What his chart says about him
Who he was
Sun in Aries, the Pioneer
Direct, brave and impatient with waiting. At his best with a fresh start and a door nobody has opened yet. Imagination and identity worked together: he could become a character, a mood or an idea, and make others believe in it.
The Sun trine Neptune (close at 2.3°)
What he needed
Moon in Virgo, the Mender
Shows feeling in practical ways: a fixed problem, a remembered detail, a cup of tea at the right time. What comforted him and what he loved were different things, so his heart and his moods kept negotiating.
The Moon opposition Venus (close at 3.0°)
How he loved
Venus in Pisces, the Tender Heart
Loves with compassion and imagination. Wants a romantic, gentle bond. Words with charm in them: he had an ear for a beautiful phrase, and people liked listening to him.
Mercury conjunction Venus (wide at 5.2°)
How he thought
Mercury in Pisces, the Poet
An intuitive, imaginative mind. Thinks in images and picks up what is left unsaid.
What drove him
Mars in Scorpio, the Strategist
Intense, strategic and relentless. Keeps a goal close and doesn’t let it go. He took on more than any one person could, and his boldness ran ahead of his plans.
Mars square Jupiter (almost exact at 0.9°)
The shape of his chart
In his chart, his mind, his heart and his independence (Mercury, Venus and Uranus) gather in Pisces, and that part of life drew his attention first. No air at all, so stepping back to talk a thing through took deliberate effort.
