What his chart says about him

  1. Who he is

    Sun in Aries, the Pioneer

    Built to begin. Says yes before the plan is finished and gets everyone else moving. Purpose and patience work as a team: he builds slowly and gets better with every year.

    The Sun sextile Saturn (almost exact at 0.4°)

  2. What he needs

    Moon in Aquarius or Capricorn, the Cool Head

    Needs freedom, friendship and room to think. Handles feelings by stepping back and making sense of them.

    For a birth before 10:44 a.m., his Moon was in Capricorn.

  3. How he loves

    Venus in Aries, the Chaser

    Falls quickly and wholeheartedly. Needs passion and a little challenge to stay interested. He loves the unusual: original taste, unexpected friendships and a style all his own.

    Venus trine Uranus (close at 2.0°)

  4. How he thinks

    Mercury in Pisces, the Poet

    Dreamy and perceptive. Remembers how a moment felt better than what was said in it.

  5. 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 works for ideals: his drive comes alive for a cause, a role or a dream.

    Mars trine Neptune (close at 1.5°)

  6. The shape of his chart

    In his chart, his mind, his drive and his optimism (Mercury, Mars and Jupiter) gather in Pisces, and that part of life draws his attention first. In his chart, water signs hold the most planets: feeling and intuition.
