What his chart says about him
Who he is
Sun in Capricorn, the Architect
Patient and determined. Plays the long game, earns respect slowly, and grows warmer and more playful with the years. A quiet strength: under pressure he grows more focused, and he knows how to start over.
The Sun trine Pluto (almost exact at 0.8°)
What he needs
Moon in Cancer, the Nest-Maker
Feels everything and holds on to what matters. Needs a place to come home to and people who stay.
How he loves
Venus in Sagittarius, the Adventurer
Loves openly and with good humour. Needs freedom, honesty and someone to explore the world with.
How he thinks
Mercury in Aquarius, the Inventor
An inventive, independent mind. Sees patterns others miss and questions the usual way of doing things. The facts and the bigger picture need constant reconciling, and he keeps checking one against the other.
Mercury quincunx Jupiter (almost exact at 0.9°)
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. He takes on more than any one person can, and his boldness runs ahead of his plans.
Mars opposition Jupiter (almost exact at 0.8°)
The shape of his chart
In his chart, his optimism, his independence and his intensity (Jupiter, Uranus and Pluto) gather in Virgo, and that part of life draws his attention first. The weight of his chart sits in earth signs: the practical and the solid.
