What his chart says about him
Who he is
Sun in Sagittarius, the Explorer
Restless in the best way. Wants to see more, learn more and say exactly what is on his mind. Independence comes easily: he does things his own way, and people find it refreshing rather than rude.
The Sun sextile Uranus (close at 1.2°)
What he needs
Moon in Libra, the Peacemaker
Feels most at peace when the people around him are at peace. Needs beauty, balance and someone to share things with. He picks up what others feel before a word is said, and his compassion reaches far.
The Moon sextile Neptune (almost exact at 0.1°)
How he loves
Venus in Aquarius, the Kindred Spirit
Loves friend-first. Falls for a mind, needs room to breathe, and is drawn to people who are a little different. He loves with depth and loyalty, and the bonds he forms change both people.
Venus trine Pluto (almost exact at 0.3°)
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. A generous, wide-ranging mind: he learns easily, tells a good story and sees the big picture.
Mercury sextile Jupiter (close at 1.7°)
What drives him
Mars in Aries, the Trailblazer
Pure forward motion. Brave, competitive and happiest in the middle of the action. Restless and quick to rebel: he pushes against limits, and sudden decisions come with the territory.
Mars opposition Uranus (close at 1.3°)
The shape of his chart
In his chart, his identity, his mind and his imagination (the Sun, Mercury and Neptune) gather in Sagittarius, 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.
The sky the day he was born
The Moon
