Sun in Libra
Degree: 17°
Charming and fair-minded, John Nettles 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.
