Here's Why Rihanna Is Such a Badass Mom, According to Astrologers

If you grew up with mom of two-to-be Rihanna's chart-topping hits like "Shut Up and Drive" and "Umbrella" dominating your teenage years or you have a few Fenty Beauty lipsticks in your collection, you're probably fully aware of the influential impact she's made in the entertainment and beauty industries over the years. The Grammy-winning singer — who just announced her second pregnancy during her 2023 Super Bowl halftime show — is trendsetting and versatile — and she's proven her creativity in several outlets. Though talks about R9 are still developing (and probably even more delayed due to this new bundle), as you patiently wait, you can enjoy how the business tycoon showcases her talents and interests in other meaningful ways, like her size-inclusive and body-positive lingerie brand, Savage x Fenty.

Rihanna is one of the most recognizable celebrity faces, so you might think you know everything there is to know about the multitalented singer-turned-businesswoman, but there's even more to Rihanna written in the stars. To learn even more about this badass woman, POPSUGAR spoke with astrologers to get the scoop on Rihanna's birth chart.

The Big 3

Your sun, moon, and rising signs make up your big three in your birth chart. These placements reflect your core personality, emotional reactions, and how you express yourself in social situations. In order to calculate these placements, you do need to know your birthdate, birthplace, and time of birth. Though there are some claims about Rihanna's rising sign, it hasn't been officially confirmed, so we'll stick to her sun and moon signs.

Pisces Sun

Your sun sign symbolizes your outward personality including your quirks and core traits. Rihanna's sun sign is in daydreamy and artsy Pisces. As water signs, Pisces are emotionally in tune and have a creative way of expressing their feelings. Her sun sign also speaks to why Rihanna's skills and business ventures are so versatile, between singing, acting, and her Fenty lingerie and makeup lines.

"Her sun sign is at one degree Pisces, putting a double emphasis on Jupiter, which represents luck, and Neptune, the planet of creativity, and her ability to be in the right place at the right time and set trends," astrologer Tamerri Ater-Ntonni tells POPSUGAR. "Pisces is mutable water, the most fluid of the signs in terms of emotions, and one of the most compassionate." Rihanna has a close relationship with her fans, the Rihanna Navy, and it's clear that their closeness is largely due to this Piscean compassion that she shows them.

Aries Moon

Your moon sign represents emotional responses, including how you process and express them. Rihanna's moon sign is in brazen and spontaneous Aries. These signs are gutsy and bold, and when it comes to their emotions, they have no problem telling others how they really feel. It's no secret that Rihanna has a big, bold personality — have you seen her tweets? Or her fake-it-till-you-make-it interview with E! where she says, "It's either that, or cry yourself to sleep"? It's this boldness that endears so many fans to her and makes her relatable and aspirational to so many people.

"Even if we don't always notice it, Rihanna feels intensely, as her moon, which rules over her emotional nature, is in passionate Aries," Narayana Montúfar, House of Intuition astrologer, tells POPSUGAR. You get a glimpse of her emotional side if you've ever listened to ballads like "Love on the Brain" or "Higher."

Personal Planets

Mercury, Mars, and Venus make up your personal planets in your birth chart. These placements represent a few layers beyond your big three; they're all about your self-expression through communication, reactions, and how you express love platonically and romantically.

Aquarius Mercury

Mercury is the ruler of the mind and communication, which typically shows up in written and verbal communication. Rihanna's Mercury sign is in the rebellious and humanitarian sign of Aquarius. These air signs are focused on activism, which totally aligns with the "We Found Love" singer's activism for causes like the farmers' protests and being an education ambassador for her native country of Barbados.

"She was born with Mercury retrograde in the sign of Aquarius, the absolute favorite sign for the planet that rules communication and thought processes," explains Montúfar. "This tells us that she is a deep thinker, with a keen intellect."

Sagittarius Mars

Your Mars sign reflects the more primitive parts of yourself like aggression, knee-jerk impulses, and sensuality. Rihanna's Mars sign is in the adventure-seeking and philosophical sign of Sagittarius. This placement can speak to Rihanna's incredible range and experimental sounds on her last album, "Anti." Working alongside her Pisces sun, her Sagittarius Mars is also a great indication of her adventurous exploration of acting, singing, and various business ventures. She said in an interview for The Hollywood Fix that she's always looking for the next opportunity to expand, build, and evolve — a Sagittarian motto.

Sagittarius is ruled by Jupiter, the planet of luck and abundance; according to Montúfar, "Being the most worldly of all zodiac signs, this Sagittarius connection is what has helped her catapult to such magnanimous success."

Aries Venus

Venus is the planet all about love, romance, and beauty. It's manifested in personal relationships, but it's also shown in the way you dress and personal aesthetics. Rihanna's Venus sign is in bold and confident Aries, which feels so accurate for the "Ocean's 8" actor's interest in partners who are confident, as she mentioned in an interview on "The Ellen DeGeneres Show." "I can't have a guy that is intimidated by me," she said. "I like a man to be very sure, to be sure of themselves." It's also totally on brand for an Aries Venus to push aside the norms of pregnancy and trade in boring maternity clothes for her bold baby-bump style.
