What his chart says about him
Who he is
Sun in Aquarius, the Free Thinker
Independent, inventive and quietly idealistic. Asks why things are done this way and imagines a better one. His purpose and his drive work together: once he decides on something, he moves on it fast.
The Sun trine Mars (almost exact at 0.2°)
What he needs
Moon in Pisces or Aquarius, the Tide
Soaks up the feelings around him. Needs gentleness, music and time alone to come back to himself.
For a birth before 8:48 a.m., his Moon was in Aquarius.
How he loves
Venus in Sagittarius, the Adventurer
Loves freedom, laughter and shared adventures. Wants a partner who is also a travel companion. He loves the dream of a person, and the real one has to compete with it.
Venus square Neptune (wide at 4.9°)
How he thinks
Mercury in Capricorn, the Planner
Thinks practically and plans ahead. Speaks with authority and a dry sense of humour.
What drives him
Mars in Gemini, the Multitasker
Busy, versatile and sharp. Gets moving through talk, travel and a steady supply of new plans. Stamina and willpower: he keeps going long after others stop, and he does his best work under pressure.
Mars sextile Pluto (close at 1.0°)
The shape of his chart
In his chart, his drive, his discipline and his independence (Mars, Saturn and Uranus) gather in Gemini, and that part of life draws his attention first. Most of his planets are in air signs: ideas and people.
