Your Core Signs shape your core self, while the Inner and Outer Planets shape your personal traits and collective influences.

Sun in Libra
Degree: 2°
Charming and fair-minded, Carlos Ruiz Zafón always weighs both sides before making a call, though actually landing on a decision is another story. He thrives in social settings and genuinely cares about people, but he can lean toward people-pleasing over standing firm in his own convictions. His sweet-talking nature and empathy make him a great mediator, even if he sometimes struggles to apply that clarity to his own life.
Moon in Taurus
Degree: 20°
Emotionally steady and grounded, Carlos Ruiz Zafón doesn’t overreact to things that aren’t worth the energy. It takes a lot to rattle him, but when something that brought him stability falls apart, he feels it deeply and can become reclusive. He values trust above all else and is drawn to people and situations he can truly rely on.
