What his chart says about him
Who he was
Sun in Cancer, the Protector
Warm, loyal and fiercely caring. Happiest looking after the people who feel like family.
What he needed
Moon in Libra or Virgo, the Peacemaker
Unsettled by conflict and soothed by kindness. Needs good company and a sense that things are fair. His feelings ran large: he wanted more comfort, more company and more of everything than any one day gave.
The Moon square Jupiter (almost exact at 0.7°) · For a birth before 10:09 a.m., his Moon was in Virgo.
How he loved
Venus in Gemini, the Charmer
Falls for a clever mind. Needs conversation, laughter and variety in love. Loyal in love: he chose carefully, and what he built with people lasted.
Venus sextile Saturn (wide at 3.2°)
How he thought
Mercury in Leo, the Storyteller
Confident, warm and persuasive. Likes an audience and has the words to keep one. A quick, direct mind: he made decisions fast and said what he meant.
Mercury sextile Mars (close at 1.1°)
What drove him
Mars in Libra, the Negotiator
Works best alongside others. Prefers diplomacy to battle, and fights for justice when it counts. He worked for ideals: his drive came alive for a cause, a role or a dream.
Mars sextile Neptune (wide at 4.1°)
The shape of his chart
In his chart, his identity, his optimism and his intensity (the Sun, Jupiter and Pluto) gather in Cancer, and that part of life drew his attention first. No earth at all, so the practical, settled side was the one he had to find.
