What his chart says about him
Who he was
Sun in Virgo, the Fixer
Sharp-eyed and quietly kind. Sees how a thing could work better and rolls up his sleeves to fix it. His confidence came easily and spread: he thought big, and other people wanted to come along.
The Sun trine Jupiter (wide at 5.8°)
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
Venus in Scorpio, the Devotee
All or nothing in love. Feels intensely and stays loyal to the very end. Love came with high stakes: intense attachments, and a need to know exactly where he stood.
Venus opposition Pluto (almost exact at 0.4°)
How he thought
Mercury in Virgo, the Analyst
Precise, practical and clever. Notices the detail everyone else missed. A generous, wide-ranging mind: he learned easily, told a good story and saw the big picture.
Mercury trine Jupiter (wide at 3.8°)
What drove him
Mars in Cancer, the Defender
Fights hardest for the people closest to him. Works best for a cause that feels personal. Electric: he acted on impulse, loved a risk and refused to be told what to do.
Mars conjunction Uranus (close at 1.7°)
The shape of his chart
