What his chart says about him

  1. Who he was

    Sun in Capricorn, the Architect

    Patient and determined. Plays the long game, earns respect slowly, and grows warmer and more playful with the years. A quiet strength: under pressure he grew more focused, and he knew how to start over.

    The Sun trine Pluto (wide at 3.5°)

  2. What he needed

    Moon in Capricorn or Aquarius, the Steady Hand

    Keeps feelings under control and feels safest when life is organised and secure. His feelings liked freedom: he needed space in close ties and gave it back just as easily.

    The Moon trine Uranus (close at 2.1°) · For a birth after 11:44 p.m., his Moon was in Aquarius.

  3. How he loved

    Venus in Aquarius, the Kindred Spirit

    Unconventional in love. Drawn to the original and the independent, and needs room inside closeness. Magnetic: affection and desire came together in him, and people noticed.

    Venus conjunction Mars (almost exact at 0.2°)

  4. How he thought

    Mercury in Capricorn, the Planner

    A disciplined, realistic mind. Thinks in steps, plans for the long run and says only what is needed. He thought in pictures and music: his words carried a mood, and his imagination gave his ideas colour.

    Mercury sextile Neptune (exact at 0.0°)

  5. What drove him

    Mars in Aquarius, the Rebel

    Driven by ideas and fairness. Fights for change and does things differently. Restless and quick to rebel: he pushed against limits, and sudden decisions came with the territory.

  6. The shape of his chart

    Uranus is the hub of his chart: it takes part in five of its aspects, more than any other body, so his independence touched everything else in it. Most of his planets are in earth signs: the practical and the solid.
