What his chart says about him

  1. Who he is

    Sun in Aries, the Pioneer

    Direct, brave and impatient with waiting. At his best with a fresh start and a door nobody has opened yet. Independence comes easily: he does things his own way, and people find it refreshing rather than rude.

    The Sun trine Uranus (almost exact at 0.9°)

  2. What he needs

    Moon in Aries, the Quick Flame

    Quick to feel and quick to forgive. Needs to say it, do something about it and move on. He puts people at ease without trying: kindness and charm come from the same place.

    The Moon sextile Venus (almost exact at 0.3°)

  3. How he loves

    Venus in Aquarius, the Kindred Spirit

    Loves friend-first. Falls for a mind, needs room to breathe, and is drawn to people who are a little different. Loyal in love: he chooses carefully, and what he builds with people lasts.

    Venus trine Saturn (almost exact at 0.8°)

  4. How he thinks

    Mercury in Pisces, the Poet

    An intuitive, imaginative mind. Thinks in images and picks up what is left unsaid. Speaking freely and speaking carefully take constant balancing, and he weighs words before letting them go.

    Mercury quincunx Saturn (almost exact at 0.3°)

  5. What drives him

    Mars in Libra, the Negotiator

    Gets things done through people, charm and fairness. Prefers teamwork to a fight, and fights hardest for others. He fights hard for what he wants, and his temper is part of his courage.

    The Sun opposition Mars (wide at 6.8°)

  6. The shape of his chart

    In his chart, his drive, his discipline and his intensity (Mars, Saturn and Pluto) gather in Libra, and that part of life draws his attention first. No earth at all, so the practical, settled side is the one he has to find.
