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

Sun in Aquarius
Degree: 22°
Open-minded and fiercely original, Sérgio Mendes 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 Leo
Degree: 17°
Passionate and intense, Sérgio Mendes 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.
