What his chart says about him

  1. Who he is

    Sun in Sagittarius, the Explorer

    Open, funny and frank. Chases meaning the way other people chase money, with a map half unfolded. His purpose and his drive work together: once he decides on something, he moves on it fast.

    The Sun sextile Mars (close at 1.4°)

  2. What he needs

    Moon in Libra or Virgo, the Peacemaker

    Unsettled by conflict and soothed by kindness. Needs good company and a sense that things are fair.

    For a birth before 1:52 a.m., his Moon was in Virgo.

  3. How he loves

    Venus in Aquarius, the Kindred Spirit

    Unconventional in love. Drawn to the original and the independent, and needs room inside closeness. Love comes with high stakes: intense attachments, and a need to know exactly where he stands.

  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 (wide at 3.1°)

  5. What drives him

    Mars in Aquarius, the Rebel

    Independent and inventive in action. Fights for the group, the future and a fairer way. Drive with the brakes on: he wants to move, something holds him back, and the friction makes him tough.

    Mars square Saturn (almost exact at 0.1°)

  6. The shape of his chart

    In his chart, his identity, his mind and his independence (the Sun, Mercury and Uranus) gather in Sagittarius, and that part of life draws his attention first.
