What his chart says about him
Who he is
Sun in Virgo, the Fixer
Sharp-eyed and quietly kind. Sees how a thing could work better and rolls up his sleeves to fix it. Intensity at the centre: he wants the whole truth about everything, himself first, and he remakes himself more than once to reach it.
The Sun conjunction Pluto (exact at 0.0°)
What he needs
Moon in Capricorn, the Steady Hand
Keeps feelings under control and feels safest when life is organised and secure. His feelings turn straight into action: when something matters, he does something about it.
The Moon trine Mars (close at 1.6°)
How he loves
Venus in Leo, the Romantic
Grand in affection and fiercely loyal. Likes to celebrate the people dearest to him. Love at first sight, and freedom after it: the different and the new win his heart.
Venus conjunction Uranus (close at 1.4°)
How he thinks
Mercury in Leo, the Storyteller
Confident, warm and persuasive. Likes an audience and has the words to keep one. A generous, wide-ranging mind: he learns easily, tells a good story and sees the big picture.
Mercury sextile Jupiter (almost exact at 0.3°)
What drives him
Mars in Taurus, the Stayer
Steady, strong and very patient. He keeps going long after others stop. When to push and when to wait takes constant judging, and he learns timing the hard way.
Mars quincunx Saturn (close at 1.0°)
