What his chart says about him
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. His purpose and his feelings are on the same side: the life he chooses and the comfort he needs go together.
The Sun trine the Moon (close at 1.3°)
What he needs
Moon in Libra, the Peacemaker
Unsettled by conflict and soothed by kindness. Needs good company and a sense that things are fair. Restless feelings: he feels most at home where things are new.
The Moon conjunction Uranus (close at 1.6°)
How he loves
Venus in Taurus, the Keeper
Slow to fall and slow to leave. Wants a love that feels safe, warm and real. Words with charm in them: he has an ear for a beautiful phrase, and people like listening to him.
Mercury conjunction Venus (wide at 4.0°)
How he thinks
Mercury in Taurus, the Careful Thinker
Thinks slowly and solidly. A mind, once made up, stays made up. A probing mind: he gets to the bottom of things, and his words have power when he chooses to use them.
Mercury trine Pluto (wide at 3.5°)
What drives him
Mars in Aquarius, the Rebel
Driven by ideas and fairness. Fights for change and does things differently. His purpose and his drive work together: once he decides on something, he moves on it fast.
The Sun trine Mars (close at 1.7°)
The shape of his chart
In his chart, his mind, his heart and his discipline (Mercury, Venus and Saturn) gather in Taurus, and that part of life draws his attention first. No water at all, so feelings come out in actions more than in words.
