What his chart says about him

  1. Who he was

    Sun in Cancer, the Protector

    Remembers birthdays, old jokes and who needed help. Loyalty runs deep, and so does the need to belong. His confidence came easily and spread: he thought big, and other people wanted to come along.

    The Sun trine Jupiter (close at 2.7°)

  2. What he needed

    Moon in Libra, the Peacemaker

    Needs harmony, good company and fairness. Feels best when everyone is getting along.

  3. How he loved

    Venus in Virgo, the Quiet Romantic

    Shows love through care, help and attention to small things. Loyal in love: he chose carefully, and what he built with people lasted.

    Venus trine Saturn (almost exact at 0.7°)

  4. How he thought

    Mercury in Leo, the Storyteller

    Speaks with warmth and confidence and tells a great story. Thinks in big, bold ideas. He thought in leaps: brilliant, contrary and quick to get bored with the obvious.

    Mercury conjunction Uranus (almost exact at 0.4°)

  5. What drove him

    Mars in Leo, the Leader

    Confident, dramatic and courageous. Puts heart into every effort and likes to lead from the front. 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 drive and his independence (Mercury, Mars and Uranus) gather in Leo, and that part of life drew his attention first.
