What the chart says

In astrology, a Scorpio Sun reads as intense and private, a Cancer Moon as protective and loyal: the same element, so the two run smoothly, the same pair Kōhei Horikoshi carries. By the book, Mercury in Libra + Mars in Libra + Jupiter in Cancer reads as someone who argues both sides, fights by negotiating and grows through home and roots. Elements run water 70%, air 28%, fire 2%, earth 0%, cardinal first at 53%, the nearest mix to Yuri Gagarin.
