Lana del Rey (Lizzy Grant) was born on June 21st, the last day the Sun is in the house of Gemini. The six days between June 19 and June 24 are know among astrologers and astrology students as the Gemini/Cancer cusp or ‘The Cusp of Magic’ (The author of ‘The Secret Language of Birthdays, Gary Goldshnider, explained the concept ten years ago). A cusp is the imaginary line that separates two consecutive signs in the zodiac wheel. When a person is born in a cusp, they are influenced by the traits of both signs, which explains the mixture of Lana’s somber and nostalgic lyrics and the  emotions she share in them (both very Cancer-like) and her keen writing skills and nervous but gracefull demeanor (very Gemini-like).

What is more, Astrotheme, one of the most trustworthy data sites, has Lana’s almost complete birth chart (a concept that you were probably completely ignorant about, until now) published and analized, and it’s clear that she’s was born when the Sun was located at 29 degrees, 59 minutes of Gemini. This means that even much of the Sun’s ratio was in Cancer, she’s a Gemini: http://www.astrotheme.com/astrology/Lana_Del_Rey

Prince William of Wales was also born on June 21, but he’s a Cancer, because the sun was at 0°06 degrees of Cancer when he was born (i’ve even included him in my Birthday’s tag because he’s a cusp). http://www.astrotheme.com/astrology/Prince_William,_Duke_of_Cambridge 

If we ignore the ‘cusp’ thing, one can clearly read in her birth chart that Mecury (the planet that describes our communication skills and the way relate to the external world), is located in the emotional and complex sign of Cancer. If you are smart enough to click on the symbol of Mercury over Lana’s chart, you will read the following: 

“Your intellect [Gemini] and your sensitivity [Cancer] are indisocciable. Your behaviours are influenced by ambiances and by emotions, aroused as you contact other people. You assimilate trough feelings and images. Communication [Mercury] means exchanging your perceptions [Gemini] and conveying emotions [Cancer].”

So, as you can see, the cancer traits are all over her chart. It has nothing to do with her sun sign. And even if the degrees are incorrect, Lana is a Gemini/Cancer cusp, with a powerful Mercury in Cancer, which explains why she’s so ‘moony’. And if you’re still skeptical about the chart being about her, you can read the interpretation of her 24° cancer symbolic degree, and you will recognize that she was born with an “independent, imaginative and rebellious character. And that [she] is driven by the certainty that the criticism underwent at the outset will turn into praises once success is achieved”. That’s so Lana del Rey.

Finally, your argument about her ‘cancer face’ or heart-shaped face, is invalid: the physical appearance is related a lot more to the ascendant sign than to the sun sign. And, as i answered many weeks ago when i was asked about her rising sign (http://gemin-i.tumblr.com/post/17452988590/what-do-you-think-lana-del-reys-ascendant-is-my-guess), i think she has a Cancer ascendant, because of her smile, nose, eyes, and because she reminds me of other Geminis with Cancer in the ascendat like Angie Jolie. Hopefully you can stop sending useless and ignorant messages now :)

That’s a good guess. She does have good sense of style and beauty and she does seem friendly. She’s also very atractive and charming. But i always thought it might be Cancer, she reminds me a lot of Angelina Jolie in some pictures (but it might be just the lips), and she does get flustered in public. Leo fits her better, and her shyness probably just comes from being a Gemini.
