What his chart says about him

  1. Who he is

    Sun in Capricorn, the Architect

    Responsible from an early age. Takes the climb seriously and has a dry humour that comes out once the work is done. Self-belief comes slowly and has to be earned, one result at a time, and every result counts.

    The Sun square Saturn (close at 1.1°)

  2. What he needs

    Moon in Taurus, the Hearth

    Calm, warm and steady. Feels safest with good food, soft things and a familiar routine, and makes everyone around him feel the same. He loves hard and holds on hard, and letting go takes him a long time.

    The Moon square Pluto (almost exact at 0.7°)

  3. How he loves

    Venus in Sagittarius, the Adventurer

    Loves freedom, laughter and shared adventures. Wants a partner who is also a travel companion. Affection comes to him with generosity attached: his heart and his optimism help each other.

    Venus trine Jupiter (close at 1.4°)

  4. How he thinks

    Mercury in Sagittarius, the Philosopher

    Frank, curious and full of opinions. Thinks in big pictures and loves a debate about what really matters. A quick, direct mind: he makes decisions fast and says what he means.

    Mercury sextile Mars (almost exact at 0.9°)

  5. What drives him

    Mars in Libra, the Negotiator

    Persuasive rather than forceful. Wins people over and stands up hardest for what is fair. Action guided by imagination: he moves on instinct and feeling, and he gives his all to a vision.

    Mars conjunction Neptune (close at 2.1°)

  6. The shape of his chart

    In his chart, his drive, his discipline and his imagination (Mars, Saturn and Neptune) gather in Libra, and that part of life draws his attention first. In his chart, fire signs hold the most planets: instinct and enthusiasm.
