What his chart says about him
Who he is
Sun in Cancer, the Protector
Remembers birthdays, old jokes and who needed help. Loyalty runs deep, and so does the need to belong. A quiet strength: under pressure he grows more focused, and he knows how to start over.
The Sun sextile Pluto (close at 1.1°)
What he needs
Moon in Virgo or Libra, the Mender
Shows feeling in practical ways: a fixed problem, a remembered detail, a cup of tea at the right time. Restless feelings: he feels most at home where things are new.
The Moon conjunction Uranus (close at 2.2°) · For a birth after 11:20 p.m., his Moon was in Libra.
How he loves
Venus in Virgo, the Quiet Romantic
Loves quietly and attentively. Shows care through thoughtful help and remembering the small things.
How he thinks
Mercury in Cancer, the Remembering Mind
Thinks with feeling and remembers everything that mattered. Speaks kindly and reads between the lines. He doubts his own ideas before anyone else can, and so he checks every one twice.
Mercury square Saturn (close at 2.4°)
What drives him
Mars in Libra, the Negotiator
Works best alongside others. Prefers diplomacy to battle, and fights for justice when it counts. He fights hard for what he wants, and his temper is part of his courage.
