What his chart says about him
Who he was
Sun in Leo, the Bright One
Warm, generous and made to be seen. Makes a room feel brighter and wants the people in it to shine too. More sensitive to criticism than it looks. Self-belief came slowly and had to be earned, one result at a time, and every result counted.
The Sun square Saturn (close at 1.1°)
What he needed
Moon in Leo, the Warm Heart
Wears his heart where people can see it. Needs warmth, praise and a little attention, and gives all three back. He thought with his feelings: memory, mood and wit came together, and his words gave away what he felt.
The Moon conjunction Mercury (exact at 0.0°)
How he loved
Venus in Cancer, the Nurturer
Shows love by looking after people. Needs a partner who feels like a safe harbour. Affection and independence needed constant trading off, and he kept renegotiating the terms of his relationships.
Venus quincunx Uranus (close at 1.5°)

Mercury in Leo, the Storyteller
Speaks with flair and conviction. Thinks in bold strokes and tells a story everyone remembers. A quick, original mind: ideas arrived in flashes, and he saw answers others missed.

Mars in Leo, the Leader
Confident, dramatic and courageous. Puts heart into every effort and likes to lead from the front. Quick and inventive in action: he moved fast, broke with habit and made sudden changes work.
