What his chart says about him
Who he was
Sun in Libra, the Diplomat
Drawn to beauty, good manners and a fair deal. Works best with a partner and hates a needless fight. He reached for more than one life could hold: big plans, big promises, and a habit of saying yes before counting the hours.
The Sun square Jupiter (close at 2.8°)
What he needed
Moon in Taurus, the Hearth
Calm, warm and steady. Feels safest with good food, soft things and a familiar routine, and makes everyone around him feel the same.
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. A graceful mind: he spoke kindly and well, and he knew how to say a hard thing gently.
Mercury sextile Venus (almost exact at 0.1°)
How he thought
Mercury in Virgo, the Analyst
Precise, practical and clever. Notices the detail everyone else missed. A quick, direct mind: he made decisions fast and said what he meant.
Mercury sextile Mars (wide at 4.1°)
What drove him
Mars in Cancer, the Defender
Driven by feeling. Goes the furthest for something personal, and guards home fiercely. Charm and desire worked together: he knew what he wanted in love and how to win it.
Venus trine Mars (wide at 4.0°)
The shape of his chart
In his chart, his drive, his optimism and his intensity (Mars, Jupiter and Pluto) gather in Cancer, and that part of life drew his attention first. The weight of his chart sits in earth and water signs: the practical and the solid, and feeling and intuition.
