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. Independence came easily: he did things his own way, and people found it refreshing rather than rude.

    The Sun trine Uranus (wide at 3.9°)

  2. What he needed

    Moon in Scorpio or Sagittarius, the Vault

    Feels hard and shows little. Needs loyalty, privacy and a few people worth trusting completely. His feelings and his imagination pulled in different directions: he lived between what was real and what he longed for.

    The Moon square Neptune (close at 2.2°) · For a birth after 8:35 p.m., his Moon was in Sagittarius.

  3. How he loved

    Venus in Leo, the Romantic

    Grand in affection and fiercely loyal. Likes to celebrate the people dearest to him. He loved too much of a good thing: pleasure, praise and grand gestures ran past what one life could use.

    Venus square Jupiter (close at 1.8°)

  4. How he thought

    Mercury in Cancer, the Remembering Mind

    A mind tuned to people. Hears what sits under the words and answers it gently. Speaking freely and speaking carefully took constant balancing, and he weighed words before letting them go.

    Mercury quincunx Saturn (close at 1.6°)

  5. What drove him

    Mars in Taurus, the Stayer

    Slow to start and impossible to stop. He worked steadily, built things to last and did not give up under pressure. Stamina and willpower: he kept going long after others stopped, and he did his best work under pressure.

    Mars sextile Pluto (wide at 4.0°)

  6. The shape of his chart

    In his chart, his identity, his heart and his imagination (the Sun, Venus and Neptune) gather in Leo, and that part of life drew his attention first. No air at all, so stepping back to talk a thing through took deliberate effort.
