What his chart says about him

  1. Who he is

    Sun in Pisces, the Dreamer

    Soft-hearted and full of imagination. Picks up on feelings nobody has said out loud.

  2. What he needs

    Moon in Aries, the Quick Flame

    Feels things fast and hot, and gets over them fast too. Needs action, honesty and room to move. He loves hard and holds on hard, and letting go takes him a long time.

  3. How he loves

    Venus in Aries, the Chaser

    Falls quickly and wholeheartedly. Needs passion and a little challenge to stay interested. A romantic with an artist’s eye: he sees the beauty in people and makes it visible to others.

    Venus trine Neptune (almost exact at 0.1°)

  4. How he thinks

    Mercury in Aquarius, the Inventor

    Original and future-minded. Thinks in systems and finds new ways to do old things. He thinks in pictures and music: his words carry a mood, and his imagination gives his ideas colour.

    Mercury sextile Neptune (almost exact at 0.1°)

  5. What drives him

    Mars in Aquarius, the Rebel

    Driven by ideas and causes. Breaks with convention and pushes for something new. Restless and quick to rebel: he pushes against limits, and sudden decisions come with the territory.

    Mars square Uranus (close at 2.3°)

  6. The shape of his chart

    Mercury is the hub of his chart: it takes part in seven of its aspects, more than any other body, so his mind touches everything else in it. Most of his planets are in fire signs: instinct and enthusiasm.
