What his chart says about him
Who he was
Sun in Taurus, the Gardener
Calm, patient and loyal. Grows good things slowly and keeps them for years. Intensity at the centre: he wanted the whole truth about everything, himself first, and he remade himself more than once to reach it.
The Sun conjunction Pluto (almost exact at 0.7°)
What he needed
Moon in Aquarius, the Cool Head
Needs freedom, friendship and room to think. Handles feelings by stepping back and making sense of them. His feelings and his imagination pulled in different directions: he lived between what was real and what he longed for.
The Moon square Neptune (close at 1.8°)
How he loved
Venus in Taurus, the Keeper
Loves slowly, loyally and through the senses. Once someone is let in, they stay in, and they are cared for in ways they can touch. Serious about love: he gave affection slowly, and once given, it stayed given.
Venus conjunction Saturn (exact at 0.0°)
How he thought
Mercury in Gemini or Taurus, the Quick Wit
A restless, clever mind. Loves words, news and the fun of a good exchange. His mind and his identity were close together: he spoke as he thought, and his ideas were part of who he was.
The Sun conjunction Mercury (close at 1.8°) · For a birth before 8:09 a.m., his Mercury was in Taurus.

Mars in Aries, the Trailblazer
Pure forward motion. Brave, competitive and happiest in the middle of the action. His purpose and his drive worked together: once he decided on something, he moved on it fast.
The Sun sextile Mars (wide at 6.7°)
