What his chart says about him
Who he was
Sun in Aquarius, the Free Thinker
A free mind with a strong sense of fairness. Friendly to everyone and hard to pin down. His purpose and his feelings were on the same side: the life he chose and the comfort he needed went together.
The Sun sextile the Moon (almost exact at 0.8°)
What he needed
Moon in Sagittarius, the Free Spirit
Feels best with space, laughter and something to look forward to. Gets restless when fenced in. His feelings ran deep and held steady: he came through hard times with more strength than he went in with.
The Moon trine Pluto (close at 1.4°)
How he loved
Venus in Sagittarius, the Adventurer
Loves freedom, laughter and shared adventures. Wants a partner who is also a travel companion. Magnetic: affection and desire came together in him, and people noticed.
Venus conjunction Mars (close at 2.6°)
How he thought
Mercury in Capricorn, the Planner
A disciplined, realistic mind. Thinks in steps, plans for the long run and says only what is needed. A patient, exact mind: he chose every word, and his thinking got sharper with practice.
Mercury trine Saturn (close at 1.7°)
What drove him
Mars in Sagittarius, the Champion
Adventurous and principled. Throws himself behind big causes and what is right. Big drive and big confidence: he went after large goals, and his enthusiasm carried others along.
Mars sextile Jupiter (close at 2.4°)
The shape of his chart
In his chart, his identity, his optimism and his independence (the Sun, Jupiter and Uranus) gather in Aquarius, and that part of life drew his attention first. No water at all, so feelings came out in actions more than in words.
The sky the day he was born
The Moon
Lewis Carroll was born five days before a new Moon. At noon that day the Moon was 24% lit, in Sagittarius. Tonight’s Moon
The day
