What his chart says about him

  1. Who he is

    Sun in Pisces, the Dreamer

    Dreamy, kind and quietly perceptive. People come away feeling seen. 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 2.3°)

  2. What he needs

    Moon in Sagittarius or Scorpio, the Free Spirit

    Needs room to roam and a reason to be hopeful. Shakes off a bad mood with a joke or a long walk.

    For a birth before 7:02 a.m., his Moon was in Scorpio.

  3. How he loves

    Venus in Pisces, the Tender Heart

    Loves with compassion and imagination. Wants a romantic, gentle bond. He loves the dream of a person, and the real one has to compete with it.

    Venus square Neptune (close at 1.9°)

  4. How he thinks

    Mercury in Pisces, the Poet

    An intuitive, imaginative mind. Thinks in images and picks up what is left unsaid. A quick, original mind: ideas arrive in flashes, and he sees answers others miss.

    Mercury trine Uranus (wide at 3.2°)

  5. What drives him

    Mars in Cancer, the Defender

    Protective to the core. Puts every ounce of strength behind family and the people dearest to him. Charm and desire work together: he knows what he wants in love and how to win it.

    Venus trine Mars (close at 2.2°)

  6. The shape of his chart

    In his chart, his identity, his mind and his heart (the Sun, Mercury and Venus) gather in Pisces, and that part of life draws his attention first. No earth at all, so the practical, settled side is the one he has to find.
