What his chart says about him

  1. Who he was

    Sun in Scorpio, the Detective

    Intense, private and loyal. Wants the real story, not the polite one, and gives all or nothing. Funnier than people expect, and kinder in private than in public. His restlessness kept testing his plans, so he changed course more than once to stay true to himself.

    The Sun quincunx Uranus (almost exact at 0.4°)

  2. What he needed

    Moon in Scorpio, the Vault

    Feels everything strongly and privately. Needs trust, loyalty and honesty above all. Good-hearted and generous: he felt looked after by life, and he passed that on.

    The Moon trine Jupiter (almost exact at 0.8°)

  3. How he loved

    Venus in Libra, the Sweetheart

    Happiest as half of a well-matched pair. Brings charm, fairness and courtesy to love. He kept weighing pleasure against duty, and joy came once the work was done.

    Venus quincunx Saturn (almost exact at 0.5°)

  4. How he thought

    Mercury in Sagittarius, the Philosopher

    Frank, curious and full of opinions. Thinks in big pictures and loves a debate about what really matters. He doubted his own ideas before anyone else could, and so he checked every one twice.

  5. What drove him

    Mars in Taurus, the Stayer

    Steady, strong and very patient. He kept going long after others stopped. What he found beautiful and what he desired kept parting ways, and love took some working out.

    Venus quincunx Mars (close at 1.1°)

  6. The shape of his chart

    In his chart, water signs hold the most planets: feeling and intuition.
