I had some time to boot up iTunes today so I just happend to download Eminem’s newest song, and before long found myself looking up Eminem & his long-time girlfriend/wife/ex/nemesis Kim’s birth charts. If the birthdays I found for both of them are correct, it is not hard to see why they are like oil and water!

Eminem’s Venus (relationship) sign is in Virgo, possibly the worst sign for marriage. These people are best suited to be with someone who doesn’t mind their perfectionist approach to a relationship. They want to be selfless and are truly devoted to their partners, but can come off as nit-pickers and controllers. On the other hand, Kim’s Venus sign is in Aquarius which is one of the most freedom-oriented signs as far as relationships are concerned. She needs time with her friends (or to do whatever she wants!) and will rebel against feeling trapped, controlled, or feeling like her off-beat ideas are not appreciated. She has more than one Aquarius in her chart, plus a good serving of Sagittarius, which all intensify her need for freedom. You can see why they were attracted to each other though…Eminem’s Mercury (which controls his thoughts) is in Scorpio, which would be intellectually stimulating to Kim. Because of Kim’s Mars in Sagittarius, she could be a bit of a nevous/anxious/tense person if she doesn’t have enough physical activity. It was cool to see so much Libra in Eminem (Mars & Sun sign), which can give him his great taste in music, the finer things in life, and also the fairness that you see in his lyrics, along with his intense thirst for justice which also appears as a theme in his music. His Saturn in Gemini could make him the well-prepared, well-rehearsed rapper who will seldom fail to perform well. With a Jupiter in Capricorn, he will work his ass off for what he wants, and he demands results.

See why astrology is so fun?
