What his chart says about him
Who he was
Sun in Taurus, the Gardener
Unhurried, warm and hard to rattle. Has a gift for comfort, beauty and making things that last. His confidence came easily and spread: he thought big, and other people wanted to come along.
The Sun trine Jupiter (close at 2.4°)
What he needed
Moon in Libra or Virgo, the Peacemaker
Unsettled by conflict and soothed by kindness. Needs good company and a sense that things are fair. Quick feelings and a quick temper: he reacted first, and his courage came from the same place as his flashes of anger.
The Moon square Mars (almost exact at 0.5°) · For a birth before 4:58 a.m., his Moon was in Virgo.
How he loved
Venus in Taurus, the Keeper
Slow to fall and slow to leave. Wants a love that feels safe, warm and real. Love came with high stakes: intense attachments, and a need to know exactly where he stood.
Venus square Pluto (close at 1.6°)
How he thought
Mercury in Taurus, the Careful Thinker
Thinks slowly and solidly. A mind, once made up, stays made up. Speaking freely and speaking carefully took constant balancing, and he weighed words before letting them go.
Mercury quincunx Saturn (almost exact at 0.1°)
What drove him
Mars in Cancer, the Defender
Protective to the core. Puts every ounce of strength behind family and the people dearest to him. He worked for ideals: his drive came alive for a cause, a role or a dream.
Mars trine Neptune (close at 2.9°)
