What his chart says about him

  1. Who he is

    Sun in Sagittarius, the Explorer

    Restless in the best way. Wants to see more, learn more and say exactly what is on his mind. Purpose and drive in one place: he is quick to start, quick to compete and hard to stop.

    The Sun conjunction Mars (wide at 4.8°)

  2. What he needs

    Moon in Scorpio or Libra, the Vault

    Still on the surface and strong underneath. Holds on to feelings, and to the people who earn them.

    For a birth before 4:43 a.m., his Moon was in Libra.

  3. How he loves

    Venus in Scorpio, the Devotee

    Loves intensely and loyally. Wants a close, honest bond and nothing less. Affection and independence need constant trading off, and he keeps renegotiating the terms of his relationships.

    Venus quincunx Uranus (almost exact at 0.3°)

  4. How he thinks

    Mercury in Sagittarius, the Philosopher

    Thinks big and speaks frankly. Loves ideas, learning and talking about what things mean. A patient, exact mind: he chooses every word, and his thinking gets sharper with practice.

    Mercury trine Saturn (almost exact at 0.7°)

  5. What drives him

    Mars in Capricorn, the Achiever

    Disciplined and steady. Plans the route, does the work and gets there in the end.

  6. The shape of his chart

    Pluto is the hub of his chart: it takes part in six of its aspects, more than any other body, so his intensity touches everything else in it. In his chart, fire signs hold the most planets: instinct and enthusiasm.
