what "signature" means
Not your Rising. Not your Sun.
your signature sign is the single sign that best summarises your whole chart's gestalt: the crossing of your dominant element (fire, earth, air, water) and your dominant modality (cardinal, fixed, mutable).
think of it like the genre of a playlist, not the first song. your Sun is the track everyone hears first. your Rising is how you walk into the room. signature is the mood the whole collection keeps returning to.
the Rising is the door. signature is the weather inside the house: six placements in water outvote one Aries Rising, every time.

signature sign
Cancer
Water · Cardinal
At the crossing of your dominant element (water) and your dominant modality (cardinal) sits Cancer: the sign that summarises the gestalt of your chart, distinct from your Sun, your Moon, or your Rising.
This echoes your Moon; the signature confirms the part of you that's most visible.
The runner-up sits close, so the signature carries a Cardinal-Fixed mix in practice.

Why Water?
the rising is the door; the signature is the weather inside the house. these are the heaviest-weighted placements that tipped the vote to water, whatever your Rising or Sun happen to be:

The feeling
There is no membrane between you and what you feel. It arrives whole, oceanic, with no off switch you have ever found. You learned early to absorb the room, and you are still learning that you were never supposed to carry all of it home.
The architecture
This is a Moon-Water chart, the Moon doubled into its own element, the most fluent emotional instrument the chart can produce. The software written into you before you could read it speaks pure feeling. You do not need things explained. You need them felt with you.
Gravity & hope
The work is the difference between empathy and absorption, between feeling with someone and dissolving into them. You are allowed to close the door sometimes.

The bodies steering your chart
Pullen-style breakdown: each body scored on a Position component (sign, house, dignity, rulership, sect, condition) and an Aspects component (orb-weighted contacts). The Percent sums to 100% across all bodies: your share of the total chart steer.

Asteria · the archetype library
Forty namings.
The kind of chart a person is, said in the voice of the reading rather than the textbook. Ten planets, four elements, every cell its own arc.
