What his chart says about him
Who he was
Sun in Virgo, the Fixer
Sharp-eyed and quietly kind. Sees how a thing could work better and rolls up his sleeves to fix it. Nothing about him was halfway: he insisted on running his own life, and the struggle made him formidable.
The Sun square Pluto (close at 1.0°)
What he needed
Moon in Sagittarius, the Free Spirit
Restless and good-humoured. Feels best with a plan for the next adventure and the freedom to change it.
How he loved
Venus in Scorpio, the Devotee
Loves intensely and loyally. Wants a close, honest bond and nothing less.
How he thought
Mercury in Libra, the Mediator
Weighs every side before speaking. Diplomatic, graceful and good at finding the words that keep the peace. He doubted his own ideas before anyone else could, and so he checked every one twice.
Mercury opposition Saturn (close at 2.4°)
What drove him
Mars in Aries, the Trailblazer
All drive, courage and quick starts. Goes first, acts fast, and is at his best when something needs doing now. He fought hard for what he wanted, and his temper was part of his courage.
The Sun opposition Mars (wide at 3.7°)
