What his chart says about him

  1. Who he is

    Sun in Scorpio, the Detective

    Deep, watchful and all in. Trusts slowly, and once trust is given, it is given completely. His mind and his identity are close together: he speaks as he thinks, and his ideas are part of who he is.

    The Sun conjunction Mercury (wide at 7.1°)

  2. What he needs

    Moon in Virgo, the Mender

    Settles worry by doing something useful. Needs order, routine and a job done well.

  3. How he loves

    Venus in Libra, the Sweetheart

    Made for partnership. Loves beauty, fairness and romance. A generous heart: love and good company come to him easily, and he shares both.

    Venus conjunction Jupiter (almost exact at 0.6°)

  4. How he thinks

    Mercury in Scorpio, the Investigator

    Searching and sharp. Asks the question nobody else will and keeps the answers close. He doubts his own ideas before anyone else can, and so he checks every one twice.

    Mercury opposition Saturn (almost exact at 0.1°)

  5. What drives him

    Mars in Capricorn or Aquarius, the Achiever

    Ambitious, disciplined and patient. Works hard and climbs steadily. He works for ideals: his drive comes alive for a cause, a role or a dream.

    Mars sextile Neptune (close at 2.1°) · For a birth after 12:51 p.m., his Mars was in Aquarius.

  6. The shape of his chart

    In his chart, his identity, his mind and his imagination (the Sun, Mercury and Neptune) gather in Scorpio, and that part of life draws his attention first. No fire at all, so the bold first move comes by choice rather than by instinct.
