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 sextile Uranus (wide at 3.1°)
What he needed
Moon in Cancer, the Nest-Maker
Feels everything and holds on to what matters. Needs a place to come home to and people who stay. His feelings ran large: he wanted more comfort, more company and more of everything than any one day gave.
The Moon square Jupiter (close at 1.4°)
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. Love came in sudden starts and stops: he fell for people quickly and needed room just as quickly.
Venus square Uranus (wide at 4.4°)
How he thought
Mercury in Cancer, the Remembering Mind
Thinks through feeling and memory. Listens well and remembers exactly how something was said. Sharp words and a sharp mind: he argued well, sometimes too well, and a debate was a kind of sport to him.
Mercury opposition Mars (wide at 6.7°)
What drove him
Mars in Capricorn, the Achiever
Ambitious, disciplined and patient. Works hard and climbs steadily. He worked for ideals: his drive came alive for a cause, a role or a dream.
Mars trine Neptune (almost exact at 0.3°)
The shape of his chart
In his chart, his heart, his imagination and his intensity (Venus, Neptune and Pluto) gather in Taurus, and that part of life drew his attention first. The weight of his chart sits in earth signs: the practical and the solid.
