What his chart says about him
Who he is
Sun in Taurus, the Gardener
Calm, patient and loyal. Grows good things slowly and keeps them for years. Purpose and patience work as a team: he builds slowly and gets better with every year.
The Sun trine Saturn (close at 1.5°)
What he needs
Moon in Scorpio, the Vault
Still on the surface and strong underneath. Holds on to feelings, and to the people who earn them. What comforts him and what he loves are different things, so his heart and his moods keep negotiating.
The Moon opposition Venus (almost exact at 0.9°)
How he loves
Venus in Taurus, the Keeper
Slow to fall and slow to leave. Wants a love that feels safe, warm and real. He loves the dream of a person, and the real one has to compete with it.
Venus opposition Neptune (almost exact at 0.7°)
How he thinks
Mercury in Taurus, the Careful Thinker
Thinks things through at his own pace. Practical, patient and very hard to talk out of a view. His head and his feelings argue: he knows what he thinks before he knows what he feels, or the other way round.
The Moon opposition Mercury (close at 2.4°)
What drives him
Mars in Pisces, the Gentle Warrior
Gentle on the surface and quietly strong. Works best for a cause worth believing in. He takes on more than any one person can, and his boldness runs ahead of his plans.
Mars square Jupiter (wide at 3.6°)
The shape of his chart
In his chart, his identity, his mind and his heart (the Sun, Mercury and Venus) gather in Taurus, and that part of life draws his attention first. No air at all, so stepping back to talk a thing through takes deliberate effort.
The sky the day he was born
The Moon
Bono was born the day before a full Moon. At noon that day the Moon was 99% lit, in Scorpio. Tonight’s Moon
The day
It was a Tuesday, 41 days before the June solstice.
