What his chart says about him
Who he was
Sun in Pisces, the Dreamer
Imaginative, gentle and very aware of how others feel. People leave a conversation with him feeling understood. A quiet strength: under pressure he grew more focused, and he knew how to start over.
The Sun trine Pluto (close at 2.4°)
What he needed
Moon in Libra or Scorpio, the Peacemaker
Needs harmony, good company and fairness. Feels best when everyone is getting along.
For a birth after 2:28 p.m., his Moon was in Scorpio.
How he loved
Venus in Pisces, the Tender Heart
Loves selflessly and romantically. Sees the best in people and gives without counting. He loved too much of a good thing: pleasure, praise and grand gestures ran past what one life could use.
Venus opposition Jupiter (wide at 3.6°)
How he thought
Mercury in Aries, the Spark
A sharp, impatient mind. Cuts straight to the point and likes a good argument. Meaning came to him before the words did, and clear speech followed the feeling.
Mercury quincunx Neptune (close at 1.0°)
What drove him
Mars in Virgo, the Craftsperson
Diligent and exact. Puts effort into doing a thing properly, step by careful step. Thinking and doing kept getting out of step: he acted on half a thought, or thought past the moment to act.
Mercury quincunx Mars (close at 1.4°)
The shape of his chart
In his chart, his drive, his optimism and his imagination (Mars, Jupiter and Neptune) gather in Virgo, and that part of life drew his attention first.
