What his chart says about him
Who he was
Sun in Sagittarius, the Explorer
Open, funny and frank. Chases meaning the way other people chase money, with a map half unfolded. A quiet strength: under pressure he grew more focused, and he knew how to start over.
The Sun trine Pluto (close at 1.2°)
What he needed
Moon in Scorpio, the Vault
Feels everything strongly and privately. Needs trust, loyalty and honesty above all. He thought with his feelings: memory, mood and wit came together, and his words gave away what he felt.
The Moon conjunction Mercury (close at 1.1°)
How he loved
Venus in Scorpio, the Devotee
All or nothing in love. Feels intensely and stays loyal to the very end. Love came with high stakes: intense attachments, and a need to know exactly where he stood.
Venus square Pluto (close at 2.6°)
How he thought
Mercury in Scorpio, the Investigator
Searching and sharp. Asks the question nobody else will and keeps the answers close. He doubted his own ideas before anyone else could, and so he checked every one twice.
Mercury opposition Saturn (wide at 6.0°)
What drove him
Mars in Scorpio, the Strategist
Quietly powerful. Works in private, holds nothing back, and does not give up. A fierce will: he met opposition head on, and a fight brought out his full strength.
Mars square Pluto (almost exact at 0.5°)
The shape of his chart
In his chart, his feelings, his mind, his heart and his drive (the Moon, Mercury, Venus and Mars) gather in Scorpio, 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
Bruce Lee was born two days before a new Moon. At noon that day the Moon was 3% lit, in Scorpio. Tonight’s Moon
The day
It was a Wednesday, twenty-four days before the December solstice.
Saturn return
For Bruce Lee, Saturn came back to where it stood at his birth in 1970, at 29: his first Saturn return. When is yours?
