What the chart says

In astrology, a Libra Sun reads as charming and fair, a Cancer Moon as protective and loyal: signs at a right angle, so outer self and inner self argue, the same pair Gwen Stefani carries. By the book, Venus in Sagittarius + Mercury in Libra + Jupiter in Aquarius reads as someone who needs room to roam, argues both sides and grows through its crowd. Elements run air 42%, water 28%, fire 16%, earth 14%, cardinal first at 70%, the nearest mix to Ne-Yo.
