What his chart says about him

  1. Who he was

    Sun in Sagittarius, the Explorer

    Restless in the best way. Wants to see more, learn more and say exactly what is on his mind. Independence came easily: he did things his own way, and people found it refreshing rather than rude.

    The Sun trine Uranus (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. Steady feelings: he kept calm under strain, and he loved in ways that lasted.

    The Moon trine Saturn (close at 1.1°)

  3. How he loved

    Venus in Scorpio, the Devotee

    Loves intensely and loyally. Wants a close, honest bond and nothing less. He loved with depth and loyalty, and the bonds he formed changed both people.

    Venus trine Pluto (wide at 3.5°)

  4. How he thought

    Mercury in Sagittarius, the Philosopher

    Thinks big and speaks frankly. Loves ideas, learning and talking about what things mean.

  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. Quick and inventive in action: he moved fast, broke with habit and made sudden changes work.

    Mars trine Uranus (wide at 3.8°)

  6. The shape of his chart

    No air at all, so stepping back to talk a thing through took deliberate effort.
