NEBO's take

Canon says Capricorn. Our model says Taurus.

We ran Raye through the same model that matches people to characters in the app, and looked at which chart gets him most often. It reads him as earth first, with a lot of Taurus: steady, patient and stubborn.

    Canon's Capricorn is the agent who does the job exactly, day after day. Our Taurus is just as steady, with even more stubbornness.

  • Moon CanonLeoNEBO's takeTaurus

    Canon's Leo has a lot of pride and a big heart. Our Taurus keeps it quiet and solid.

    No birth time in canon. First impression: a calm, attentive man in a suit who sits where he can see everything.

    Capricorn Mercury logs every detail: the smallest change in his target's behavior doesn't escape him.

  • Venus CanonCapricornNEBO's takeTaurus

    Capricorn Venus loves slowly and for good. He is engaged to Naomi Misora.

  • Mars CanonSagittariusNEBO's takeTaurus

    Sagittarius Mars takes the risk and follows the lead all the way. Our Taurus would prefer to wait.

Where we agree: he does the job properly. Canon's Capricorn follows the procedure, and our Taurus doesn't quit.
