What his chart says about him

  1. Who he is

    Sun in Cancer, the Protector

    Warm, loyal and fiercely caring. Happiest looking after the people who feel like family. He needs room to be himself, and any rule that fits too tightly gets broken.

    The Sun square Uranus (close at 1.0°)

  2. What he needs

    Moon in Scorpio, the Vault

    Still on the surface and strong underneath. Holds on to feelings, and to the people who earn them.

  3. How he loves

    Venus in Gemini, the Charmer

    Loves with words and wit. Needs a partner to talk with late into the night. Love comes with high stakes: intense attachments, and a need to know exactly where he stands.

    Venus square Pluto (close at 1.8°)

  4. How he thinks

    Mercury in Cancer, the Remembering Mind

    A mind tuned to people. Hears what sits under the words and answers it gently. A probing mind: he gets to the bottom of things, and his words have power when he chooses to use them.

  5. What drives him

    Mars in Aquarius, the Rebel

    Driven by ideas and fairness. Fights for change and does things differently. Charm and desire work together: he knows what he wants in love and how to win it.

    Venus trine Mars (wide at 3.8°)

  6. The shape of his chart

    Jupiter is the hub of his chart: it takes part in six of its aspects, more than any other body, so his optimism touches everything else in it. In his chart, air and water signs hold the most planets: ideas and people, and feeling and intuition.
