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

Sun in Gemini
Degree: 5°
Richard Schiff's mind never stops. He's always analyzing, conversing, and soaking up new information. He can strike up a conversation with anyone and bring energy to any social setting, but sticking to one opinion or project doesn't come as naturally. When things get too serious or high-pressure, he may struggle to buckle down, but he'll always be the one to get the conversation going again.
Moon in Leo
Degree: 24°
Passionate and intense, Richard Schiff wants his emotional life to feel like a movie. He loves recreational activities and uses them as an outlet for what he’s feeling, and he radiates a sense of nobleness toward those he cares about. If he senses someone doesn’t like him, though, it can get in his head, and the key is learning not to give his critics free rent up there.
