What his chart says about him

  1. Who he is

    Sun in Scorpio, the Detective

    Deep, watchful and all in. Trusts slowly, and once trust is given, it is given completely. The self he shows the world and the self he comes home to want different things, and he makes room for both.

    The Sun opposition the Moon (close at 1.6°)

  2. What he needs

    Moon in Taurus or Aries, the Hearth

    Settled by simple, solid comforts: a good meal, a quiet evening, the same people year after year.

    For a birth before 5:17 a.m., his Moon was in Aries.

  3. How he loves

    Venus in Scorpio, the Devotee

    Loves fiercely, privately and for keeps. Wants complete trust and a bond that goes beneath the surface. 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 0.2°)

  4. How he thinks

    Mercury in Scorpio, the Investigator

    Searching and sharp. Asks the question nobody else will and keeps the answers close. He doubts his own ideas before anyone else can, and so he checks every one twice.

    Mercury square Saturn (close at 1.2°)

  5. What drives him

    Mars in Leo, the Leader

    Bold, proud and full of drive. Wants to lead, works hardest on what is dear to him, and wants to be recognised for it. Concentrated force: when he wants something, he goes after it with everything.

    Mars conjunction Pluto (almost exact at 0.7°)

  6. The shape of his chart

    In his chart, his identity, his mind and his heart (the Sun, Mercury and Venus) gather in Scorpio, and that part of life draws his attention first. In his chart, fire signs hold the most planets: instinct and enthusiasm.
