What his chart says about him
Who he was
Sun in Sagittarius, the Explorer
Open, funny and frank. Chases meaning the way other people chase money, with a map half unfolded. His purpose and his drive worked together: once he decided on something, he moved on it fast.
The Sun trine Mars (close at 2.2°)
What he needed
Moon in Virgo, the Mender
Settles worry by doing something useful. Needs order, routine and a job done well. He put people at ease without trying: kindness and charm came from the same place.
The Moon sextile Venus (close at 1.1°)
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. Loyal in love: he chose carefully, and what he built with people lasted.
Venus trine Saturn (wide at 5.2°)
How he thought
Mercury in Sagittarius, the Philosopher
Thinks big and speaks frankly. Loves ideas, learning and talking about what things mean. Speaking freely and speaking carefully took constant balancing, and he weighed words before letting them go.

What drove him
Mars in Leo, the Leader
Bold, proud and full of drive. Wants to lead, works hardest on what is dear to him, and wants to be recognised for it.
