What his chart says about him

  1. Who he is

    Sun in Cancer, the Protector

    Warm, loyal and fiercely caring. Happiest looking after the people who feel like family. Purpose and patience work as a team: he builds slowly and gets better with every year.

    The Sun trine Saturn (wide at 3.2°)

  2. What he needs

    Moon in Scorpio or Libra, the Vault

    Feels hard and shows little. Needs loyalty, privacy and a few people worth trusting completely. His moods change without warning, and he wants closeness and room to breathe at the same time.

    The Moon square Uranus (almost exact at 0.7°) · For a birth before 6:57 a.m., his Moon was in Libra.

  3. How he loves

    Venus in Gemini, the Charmer

    Playful, curious and charming in love. Wants variety, banter and a mind to match. In love he wants tenderness and a chase at once, and his relationships are rarely calm.

    Venus square Mars (wide at 3.2°)

  4. How he thinks

    Mercury in Cancer, the Remembering Mind

    A mind tuned to people. Hears what sits under the words and answers it gently. A quick, direct mind: he makes decisions fast and says what he means.

    Mercury trine Mars (close at 1.2°)

  5. What drives him

    Mars in Pisces, the Gentle Warrior

    Works from instinct and compassion. Fights for others more easily than for himself. His purpose and his drive work together: once he decides on something, he moves on it fast.

    The Sun trine Mars (wide at 3.8°)

  6. The shape of his chart

    In his chart, water signs hold the most planets: feeling and intuition.
