Taurus holds Mercury, Venus and Mars, next to 24 Grammy Awards

Kanye West

Mercury in Taurus, Venus in Taurus and Mars in Taurus is, by the book, a chart that keeps what works.

West's record asks for the opposite: the music is characterized by frequent stylistic shifts, from chipmunk soul production at Roc-A-Fella to The College Dropout in 2004 and on to 808s & Heartbreaks and Yeezus.

Eleven Billboard 200 number-one albums, 24 Grammy Awards, and the first rapper to top the Hot 100 across three decades.

Jupiter in Gemini is the better match on paper, the reading for a mind that keeps switching style.

What the chart says

In astrology, a Gemini Sun reads as curious and quick, a Pisces Moon as intuitive and dreamy: signs at a right angle, so outer self and inner self argue, the same pair Kendrick Lamar carries. Elements run air 35%, water 30%, earth 28%, fire 7%, mutable first at 63%, the nearest mix to Catherine, Princess of Wales.
