What his chart says about him

  1. Who he was

    Sun in Scorpio, the Detective

    Deep, watchful and all in. Trusts slowly, and once trust is given, it is given completely. Purpose and patience worked as a team: he built slowly and got better with every year.

    The Sun sextile Saturn (exact at 0.0°)

  2. What he needed

    Moon in Aquarius or Pisces, the Cool Head

    Needs freedom, friendship and room to think. Handles feelings by stepping back and making sense of them. Feeling and thought spoke the same language: he could put a mood into words, and his words carried feeling.

    The Moon trine Mercury (wide at 3.3°) · For a birth after 12:23 p.m., his Moon was in Pisces.

  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 loved the dream of a person, and the real one had to compete with it.

  4. How he thought

    Mercury in Scorpio, the Investigator

    A penetrating mind. Reads people well, speaks carefully and can tell when something is being hidden. Sharp words and a sharp mind: he argued well, sometimes too well, and a debate was a kind of sport to him.

    Mercury square Mars (close at 1.9°)

  5. What drove him

    Mars in Leo, the Leader

    Confident, dramatic and courageous. Puts heart into every effort and likes to lead from the front. He fought hard for what he wanted, and his temper was part of his courage.

    The Sun square Mars (close at 2.4°)

  6. The shape of his chart

    The weight of his chart sits in water signs: feeling and intuition.
