Born on July 1, 1954?

The Sun, Mercury, Jupiter and Uranus were all in Cancer, so everyone born that day is a Cancer several times over. The Sun and Jupiter sat less than a degree apart in Cancer, a close conjunction shared by every chart from that day.

Planet signs are only part of the picture. Your rising sign changes about every two hours and the Moon moves half a degree an hour, so your exact birth time and place decide your houses, angles and Moon degree.
