What his chart says about him
Who he was
Sun in Gemini, the Messenger
Lit up by ideas, people and the next good question. Happiest when there is something new to learn and someone to tell about it. He fought hard for what he wanted, and his temper was part of his courage.

What he needed
Moon in Aquarius, the Cool Head
Calm in a crisis, private about feelings. Comfort comes from friendship, ideas and space of his own.
How he loved
