What his chart says about him
Who he was
Sun in Taurus, the Gardener
Steady as bedrock. Takes time to decide, and once something is chosen, it is kept and looked after. He fought hard for what he wanted, and his temper was part of his courage.
The Sun square Mars (almost exact at 0.6°)
What he needed
Moon in Pisces or Aries, the Tide
Feels the mood of a room from the doorway. Comfort comes from water, music, softness and kindness. He put people at ease without trying: kindness and charm came from the same place.
The Moon sextile Venus (almost exact at 0.2°) · For a birth after 2:14 p.m., his Moon was in Aries.
How he loved
Venus in Taurus, the Keeper
Loves slowly, loyally and through the senses. Once someone is let in, they stay in, and they are cared for in ways they can touch. Charm came naturally: taste, warmth and a love of beautiful things were close to his core.
The Sun conjunction Venus (wide at 4.4°)
How he thought
Mercury in Gemini, the Quick Wit
Fast, curious and funny. Thinks out loud and collects ideas from everywhere. A patient, exact mind: he chose every word, and his thinking got sharper with practice.
Mercury sextile Saturn (close at 2.8°)
What drove him
Mars in Aquarius, the Rebel
Independent and inventive in action. Fights for the group, the future and a fairer way. Stamina and willpower: he kept going long after others stopped, and he did his best work under pressure.
Mars trine Pluto (close at 1.2°)
