Gemini Sun, Capricorn Moon, Libra Rising
The Buttoned-Up Breeze, with Libra at the front door.
Ten tabs open, and all of them matter
A Gemini Sun makes you a collector of ideas, people and stories. Learning something new gives you a real buzz, and so does telling someone about it five minutes later. You want to be seen as clever, interesting and fun to talk to.

The Moon in Capricorn keeps feelings under careful management. You feel safest when you are capable, prepared and in charge of your own life. People lean on you because you stay steady, though you can forget that you are allowed to lean too.

Libra Rising gives you a graceful, friendly first impression. You approach life through relationships and look for balance in whatever you do. People find you easy to like, and you tend to smooth over awkward moments before others even notice them.
More on Libra RisingHow the three combine
Two of your three are air signs (ideas, talk and a need for room), and your Moon brings earth (patience, the senses and things you can hold). That single earth placement is the part of you that surprises people who think they have you worked out.
Two of the three are cardinal signs, so your default is to starts things.
Your Sun and Moon: The Buttoned-Up Breeze
Witty outside and structured inside, you carry mutable air in the Sun and cardinal earth in the Moon. You want variety, conversation and new ideas; you need achievement, order and respect. You might crack jokes all through a meeting and then go home and rebuild the project timeline in a spreadsheet. Your humor is dry and a little dark. Emotionally you are more reserved than most Gemini types: you handle a problem first and talk about how you felt later, if at all. People underestimate how ambitious you are.
Libra Rising in front of it
People tend to like you quickly. You smile, ask about them and find something kind to say, so strangers feel welcome. You come across as polite, easygoing and well put together. In a tense room you are the one who changes the subject at the right moment. Some may assume you agree with them, since you listen so graciously, even when you privately do not.
Rising and Sun: Four signs apart, 120 degrees, in the same element. A shared instinct and rhythm that rarely needs explaining.
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 pleasant and composed. Inside, you may be weighing a conflict you have not mentioned, or holding an opinion you are not sure is welcome. Keeping things smooth takes more effort than it looks, and you may feel pressure to be the nice one. Saying no once in a while shows people the steel under the grace.
