What his chart says about him
Who he is
Sun in Taurus, the Gardener
Unhurried, warm and hard to rattle. Has a gift for comfort, beauty and making things that last. His confidence comes easily and spreads: he thinks big, and other people want to come along.
The Sun trine Jupiter (almost exact at 0.1°)
What he needs
Moon in Aries or Pisces, the Quick Flame
Quick to feel and quick to forgive. Needs to say it, do something about it and move on. His feelings and his imagination pull in different directions: he lives between what is real and what he longs for.
The Moon opposition Neptune (close at 1.2°) · For a birth before 7:25 a.m., his Moon was in Pisces.
How he loves
Venus in Aries, the Chaser
Loves boldly and makes the first move. Wants excitement, honesty and a partner with spirit. His taste and his appetite for more need adjusting: he keeps learning what is enough.
Venus quincunx Jupiter (almost exact at 0.3°)
How he thinks
Mercury in Aries, the Spark
Quick to answer and quick to decide. Says what is on his mind, and gets to the idea first. Words with charm in them: he has an ear for a beautiful phrase, and people like listening to him.
Mercury conjunction Venus (wide at 4.6°)
What drives him
Mars in Aries, the Trailblazer
Pure forward motion. Brave, competitive and happiest in the middle of the action. Drive and dreams mix uneasily: the goal is clear to him, and the way to it harder to see.
Mars opposition Neptune (almost exact at 0.5°)
