What his chart says about him

  1. Who he was

    Sun in Scorpio, the Detective

    Deep, watchful and all in. Trusts slowly, and once trust is given, it is given completely. His restlessness kept testing his plans, so he changed course more than once to stay true to himself.

    The Sun quincunx Uranus (close at 1.4°)

  2. What he needed

    Moon in Taurus or Gemini, the Hearth

    Even-tempered and hard to unsettle. Needs calm, touch and things that stay the same. He picked up what others felt before a word was said, and his compassion reached far.

    The Moon trine Neptune (close at 2.0°) · For a birth after 2:19 p.m., his Moon was in Gemini.

  3. How he loved

    Venus in Libra, the Sweetheart

    Graceful, warm and drawn to harmony. Loves romance, beauty and a true partnership of equals. Magnetic: affection and desire came together in him, and people noticed.

    Venus conjunction Mars (close at 1.4°)

  4. How he thought

    Mercury in Libra, the Mediator

    A fair, sociable mind. Thinks best in conversation and dislikes a cruel word. A patient, exact mind: he chose every word, and his thinking got sharper with practice.

    Mercury trine Saturn (close at 2.4°)

  5. What drove 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 took on more than any one person could, and his boldness ran ahead of his plans.

  6. The shape of his chart

    In his chart, his mind, his heart, his drive and his imagination (Mercury, Venus, Mars and Neptune) gather in Libra, and that part of life drew his attention first. Most of his planets are in air signs: ideas and people.
