Sam Ryder’s birth chart

What his chart says about him

1. Who he is

   ☉Sun in Cancer, the Protector

   Tender under a careful shell. Makes a home anywhere and guards the people inside it. He needs room to be himself, and any rule that fits too tightly gets broken.

   The Sun opposition Uranus (almost exact at 0.5°)

2. What he needs

   ☽Moon in Pisces, the Tide

   Sensitive to everything and quick to sympathise. Finds rest in art, water, dreams and kind company. His feelings run large: he wants more comfort, more company and more of everything than any one day gives.

   The Moon square Jupiter (almost exact at 0.5°)

3. How he loves

   ♀Venus in Cancer, the Nurturer

   Shows love by looking after people. Needs a partner who feels like a safe harbour.

4. How he thinks

   ☿Mercury in Gemini, the Quick Wit

   Fast, curious and funny. Thinks out loud and collects ideas from everywhere. What he knows and what he says need careful managing, and secrets sit uneasily with him.

   Mercury quincunx Pluto (almost exact at 0.1°)

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. Effort and restlessness keep catching each other off guard, and his plans change at short notice.

   Mars quincunx Uranus (close at 2.2°)

6. The shape of his chart

   In his chart, his discipline, his independence and his imagination (Saturn, Uranus and Neptune) gather in Capricorn, and that part of life draws his attention first. The weight of his chart sits in water signs: feeling and intuition.
