It was all too mind-blowing. Cheating on Beyonc?! Just, like, why? How?
Now, seven years since the rumors of Jays infidelity first made the rounds in 2013, its clear Beyonc and Jay-Z have worked it out (though people named Becky still arent much better off). From the affair came growth that Bey sings about on Lemonade, reconciliation Jay-Z raps about on 4:44, a joint celebration album: Everything Is Love , and a vow renewal.
To get to this point where theyre purposefully showing up late to award shows together and still making headlines, Jay-Z says the couple leaned into the power of therapy and put in the work required to keep their marriage on track and their family intact. In the end, their efforts worked. But, according to astrology, the couple was always meant to work it out.
Beyonc and Jay-Z have the astrological signatures the make up a power couple that is in it for the long run, says Rachel Lang , an intuitive astrologer. Their synastry [a term used to describe compatibility in birth charts] shows this couple has the ability to weather rough patches and come out stronger in the end.
According to the stars, there's plenty more love to be shared between these two, plus, more collaborations, joint tours , and visual albums in everyone's future. Allow an expert to explain:
Their sun signs balance each other out.
Beyonc's detail-oriented Virgo is always there to check Jay's big-picture-focused Sagittarius and vice versa. It's not so much that they're trying to hold each other back, but instead, they're lifting each other up when necessary and bringing each other back down to earth when they start getting ahead of themselves. "They have a good balance between attending to the practical matters of life and dreaming big," says Lang.
Now, when it comes to the position of their suns, "Jay-Zs is almost exactly 90 degrees apart from Beyoncs Sun, which is a square aspect that indicates dynamic tension in this relationship," Lang explains. This "tension" might sound like a downside, but it also points to a strong connection. Sure, Bey and Jay know how to get under each other's skin and challenge each other, but they also know the best way to keep the peace and make sure the other is feeling supporteda biggie for long-term relationships.
It's worth noting that both Virgo and Sagittarius are mutable signs, meaning they're more adaptable than the others. They like to keep things interesting, Lang says. This trait makes Jay-Z and Beyonc capable of adopting "different perspectives and allows them to move through changes gracefully together," she adds. As we've seen, it hasn't always been easy, but Bey and Jay can take on whatever comes their way, adapt, adjust, and weather the storm accordingly.
Saturn creates challenges for them because they both like to be in control.
Saturn's all about commitment and stability. And as much as it can act as the "glue that sticks people together," says Lang, "it can also uncover challenges in a relationship." In Jay and Bey's case, Jay-Z's moonwhich dictates emotional security and someone's truest needsis conjunct (meaning it's at a 60-degree angle from) Beyonc's Saturn. Because of this positioning, Jay-Z, who values playfulness and downtime, sometimes struggles to understand Beyonc's seriousness. A major key to their relationship's success then, says Lang, is making and prioritizing time to relax and letting loose as a family.
Now, Jay-Z's Saturn on the other hand challenges Beyonc's Marsthe passion planet which brings up issues of control and power struggles, says Lang. "Its important they give one another space to be themselves and work together to accomplish shared goals, she adds. "If they allow frustrations or resentments to build, they may lose the passion and instead have conflicts."
Though their charts prove they can always find common ground after rough patches, these two take a while to healespecially Beyonc, "whose Scorpio Moon remembers every detail," Land explains. They value what the other says to say, so if what they hear is particularly cutting, the sting will last. Luckily, because they both have Libra, the sign of diplomacy and peace, featured prominently throughout their charts, Lang assures, fights between Bey and Jay are few and far between. "They are more concerned with getting along and creating a peaceful family and home life."
A strong creative and spiritual connection, thanks to Neptune, is what keeps them going.
Neptune is the planet of spirituality, creativity, andunsurprisingly, considering whose charts Lang's analyzingthe planet of music.
Beyonces Moon in Scorpio is conjunct Jay-Z's Neptune and her Neptune is conjunct his Mercury, the planet of communication. A conjunction like this one explains why two moguls and groundbreakers in the entertainment industry have been able to rise to superstardom, both in their own rights and as a team. "They can share dreams and ideas with one another and support one another in manifesting their dreams," Lang explains. "Neptunes influence shows they inspire one another and have a deep sense of compassion and empathy" for what the other is work toward.
And if that weren't enough, Neptune also points to psychic connections meaning Beyonc and Jay-Z's connection extends way beyond similar career goals. They're completely in tune with what the other wants and what the other's doing, so anything they try to hide from each other won't be a secret for long. When it comes to Bey and Jay, says Lang, the truth will always come out.
