What his chart says about him

  1. Who he was

    Sun in Cancer, the Protector

    Remembers birthdays, old jokes and who needed help. Loyalty runs deep, and so does the need to belong. His restlessness kept testing his plans, so he changed course more than once to stay true to himself.

    The Sun quincunx Uranus (close at 2.0°)

  2. What he needed

    Moon in Libra or Scorpio, the Peacemaker

    Feels most at peace when the people around him are at peace. Needs beauty, balance and someone to share things with. Feeling and thought spoke the same language: he could put a mood into words, and his words carried feeling.

    The Moon trine Mercury (almost exact at 0.8°) · For a birth after 2:17 p.m., his Moon was in Scorpio.

  3. How he loved

    Venus in Cancer, the Nurturer

    Shows love by looking after people. Needs a partner who feels like a safe harbour. A deep, private heart: he drew people in and kept some feelings locked away.

    Venus conjunction Pluto (wide at 4.9°)

  4. How he thought

    Mercury in Gemini, the Quick Wit

    Fast, curious and funny. Thinks out loud and collects ideas from everywhere. A generous, wide-ranging mind: he learned easily, told a good story and saw the big picture.

    Mercury sextile Jupiter (wide at 4.1°)

  5. What drove him

    Mars in Virgo, the Craftsperson

    Works carefully and precisely. Gets results through skill and attention to detail. His drive and his discipline worked together easily: he could push hard and keep going.

    Mars sextile Saturn (close at 2.3°)

  6. The shape of his chart

    In his chart, his identity, his heart, his discipline and his intensity (the Sun, Venus, Saturn and Pluto) gather in Cancer, and that part of life drew his attention first. Most of his planets are in water signs: feeling and intuition.
