What his chart says about him

  1. Who he was

    Sun in Sagittarius, the Explorer

    Open, funny and frank. Chases meaning the way other people chase money, with a map half unfolded. His mind and his identity were close together: he spoke as he thought, and his ideas were part of who he was.

    The Sun conjunction Mercury (wide at 3.5°)

  2. What he needed

    Moon in Scorpio or Sagittarius, the Vault

    Feels everything strongly and privately. Needs trust, loyalty and honesty above all. His feelings ran hot and fast, and he protected the people he loved fiercely.

    The Moon conjunction Mars (close at 1.6°) · For a birth after 12:01 p.m., his Moon was in Sagittarius.

  3. How he loved

    Venus in Scorpio, the Devotee

    All or nothing in love. Feels intensely and stays loyal to the very end. He loved too much of a good thing: pleasure, praise and grand gestures ran past what one life could use.

  4. How he thought

    Mercury in Sagittarius, the Philosopher

    Thinks big and speaks frankly. Loves ideas, learning and talking about what things mean. Facts and dreams blurred together in his mind: wonderful for stories, harder when details mattered.

  5. What drove him

    Mars in Sagittarius, the Champion

    Adventurous and principled. Throws himself behind big causes and what is right.

  6. The shape of his chart

    No earth at all, so the practical, settled side was the one he had to find.
