What his chart says about him

  1. Who he was

    Sun in Gemini, the Messenger

    A mind that won’t sit still. Lights up at a new idea and loves passing it on before it has cooled. Purpose and patience worked as a team: he built slowly and got better with every year.

    The Sun sextile Saturn (close at 1.0°)

  2. What he needed

    Moon in Taurus, the Hearth

    Even-tempered and hard to unsettle. Needs calm, touch and things that stay the same. He put people at ease without trying: kindness and charm came from the same place.

    The Moon sextile Venus (almost exact at 0.2°)

  3. How he loved

    Venus in Cancer, the Nurturer

    Shows love by looking after people. Needs a partner who feels like a safe harbour. Love came in sudden starts and stops: he fell for people quickly and needed room just as quickly.

    Venus opposition Uranus (almost exact at 0.5°)

  4. How he thought

    Mercury in Gemini, the Quick Wit

    Quick, witty and endlessly curious. Picks up a subject fast and can talk about ten things at once. He thought like a detective: nothing was taken at face value, and he remembered everything.

    Mercury conjunction Pluto (wide at 3.6°)

  5. What drove him

    Mars in Cancer, the Defender

    Protective to the core. Puts every ounce of strength behind family and the people dearest to him. Drive with the brakes on: he wanted to move, something held him back, and the friction made him tough.

    Mars square Saturn (wide at 3.9°)

  6. The shape of his chart

    In his chart, his identity, his mind and his intensity (the Sun, Mercury and Pluto) gather in Gemini, and that part of life drew his attention first.
