These are the clearest, most declarative colors in each sign family: the palette’s outward center of gravity.
Moon colors are typically cooler or quieter, reflecting private responses and emotional atmosphere.
Rising colors describe first impression; Venus colors add taste and attraction. Together they prevent a one-note zodiac palette.
Classic keeps the original base. Soft raises lightness and tempers saturation; Deep lowers lightness while preserving chroma.
A usable palette needs hierarchy. Let one placement lead, use another as support, and reserve the remaining colors for contrast and detail.
Choose one color for the largest surface, one for support, and one or two for accents. Always check the exact foreground and background combination before using a palette color for text.

Sun, Moon, Rising, and Venus represent different functions in the palette: presence, inner atmosphere, first impression, and aesthetic attraction.
