What his chart says about him

  1. Who he is

    Sun in Gemini, the Messenger

    A mind that won’t sit still. Lights up at a new idea and loves passing it on before it has cooled. Nothing about him is halfway: he insists on running his own life, and the struggle makes him formidable.

  2. What he needs

    Moon in Scorpio or Sagittarius, the Vault

    Feels hard and shows little. Needs loyalty, privacy and a few people worth trusting completely. The self he shows the world and the self he comes home to want different things, and he makes room for both.

    The Sun opposition the Moon (close at 1.1°) · For a birth after 12:51 p.m., his Moon was in Sagittarius.

  3. How he loves

    Venus in Cancer, the Nurturer

    Loves by caring and protecting. Wants a partner who feels like home. A graceful mind: he speaks kindly and well, and he knows how to say a hard thing gently.

  4. How he thinks

    Mercury in Taurus, the Careful Thinker

    A steady, sensible mind. Learns by doing and remembers what was learned. His mind runs ahead of the conversation: he says the unexpected thing, and not everyone is ready to hear it.

  5. What drives him

    Mars in Cancer, the Defender

    Driven by feeling. Goes the furthest for something personal, and guards home fiercely. Big drive and big confidence: he goes after large goals, and his enthusiasm carries others along.

    Mars trine Jupiter (close at 2.4°)

  6. The shape of his chart

    The Sun is the hub of his chart: it takes part in five of its aspects, more than any other body, so his identity touches everything else in it. Most of his planets are in water signs: feeling and intuition.
