What his chart says about him
Who he was
Sun in Aquarius, the Free Thinker
Independent, inventive and quietly idealistic. Asks why things are done this way and imagines a better one. The self he knew and the image others saw drifted apart at times, and he worked to keep hold of the real one.
The Sun opposition Neptune (almost exact at 0.7°)
What he needed
Moon in Aquarius or Pisces, the Cool Head
Feels at a little distance and thinks feelings through. Needs friends, freedom and room to be different.
For a birth after 9:41 p.m., his Moon was in Pisces.
How he loved
Venus in Capricorn, the Loyal Partner
Loves with steadiness and staying power. Takes commitment seriously and builds something lasting.
How he thought
Mercury in Capricorn, the Planner
A disciplined, realistic mind. Thinks in steps, plans for the long run and says only what is needed. He doubted his own ideas before anyone else could, and so he checked every one twice.
Mercury opposition Saturn (wide at 4.3°)
What drove him
Mars in Aquarius, the Rebel
Independent and inventive in action. Fights for the group, the future and a fairer way. Electric: he acted on impulse, loved a risk and refused to be told what to do.
Mars conjunction Uranus (wide at 6.9°)
