What his chart says about him

  1. Who he is

    Sun in Cancer, the Protector

    Warm, loyal and fiercely caring. Happiest looking after the people who feel like family. Imagination and identity work together: he can become a character, a mood or an idea, and make others believe in it.

    The Sun trine Neptune (close at 1.9°)

  2. What he needs

    Moon in Scorpio, the Vault

    Feels everything strongly and privately. Needs trust, loyalty and honesty above all. Feelings without edges: other people’s sorrow and joy reach him as if they are his own.

    The Moon conjunction Neptune (almost exact at 0.1°)

  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.

  4. How he thinks

    Mercury in Cancer, the Remembering Mind

    A mind tuned to people. Hears what sits under the words and answers it gently. He doubts his own ideas before anyone else can, and so he checks every one twice.

    Mercury square Saturn (almost exact at 0.5°)

  5. What drives him

    Mars in Libra, the Negotiator

    Gets things done through people, charm and fairness. Prefers teamwork to a fight, and fights hardest for others. He fights hard for what he wants, and his temper is part of his courage.

    The Sun square Mars (wide at 5.0°)

  6. The shape of his chart

    In his chart, his heart, his independence and his intensity (Venus, Uranus and Pluto) gather in Virgo, and that part of life draws his attention first. The weight of his chart sits in water signs: feeling and intuition.
