What his chart says about him
Who he was
Sun in Gemini, the Messenger
A mind that won’t sit still. Lights up at a new idea and loves passing it on before it has cooled. His purpose and his drive worked together: once he decided on something, he moved on it fast.
The Sun sextile Mars (almost exact at 0.4°)
What he needed
Moon in Pisces, the Tide
Feels the mood of a room from the doorway. Comfort comes from water, music, softness and kindness. Feelings came second to duty: he held himself to a high standard, even in private.
The Moon square Saturn (almost exact at 0.7°)
How he loved
Venus in Cancer, the Nurturer
Shows love by looking after people. Needs a partner who feels like a safe harbour. His taste and his appetite for more needed adjusting: he kept learning what was enough.
Venus quincunx Jupiter (close at 2.0°)
How he thought
Mercury in Cancer, the Remembering Mind
Thinks through feeling and memory. Listens well and remembers exactly how something was said. Feeling and thought spoke the same language: he could put a mood into words, and his words carried feeling.
The Moon trine Mercury (wide at 3.4°)
What drove him
Mars in Leo, the Leader
Bold, proud and full of drive. Wants to lead, works hardest on what is dear to him, and wants to be recognised for it. He took on more than any one person could, and his boldness ran ahead of his plans.
Mars opposition Jupiter (close at 1.5°)
The shape of his chart
In his chart, his mind, his heart, his imagination and his intensity (Mercury, Venus, Neptune and Pluto) gather in Cancer, and that part of life drew his attention first. No earth at all, so the practical, settled side was the one he had to find.
The sky the day he was born
The Moon

The day
