What his chart says about him

  1. Who he is

    Sun in Aries, the Pioneer

    Happiest going first. Starts things with real nerve and loves a challenge that needs someone brave. He needs room to be himself, and any rule that fits too tightly gets broken.

    The Sun opposition Uranus (close at 2.7°)

  2. What he needs

    Moon in Capricorn, the Steady Hand

    Handles feelings by getting on with things. Needs security, respect and quiet proof of being needed.

  3. How he loves

    Venus in Pisces, the Tender Heart

    Loves with compassion and imagination. Wants a romantic, gentle bond. A generous heart: love and good company come to him easily, and he shares both.

    Venus conjunction Jupiter (close at 1.0°)

  4. How he thinks

    Mercury in Aries, the Spark

    Thinks fast and speaks plainly. Ideas arrive whole and leave his mouth a second later. His words have force: he speaks to persuade, and he keeps his own counsel until the right moment.

    Mercury opposition Pluto (close at 2.0°)

  5. What drives him

    Mars in Gemini, the Multitasker

    Busy, versatile and sharp. Gets moving through talk, travel and a steady supply of new plans. Quick and inventive in action: he moves fast, breaks with habit and makes sudden changes work.

    Mars trine Uranus (almost exact at 0.1°)

  6. The shape of his chart

    Saturn is the hub of his chart: it takes part in five of its aspects, more than any other body, so his discipline touches everything else in it. In his chart, air signs hold the most planets: ideas and people.
