What his chart says about him

  1. Who he is

    Sun in Sagittarius, the Explorer

    Restless in the best way. Wants to see more, learn more and say exactly what is on his mind. His purpose and his feelings are on the same side: the life he chooses and the comfort he needs go together.

    The Sun sextile the Moon (almost exact at 0.1°)

  2. What he needs

    Moon in Aquarius, the Cool Head

    Needs freedom, friendship and room to think. Handles feelings by stepping back and making sense of them. What comforts him and what he loves are different things, so his heart and his moods keep negotiating.

    The Moon square Venus (almost exact at 0.6°)

  3. How he loves

    Venus in Scorpio, the Devotee

    All or nothing in love. Feels intensely and stays loyal to the very end.

  4. How he thinks

    Mercury in Sagittarius, the Philosopher

    Frank, curious and full of opinions. Thinks in big pictures and loves a debate about what really matters. 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 (almost exact at 0.3°)

  5. What drives him

    Mars in Aries, the Trailblazer

    Bold, fast and ready for a challenge. Charges at a goal and loves the thrill of starting. Force and restraint keep trading places, and he learns when to let go.

    Mars quincunx Pluto (almost exact at 0.2°)

  6. The shape of his chart

    In his chart, his identity, his mind and his discipline (the Sun, Mercury and Saturn) gather in Sagittarius, and that part of life draws his attention first. The weight of his chart sits in fire signs: instinct and enthusiasm.
