What his chart says about him
Who he was
Sun in Pisces, the Dreamer
Dreamy, kind and quietly perceptive. People come away feeling seen. 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 square Neptune (close at 1.2°)
What he needed
Moon in Capricorn, the Steady Hand
Steady, self-reliant and slow to show strain. Feels safe when there is a plan and something solid underfoot.
How he loved
Venus in Pisces, the Tender Heart
Loves with compassion and imagination. Wants a romantic, gentle bond. He loved the dream of a person, and the real one had to compete with it.
Venus square Neptune (close at 2.3°)
How he thought
Mercury in Aquarius, the Inventor
Clever, unusual and ahead of the moment. Loves ideas for their own sake and thinks about everyone, not only the few. A patient, exact mind: he chose every word, and his thinking got sharper with practice.

What drove him
Mars in Aries, the Trailblazer
