What his chart says about him

  1. Who he was

    Sun in Aries, the Pioneer

    Built to begin. Says yes before the plan is finished and gets everyone else moving. His confidence came easily and spread: he thought big, and other people wanted to come along.

    The Sun trine Jupiter (close at 1.8°)

  2. What he needed

    Moon in Pisces or Aries, the Tide

    Sensitive to everything and quick to sympathise. Finds rest in art, water, dreams and kind company.

    For a birth after 7:54 p.m., his Moon was in Aries.

  3. How he loved

    Venus in Taurus, the Keeper

    Loves slowly, loyally and through the senses. Once someone is let in, they stay in, and they are cared for in ways they can touch. Charm and desire worked together: he knew what he wanted in love and how to win it.

    Venus sextile Mars (close at 1.5°)

  4. How he thought

    Mercury in Aries, the Spark

    Thinks fast and speaks plainly. Ideas arrive whole and leave his mouth a second later. His words had force: he spoke to persuade, and he kept his own counsel until the right moment.

  5. What drove him

    Mars in Aries, the Trailblazer

    Bold, fast and ready for a challenge. Charges at a goal and loves the thrill of starting. His drive and his discipline worked together easily: he could push hard and keep going.

    Mars sextile Saturn (close at 2.6°)

  6. The shape of his chart

    Most of his planets are in fire signs: instinct and enthusiasm.
