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. He reaches for more than one life can hold: big plans, big promises, and a habit of saying yes before counting the hours.

    The Sun square Jupiter (close at 2.6°)

  2. What he needs

    Moon in Taurus, the Hearth

    Settled by simple, solid comforts: a good meal, a quiet evening, the same people year after year. What comforts him and what he loves are different things, so his heart and his moods keep negotiating.

    The Moon square Venus (close at 1.5°)

  3. How he loves

    Venus in Leo, the Romantic

    Grand in affection and fiercely loyal. Likes to celebrate the people dearest to him. A romantic with an artist’s eye: he sees the beauty in people and makes it visible to others.

    Venus sextile Neptune (almost exact at 0.4°)

  4. How he thinks

    Mercury in Cancer, the Remembering Mind

    Thinks through feeling and memory. Listens well and remembers exactly how something was said.

  5. What drives him

    Mars in Gemini, the Multitasker

    Restless, quick and clever. Does several things at once and wins with words. Electric: he acts on impulse, loves a risk and refuses to be told what to do.

    Mars conjunction Uranus (close at 2.1°)

  6. The shape of his chart

    In his chart, his identity, his heart, his discipline and his intensity (the Sun, Venus, 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.
