Section I · The core

The two luminaries

Two lights set the tone of the whole chart: the Sun, the identity; the Moon, the emotional world.

Kanye West's Sun, in Gemini

Your identity lives in curiosity: you are bridge, translator, permanent question. It unfolds through versatility, movement and the play of ideas. You need to explore, build bridges, ask questions and connect concepts in order to understand the world.

Kanye West's Moon, in Pisces

Your emotional world is porous and vast: you absorb other people's weather like a sponge and give it back turned into art or consolation. Your inner security needs places to retreat, imagination, rest and creative outlets to channel your immense sensitivity.

Section II · The map
