What his chart says about him

Soft-hearted and full of imagination. Picks up on feelings nobody has said out loud. He reached for more than one life could hold: big plans, big promises, and a habit of saying yes before counting the hours.

Even-tempered and hard to unsettle. Needs calm, touch and things that stay the same. His feelings ran hot and fast, and he protected the people he loved fiercely.
