Your Core Signs shape your core self, while the Inner and Outer Planets shape your personal traits and collective influences.
Sun in Aquarius
Degree: 7°
Open-minded and fiercely original, Rakim comes to revelations others wouldn't dream of, and once he's landed on an idea, good luck changing his mind. He's easy-going in groups and makes acquaintances effortlessly, though letting people in on a deeper level takes time. He'll always be the one to shake things up with a bold perspective that catches people off guard in the best way possible.
Moon in Capricorn*
Degree: 25°
Rakim tends to lead with his head over his heart, which helps him make clear-eyed decisions but can leave him emotionally detached when others need empathy. His mood is closely tied to whether he feels respected and on track with his goals — when those slip, low moods can creep in. Having a safe emotional outlet is important, because those feelings will surface whether he invites them or not.

Mercury Square Neptune
Orb: 0.4°
Rakim's mind walks a fine line between imagination and confusion — it can be hard to tell the difference between intuition and wishful thinking. This tension pushes him to develop better discernment, and once he does, his ability to blend the rational with the visionary becomes one of his most powerful gifts.
Moon Square North Node
Orb: 2.8°
Rakim's emotional comfort zone and his destiny sometimes pull in different directions. What feels safe and familiar may not be what grows him, and stepping into his purpose can feel emotionally uncomfortable at first. That tension is where his deepest growth lives.
Venus Square Uranus
Orb: 3.5°
Rakim craves both closeness and freedom, and these two needs can pull him in different directions. Relationships that feel too predictable lose their spark for him, but learning to find excitement within commitment — rather than outside of it — is where the real magic happens.
Venus Square Saturn
Orb: 5.4°
Love doesn't always come easy for Rakim — there can be feelings of unworthiness or a fear of rejection that hold him back. But this placement builds incredible resilience, and the relationships he does form tend to be deeply meaningful because he's earned every bit of trust.
Mars Opposition Pluto
Orb: 7.5°
Rakim is no stranger to power struggles — he may attract intense confrontations or feel compelled to prove his strength. This placement demands that he confront his relationship with control and power, and the reward is a profound self-mastery that few people ever achieve.
Mercury Opposition Jupiter
Orb: 7.8°
Rakim swings between getting lost in big ideas and needing to pay attention to the finer points. Others often serve as a mirror for this dynamic, pushing him to either expand his thinking or rein it in — and through that balance, he develops a mind that can hold both vision and detail.
