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. A quiet strength: under pressure he grew more focused, and he knew how to start over.

    The Sun sextile Pluto (almost exact at 0.5°)

  2. What he needed

    Moon in Pisces, the Tide

    Feels the mood of a room from the doorway. Comfort comes from water, music, softness and kindness.

  3. How he loved

    Venus in Sagittarius, the Adventurer

    Loves freedom, laughter and shared adventures. Wants a partner who is also a travel companion. Love came with high stakes: intense attachments, and a need to know exactly where he stood.

    Venus square Pluto (wide at 3.2°)

  4. How he thought

    Mercury in Scorpio, the Investigator

    Thinks in depth and wants the real story. Says little and notices everything. His mind ran ahead of the conversation: he said the unexpected thing, and not everyone was ready to hear it.

    Mercury square Uranus (close at 2.0°)

  5. What drove him

    Mars in Cancer, the Defender

    Protective to the core. Puts every ounce of strength behind family and the people dearest to him. Drive with the brakes on: he wanted to move, something held him back, and the friction made him tough.

    Mars opposition Saturn (close at 2.4°)

  6. The shape of his chart

    In his chart, his identity, his mind and his imagination (the Sun, Mercury and Neptune) gather in Scorpio, and that part of life drew his attention first. No air at all, so stepping back to talk a thing through took deliberate effort.
