What his chart says about him

  1. Who he was

    Sun in Scorpio, the Detective

    Private and powerful. Sees past the surface, keeps secrets well and does nothing halfway. 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 (wide at 4.7°)

  2. What he needed

    Moon in Capricorn, the Steady Hand

    Keeps feelings under control and feels safest when life is organised and secure.

  3. How he loved

    Venus in Capricorn, the Loyal Partner

    Careful with the heart and true once it is given. Shows love by being reliable year after year. Love came in sudden starts and stops: he fell for people quickly and needed room just as quickly.

  4. How he thought

    Mercury in Sagittarius, the Philosopher

    A wide-ranging mind. Learns by asking, travelling and following a question as far as it goes. A quick, original mind: ideas arrived in flashes, and he saw answers others missed.

    Mercury sextile Uranus (close at 1.3°)

  5. What drove him

    Mars in Virgo, the Craftsperson

    Works carefully and precisely. Gets results through skill and attention to detail. A fierce will: he met opposition head on, and a fight brought out his full strength.

    The weight of his chart sits in earth signs: the practical and the solid.
