What his chart says about him

  1. Who he was

    Sun in Capricorn, the Architect

    Responsible from an early age. Takes the climb seriously and has a dry humour that comes out once the work is done. He needed room to be himself, and any rule that fit too tightly got broken.

    The Sun opposition Uranus (almost exact at 0.6°)

  2. What he needed

    Moon in Virgo or Libra, the Mender

    Settles worry by doing something useful. Needs order, routine and a job done well.

    For a birth after 10:37 p.m., his Moon was in Libra.

  3. How he loved

    Venus in Pisces, the Tender Heart

    Gentle, devoted and full of feeling. Wants a love with a little magic in it. A graceful mind: he spoke kindly and well, and he knew how to say a hard thing gently.

    Mercury sextile Venus (close at 1.3°)

  4. How he thought

    Mercury in Sagittarius or Capricorn, the Philosopher

    A wide-ranging mind. Learns by asking, travelling and following a question as far as it goes. A patient, exact mind: he chose every word, and his thinking got sharper with practice.

    Mercury sextile Saturn (wide at 3.4°) · For a birth after 1:24 p.m., his Mercury was in Capricorn.

  5. What drove him

    Mars in Pisces, the Gentle Warrior

    Moves by intuition and feeling. Finds strength in service and in standing up for someone else. Magnetic: affection and desire came together in him, and people noticed.

    Venus conjunction Mars (wide at 3.9°)

  6. The shape of his chart

    Saturn is the hub of his chart: it takes part in four of its aspects, more than any other body, so his discipline touched everything else in it.
