What his chart says about him

  1. Who he is

    Sun in Aries, the Pioneer

    Happiest going first. Starts things with real nerve and loves a challenge that needs someone brave. A quiet strength: under pressure he grows more focused, and he knows how to start over.

    The Sun trine Pluto (close at 1.4°)

  2. What he needs

    Moon in Gemini, the Talker

    Feels better after talking it through. Needs conversation, variety and something interesting to think about. Big feelings and a big heart: his good moods lift everyone near, and he gives comfort freely.

  3. How he loves

    Venus in Aquarius, the Kindred Spirit

    Loves as a friend first. Values honesty, freedom and a partner who is fully his own person. He puts people at ease without trying: kindness and charm come from the same place.

    The Moon trine Venus (wide at 3.1°)

  4. How he thinks

    Mercury in Pisces, the Poet

    Dreamy and perceptive. Remembers how a moment felt better than what was said in it. Sharp words and a sharp mind: he argues well, sometimes too well, and a debate is a kind of sport to him.

    Mercury square Mars (almost exact at 0.6°)

  5. What drives him

    Mars in Gemini, the Multitasker

    Busy, versatile and sharp. Gets moving through talk, travel and a steady supply of new plans. Enthusiasm at full speed: he charges at life with confidence, and setbacks slow him only briefly.

    Mars conjunction Jupiter (wide at 5.2°)

  6. The shape of his chart

    In his chart, his feelings, his drive and his optimism (the Moon, Mars and Jupiter) gather in Gemini, and that part of life draws his attention first. In his chart, air signs hold the most planets: ideas and people.
