What his chart says about him

  1. Who he is

    Sun in Gemini, the Messenger

    Quick, curious and good company. Collects facts, friends and stories, and can talk to anyone about almost anything. The self he knows and the image others see drift apart at times, and he works to keep hold of the real one.

    The Sun opposition Neptune (wide at 3.9°)

  2. What he needs

    Moon in Cancer, the Nest-Maker

    Tender, protective and sensitive to mood. Comfort comes from family, old friends and familiar rooms. Feeling and thought speak the same language: he can put a mood into words, and his words carry feeling.

    The Moon sextile Mercury (almost exact at 0.9°)

  3. How he loves

    Venus in Taurus, the Keeper

    Slow to fall and slow to leave. Wants a love that feels safe, warm and real. In love he wants tenderness and a chase at once, and his relationships are rarely calm.

    Venus square Mars (almost exact at 0.4°)

  4. How he thinks

    Mercury in Taurus, the Careful Thinker

    Thinks slowly and solidly. A mind, once made up, stays made up. Sharp words and a sharp mind: he argues well, sometimes too well, and a debate is a kind of sport to him.

    Mercury square Mars (close at 1.0°)

  5. What drives him

    Mars in Aquarius, the Rebel

    Driven by ideas and causes. Breaks with convention and pushes for something new. Quick and inventive in action: he moves fast, breaks with habit and makes sudden changes work.

    Mars trine Uranus (close at 1.6°)

  6. The shape of his chart

    In his chart, his mind, his heart and his discipline (Mercury, Venus and Saturn) gather in Taurus, and that part of life draws his attention first. In his chart, earth signs hold the most planets: the practical and the solid.
