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. Self-belief came slowly and had to be earned, one result at a time, and every result counted.

  2. What he needed

    Moon in Aries or Taurus, the Quick Flame

    Feels things fast and hot, and gets over them fast too. Needs action, honesty and room to move.

    For a birth after 1:13 p.m., his Moon was in Taurus.

  3. How he loved

    Venus in Virgo, the Quiet Romantic

    Shows love through care, help and attention to small things. A romantic with an artist’s eye: he saw the beauty in people and made it visible to others.

  4. How he thought

    Mercury in Sagittarius, the Philosopher

    Thinks big and speaks frankly. Loves ideas, learning and talking about what things mean. Facts and dreams blurred together in his mind: wonderful for stories, harder when details mattered.

  5. What drove him

    Mars in Virgo, the Craftsperson

    Skilful, hardworking and modest. Gets ahead through practice, precision and getting the details right. His purpose and his drive worked together: once he decided on something, he moved on it fast.
