What the chart says

In astrology, a Virgo Sun reads as precise and self-critical, a Leo Moon as warm and proud: neighboring signs with little in common, which astrologers read as a low itch, the same pair Redfoo carries. By the book, Venus in Leo + Mercury in Libra + Saturn in Cancer reads as someone who wants grand gestures, argues both sides and learns to feel safely. Elements run fire 47%, earth 37%, air 9%, water 7%, fixed first at 56%, the nearest mix to Duke Ellington.
