What his chart says about him

  1. Who he was

    Sun in Libra, the Diplomat

    Gracious, sociable and keen on fairness. Has a gift for making people feel at ease with each other. Independence came easily: he did things his own way, and people found it refreshing rather than rude.

    The Sun sextile Uranus (wide at 3.2°)

  2. What he needed

    Moon in Taurus or Aries, the Hearth

    Calm, warm and steady. Feels safest with good food, soft things and a familiar routine, and makes everyone around him feel the same. His feelings ran deep and held steady: he came through hard times with more strength than he went in with.

    The Moon trine Pluto (almost exact at 0.8°) · For a birth before 2:40 a.m., his Moon was in Aries.

  3. How he loved

    Venus in Virgo, the Quiet Romantic

    Modest in love and devoted to the bone. Proves feelings through actions rather than speeches. A graceful mind: he spoke kindly and well, and he knew how to say a hard thing gently.

    Mercury sextile Venus (close at 2.6°)

  4. How he thought

    Mercury in Scorpio, the Investigator

    Thinks in depth and wants the real story. Says little and notices everything. A poet’s mind: he heard what went unsaid, and his best ideas came from somewhere hard to explain.

    Mercury conjunction Neptune (wide at 6.3°)

  5. What drove him

    Mars in Libra, the Negotiator

    Works best alongside others. Prefers diplomacy to battle, and fights for justice when it counts. Purpose and drive in one place: he was quick to start, quick to compete and hard to stop.

    The Sun conjunction Mars (wide at 4.0°)

  6. The shape of his chart

    Most of his planets are in earth signs: the practical and the solid.
