What his chart says about him

  1. Who he is

    Sun in Leo, the Bright One

    Warm, generous and made to be seen. Makes a room feel brighter and wants the people in it to shine too. More sensitive to criticism than it looks. Charm comes naturally: taste, warmth and a love of beautiful things are close to his core.

  2. What he needs

    Moon in Libra, the Peacemaker

    Unsettled by conflict and soothed by kindness. Needs good company and a sense that things are fair. His feelings run hot and fast, and he protects the people he loves fiercely.

  3. How he loves

    Venus in Leo, the Romantic

    Loves with warmth, pride and a generous heart. Wants romance, admiration and loyalty in return.

  4. How he thinks

    Mercury in Virgo, the Analyst

    Precise, practical and clever. Notices the detail everyone else missed.

  5. What drives him

    Mars in Libra, the Negotiator

    Works best alongside others. Prefers diplomacy to battle, and fights for justice when it counts. His drive and his discipline work together easily: he can push hard and keep going.

  6. The shape of his chart

    In his chart, his mind, his independence and his intensity (Mercury, Uranus and Pluto) gather in Virgo, and that part of life draws his attention first.
