What his chart says about him
Who he was
Sun in Virgo, the Fixer
Sharp-eyed and quietly kind. Sees how a thing could work better and rolls up his sleeves to fix it. A quiet strength: under pressure he grew more focused, and he knew how to start over.
The Sun sextile Pluto (almost exact at 0.8°)
What he needed
Moon in Taurus or Gemini, the Hearth
Settled by simple, solid comforts: a good meal, a quiet evening, the same people year after year. His head and his feelings argued: he knew what he thought before he knew what he felt, or the other way round.
The Moon square Mercury (almost exact at 0.2°) · For a birth after 4:39 p.m., his Moon was in Gemini.
How he loved
Venus in Libra, the Sweetheart
Made for partnership. Loves beauty, fairness and romance. A romantic with an artist’s eye: he saw the beauty in people and made it visible to others.
Venus sextile Neptune (close at 2.3°)
How he thought
Mercury in Leo, the Storyteller
Speaks with flair and conviction. Thinks in bold strokes and tells a story everyone remembers. A poet’s mind: he heard what went unsaid, and his best ideas came from somewhere hard to explain.
Mercury conjunction Neptune (wide at 4.5°)
What drove him
Mars in Virgo, the Craftsperson
Diligent and exact. Puts effort into doing a thing properly, step by careful step. Purpose and drive in one place: he was quick to start, quick to compete and hard to stop.
The Sun conjunction Mars (close at 1.7°)
The shape of his chart
The Sun is the hub of his chart: it takes part in five of its aspects, more than any other body, so his identity touched everything else in it. The weight of his chart sits in earth signs: the practical and the solid.
