What his chart says about him

  1. Who he was

    Sun in Libra, the Diplomat

    Drawn to beauty, good manners and a fair deal. Works best with a partner and hates a needless fight.

  2. What he needed

    Moon in Sagittarius, the Free Spirit

    Restless and good-humoured. Feels best with a plan for the next adventure and the freedom to change it. His feelings ran deep and held steady: he came through hard times with more strength than he went in with.

    The Moon trine Pluto (close at 2.6°)

  3. How he loved

    Venus in Scorpio, the Devotee

    Loves intensely and loyally. Wants a close, honest bond and nothing less. Charm and desire worked together: he knew what he wanted in love and how to win it.

    Venus sextile Mars (wide at 3.1°)

  4. How he thought

    Mercury in Scorpio, the Investigator

    Thinks in depth and wants the real story. Says little and notices everything. Serious thoughts: he said less than he knew, and what he said held up.

    Mercury conjunction Saturn (close at 3.0°)

  5. What drove him

    Mars in Capricorn, the Achiever

    Disciplined and steady. Plans the route, does the work and gets there in the end. Drive and dreams mixed uneasily: the goal was clear to him, and the way to it harder to see.

    Mars square Neptune (wide at 6.2°)

  6. The shape of his chart

    In his chart, his mind, his heart and his discipline (Mercury, Venus and Saturn) gather in Scorpio, and that part of life drew his attention first. In his chart, water signs hold the most planets: feeling and intuition.
