What the chart says

In astrology, a Leo Sun reads as warm and proud, a Scorpio Moon as intense and private: signs at a right angle, so outer self and inner self argue, the same pair Alfred Hitchcock carries. By the book, Venus in Virgo + Mercury in Leo + Jupiter in Taurus reads as someone who shows care by fixing things, talks like it's a stage and grows by building slowly. Elements run fire 37%, water 30%, earth 23%, air 9%, fixed first at 72%, the nearest mix to Vegetta777.
