What his chart says about him

  1. Who he was

    Sun in Taurus, the Gardener

    Steady as bedrock. Takes time to decide, and once something is chosen, it is kept and looked after. He reached for more than one life could hold: big plans, big promises, and a habit of saying yes before counting the hours.

  2. What he needed

    Moon in Scorpio or Libra, the Vault

    Still on the surface and strong underneath. Holds on to feelings, and to the people who earn them. He loved hard and held on hard, and letting go took him a long time.

    The Moon square Pluto (almost exact at 0.3°) · For a birth before 12:18 a.m., his Moon was in Libra.

  3. How he loved

    Venus in Taurus, the Keeper

    Loves slowly, loyally and through the senses. Once someone is let in, they stay in, and they are cared for in ways they can touch. What he wanted from love and what love gave him kept needing adjustment, and he learned to see people as they were.

  4. How he thought

    Mercury in Taurus, the Careful Thinker

    Thinks slowly and solidly. A mind, once made up, stays made up. His words had force: he spoke to persuade, and he kept his own counsel until the right moment.

    Mercury square Pluto (close at 2.8°)

  5. What drove him

    Mars in Cancer, the Defender

    Driven by feeling. Goes the furthest for something personal, and guards home fiercely. His purpose and his drive worked together: once he decided on something, he moved on it fast.

  6. The shape of his chart

    In his chart, his identity, his mind and his heart (the Sun, Mercury and Venus) gather in Taurus, and that part of life drew his attention first.
