What his chart says about him
Who he was
Sun in Taurus, the Gardener
Unhurried, warm and hard to rattle. Has a gift for comfort, beauty and making things that last. His purpose and his drive worked together: once he decided on something, he moved on it fast.
The Sun sextile Mars (close at 1.2°)
What he needed
Moon in Libra or Scorpio, the Peacemaker
Needs harmony, good company and fairness. Feels best when everyone is getting along. His feelings liked freedom: he needed space in close ties and gave it back just as easily.
The Moon trine Uranus (close at 2.4°) · For a birth after 10:11 p.m., his Moon was in Scorpio.
How he loved
Venus in Aries, the Chaser
Falls quickly and wholeheartedly. Needs passion and a little challenge to stay interested. Romance without limits: he fell for ideals as much as people, and his taste ran to the dreamy and the beautiful.
Venus conjunction Neptune (close at 1.4°)
How he thought
Mercury in Taurus, the Careful Thinker
Thinks slowly and solidly. A mind, once made up, stays made up. Big ideas and loose details: he thought on a large scale, and the small print was where things got away from him.
Mercury opposition Jupiter (wide at 6.1°)
What drove him
Mars in Pisces, the Gentle Warrior
Works from instinct and compassion. Fights for others more easily than for himself.
