What his chart says about him

  1. Who he is

    Sun in Taurus, the Gardener

    Unhurried, warm and hard to rattle. Has a gift for comfort, beauty and making things that last. Self-belief comes slowly and has to be earned, one result at a time, and every result counts.

    The Sun opposition Saturn (close at 2.0°)

  2. What he needs

    Moon in Taurus or Aries, the Hearth

    Even-tempered and hard to unsettle. Needs calm, touch and things that stay the same. He loves hard and holds on hard, and letting go takes him a long time.

    The Moon opposition Pluto (almost exact at 0.4°) · For a birth before 7:24 a.m., his Moon was in Aries.

  3. How he loves

    Venus in Aries, the Chaser

    Falls fast and loves the chase. Wants passion, honesty and a partner who keeps up. Charm and desire work together: he knows what he wants in love and how to win it.

    Venus sextile Mars (almost exact at 0.3°)

  4. How he thinks

    Mercury in Taurus, the Careful Thinker

    Thinks slowly and solidly. A mind, once made up, stays made up. He thinks in pictures and music: his words carry a mood, and his imagination gives his ideas colour.

    Mercury trine Neptune (close at 2.4°)

  5. What drives him

    Mars in Gemini, the Multitasker

    Restless, quick and clever. Does several things at once and wins with words. Big drive and big confidence: he goes after large goals, and his enthusiasm carries others along.

    Mars trine Jupiter (close at 1.8°)

  6. The shape of his chart

    In his chart, earth signs hold the most planets: the practical and the solid.
