What his chart says about him

  1. Who he is

    Sun in Sagittarius, the Explorer

    Open, funny and frank. Chases meaning the way other people chase money, with a map half unfolded. His mind and his identity are close together: he speaks as he thinks, and his ideas are part of who he is.

    The Sun conjunction Mercury (close at 1.0°)

  2. What he needs

    Moon in Taurus, the Hearth

    Even-tempered and hard to unsettle. Needs calm, touch and things that stay the same.

  3. How he loves

    Venus in Capricorn or Aquarius, the Loyal Partner

    Loves seriously and steadily. Shows love through commitment and reliability. He loves the unusual: original taste, unexpected friendships and a style all his own.

    Venus sextile Uranus (close at 1.4°) · For a birth after 2:53 p.m., his Venus was in Aquarius.

  4. How he thinks

    Mercury in Sagittarius, the Philosopher

    A wide-ranging mind. Learns by asking, travelling and following a question as far as it goes.

  5. What drives him

    Mars in Virgo, the Craftsperson

    Skilful, hardworking and modest. Gets ahead through practice, precision and getting the details right. Drive and dreams mix uneasily: the goal is clear to him, and the way to it harder to see.

  6. The shape of his chart

    In his chart, his identity, his mind, his independence and his imagination (the Sun, Mercury, Uranus and Neptune) gather in Sagittarius, and that part of life draws his attention first. The weight of his chart sits in fire signs: instinct and enthusiasm.
