What his chart says about him

  1. Who he is

    Sun in Gemini, the Messenger

    Lit up by ideas, people and the next good question. Happiest when there is something new to learn and someone to tell about it. The self he knows and the image others see drift apart at times, and he works to keep hold of the real one.

  2. What he needs

    Moon in Cancer or Gemini, the Nest-Maker

    Feels everything and holds on to what matters. Needs a place to come home to and people who stay. He thinks with his feelings: memory, mood and wit come together, and his words give away what he feels.

    The Moon conjunction Mercury (almost exact at 0.7°) · For a birth before 5:02 a.m., his Moon was in Gemini.

  3. How he loves

    Venus in Cancer, the Nurturer

    Shows love by looking after people. Needs a partner who feels like a safe harbour. Magnetic: affection and desire come together in him, and people notice.

    Venus conjunction Mars (almost exact at 0.2°)

  4. How he thinks

    Mercury in Cancer, the Remembering Mind

    Thinks with feeling and remembers everything that mattered. Speaks kindly and reads between the lines. 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°)

  5. What drives him

    Mars in Cancer, the Defender

    Protective to the core. Puts every ounce of strength behind family and the people dearest to him. His drive and his discipline work together easily: he can push hard and keep going.

    Mars sextile Saturn (wide at 3.7°)

  6. The shape of his chart

    In his chart, his optimism, his discipline and his independence (Jupiter, Saturn and Uranus) gather in Taurus, and that part of life draws his attention first. In his chart, earth and water signs hold the most planets: the practical and the solid, and feeling and intuition.
