Casey's Astrology Chart: Casey was born on August 12, 1975 in Falmouth, Massachusetts. "Falmouth"......I bet they had fun with that name! He was born with the Sun in Leo and the moon in Libra. The moon is close to Uranus, which would say that Uranus is a key component in the Sun/Moon mix. Uranus brings unpredictability to the scene. His mother could be someone who is interested in astrology or new age things, or she could be a math teacher..it can run to extremes....and as someone who was an Aquarian, the late character actress, Juney Ellis, used to say, "how can you predict something that's unpredictable?" Saturn squares Uranus so father or someone in an authoritarian position didn't think much of the Uranus desire to be free and march to his own drummer. Casey was born in the Year of the Cat and the month of the Dragon. The Cat has issues, and can have neuroses do to someone in his life who picked, picked, picked on him perhaps. Cats can become overachievers and workaholics in order to show the people that tried to keep him down. Born in The Dragon energy, needs to be content and fulfilled; he needs to have his needs met or he's continually hungering after something else. Dragon babies needed to be fed when they were hungry and not on schedule. If on a schedule they felt they might never be fed again, so started to take in more at each feeding. This relates to life as they grow older.-Planetary Rythems
