Degree: 26°
Nina Simone tends to lead with her head over her heart, which helps her make clear-eyed decisions but can leave her emotionally detached when others need empathy. Her mood is closely tied to whether she feels respected and on track with her goals — when those slip, low moods can creep in. Having a safe emotional outlet is important, because those feelings will surface whether she invites them or not.
