What his chart says about him

  1. Who he is

    Sun in Libra, the Diplomat

    Fair, charming and good with people. Happiest when things are balanced, pleasant and calm. 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 4.2°)

  2. What he needs

    Moon in Aries or Pisces, the Quick Flame

    Quick to feel and quick to forgive. Needs to say it, do something about it and move on.

    For a birth before 10:06 a.m., his Moon was in Pisces.

  3. How he loves

    Venus in Scorpio, the Devotee

    Loves fiercely, privately and for keeps. Wants complete trust and a bond that goes beneath the surface. Magnetic: affection and desire come together in him, and people notice.

    Venus conjunction Mars (wide at 5.6°)

  4. How he thinks

    Mercury in Scorpio or Libra, the Investigator

    Thinks in depth and wants the real story. Says little and notices everything. Big ideas and loose details: he thinks on a large scale, and the small print is where things get away from him.

    Mercury square Jupiter (wide at 5.6°) · For a birth before 12:30 a.m., his Mercury was in Libra.

  5. What drives him

    Mars in Scorpio, the Strategist

    Intense, strategic and relentless. Keeps a goal close and doesn’t let it go. Electric: he acts on impulse, loves a risk and refuses to be told what to do.

    Mars conjunction Uranus (close at 1.9°)

  6. The shape of his chart

    Most of his planets are in water signs: feeling and intuition.
