What his chart says about him
Who he was
Sun in Gemini, the Messenger
Quick, curious and good company. Collects facts, friends and stories, and can talk to anyone about almost anything. Independence came easily: he did things his own way, and people found it refreshing rather than rude.
The Sun trine Uranus (close at 2.5°)
What he needed
Moon in Gemini, the Talker
Light on his feet emotionally. Feels at home in a good conversation and gets restless in silence.
How he loved
Venus in Cancer, the Nurturer
Shows love by looking after people. Needs a partner who feels like a safe harbour. Love came in sudden starts and stops: he fell for people quickly and needed room just as quickly.
Venus square Uranus (close at 2.3°)
How he thought
Mercury in Gemini, the Quick Wit
Quick, witty and endlessly curious. Picks up a subject fast and can talk about ten things at once. A poet’s mind: he heard what went unsaid, and his best ideas came from somewhere hard to explain.
Mercury conjunction Neptune (almost exact at 0.3°)
What drove him
Mars in Sagittarius, the Champion
Goes after big goals with enthusiasm and a strong sense of right. Drive with the brakes on: he wanted to move, something held him back, and the friction made him tough.
Mars square Saturn (close at 1.2°)
The shape of his chart
