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. A quiet strength: under pressure he grows more focused, and he knows how to start over.

    The Sun trine Pluto (almost exact at 0.4°)

  2. What he needs

    Moon in Libra or Scorpio, the Peacemaker

    Needs harmony, good company and fairness. Feels best when everyone is getting along. His feelings like freedom: he needs space in close ties and gives it back just as easily.

    The Moon trine Uranus (almost exact at 0.2°) · For a birth after 10:25 p.m., his Moon was in Scorpio.

  3. How he loves

    Venus in Capricorn, the Loyal Partner

    Careful with the heart and true once it is given. Shows love by being reliable year after year. He loves the dream of a person, and the real one has to compete with it.

    Venus square Neptune (wide at 3.3°)

  4. How he thinks

    Mercury in Sagittarius, the Philosopher

    A wide-ranging mind. Learns by asking, travelling and following a question as far as it goes. Sharp words and a sharp mind: he argues well, sometimes too well, and a debate is a kind of sport to him.

    Mercury square Mars (close at 1.3°)

  5. What drives him

    Mars in Virgo, the Craftsperson

    Skilful, hardworking and modest. Gets ahead through practice, precision and getting the details right.

  6. The shape of his chart

    In his chart, his identity, his mind and his optimism (the Sun, Mercury and Jupiter) gather in Sagittarius, and that part of life draws his attention first. No water at all, so feelings come out in actions more than in words.
