What his chart says about him

  1. Who he is

    Sun in Aquarius, the Free Thinker

    Independent, inventive and quietly idealistic. Asks why things are done this way and imagines a better one. He keeps fitting his ambitions to his purpose, and some big plans have to wait.

    The Sun quincunx Jupiter (wide at 3.4°)

  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.

  3. How he loves

    Venus in Pisces, the Tender Heart

    Gentle, devoted and full of feeling. Wants a love with a little magic in it. Charm and desire work together: he knows what he wants in love and how to win it.

    Venus sextile Mars (almost exact at 0.2°)

  4. How he thinks

    Mercury in Capricorn, the Planner

    A disciplined, realistic mind. Thinks in steps, plans for the long run and says only what is needed. A quick, original mind: ideas arrive in flashes, and he sees answers others miss.

    Mercury trine Uranus (wide at 4.7°)

  5. What drives him

    Mars in Capricorn, the Achiever

    Disciplined and steady. Plans the route, does the work and gets there in the end. He takes on more than any one person can, and his boldness runs ahead of his plans.
