Libra meets Gemini: The cosmic rise and fall of Kim Kardashian and Kanye West

Kim Kardashian and Kanye West, now known as Ye, spent nearly a decade redefining what it meant to be a power couple. She brought the glamour and media savvy of reality-TV fame, he brought the restless genius of a music icon, and together they turned their lives into a high-stakes performance.

Their lavish Florence wedding set the stage for a union built on shared ambition — one that, at the time, gave no hint of the fractures that would later unfold under the full glare of celebrity culture.

Kim, born October 21, 1980, is all Libra charm and Pisces sensitivity. Her Sun in Libra makes her diplomatic and image-conscious, while her Pisces Moon gives her an emotional depth that’s often hidden beneath a polished outlook.

But Kim’s Virgo streak (Venus and Jupiter in Virgo) adds a perfectionist edge and a need for control. In her marriage, Kim was the anchor, the one who smoothed the edges and kept the family grounded.

Ye, born June 8, 1977, is pure Gemini brilliance laced with Taurus stubbornness. His Sun in Gemini fuels his versatility and bold self-expression, while his Taurus stellium (Mercury, Venus, Mars) gives him a drive to create and build.

Like Kim, he carries a Pisces Moon, a placement that gives him an emotional depth, but also a tide of unpredictable highs and lows. His chart hints at a mix of inspiration and instability, the same energy behind both his creative genius and his public breakdowns.

Together, their charts clicked and clashed in equal measure. Their shared Pisces Moons created a soul-level bond, especially around family life and creative ventures. Kim’s Virgo placements worked amazingly with Ye’s Taurus ones, powering joint successes, like Yeezy fashion.

But their Libra–Gemini Sun square meant communication was a minefield: Kim’s diplomatic style versus his blunt, unfiltered outbursts. Ye’s emotional volatility eventually wore down her need for stability.

The astrology of their timeline as a couple reads like a script. In the early years (2012–2014), passion and synergy ruled, with their charts feeding each other’s ambition. Mid-marriage, they built both a family and an empire.

But as 2019 began, the cosmic weather turned stormy: Uranus in Taurus disrupted Ye’s grounding influence, while Saturn in Aquarius pushed Kim toward structure and control.

Ye’s 2020 presidential bid and increasingly erratic behavior clashed head-on with her Libra-Virgo need for order. By February 2021, Kim filed for divorce and by November 2022, it was final.

Correspondingly, the stars pointed to irreconcilable differences in rhythm and stability. Kim idealized Ye at first (the possible influence of Venus–Neptune square), but her practical Virgo side eventually took over. Ye’s chart thrives on unpredictability; Kim’s thrives on balance. The transits didn’t create the issues, they just brought them to the surface faster.

Even apart, their legacy as a couple lingers and a relationship that redefined the idea of a celebrity power pair. Their charts show what their marriage proved: love can be magnetic and transformative, but even the strongest connections need balance to last.
