  • Water at 71%. Higher than 98% of charts here, with Tate McRae among the few above it.

What the chart says

In astrology, a Cancer Sun reads as protective and loyal, with the Moon in Libra or Scorpio depending on birth hour. By the book, Mercury in Cancer + Mars in Pisces + Saturn in Scorpio reads as someone who thinks through memory, fights sideways and learns to let go. Elements run water 71%, air 16%, fire 6%, earth 6%, cardinal first at 55%, the nearest mix to Hermann Hesse.
