An Astrology perspective on Kanye West

What is up with Kanye? Is he having a mental breakdown? What do the stars have to say about this?  Kanye was hospitalized on November 21 for “extreme exhaustion” following a string of onstage concert rants and then cancelling his entire Life of Pablo tour. The rapper, husband of Kim Kardashian just spent more than a week at UCLA Medical Center before being released on Wednesday, November 30.  

First of all KANYE is a GEMINI, he has a split personality anyways. The black/white, arrogant/insecure man/boy will always be there to some degree. 

A psychologist, Dr. Rahel Kitson has done a psychological perspective on Kanye

“Dialectical Thinking:  Holding two opposing points of view, both of which can be valid and consist of some truth.  How does Kanye do this?  He simultaneously rejects and worships fame.  He is an ascetic materialist, striving to be relatable to the common man, but also claiming to be the Steve Jobs and Michael Jordan of music, on par with the son of god.” 

Kanye comes from a well to do educated, middle-class background.  He has no O.OB. planets. Kanye’s just a typical Gemini with expansive Jupiter conjunct his natal SUN opposite his very creative, delusional, spiritual Neptune SUN.  What’s Kanye’s Motto? “Just do it big.”  Sounds exactly like Donald Trump’s motto too, doesn’t it?

Let’s check out Kanye’s chart and current transits.

Kanye West astrology chart and transits November 21, 2016

The first thing that pops out is that Kanye is having SATURN transiting OPPOSITE his Natal GEMINI SUN, something that only happens once every 28-29 years. He is halfway through Saturn conjunct his Sun in another 14-15 years. Saturn is conjunct his NATAL NEPTUNE in SAGITTARIUS which can bring depression to anyone’s dreams and creativity. Saturn, Lord of karma limits,  matures, tests and brings ill health and hardship to everything he touches. Kim Kardashian was recently robbed at gunpoint in Paris and tied up, she feared for her life. Kanye was on tour in the U.S. This must be a very harrowing experience for both of them now and probably encourages a sense of paranoia.

Plus SATURN is squaring Kanye’s creative and artistic PISCES MOON in his 9th house ruled by his natal Neptune in Sagittarius. Saturn restrictions limits, brings depression, maturity, tiredness and exhaustion. So it makes sense that Kanye would be feeling exhausted.

SATURN square a Natal Pisces Moon adds a  whole other element. Someone born with the Moon in PISCES, is a big psychic sponge, very very sensitive, creative, artistic and very spiritual. PISCES, like the sign of the two fishes, can display genius characteristics and also the opposite spectrum, of mental illness, paranoia, schizophrenia, delusions of grandeur, and of being God or seeing God. He calls himself Yeezus.  Kanye exhibits narcissism, grandiosity and whether it’s an act, Pisces moon peep sare great actors and chameleons, it is a self-fulfilling prophecy.

The Moon is always one’s mother and no closer relationship ever exists in the world. Kanye, an only child, was very close to his mother who passed away on November 10, 2007, suddenly from a heart attack. Kanye probably carries guilt around his mother’s death. Saturn would be bringing up melancholy.

URANUS the planet of chaos, lightning-fast reflexes, freedom, higher consciousness and revolution is sitting on Kanye’s South Node in ARIES at 22 degrees. Uranus is opposite his North Node in Libra which is disrupting his relationships and friendships-he’s been ranting about his former friends Beyonce and Jayzee. His marriage may go through a very rocky period and may even end. His sense of balance is off. 

PLUTO is also getting ready to cross a very important angle in anyone’s astrology chart the 7th house cusp, the D.C. or descendant, and oppose the Ascendant, the persona or mask we all wear.Pluto will cross the 18th degree of Capricorn in March and then Retrograde back a couple of degrees then move forwards again to 18 in December of 2017. 

Pluto will cross the 18th degree of Capricorn in March and then Retrograde back a couple of degrees then move forwards again to 18 in December of 2017.  Kanye’s soul will be laid bare for the whole world to see in the next two years. Pluto’s energy can be felt as very destructive, causing “deaths’ of many different kinds and rebirths. Pluto is one’s own personal shadows and unresolved psychological contents. If Kanye can get proper psychological help then he may be able to navigate this once in a lifetime transit. Mental breakdowns can also be very healing if the patient can be vulnerable and work through their old issues. This takes time and patience.

Potentially if Kanye is truly following his soul’s urgings then he may come out of this even stronger, more humble, creative and more whole. 

KANYE’S NUMEROLOGY

Kanye’s birthdate numbers reduce to June 8 1977= 6+ 8+ 1977= 1991 = 20/11/2. 

Kanye and I share the same numerology so I am very familiar with this meaning. A #20 Personality goes through constant rebirths and make-overs of their personality. He is an old soul, he has a Master Number 11 as his inner guide. He has depth and strength. His root or soul number is #2 the High Priestess. This is a very strong, emotional, intuitive, psychic, sensitive, feminine, number. For a man to carry the High Priestess energy can be very difficult. the H.P. is like the Moon, moody, changeable, mysterious, reflective, He mirrors what’s going on around him. People don’t know who he really is, and he is very connected to his mother, energy cycles and women. He has to be able to integrate his own feminine side fully. Again the #2 is duality, also a Gemini issue.

Time and lucky karma will tell. Modern pharmaceuticals may be prescribed to help block Kanye’s issues so that he can cope in a more “normal” spectrum. But these drugs only block and cannot heal the actual psychological and karmic issues and therefore create more karma on a spiritual level. I do not recommend them unless someone is seriously psychotic. There are alternative therapies and shamanic techniques, spiritual disciplines, changes in lifestyle and  bodywork  which can all bring wholeness.

Kanye is quite a creative man. He is the father of two young children The rigors of being famous which he has sought also carries a very high price. 

What do you think of the man and his work?

  1. Nice analysis Tara. To me he is definitely talented (in some ways), and quite charismatic, but suffers from delusions of grandeur (undeveloped Jupiter-Neptune). I agree about ‘relationship challenges’ coming up for him. Kanye was born in 1977, which is also the year that Chiron was discovered, which makes Chiron strong in his chart.

    Charismatic Chiron is natally in conjunction with his Venus, which also describes his (current) partner very nicely (and she is also a Venus-ruled Libran). Even though Chiron-Venus indicates personal charisma, and charisma in one’s relationships, it can also indicate wounding via the partner. And additionally with Kayne having Uranus opposite Venus in his natal chart, his (close) relationships are likely to be quite volatile and changeable.

    With transiting Pluto moving into his 7th house (related to Libra) of relationships next year, turbulence and change in this area of his life are likely. So I hope he can pull it all together and save a relationship that is obviously very important to him.

  2. hi Wizron, nice analysis too. I didnt want to go into too many details and yes the Nov 1 1977 discovery of Chiron of course would carry a stronger impact. Yes I can see the dangers coming too for this celeb couple. Money cannot buy you health happiness or any certainty although it helps for some things.
