What his chart says about him

  1. Who he is

    Sun in Gemini, the Messenger

    A mind that won’t sit still. Lights up at a new idea and loves passing it on before it has cooled. Charm comes naturally: taste, warmth and a love of beautiful things are close to his core.

    The Sun conjunction Venus (close at 1.2°)

  2. What he needs

    Moon in Gemini, the Talker

    Sorts out feelings by putting them into words. Needs company, news and a change of scene. Steady feelings: he keeps calm under strain, and he loves in ways that last.

    The Moon trine Saturn (close at 2.2°)

  3. How he loves

    Venus in Gemini, the Charmer

    Falls for a clever mind. Needs conversation, laughter and variety in love. Charm and desire work together: he knows what he wants in love and how to win it.

    Venus trine Mars (wide at 3.8°)

  4. How he thinks

    Mercury in Cancer, the Remembering Mind

    Thinks through feeling and memory. Listens well and remembers exactly how something was said. He thinks in leaps: brilliant, contrary and quick to get bored with the obvious.

    Mercury conjunction Uranus (almost exact at 0.6°)

  5. What drives him

    Mars in Scorpio, the Strategist

    Determined, focused and private. Plans quietly and never forgets a goal. His purpose and his drive work together: once he decides on something, he moves on it fast.

    The Sun trine Mars (close at 2.6°)

  6. The shape of his chart

    In his chart, his identity, his feelings and his heart (the Sun, the Moon and Venus) gather in Gemini, and that part of life draws his attention first. In his chart, air signs hold the most planets: ideas and people.
