What his chart says about him
Who he was
Sun in Leo, the Bright One
Big-hearted and bright. Brings warmth into a room and loves to see other people do well. Purpose and patience worked as a team: he built slowly and got better with every year.
The Sun trine Saturn (close at 1.3°)
What he needed
Moon in Aries, the Quick Flame
Quick to feel and quick to forgive. Needs to say it, do something about it and move on. He loved hard and held on hard, and letting go took him a long time.
The Moon square Pluto (almost exact at 0.4°)
How he loved
Venus in Leo, the Romantic
Grand in affection and fiercely loyal. Likes to celebrate the people dearest to him. Romance without limits: he fell for ideals as much as people, and his taste ran to the dreamy and the beautiful.
Venus conjunction Neptune (wide at 4.5°)
How he thought
Mercury in Leo, the Storyteller
Speaks with flair and conviction. Thinks in bold strokes and tells a story everyone remembers. A quick, original mind: ideas arrived in flashes, and he saw answers others missed.
Mercury trine Uranus (wide at 3.5°)
What drove him
Mars in Taurus, the Stayer
Slow to start and impossible to stop. He worked steadily, built things to last and did not give up under pressure. Drive and dreams mixed uneasily: the goal was clear to him, and the way to it harder to see.
Mars square Neptune (exact at 0.0°)
The shape of his chart
In his chart, his identity, his mind, his heart and his imagination (the Sun, Mercury, Venus and Neptune) gather in Leo, and that part of life drew his attention first. No air at all, so stepping back to talk a thing through took deliberate effort.
The sky the day he was born
The Moon
Andy Warhol was born five days after a full Moon. At noon that day the Moon was 73% lit, in Aries. Tonight’s Moon
The day
It was a Monday, 45 days after the June solstice.
Saturn return
For Andy Warhol, Saturn came back to where it stood at his birth in 1986, at 58: his second Saturn return, after the first in 1957. When is yours?
