What his chart says about him
Who he was
Sun in Virgo, the Fixer
Modest about a great deal of skill. Cares through careful, useful help, and has a wit that catches people off guard. He fought hard for what he wanted, and his temper was part of his courage.
The Sun square Mars (wide at 4.5°)
What he needed
Moon in Cancer or Leo, the Nest-Maker
Feels everything and holds on to what matters. Needs a place to come home to and people who stay. His moods changed without warning, and he wanted closeness and room to breathe at the same time.
The Moon square Uranus (close at 2.2°) · For a birth after 6:28 p.m., his Moon was in Leo.
How he loved
Venus in Scorpio, the Devotee
Loves fiercely, privately and for keeps. Wants complete trust and a bond that goes beneath the surface. He loved too much of a good thing: pleasure, praise and grand gestures ran past what one life could use.
Venus square Jupiter (almost exact at 0.1°)
How he thought
Mercury in Libra, the Mediator
Weighs every side before speaking. Diplomatic, graceful and good at finding the words that keep the peace. A probing mind: he got to the bottom of things, and his words had power when he chose to use them.
Mercury trine Pluto (wide at 5.0°)
What drove him
Mars in Sagittarius, the Champion
Goes after big goals with enthusiasm and a strong sense of right. Quick and inventive in action: he moved fast, broke with habit and made sudden changes work.
Mars sextile Uranus (wide at 3.2°)
