What his chart says about him

  1. Who he is

    Sun in Cancer, the Protector

    Remembers birthdays, old jokes and who needed help. Loyalty runs deep, and so does the need to belong. Nothing about him is halfway: he insists on running his own life, and the struggle makes him formidable.

    The Sun square Pluto (wide at 4.5°)

  2. What he needs

    Moon in Aries or Taurus, the Quick Flame

    Quick to feel and quick to forgive. Needs to say it, do something about it and move on.

    For a birth after 1:31 p.m., his Moon was in Taurus.

  3. How he loves

    Venus in Gemini, the Charmer

    Falls for a clever mind. Needs conversation, laughter and variety in love. He loves with depth and loyalty, and the bonds he forms change both people.

    Venus trine Pluto (close at 2.9°)

  4. How he thinks

    Mercury in Cancer, the Remembering Mind

    Thinks through feeling and memory. Listens well and remembers exactly how something was said. A patient, exact mind: he chooses every word, and his thinking gets sharper with practice.

    Mercury sextile Saturn (close at 1.0°)

  5. What drives him

    Mars in Virgo, the Craftsperson

    Works carefully and precisely. Gets results through skill and attention to detail. Controlled force: he works with patience and grit, and he finishes what he starts.

  6. The shape of his chart

    In his chart, his drive, his optimism and his discipline (Mars, Jupiter and Saturn) gather in Virgo, and that part of life draws his attention first.
