What his chart says about him
Who he was
Sun in Libra, the Diplomat
Gracious, sociable and keen on fairness. Has a gift for making people feel at ease with each other. He kept redrawing the line between the life he had and the life he imagined.
The Sun quincunx Neptune (wide at 3.1°)
What he needed
Moon in Scorpio, the Vault
Feels everything strongly and privately. Needs trust, loyalty and honesty above all. His feelings and his imagination pulled in different directions: he lived between what was real and what he longed for.
The Moon opposition Neptune (almost exact at 0.3°)
How he loved
Venus in Sagittarius, the Adventurer
Loves openly and with good humour. Needs freedom, honesty and someone to explore the world with. Love came with high stakes: intense attachments, and a need to know exactly where he stood.
Venus opposition Pluto (wide at 6.4°)
How he thought
Mercury in Scorpio, the Investigator
Thinks in depth and wants the real story. Says little and notices everything. He thought fast and spoke faster: his mind liked a contest, and his words had an edge.

Mars in Scorpio, the Strategist
Determined, focused and private. Plans quietly and never forgets a goal. Big drive and big confidence: he went after large goals, and his enthusiasm carried others along.
