What his chart says about him

  1. Who he is

    Sun in Capricorn, the Architect

    Serious, capable and ambitious. Builds a life step by step, and gets more playful and lighter with age. Optimism at the centre of him: he expects things to go well, and that confidence wins people over.

    The Sun conjunction Jupiter (wide at 5.8°)

  2. What he needs

    Moon in Cancer, the Nest-Maker

    Tender, protective and sensitive to mood. Comfort comes from family, old friends and familiar rooms. His feelings run large: he wants more comfort, more company and more of everything than any one day gives.

    The Moon opposition Jupiter (almost exact at 0.7°)

  3. How he loves

    Venus in Pisces, the Tender Heart

    Loves with compassion and imagination. Wants a romantic, gentle bond. He loves with depth and loyalty, and the bonds he forms change both people.

    Venus trine Pluto (almost exact at 0.9°)

  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. A poet’s mind: he hears what goes unsaid, and his best ideas come from somewhere hard to explain.

    Mercury conjunction Neptune (wide at 7.0°)

  5. What drives him

    Mars in Pisces, the Gentle Warrior

    Moves by intuition and feeling. Finds strength in service and in standing up for someone else. Stamina and willpower: he keeps going long after others stop, and he does his best work under pressure.

    Mars trine Pluto (wide at 5.6°)

  6. The shape of his chart

    In his chart, his identity, his optimism and his imagination (the Sun, Jupiter and Neptune) gather in Capricorn, and that part of life draws his attention first. No air at all, so stepping back to talk a thing through takes deliberate effort.
