What his chart says about him
Who he is
Sun in Libra, the Diplomat
Drawn to beauty, good manners and a fair deal. Works best with a partner and hates a needless fight. Intensity at the centre: he wants the whole truth about everything, himself first, and he remakes himself more than once to reach it.
The Sun conjunction Pluto (wide at 4.1°)
What he needs
Moon in Virgo, the Mender
Shows feeling in practical ways: a fixed problem, a remembered detail, a cup of tea at the right time.
How he loves
Venus in Scorpio, the Devotee
All or nothing in love. Feels intensely and stays loyal to the very end. Affection comes to him with generosity attached: his heart and his optimism help each other.
Venus sextile Jupiter (wide at 4.1°)
How he thinks
Mercury in Scorpio, the Investigator
A penetrating mind. Reads people well, speaks carefully and can tell when something is being hidden. Sharp words and a sharp mind: he argues well, sometimes too well, and a debate is a kind of sport to him.
Mercury square Mars (close at 1.6°)
What drives him
Mars in Leo, the Leader
Bold, proud and full of drive. Wants to lead, works hardest on what is dear to him, and wants to be recognised for it. He works for ideals: his drive comes alive for a cause, a role or a dream.
Mars trine Neptune (wide at 5.3°)
The shape of his chart
