What his chart says about him

  1. Who he was

    Sun in Leo, the Bright One

    Warm, generous and made to be seen. Makes a room feel brighter and wants the people in it to shine too. More sensitive to criticism than it looks. The self he knew and the image others saw drifted apart at times, and he worked to keep hold of the real one.

    The Sun square Neptune (wide at 4.2°)

  2. What he needed

    Moon in Sagittarius or Capricorn, the Free Spirit

    Feels best with space, laughter and something to look forward to. Gets restless when fenced in. Feeling and thought spoke the same language: he could put a mood into words, and his words carried feeling.

    The Moon trine Mercury (close at 2.9°) · For a birth after 11:13 p.m., his Moon was in Capricorn.

  3. How he loved

    Venus in Leo, the Romantic

    Loves big, loyally and warmly. Wants to adore and be adored. Charm and desire worked together: he knew what he wanted in love and how to win it.

    Venus sextile Mars (close at 2.4°)

  4. How he thought

    Mercury in Leo, the Storyteller

    Speaks with flair and conviction. Thinks in bold strokes and tells a story everyone remembers. He doubted his own ideas before anyone else could, and so he checked every one twice.

  5. What drove him

    Mars in Libra, the Negotiator

    Works best alongside others. Prefers diplomacy to battle, and fights for justice when it counts. His purpose and his drive worked together: once he decided on something, he moved on it fast.

  6. The shape of his chart

    In his chart, his identity, his mind and his heart (the Sun, Mercury and Venus) gather in Leo, and that part of life drew his attention first. Most of his planets are in fire signs: instinct and enthusiasm.
