What his chart says about him
Who he was
Sun in Aries, the Pioneer
Built to begin. Says yes before the plan is finished and gets everyone else moving. He took in moods, music and other people’s hopes, and gave them back as something new.
The Sun conjunction Neptune (wide at 3.7°)
What he needed
Moon in Libra, the Peacemaker
Needs harmony, good company and fairness. Feels best when everyone is getting along. Quick feelings and a quick temper: he reacted first, and his courage came from the same place as his flashes of anger.
The Moon square Mars (close at 2.0°)
How he loved
Venus in Pisces, the Tender Heart
Loves with compassion and imagination. Wants a romantic, gentle bond. Affection and independence needed constant trading off, and he kept renegotiating the terms of his relationships.
Venus quincunx Uranus (almost exact at 0.5°)
How he thought
Mercury in Taurus, the Careful Thinker
Thinks things through at his own pace. Practical, patient and very hard to talk out of a view. His mind ran ahead of the conversation: he said the unexpected thing, and not everyone was ready to hear it.
Mercury square Uranus (wide at 5.4°)
What drove him
Mars in Cancer, the Defender
Fights hardest for the people closest to him. Works best for a cause that feels personal. Charm and desire worked together: he knew what he wanted in love and how to win it.
Venus trine Mars (wide at 3.5°)
The shape of his chart
In his chart, his optimism, his independence and his intensity (Jupiter, Uranus and Pluto) gather in Leo, and that part of life drew his attention first. Most of his planets are in fire signs: instinct and enthusiasm.
