What his chart says about him

  1. Who he is

    Sun in Capricorn, the Architect

    Patient and determined. Plays the long game, earns respect slowly, and grows warmer and more playful with the years. Born near a new Moon, so what he wants and what he needs move as one: single-minded, and hard to talk out of anything.

    The Sun conjunction the Moon (almost exact at 0.2°)

  2. What he needs

    Moon in Capricorn, the Steady Hand

    Handles feelings by getting on with things. Needs security, respect and quiet proof of being needed.

  3. How he loves

    Venus in Capricorn, the Loyal Partner

    Loves with steadiness and staying power. Takes commitment seriously and builds something lasting. He loves the dream of a person, and the real one has to compete with it.

    Venus square Neptune (close at 3.0°)

  4. How he thinks

    Mercury in Sagittarius, the Philosopher

    Thinks big and speaks frankly. Loves ideas, learning and talking about what things mean. Speaking freely and speaking carefully take constant balancing, and he weighs words before letting them go.

    Mercury quincunx Saturn (almost exact at 0.5°)

  5. What drives him

    Mars in Cancer, the Defender

    Fights hardest for the people closest to him. Works best for a cause that feels personal. He takes on more than any one person can, and his boldness runs ahead of his plans.

    Mars square Jupiter (close at 2.3°)

  6. The shape of his chart

    In his chart, his identity, his feelings and his heart (the Sun, the Moon and Venus) gather in Capricorn, and that part of life draws his attention first.
