What his chart says about him
Who he was
Sun in Scorpio, the Detective
Deep, watchful and all in. Trusts slowly, and once trust is given, it is given completely. His purpose and his drive worked together: once he decided on something, he moved on it fast.
The Sun sextile Mars (close at 1.7°)
What he needed
Moon in Libra or Virgo, the Peacemaker
Feels most at peace when the people around him are at peace. Needs beauty, balance and someone to share things with. Feelings came second to duty: he held himself to a high standard, even in private.
The Moon square Saturn (exact at 0.0°) · For a birth before 11:46 a.m., his Moon was in Virgo.
How he loved
Venus in Libra, the Sweetheart
Happiest as half of a well-matched pair. Brings charm, fairness and courtesy to love. Love came with high stakes: intense attachments, and a need to know exactly where he stood.
Venus opposition Pluto (almost exact at 0.1°)
How he thought
Mercury in Sagittarius, the Philosopher
Thinks big and speaks frankly. Loves ideas, learning and talking about what things mean.
What drove him
Mars in Capricorn, the Achiever
Determined, controlled and built for the long climb. Works patiently toward the top. In love he wanted tenderness and a chase at once, and his relationships were rarely calm.
