What his chart says about him

  1. Who he is

    Sun in Cancer, the Protector

    Tender under a careful shell. Makes a home anywhere and guards the people inside it. He keeps redrawing the line between the life he has and the life he imagines.

    The Sun quincunx Neptune (close at 2.9°)

  2. What he needs

    Moon in Aquarius or Pisces, the Cool Head

    Calm in a crisis, private about feelings. Comfort comes from friendship, ideas and space of his own. Good-hearted and generous: he feels looked after by life, and he passes that on.

    The Moon trine Jupiter (almost exact at 0.4°) · For a birth after 7:12 p.m., his Moon was in Pisces.

  3. How he loves

    Venus in Leo, the Romantic

    Loves big, loyally and warmly. Wants to adore and be adored. He loves the unusual: original taste, unexpected friendships and a style all his own.

    Venus sextile Uranus (wide at 3.2°)

  4. How he thinks

    Mercury in Gemini, the Quick Wit

    Fast, curious and funny. Thinks out loud and collects ideas from everywhere.

  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 4.4°)

  6. The shape of his chart

    The Sun is the hub of his chart: it takes part in five of its aspects, more than any other body, so his identity touches everything else in it. In his chart, air signs hold the most planets: ideas and people.
