What his chart says about him

  1. Who he is

    Sun in Leo, the Bright One

    Warm, generous and made to be seen. Makes a room feel brighter and wants the people in it to shine too. More sensitive to criticism than it looks. Purpose and patience work as a team: he builds slowly and gets better with every year.

    The Sun sextile Saturn (close at 2.3°)

  2. What he needs

    Moon in Aquarius, the Cool Head

    Calm in a crisis, private about feelings. Comfort comes from friendship, ideas and space of his own.

  3. How he loves

    Venus in Leo, the Romantic

    Loves big, loyally and warmly. Wants to adore and be adored. Words with charm in them: he has an ear for a beautiful phrase, and people like listening to him.

    Mercury conjunction Venus (almost exact at 0.9°)

  4. How he thinks

    Mercury in Leo, the Storyteller

    Speaks with warmth and confidence and tells a great story. Thinks in big, bold ideas. He thinks like a detective: nothing is taken at face value, and he remembers everything.

    Mercury conjunction Pluto (wide at 4.4°)

  5. What drives him

    Mars in Scorpio, the Strategist

    Determined, focused and private. Plans quietly and never forgets a goal. He takes on more than any one person can, and his boldness runs ahead of his plans.

    Mars opposition Jupiter (close at 1.4°)

  6. The shape of his chart

    In his chart, his identity, his mind, his heart and his intensity (the Sun, Mercury, Venus and Pluto) gather in Leo, and that part of life draws his attention first. The weight of his chart sits in fire signs: instinct and enthusiasm.
