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. His purpose and his drive work together: once he decides on something, he moves on it fast.

    The Sun trine Mars (wide at 5.2°)

  2. What he needs

    Moon in Aquarius, the Cool Head

    Needs freedom, friendship and room to think. Handles feelings by stepping back and making sense of them. He loves hard and holds on hard, and letting go takes him a long time.

    The Moon opposition Pluto (exact at 0.0°)

  3. How he loves

    Venus in Virgo, the Quiet Romantic

    Loves quietly and attentively. Shows care through thoughtful help and remembering the small things. Love comes in sudden starts and stops: he falls for people quickly and needs room just as quickly.

    Venus square Uranus (close at 1.9°)

  4. How he thinks

    Mercury in Virgo, the Analyst

    A careful, exact mind. Spots the flaw, fixes the plan and gets the wording just right. He doubts his own ideas before anyone else can, and so he checks every one twice.

    Mercury square Saturn (almost exact at 0.1°)

  5. What drives him

    Mars in Gemini, the Multitasker

    Busy, versatile and sharp. Gets moving through talk, travel and a steady supply of new plans. Big drive and big confidence: he goes after large goals, and his enthusiasm carries others along.

    Mars sextile Jupiter (close at 1.1°)

  6. The shape of his chart

    In his chart, his drive, his discipline and his independence (Mars, Saturn and Uranus) gather in Gemini, and that part of life draws his attention first. No water at all, so feelings come out in actions more than in words.
