Aries Robert Downey Jr. and his wife Susan welcomed their new son, Exton Elias, on Tuesday morning in Los Angeles.
Exton is not a twin, but many things in his chart reveal more than one personality (metaphorically speaking, of course!). To mention a few: first, he was born with the south node in Gemini which lends curiosity, a strong intellect, and good verbal skills, but a lesser well-known quality of Gemini comes from the symbol that represents it: the twins. Gemini is a sign that has a strong element of duality.
This duality ripples through Exton's chart. His Aquarius Sun and Mercury are hidden away in the private 12th house. The Sun represents our core "power source," it is central to our sense of self and cohesiveness. In the 12th house, Exton will be most comfortable recharging himself with solitude, or more likely, retreating into his mind and imagination in the mental air sign of Aquarius.
But Exton was born with an engaging Leo moon, as it was building toward the full moon phase. The full moon, occurring when the moon is farthest away from the sun as
depicted in an astrological chart, is fully illuminated and therefore
bright and visible for all to see. These souls are often moved to extend
themselves out into the world, whether it's socially, professionally,
creatively, etc.

While Exton probably will not be overly gregarious in his personality characteristics, he will likely have quite a magnetic presence. The most striking thing about his chart is the planet Neptune, which is parked right on his Ascendant. The Ascendant is not just how we approach the world, it is also the impression that the world gets of us and therefore, how it responds to us. Neptune has a kind of mystery and fantasy about it that draws us to it. If you're wearing it on your sleeve, the world is drawn to you! But there is always that enigmatic quality to these people that leaves us wondering what's really going on behind-the-scenes.
Magnetic and captivating celebrities with Neptune close to the Ascendant: Marilyn Monroe, Bjork, Paul McCartney, Paris Hilton, and Suri Cruise.
