Chappell Roan’s Astrology: A Star in the Making

Chappell Roan is a singer who’s best known for her mega hits Pink Pony Club, Hot To Go and Good Luck, Babe. She’s got vocals, she’s got visuals, and she’s got a temper that some people deem too spicy for public life. Does this new pop star have what it takes for life long fame and success, or will she fade into the background of music? Let’s look to her astrology chart for the answers.

Pisces Sun and Aquarius Mercury In the 5th House

Pisces people make great art, so having a sun in Pisces is sure to keep the creative juices flowing for a lifetime. From Rhianna to Kurt Cobain, Pisces sun people make the kind of music that long outlives their own lives, so Roan is in good company with this sun sign. The 5th house is a very creative place for a Pisces sun. It adds a bit of playfulness to this often maudlin water sign. We see this playfulness come out in her delightfully catchy beats and lyrics as well as her costumes and stage presence.

Chappell Roan also has Mercury, at the final degree of Aquarius, sitting very close to her Sun. The final degree of any sign is important, so important it has its own name: the anaretic degree. Mercury loves being in cerebral Aquarius and it is at its most powerful at the anaretic degree. This means that she has a strong voice, and when she believes in something she will be very vocal about it. We’ve seen the power of her Mercury come out when she’s spoken against such injustices such as paparazzo’s treatment of women and the mistreatment of young artists by their record labels.

Chappell Roan: Sagittarius Moon Conjunct Pluto in the 2nd House

When any two planets are in the same sign and nearly the same degree (if not the exact same degree) it is called a conjunction. A moon Pluto conjunction is tough! This aspect makes for a stormy and dark inner world, yet it also cultivates a fertile ground for psychic abilities and intuition (once she can overcome her more paranoid proclivities).

While this is a deeply creative aspect, it is also an incredibly hard one to have in a natal chart. The pros often do not outweigh the cons unless lots of therapy or spiritual practices are utilized. This is a hard placement to have when you are in a public facing career since it makes it possible for everyone to have an opinion about her life and choice.

Libra Rising

Libra is a Venus ruled air sign, so beauty and aesthetics are deeply interwoven into Roan’s world view. She is certainly known for her flamboyant costuming, from dressing as a Mexican wrestler, a magician, Marie Antoinette and even as the drag queen Divine. Drag queens are someone Chappell Roan attributes a lot of her own styling from, and she does have a very drag aesthetic with big wigs and colorful makeup. Libra risings are always going to have a bit of that X factor, and as her career continues you can certainly expect to see a lot more glitter, rhinestones and conceptual fashion pieces that are their own works of art.

Venus in Capricorn in the 3rd House

Speaking of Venus, since Roan is a Libra rising (and remember Venus rules Libra) her ruling planet is Venus. Her own Venus is in Capricorn in the 3rd house. Venus doesn’t necessarily love being in restrictive Capricorn. On the topic of love, a Venus in Capricorn person can struggle with their rigid requirements for partnership. Yet, this same rigidity can often mean that these people only fall in love when it is true and right for them.

As an artist, this shows that Roan has a clear concept of who she is and what the message of her music is. When things fall outside of her aesthetic and vision she is not happy. Perhaps what others deem as “hot headed” or “difficult” in Chappell Roan is actually a clear vision and an ability to call out BS when she sees it.

Mars in Pisces in the 5th House

Mars in Pisces is a tough placement since Pisces is such a liminal and emotional sign, yet Mars is the planet of force, direction and passion. Though there is no shortage of the latter element when it comes to Mars in Pisces, she can struggle to distance herself from her art. Chappell Roan is her celeb alter ego, but the boundaries of her own true self and her performance self can get muddled. This can certainly mean that the art she produces and continues to produce will always be heartfelt and important, but she does run the risk of losing her true self to her celebrity self.

Midheaven in Cancer

The midheaven is the point in your chart which explains how the public views you, and it can shed some light on your career. Cancer is the sign of the mother, a term used often now by pop fans to exclaim adoration for your chosen pop star (for example, “Chappell Roan is mother!!) People with their midheaven in Cancer tend to be drawn to careers where they can help other people. Being a pop star may not sound like the most nurturing career at first, but Roan has always used her platform to speak out for those in need, very mother of her.

Conclusion: Does This Star Have Staying Power?

After 10 years of hard work and big dreams, Chappell Roan has finally become a name on everyone’s lips. While some may think her fame is nearsighted and anxiously await her downfall, others are rooting for her to make it all the way to the top. There is certainly no shortage of talent and artistic vision in her birth chart, so her potential for being a lifelong star is immense. The only thing that could knock her down is the pressure of being in the public eye. After seeing so many other young female stars be crushed by the weight of fame (Britney Spears, Lindsey Lohan, Amanda Bynes, Pamela Anderson to name a few), it’s also very possible that Chappell Roan could help usher in a new future for women in the music industry. I think it’s pretty safe to say that Chappell Roan isn’t going anywhere anytime soon.
