What his chart says about him

  1. Who he is

    Sun in Leo, the Bright One

    Big-hearted and bright. Brings warmth into a room and loves to see other people do well. Serious from early on: purpose and duty are one thing to him, and he treats his own life as work to be done well.

    The Sun conjunction Saturn (close at 1.0°)

  2. What he needs

    Moon in Pisces or Aquarius, the Tide

    Sensitive to everything and quick to sympathise. Finds rest in art, water, dreams and kind company. His head and his feelings argue: he knows what he thinks before he knows what he feels, or the other way round.

    The Moon opposition Mercury (almost exact at 0.6°) · For a birth before 1:24 a.m., his Moon was in Aquarius.

  3. How he loves

    Venus in Cancer, the Nurturer

    Loves by caring and protecting. Wants a partner who feels like home. He loves the dream of a person, and the real one has to compete with it.

  4. How he thinks

    Mercury in Virgo, the Analyst

    Clever, methodical and useful. Turns a muddle into a list and the list into results. His mind and his identity are close together: he speaks as he thinks, and his ideas are part of who he is.

    The Sun conjunction Mercury (wide at 8.6°)

  5. What drives him

    Mars in Libra, the Negotiator

    Works best alongside others. Prefers diplomacy to battle, and fights for justice when it counts. Big drive and big confidence: he goes after large goals, and his enthusiasm carries others along.

    Mars sextile Jupiter (close at 1.7°)

  6. The shape of his chart

    In his chart, his identity, his discipline and his intensity (the Sun, Saturn and Pluto) gather in Leo, and that part of life draws his attention first. In his chart, fire signs hold the most planets: instinct and enthusiasm.
