What his chart says about him

  1. Who he was

    Sun in Cancer, the Protector

    Warm, loyal and fiercely caring. Happiest looking after the people who feel like family. His confidence came easily and spread: he thought big, and other people wanted to come along.

    The Sun trine Jupiter (close at 1.0°)

  2. What he needed

    Moon in Pisces or Aries, the Tide

    Feels the mood of a room from the doorway. Comfort comes from water, music, softness and kindness.

    For a birth after 4:35 p.m., his Moon was in Aries.

  3. How he loved

    Venus in Cancer, the Nurturer

    Shows love by looking after people. Needs a partner who feels like a safe harbour.

  4. How he thought

    Mercury in Cancer, the Remembering Mind

    Thinks through feeling and memory. Listens well and remembers exactly how something was said. 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 (wide at 7.8°)

  5. What drove him

    Mars in Gemini, the Multitasker

    Busy, versatile and sharp. Gets moving through talk, travel and a steady supply of new plans. He worked for ideals: his drive came alive for a cause, a role or a dream.

    Mars trine Neptune (close at 2.0°)

  6. The shape of his chart

    In his chart, his identity, his mind and his heart (the Sun, Mercury and Venus) gather in Cancer, and that part of life drew his attention first. No earth at all, so the practical, settled side was the one he had to find.
