What his chart says about him

  1. Who he is

    Sun in Virgo, the Fixer

    Modest about a great deal of skill. Cares through careful, useful help, and has a wit that catches people off guard. 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 (wide at 3.6°)

  2. What he needs

    Moon in Pisces or Aries, the Tide

    Feels the mood of a room from the doorway. Comfort comes from water, music, softness and kindness. He puts people at ease without trying: kindness and charm come from the same place.

    The Moon trine Venus (close at 1.4°) · For a birth after 5:49 p.m., his Moon was in Aries.

  3. How he loves

    Venus in Cancer, the Nurturer

    Loves tenderly and protectively. Wants closeness, family and a feeling of belonging. He loves too much of a good thing: pleasure, praise and grand gestures run past what one life can use.

    Venus opposition Jupiter (almost exact at 0.7°)

  4. How he thinks

    Mercury in Virgo, the Analyst

    Clever, methodical and useful. Turns a muddle into a list and the list into results.

  5. What drives him

    Mars in Libra, the Negotiator

    Persuasive rather than forceful. Wins people over and stands up hardest for what is fair.

  6. The shape of his chart

    In his chart, his identity, his mind and his intensity (the Sun, Mercury and Pluto) gather in Virgo, and that part of life draws his attention first. Most of his planets are in earth signs: the practical and the solid.
