What his chart says about him
Who he is
Sun in Virgo, the Fixer
Modest about a great deal of skill. Cares through careful, useful help, and has a wit that catches people off guard. Purpose and drive in one place: he is quick to start, quick to compete and hard to stop.
The Sun conjunction Mars (almost exact at 0.2°)
What he needs
Moon in Virgo or Leo, the Mender
Shows feeling in practical ways: a fixed problem, a remembered detail, a cup of tea at the right time.
For a birth before 5:12 a.m., his Moon was in Leo.
How he loves
Venus in Scorpio, the Devotee
Loves fiercely, privately and for keeps. Wants complete trust and a bond that goes beneath the surface. Love comes in sudden starts and stops: he falls for people quickly and needs room just as quickly.
Venus square Uranus (close at 1.1°)
How he thinks
Mercury in Virgo, the Analyst
A careful, exact mind. Spots the flaw, fixes the plan and gets the wording just right. A graceful mind: he speaks kindly and well, and he knows how to say a hard thing gently.
Mercury sextile Venus (close at 2.7°)
What drives him
Mars in Virgo, the Craftsperson
Diligent and exact. Puts effort into doing a thing properly, step by careful step.
The shape of his chart
Uranus is the hub of his chart: it takes part in four of its aspects, more than any other body, so his independence touches everything else in it. Most of his planets are in earth signs: the practical and the solid.
