What his chart says about him

  1. Who he is

    Sun in Aquarius, the Free Thinker

    Original, independent and fair. Thinks about how things could work better for everyone. Independence comes easily: he does things his own way, and people find it refreshing rather than rude.

    The Sun trine Uranus (almost exact at 0.1°)

  2. What he needs

    Moon in Sagittarius or Capricorn, the Free Spirit

    Restless and good-humoured. Feels best with a plan for the next adventure and the freedom to change it. Feelings come second to duty: he holds himself to a high standard, even in private.

    The Moon opposition Saturn (almost exact at 0.5°) · For a birth after 3:16 p.m., his Moon was in Capricorn.

  3. How he loves

    Venus in Capricorn, the Loyal Partner

    Loves with steadiness and staying power. Takes commitment seriously and builds something lasting. Love comes in sudden starts and stops: he falls for people quickly and needs room just as quickly.

  4. How he thinks

    Mercury in Pisces, the Poet

    Thinks in pictures and feelings. Understands people without needing many words. Facts and dreams blur together in his mind: wonderful for stories, harder when details matter.

    Mercury square Neptune (close at 2.3°)

  5. What drives him

    Mars in Taurus, the Stayer

    Slow and sure. He does not rush, and he is hard to push off course. He takes on more than any one person can, and his boldness runs ahead of his plans.

    Mars square Jupiter (close at 1.1°)

  6. The shape of his chart

    The weight of his chart sits in air signs: ideas and people.
