What his chart says about him
Who he was
Sun in Capricorn, the Architect
Responsible from an early age. Takes the climb seriously and has a dry humour that comes out once the work is done. Aim and action ran at different speeds, and he spent real effort keeping them in step.
The Sun quincunx Mars (almost exact at 0.1°)
What he needed
Moon in Capricorn, the Steady Hand
Keeps feelings under control and feels safest when life is organised and secure.
How he loved
Venus in Capricorn, the Loyal Partner
Loves with steadiness and staying power. Takes commitment seriously and builds something lasting. He loved the unusual: original taste, unexpected friendships and a style all his own.
Venus trine Uranus (close at 2.0°)
How he thought
Mercury in Aquarius, the Inventor
Clever, unusual and ahead of the moment. Loves ideas for their own sake and thinks about everyone, not only the few. He doubted his own ideas before anyone else could, and so he checked every one twice.
Mercury square Saturn (almost exact at 0.4°)
What drove him
Mars in Gemini, the Multitasker
Busy, versatile and sharp. Gets moving through talk, travel and a steady supply of new plans.
The shape of his chart
In his chart, his identity, his feelings and his heart (the Sun, the Moon and Venus) gather in Capricorn, and that part of life drew his attention first. No fire at all, so the bold first move came by choice rather than by instinct.
