Aquarius Sun, Aries Moon, Capricorn Rising
The Crosswind Rebel, with Capricorn at the front door.
Friends with everyone, owned by no one
A Sun in Aquarius makes you an original. You come alive around new ideas, good causes and people who think differently. You want to be seen as independent, forward-thinking and true to your own principles, even when that puts you slightly outside the crowd.

Your Moon in Aries means feelings show up at full volume and leave just as quickly. You react first and reflect later, which makes you honest and easy to read. People always know where they stand with you, even on days you wish they did not.

Capricorn Rising gives you a composed, capable first impression. You approach life seriously and strategically, with an eye on long-term goals. People often assume you are older or more senior than you are, and then discover your very dry sense of humor.
More on Capricorn RisingHow the three combine
Your Sun, Moon and Rising sit in three different elements: air for who you are becoming, fire for what you need, and earth for how you meet the world. People who know one side of you may not recognize the others, and that range is one of your strengths.
Two of the three are cardinal signs, so your default is to starts things.
Your Sun and Moon: The Crosswind Rebel
Air fans fire here, so ideas catch quickly and turn into action. Your Aquarius Sun wants a better system, a fairer group, a future that makes more sense. Your Aries Moon needs to move now and cannot sit still while something is wrong. You are the one who starts the petition at lunch, or quits the club and founds a better one by the weekend. A fixed Sun holds firm views and a cardinal Moon charges ahead with them. Friends know you as principled, quick to defend the underdog, and occasionally too fast to pick a fight on someone else's behalf.
Capricorn Rising in front of it
People tend to take you seriously right away. You carry yourself with quiet authority and speak with care. Strangers read you as competent, reserved and possibly in charge; new coworkers may ask you questions you have no official reason to answer. You come across as trustworthy. Some find you hard to approach at first, until a well-timed deadpan joke breaks the ice.
Rising and Sun: Neighboring signs, 30 degrees apart. Different elements and a different pace: each holds something the other has just left behind.
Rising and Moon: Three signs apart, 90 degrees. The same modality in clashing elements: friction, and the kind of friction that gets things moving.
People see someone steady and in control. Inside, you may feel the weight of expectations more than you show, and you can doubt yourself while looking completely sure. The serious front protects a softer, funnier person. Letting people see you be silly, or admitting you are tired, often brings you closer to them.
