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

Sun in Virgo
Degree: 1°
Elvis Costello catches every little detail others miss, and his sense of logic is hard to match. A natural perfectionist, he thrives on organization and finding tangible solutions, but that same eye for detail can make him overly critical when things don't go exactly to plan. It may take him a while to warm up socially, but once people get to know him, his presence becomes almost addicting.
Moon in Cancer*
Degree: 25°
Elvis Costello is deeply in touch with his emotions and feels strong nostalgia for people and places that made him feel safe. Most of his decisions are guided by intuition rather than logic, and that instinct is usually right. He feels things with almost psychic depth, both the highs and the lows, especially when triggered by family or romantic struggles.
