What his chart says about him

  1. Who he is

    Sun in Scorpio, the Detective

    Deep, watchful and all in. Trusts slowly, and once trust is given, it is given completely. A quiet strength: under pressure he grows more focused, and he knows how to start over.

    The Sun sextile Pluto (close at 2.3°)

  2. What he needs

    Moon in Leo or Cancer, the Warm Heart

    Proud, warm and loyal in feeling. Needs to be appreciated, and makes loved ones feel like stars. His feelings run large: he wants more comfort, more company and more of everything than any one day gives.

    The Moon opposition Jupiter (wide at 3.7°) · For a birth before 5:30 a.m., his Moon was in Cancer.

  3. How he loves

    Venus in Libra, the Sweetheart

    Happiest as half of a well-matched pair. Brings charm, fairness and courtesy to love. Words with charm in them: he has an ear for a beautiful phrase, and people like listening to him.

    Mercury conjunction Venus (wide at 6.4°)

  4. How he thinks

    Mercury in Libra, the Mediator

    A fair, sociable mind. Thinks best in conversation and dislikes a cruel word. He doubts his own ideas before anyone else can, and so he checks every one twice.

  5. What drives him

    Mars in Scorpio, the Strategist

    Determined, focused and private. Plans quietly and never forgets a goal. 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 identity, his drive and his imagination (the Sun, Mars and Neptune) gather in Scorpio, and that part of life draws his attention first.
