What his chart says about him

  1. Who he is

    Sun in Scorpio, the Detective

    Private and powerful. Sees past the surface, keeps secrets well and does nothing halfway. Born original: his identity and his need for freedom are the same thing, and he surprises people, himself included.

    The Sun conjunction Uranus (wide at 7.2°)

  2. What he needs

    Moon in Gemini, the Talker

    Feels better after talking it through. Needs conversation, variety and something interesting to think about. 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 3.0°)

  3. How he loves

    Venus in Sagittarius, the Adventurer

    Loves openly and with good humour. Needs freedom, honesty and someone to explore the world with. Words with charm in them: he has an ear for a beautiful phrase, and people like listening to him.

    Mercury conjunction Venus (close at 2.5°)

  4. How he thinks

    Mercury in Sagittarius, the Philosopher

    A wide-ranging mind. Learns by asking, travelling and following a question as far as it goes. Big ideas and loose details: he thinks on a large scale, and the small print is where things get away from him.

    Mercury square Jupiter (close at 1.3°)

  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 2.9°)

  6. The shape of his chart

    In his chart, his mind, his heart and his imagination (Mercury, Venus and Neptune) gather in Sagittarius, and that part of life draws his attention first. In his chart, fire signs hold the most planets: instinct and enthusiasm.
