What his chart says about him

  1. Who he is

    Sun in Scorpio, the Detective

    Intense, private and loyal. Wants the real story, not the polite one, and gives all or nothing. Funnier than people expect, and kinder in private than in public. He needs room to be himself, and any rule that fits too tightly gets broken.

    The Sun square Uranus (almost exact at 0.6°)

  2. What he needs

    Moon in Scorpio or Libra, the Vault

    Feels everything strongly and privately. Needs trust, loyalty and honesty above all. He thinks with his feelings: memory, mood and wit come together, and his words give away what he feels.

    The Moon conjunction Mercury (close at 2.8°) · For a birth before 2:54 a.m., his Moon was in Libra.

  3. How he loves

    Venus in Capricorn, the Loyal Partner

    Loves seriously and steadily. Shows love through commitment and reliability. A generous heart: love and good company come to him easily, and he shares both.

    Venus conjunction Jupiter (close at 1.6°)

  4. How he thinks

    Mercury in Scorpio, the Investigator

    Thinks in depth and wants the real story. Says little and notices everything. A probing mind: he gets to the bottom of things, and his words have power when he chooses to use them.

    Mercury sextile Pluto (almost exact at 0.1°)

  5. What drives him

    Mars in Cancer, the Defender

    Driven by feeling. Goes the furthest for something personal, and guards home fiercely. Drive with the brakes on: he wants to move, something holds him back, and the friction makes him tough.

  6. The shape of his chart

    In his chart, his heart, his optimism and his discipline (Venus, Jupiter and Saturn) gather in Capricorn, and that part of life draws his attention first. No air at all, so stepping back to talk a thing through takes deliberate effort.
