What his chart says about him

  1. Who he was

    Sun in Aquarius, the Free Thinker

    A free mind with a strong sense of fairness. Friendly to everyone and hard to pin down. Self-belief came slowly and had to be earned, one result at a time, and every result counted.

    The Sun square Saturn (wide at 4.4°)

  2. What he needed

    Moon in Aries or Taurus, the Quick Flame

    Feels things fast and hot, and gets over them fast too. Needs action, honesty and room to move. Feelings came second to duty: he held himself to a high standard, even in private.

    The Moon opposition Saturn (almost exact at 0.8°) · For a birth after 6:21 p.m., his Moon was in Taurus.

  3. How he loved

    Venus in Pisces, the Tender Heart

    Loves with compassion and imagination. Wants a romantic, gentle bond. Magnetic: affection and desire came together in him, and people noticed.

    Venus conjunction Mars (close at 1.3°)

  4. How he thought

    Mercury in Capricorn, the Planner

    Practical, measured and dryly funny. Trusts experience over theory and gets to the point. Facts and dreams blurred together in his mind: wonderful for stories, harder when details mattered.

    Mercury square Neptune (almost exact at 0.3°)

  5. What drove him

    Mars in Pisces, the Gentle Warrior

    Moves by intuition and feeling. Finds strength in service and in standing up for someone else. Quick and inventive in action: he moved fast, broke with habit and made sudden changes work.

    Mars trine Uranus (close at 1.0°)
