What his chart says about him
Who he was
Sun in Pisces, the Dreamer
Soft-hearted and full of imagination. Picks up on feelings nobody has said out loud. His purpose and his feelings were on the same side: the life he chose and the comfort he needed went together.
The Sun trine the Moon (almost exact at 0.8°)
What he needed
Moon in Scorpio, the Vault
Still on the surface and strong underneath. Holds on to feelings, and to the people who earn them.
How he loved
Venus in Aquarius, the Kindred Spirit
Unconventional in love. Drawn to the original and the independent, and needs room inside closeness. Words with charm in them: he had an ear for a beautiful phrase, and people liked listening to him.
Mercury conjunction Venus (almost exact at 0.3°)
How he thought
Mercury in Aquarius, the Inventor
Clever, unusual and ahead of the moment. Loves ideas for their own sake and thinks about everyone, not only the few. Meaning came to him before the words did, and clear speech followed the feeling.
Mercury quincunx Neptune (close at 1.7°)
What drove him
Mars in Taurus, the Stayer
Slow to start and impossible to stop. He worked steadily, built things to last and did not give up under pressure. Quick and inventive in action: he moved fast, broke with habit and made sudden changes work.
Mars trine Uranus (close at 1.6°)
