Reid Hoffman’s birth chart

What his chart says about him

1. Who he is

   ☉Sun in Leo, the Bright One

   Warm, generous and made to be seen. Makes a room feel brighter and wants the people in it to shine too. More sensitive to criticism than it looks. Purpose and patience work as a team: he builds slowly and gets better with every year.

   The Sun trine Saturn (almost exact at 0.3°)

2. What he needs

   ☽Moon in Leo, the Warm Heart

   Wears his heart where people can see it. Needs warmth, praise and a little attention, and gives all three back. Quick feelings and a quick temper: he reacts first, and his courage comes from the same place as his flashes of anger.

   The Moon square Mars (almost exact at 0.2°)

3. How he loves

   ♀Venus in Virgo, the Quiet Romantic

   Shows love through care, help and attention to small things. He keeps weighing pleasure against duty, and joy comes once the work is done.

   Venus quincunx Saturn (close at 1.4°)

4. How he thinks

   ☿Mercury in Cancer, the Remembering Mind

   A mind tuned to people. Hears what sits under the words and answers it gently. A quick, original mind: ideas arrive in flashes, and he sees answers others miss.

   Mercury sextile Uranus (close at 2.7°)

5. What drives him

   ♂Mars in Scorpio, the Strategist

   Quietly powerful. Works in private, holds nothing back, and does not give up. He fights hard for what he wants, and his temper is part of his courage.

   The Sun square Mars (wide at 4.0°)

6. The shape of his chart

   In his chart, his identity, his feelings and his optimism (the Sun, the Moon and Jupiter) gather in Leo, and that part of life draws his attention first. No air at all, so stepping back to talk a thing through takes deliberate effort.
