What his chart says about him

  1. Who he is

    Sun in Libra, the Diplomat

    Fair, charming and good with people. Happiest when things are balanced, pleasant and calm. Independence comes easily: he does things his own way, and people find it refreshing rather than rude.

    The Sun trine Uranus (wide at 3.9°)

  2. What he needs

    Moon in Leo, the Warm Heart

    Proud, warm and loyal in feeling. Needs to be appreciated, and makes loved ones feel like stars.

  3. How he loves

    Venus in Sagittarius, the Adventurer

    Loves freedom, laughter and shared adventures. Wants a partner who is also a travel companion. Loyal in love: he chooses carefully, and what he builds with people lasts.

    Venus trine Saturn (wide at 6.8°)

  4. How he thinks

    Mercury in Scorpio, the Investigator

    Thinks in depth and wants the real story. Says little and notices everything. He thinks fast and speaks faster: his mind likes a contest, and his words have an edge.

    Mercury conjunction Mars (almost exact at 0.4°)

  5. What drives him

    Mars in Scorpio, the Strategist

    Intense, strategic and relentless. Keeps a goal close and doesn’t let it go. A fierce will: he meets opposition head on, and a fight brings out his full strength.

    Mars square Pluto (wide at 3.8°)

  6. The shape of his chart

    In his chart, his feelings, his discipline and his intensity (the Moon, Saturn and Pluto) gather in Leo, and that part of life draws his attention first. No earth at all, so the practical, settled side is the one he has to find.
