What his chart says about him
Who he was
Sun in Aquarius, the Free Thinker
A free mind with a strong sense of fairness. Friendly to everyone and hard to pin down. Charm came naturally: taste, warmth and a love of beautiful things were close to his core.
The Sun conjunction Venus (wide at 4.5°)
What he needed
Moon in Scorpio, the Vault
Still on the surface and strong underneath. Holds on to feelings, and to the people who earn them. His head and his feelings argued: he knew what he thought before he knew what he felt, or the other way round.
The Moon square Mercury (close at 2.4°)
How he loved
Venus in Capricorn, the Loyal Partner
Loves seriously and steadily. Shows love through commitment and reliability.
How he thought
Mercury in Aquarius, the Inventor
Original and future-minded. Thinks in systems and finds new ways to do old things. Sharp words and a sharp mind: he argued well, sometimes too well, and a debate was a kind of sport to him.
Mercury square Mars (close at 1.5°)
What drove him
Mars in Scorpio, the Strategist
Intense, strategic and relentless. Keeps a goal close and doesn’t let it go. Drive and dreams mixed uneasily: the goal was clear to him, and the way to it harder to see.
Mars square Neptune (almost exact at 0.1°)
The shape of his chart
Mercury is the hub of his chart: it takes part in five of its aspects, more than any other body, so his mind touched everything else in it. In his chart, air and water signs hold the most planets: ideas and people, and feeling and intuition.
