What his chart says about him

  1. Who he is

    Sun in Capricorn, the Architect

    Responsible from an early age. Takes the climb seriously and has a dry humour that comes out once the work is done. His confidence comes easily and spreads: he thinks big, and other people want to come along.

    The Sun trine Jupiter (close at 2.0°)

  2. What he needs

    Moon in Scorpio or Libra, the Vault

    Still on the surface and strong underneath. Holds on to feelings, and to the people who earn them.

    For a birth before 8:45 a.m., his Moon was in Libra.

  3. How he loves

    Venus in Pisces, the Tender Heart

    Loves with compassion and imagination. Wants a romantic, gentle bond. Charm and desire work together: he knows what he wants in love and how to win it.

    Venus sextile Mars (almost exact at 0.5°)

  4. How he thinks

    Mercury in Capricorn, the Planner

    Practical, measured and dryly funny. Trusts experience over theory and gets to the point. He thinks fast and speaks faster: his mind likes a contest, and his words have an edge.

    Mercury conjunction Mars (close at 1.2°)

  5. What drives him

    Mars in Capricorn, the Achiever

    Ambitious, disciplined and patient. Works hard and climbs steadily. Quick and inventive in action: he moves fast, breaks with habit and makes sudden changes work.

    Mars sextile Uranus (close at 1.9°)

  6. The shape of his chart

    In his chart, his identity, his mind and his drive (the Sun, Mercury and Mars) gather in Capricorn, and that part of life draws his attention first. The weight of his chart sits in earth signs: the practical and the solid.
