What the chart says

In astrology, an Aquarius Sun reads as original and independent, with the Moon in Cancer or Leo depending on birth hour. By the book, Sun in Aquarius + Venus in Aquarius + Saturn in Taurus reads as someone who refuses the default, wants a friend first and learns what's enough. Elements run air 65%, earth 23%, water 13%, fire 0%, fixed first at 71%, the nearest mix to Groucho Marx.
