What his chart says about him

  1. Who he was

    Sun in Leo, the Bright One

    Big-hearted and bright. Brings warmth into a room and loves to see other people do well. 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 Aries, the Quick Flame

    Quick to feel and quick to forgive. Needs to say it, do something about it and move on. He loved hard and held on hard, and letting go took him a long time.

  3. How he loved

    Venus in Cancer, the Nurturer

    Loves tenderly and protectively. Wants closeness, family and a feeling of belonging.

  4. How he thought

    Mercury in Leo, the Storyteller

    Speaks with warmth and confidence and tells a great story. Thinks in big, bold ideas. A poet’s mind: he heard what went unsaid, and his best ideas came from somewhere hard to explain.

    Mercury conjunction Neptune (wide at 3.1°)

  5. What drove him

    Mars in Leo, the Leader

    Bold, proud and full of drive. Wants to lead, works hardest on what is dear to him, and wants to be recognised for it. He took on more than any one person could, and his boldness ran ahead of his plans.

    Mars square Jupiter (close at 1.1°)

  6. The shape of his chart

    In his chart, his identity, his mind, his drive and his imagination (the Sun, Mercury, Mars and Neptune) gather in Leo, 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.
