What his chart says about him

  1. Who he is

    Sun in Capricorn, the Architect

    Responsible from an early age. Takes the climb seriously and has a dry humour that comes out once the work is done. He reaches for more than one life can hold: big plans, big promises, and a habit of saying yes before counting the hours.

    The Sun opposition Jupiter (close at 1.8°)

  2. What he needs

    Moon in Capricorn, the Steady Hand

    Keeps feelings under control and feels safest when life is organised and secure.

  3. How he loves

    Venus in Aquarius, the Kindred Spirit

    Unconventional in love. Drawn to the original and the independent, and needs room inside closeness. His taste and his appetite for more need adjusting: he keeps learning what is enough.

    Venus quincunx Jupiter (almost exact at 0.8°)

  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.

  5. What drives him

    Mars in Sagittarius, the Champion

    Goes after big goals with enthusiasm and a strong sense of right. Charm and desire work together: he knows what he wants in love and how to win it.

    Venus sextile Mars (close at 1.2°)

  6. The shape of his chart

    In his chart, his identity, his feelings, his mind, his discipline, his independence and his imagination (the Sun, the Moon, Mercury, Saturn, Uranus and Neptune) gather in Capricorn, and that part of life draws his attention first. The weight of his chart sits in earth signs: the practical and the solid.
