What his chart says about him

  1. Who he is

    Sun in Pisces, the Dreamer

    Soft-hearted and full of imagination. Picks up on feelings nobody has said out loud. He fights hard for what he wants, and his temper is part of his courage.

    The Sun square Mars (close at 1.8°)

  2. What he needs

    Moon in Sagittarius, the Free Spirit

    Feels best with space, laughter and something to look forward to. Gets restless when fenced in. His head and his feelings argue: he knows what he thinks before he knows what he feels, or the other way round.

    The Moon square Mercury (close at 1.0°)

  3. How he loves

    Venus in Pisces, the Tender Heart

    Loves with compassion and imagination. Wants a romantic, gentle bond. Words with charm in them: he has an ear for a beautiful phrase, and people like listening to him.

    Mercury conjunction Venus (almost exact at 0.7°)

  4. How he thinks

    Mercury in Pisces, the Poet

    An intuitive, imaginative mind. Thinks in images and picks up what is left unsaid. Big ideas and loose details: he thinks on a large scale, and the small print is where things get away from him.

  5. What drives him

    Mars in Sagittarius, the Champion

    Goes after big goals with enthusiasm and a strong sense of right. His feelings run hot and fast, and he protects the people he loves fiercely.

    The Moon conjunction Mars (wide at 3.2°)

  6. The shape of his chart

    In his chart, his identity, his mind and his heart (the Sun, Mercury and Venus) gather in Pisces, 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.
