What his chart says about him

  1. Who he was

    Sun in Leo, the Bright One

    Big-hearted and bright. Brings warmth into a room and loves to see other people do well. His confidence came easily and spread: he thought big, and other people wanted to come along.

    The Sun trine Jupiter (close at 1.6°)

  2. What he needed

    Moon in Capricorn, the Steady Hand

    Keeps feelings under control and feels safest when life is organised and secure.

  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.

    Venus sextile Neptune (wide at 3.5°)

  4. How he thought

    Mercury in Virgo, the Analyst

    Clever, methodical and useful. Turns a muddle into a list and the list into results. His mind ran ahead of the conversation: he said the unexpected thing, and not everyone was ready to hear it.

    Mercury square Uranus (almost exact at 0.2°)

  5. What drove him

    Mars in Leo, the Leader

    Bold, proud and full of drive. Wants to lead, works hardest on what is dear to him, and wants to be recognised for it. He took on more than any one person could, and his boldness ran ahead of his plans.

    Mars square Jupiter (wide at 4.3°)
