What his chart says about him

  1. Who he is

    Sun in Gemini, the Messenger

    A mind that won’t sit still. Lights up at a new idea and loves passing it on before it has cooled. The wish to shine and the wish to be careful need steady adjusting: he moves forward a step, then checks it.

    The Sun quincunx Saturn (close at 1.3°)

  2. What he needs

    Moon in Scorpio or Libra, the Vault

    Feels hard and shows little. Needs loyalty, privacy and a few people worth trusting completely. Feeling and thought speak the same language: he can put a mood into words, and his words carry feeling.

    The Moon trine Mercury (almost exact at 0.7°) · For a birth before 2:20 a.m., his Moon was in Libra.

  3. How he loves

    Venus in Gemini, the Charmer

    Falls for a clever mind. Needs conversation, laughter and variety in love. Charm comes naturally: taste, warmth and a love of beautiful things are close to his core.

    The Sun conjunction Venus (wide at 4.4°)

  4. How he thinks

    Mercury in Cancer, the Remembering Mind

    Thinks with feeling and remembers everything that mattered. Speaks kindly and reads between the lines. He thinks in pictures and music: his words carry a mood, and his imagination gives his ideas colour.

    Mercury trine Neptune (almost exact at 0.3°)

  5. What drives him

    Mars in Aries, the Trailblazer

    Bold, fast and ready for a challenge. Charges at a goal and loves the thrill of starting. Quick and inventive in action: he moves fast, breaks with habit and makes sudden changes work.

    Mars trine Uranus (close at 2.1°)

  6. The shape of his chart

    The Sun is the hub of his chart: it takes part in five of its aspects, more than any other body, so his identity touches everything else in it.
