- NOTE: The celestial configuration that took place at your moment of birth is a powerful indicator of your motivations, drives, preferences, and psychological makeup, but it does not seal your fate. It does show the potential you were born with, but what you do with that potential is up to you.

Your Sun sign determines- Your Basic Ego, Self Image, The Self You are Most Aware of,  Your Conciseness, Your Personality and Your Individuality

Your Moon Sign Determines- Your Inner Emotional Self, Inner Qualities, Intuition, Feelings, Thoughts, Instincts

Mercury is about your communication style, how you think, how you solve problems, how you learn, what you're curious about, and some of your general interests.

Venus governs your romantic relationships, who you attract, how you attract them, your social skills, how affectionate you are, what you consider beautiful, what you want in a partner, and how you interact with others. It also oversees money – both spending and receiving (earning).

Mars is about your motivation, your initiative, your aggression, your confidence, your inner drive, your physical strength and stamina, what you want to achieve, where you put your energy, and how much of a risk-taker you are.

Jupiter governs your ethics, your philosophy about life, where you're lucky, where you're abundant, where you're cautious, and where you want to learn and how you can benefit from that knowledge.

Saturn describes your ambition in life, your major life lessons, and your feelings of inadequacy. Saturn is about restrictions, limitations, boundaries, safety, and practicality. It's about hard work and getting what you deserve.

Uranus governs where you seek freedom, where you're unconventional, where you stand out, what makes you rebel, where you do the unexpected, and where you'll find change.

Neptune governs what inspires you and where you're easily deceived. It's about illusion, confusion, imagination, and creativity.

Pluto represents where you feel powerless, where you want to take charge and feel more powerful, and where you experience great change. It's about the big events in your life, and getting rid of the old to make way for the new.
