What his chart says about him

  1. 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. Purpose and patience work as a team: he builds slowly and gets better with every year.

    The Sun trine Saturn (close at 1.2°)

  2. What he needs

    Moon in Sagittarius or Scorpio, the Free Spirit

    Feels best with space, laughter and something to look forward to. Gets restless when fenced in. Feeling and thought speak the same language: he can put a mood into words, and his words carry feeling.

    The Moon sextile Mercury (almost exact at 0.1°) · For a birth before 6:05 a.m., his Moon was in Scorpio.

  3. How he loves

    Venus in Libra, the Sweetheart

    Happiest as half of a well-matched pair. Brings charm, fairness and courtesy to love. Love comes with high stakes: intense attachments, and a need to know exactly where he stands.

    Venus square Pluto (close at 2.0°)

  4. How he thinks

    Mercury in Libra, the Mediator

    Weighs every side before speaking. Diplomatic, graceful and good at finding the words that keep the peace. Sharp words and a sharp mind: he argues well, sometimes too well, and a debate is a kind of sport to him.

    Mercury square Mars (close at 1.9°)

  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. He works for ideals: his drive comes alive for a cause, a role or a dream.

    Mars sextile Neptune (close at 2.0°)

  6. The shape of his chart

    In his chart, his drive, his optimism and his intensity (Mars, Jupiter and Pluto) gather in Cancer, and that part of life draws his attention first.
