What his chart says about him
Who he was
Sun in Sagittarius, the Explorer
Restless in the best way. Wants to see more, learn more and say exactly what is on his mind. Born original: his identity and his need for freedom were the same thing, and he surprised people, himself included.
The Sun conjunction Uranus (wide at 3.9°)
What he needed
Moon in Libra, the Peacemaker
Needs harmony, good company and fairness. Feels best when everyone is getting along. Feelings came second to duty: he held himself to a high standard, even in private.
The Moon square Saturn (almost exact at 0.1°)
How he loved
Venus in Aquarius or Capricorn, the Kindred Spirit
Loves friend-first. Falls for a mind, needs room to breathe, and is drawn to people who are a little different. What he wanted from love and what love gave him kept needing adjustment, and he learned to see people as they were.
Venus quincunx Neptune (almost exact at 0.4°) · For a birth before 7:33 a.m., his Venus was in Capricorn.
How he thought
Mercury in Scorpio, the Investigator
A penetrating mind. Reads people well, speaks carefully and can tell when something is being hidden. A graceful mind: he spoke kindly and well, and he knew how to say a hard thing gently.
Mercury sextile Venus (close at 2.0°)
What drove him
Mars in Capricorn, the Achiever
Ambitious, disciplined and patient. Works hard and climbs steadily. Controlled force: he worked with patience and grit, and he finished what he started.
Mars conjunction Saturn (wide at 5.9°)
The shape of his chart
Jupiter is the hub of his chart: it takes part in five of its aspects, more than any other body, so his optimism touched everything else in it.
The sky the day he was born
The Moon
Walt Disney was born five days before a new Moon. At noon that day the Moon was 24% lit, in Libra. Tonight’s Moon
The day
