What the chart says

In astrology, a Taurus Sun reads as steady and patient, a Capricorn Moon as ambitious and long-term: the same element, so the two run smoothly, the same pair Joe Louis carries. By the book, Mercury in Taurus + Venus in Gemini + Saturn in Cancer reads as someone who decides slowly and won't budge, falls for a quick mind and learns to feel safely. Elements run earth 72%, fire 14%, air 9%, water 5%, fixed first at 53%, the nearest mix to John Stuart Mill.
