What his chart says about him

  1. Who he was

    Sun in Capricorn, the Architect

    Serious, capable and ambitious. Builds a life step by step, and gets more playful and lighter with age. Aim and action ran at different speeds, and he spent real effort keeping them in step.

    The Sun quincunx Mars (close at 1.7°)

  2. What he needed

    Moon in Virgo, the Mender

    Settles worry by doing something useful. Needs order, routine and a job done well. His head and his feelings argued: he knew what he thought before he knew what he felt, or the other way round.

    The Moon square Mercury (close at 1.0°)

  3. How he loved

    Venus in Sagittarius, the Adventurer

    Warm, adventurous and hard to fence in. Falls for laughter, big ideas and wide-open plans. He kept weighing pleasure against duty, and joy came once the work was done.

    Venus quincunx Saturn (almost exact at 0.1°)

  4. How he thought

    Mercury in Sagittarius, the Philosopher

    Thinks big and speaks frankly. Loves ideas, learning and talking about what things mean. A probing mind: he got to the bottom of things, and his words had power when he chose to use them.

    Mercury trine Pluto (close at 1.1°)

  5. 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. He took on more than any one person could, and his boldness ran ahead of his plans.
