What his chart says about him

  1. Who he is

    Sun in Taurus, the Gardener

    Calm, patient and loyal. Grows good things slowly and keeps them for years. He keeps redrawing the line between the life he has and the life he imagines.

    The Sun quincunx Neptune (close at 2.0°)

  2. What he needs

    Moon in Gemini or Cancer, the Talker

    Sorts out feelings by putting them into words. Needs company, news and a change of scene.

    For a birth after 2:42 p.m., his Moon was in Cancer.

  3. How he loves

    Venus in Gemini, the Charmer

    Loves with words and wit. Needs a partner to talk with late into the night. He loves the dream of a person, and the real one has to compete with it.

  4. 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. A patient, exact mind: he chooses every word, and his thinking gets sharper with practice.

    Mercury trine Saturn (almost exact at 0.4°)

  5. What drives him

    Mars in Leo, the Leader

    Full of fire and pride. Works hardest for a cause close to his heart and wants the effort to be seen. Restless and quick to rebel: he pushes against limits, and sudden decisions come with the territory.

    Mars square Uranus (close at 1.8°)

  6. The shape of his chart

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