What his chart says about him

  1. Who he is

    Sun in Libra, the Diplomat

    Drawn to beauty, good manners and a fair deal. Works best with a partner and hates a needless fight. Imagination and identity work together: he can become a character, a mood or an idea, and make others believe in it.

    The Sun sextile Neptune (wide at 4.0°)

  2. What he needs

    Moon in Scorpio, the Vault

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

  3. How he loves

    Venus in Virgo, the Quiet Romantic

    Modest in love and devoted to the bone. Proves feelings through actions rather than speeches. He loves the unusual: original taste, unexpected friendships and a style all his own.

    Venus sextile Uranus (almost exact at 0.2°)

  4. How he thinks

    Mercury in Libra, the Mediator

    Thinks in terms of fairness and sees both sides. Speaks with tact and grace. Big ideas and loose details: he thinks on a large scale, and the small print is where things get away from him.

    Mercury opposition Jupiter (close at 2.6°)

  5. What drives him

    Mars in Gemini, the Multitasker

    Quick, clever and busy. Gets things done through talk, ideas and juggling several jobs. Quick and inventive in action: he moves fast, breaks with habit and makes sudden changes work.

    Mars trine Uranus (wide at 4.6°)

  6. The shape of his chart

    In his chart, his identity, his mind and his intensity (the Sun, Mercury and Pluto) gather in Libra, and that part of life draws his attention first. The weight of his chart sits in air signs: ideas and people.
