What his chart says about him
Who he is
Sun in Sagittarius or Scorpio, the Explorer
Open, funny and frank. Chases meaning the way other people chase money, with a map half unfolded. The self he shows the world and the self he comes home to want different things, and he makes room for both.
The Sun square the Moon (almost exact at 0.7°) · For a birth before 4:49 a.m., his Sun was in Scorpio.
What he needs
Moon in Virgo or Leo, the Mender
Shows feeling in practical ways: a fixed problem, a remembered detail, a cup of tea at the right time. His feelings turn straight into action: when something matters, he does something about it.
The Moon sextile Mars (almost exact at 0.3°) · For a birth before 10:11 a.m., his Moon was in Leo.
How he loves
Venus in Libra, the Sweetheart
Graceful, warm and drawn to harmony. Loves romance, beauty and a true partnership of equals. Affection and independence need constant trading off, and he keeps renegotiating the terms of his relationships.
Venus quincunx Uranus (close at 1.5°)
How he thinks

Searching and sharp. Asks the question nobody else will and keeps the answers close. He doubts his own ideas before anyone else can, and so he checks every one twice.
Mercury opposition Saturn (close at 2.4°)
What drives him
Mars in Scorpio, the Strategist
Determined, focused and private. Plans quietly and never forgets a goal. A fierce will: he meets opposition head on, and a fight brings out his full strength.

The shape of his chart
