What the chart says

In astrology, an Aries Sun reads as bold and first to act, with the Moon in Pisces or Aries depending on birth hour. By the book, Mercury in Aries + Venus in Taurus + Saturn in Capricorn reads as someone who thinks out loud and fast, enjoys good things slowly and learns to put the load down. Elements run fire 58%, earth 26%, water 16%, air 0%, cardinal first at 77%, the nearest mix to Noam Chomsky.
