  • Three planets retrograde: Mercury, Mars and Neptune. George Carlin has the same set, 1 chart in 1377 here.
  • Mercury in Pisces with Jupiter in Capricorn. That pair shows up in 1 chart in 344 here, Mykola Lysenko and Ayrton Senna among them.
  • Water at 65%. Higher than 96% of charts here, with Rudolf Diesel among the few above it.

What the chart says

In astrology, a Pisces Sun reads as intuitive and dreamy, a Cancer Moon as protective and loyal: the same element, so the two run smoothly, the same pair Kurt Cobain carries. By the book, Venus in Aquarius + Mercury in Pisces + Saturn in Capricorn reads as someone who wants a friend first, thinks in pictures and learns to put the load down. Elements run water 65%, earth 19%, air 14%, fire 2%, mutable first at 53%, the nearest mix to Pablo Picasso.
