Born 1948–56, with Uranus in Cancer? Then a partner’s Mercury in Taurus or Virgo makes the sextile.

To check it by degree: Uranus at 10° Taurus makes the sextile with Mercury anywhere from 4° to 16° of Cancer or Pisces — the 60° angle give or take 6°. The chart goes by sign, but the sextile also forms across a sign line: Uranus at 1° Taurus and Mercury at 29° Gemini are 58° apart, a semi-sextile by sign.

Years are first entry to final exit, so neighboring rows overlap where Uranus stepped back on a retrograde. Source: NASA JPL DE440.
