What his chart says about him

  1. Who he was

    Sun in Pisces, the Dreamer

    Imaginative, gentle and very aware of how others feel. People leave a conversation with him feeling understood. Purpose and patience worked as a team: he built slowly and got better with every year.

    The Sun trine Saturn (close at 2.9°)

  2. What he needed

    Moon in Sagittarius, the Free Spirit

    Needs room to roam and a reason to be hopeful. Shakes off a bad mood with a joke or a long walk.

  3. How he loved

    Venus in Aries, the Chaser

    Falls fast and loves the chase. Wants passion, honesty and a partner who keeps up. He loved the unusual: original taste, unexpected friendships and a style all his own.

    Venus sextile Uranus (close at 1.2°)

  4. How he thought

    Mercury in Aquarius, the Inventor

    Original and future-minded. Thinks in systems and finds new ways to do old things. Speaking freely and speaking carefully took constant balancing, and he weighed words before letting them go.

    Mercury quincunx Saturn (almost exact at 0.4°)

  5. What drove him

    Mars in Leo, the Leader

    Confident, dramatic and courageous. Puts heart into every effort and likes to lead from the front. Charm and desire worked together: he knew what he wanted in love and how to win it.

    Venus trine Mars (close at 1.7°)

  6. The shape of his chart

    Saturn is the hub of his chart: it takes part in five of its aspects, more than any other body, so his discipline touched everything else in it. No earth at all, so the practical, settled side was the one he had to find.
