinks

   ☿Mercury in Pisces, the Poet

   An intuitive, imaginative mind. Thinks in images and picks up what is left unsaid. Meaning comes to him before the words do, and clear speech follows the feeling.

   Mercury quincunx Neptune (almost exact at 0.5°)

5. What drives him

   ♂Mars in Pisces, the Gentle Warrior

   Gentle on the surface and quietly strong. Works best for a cause worth believing in. Restless and quick to rebel: he pushes against limits, and sudden decisions come with the territory.

   Mars square Uranus (wide at 3.9°)

6. The shape of his chart

   The Sun is the hub of his chart: it takes part in five of its aspects, more than any other body, so his identity touches everything else in it. No earth at all, so the practical, settled side is the one he has to find.
