Søren Kierkegaard’s birth chart

What his chart says about him

1. 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. He kept redrawing the line between the life he had and the life he imagined.

   The Sun quincunx Neptune (almost exact at 0.5°)

2. What he needed

   ☽Moon in Cancer, the Nest-Maker

   Feels everything and needs a safe home and close people. Remembers every kindness. His feelings ran deep and held steady: he came through hard times with more strength than he went in with.

   The Moon trine Pluto (almost exact at 0.5°)

3. How he loved

   ♀Venus in Taurus, the Keeper

   Loves with patience, touch and loyalty. Shows it in comfort, good food and being there year after year. Charm came naturally: taste, warmth and a love of beautiful things were close to his core.

   The Sun conjunction Venus (wide at 5.3°)

4. How he thought

   ☿Mercury in Aries, the Spark

   A sharp, impatient mind. Cuts straight to the point and likes a good argument. Ordinary logic and sudden insight needed constant translating, and he spent time explaining how he got there.

   Mercury quincunx Uranus (close at 1.5°)

5. What drove him

   ♂Mars in Capricorn, the Achiever

   Determined, controlled and built for the long climb. Works patiently toward the top. Quick and inventive in action: he moved fast, broke with habit and made sudden changes work.

   Mars sextile Uranus (almost exact at 0.2°)

6. The shape of his chart

   No air at all, so stepping back to talk a thing through took deliberate effort.
