Bey, Rih, and the Astrological Connection
Okay so, I am someone that's really into astrology (like OBSESSED) and this idea sort of just popped in my head today while reading through today's threads. I noticed the Beyhive and Navy have been clashing a lot lately, and it really got me thinking.
Beyoncé, like myself, is a Virgo. Virgo, the sixth sign of the Zodiac, is ruled by Mercury, the plant of intellect. Virgo is the sign of work, health, analysis, and perfectionism. Virgo is detail-oriented, and all about getting all of the pieces of the puzzle to fall together with impeccable timing and technique. Virgo will not stop working hard on something until they deem it utterly perfect. As an Earth sign, Virgo is guided by their logic, practical thought, and reasoning. Sounds like Bey, right?
Now Rihanna on the other hand, she is a Pisces. Pisces, the twelfth sign of the Zodiac, is ruled by Neptune, the planet of fantasy and spirituality. Pisces is the planet of psychic energies, compassion, dreams, and transformation. Pisces people are some of the most complicated people of the Zodiac; emotional sponges who are extremely receptive to the stimuli around them, and adapt to it. They are chameleons, constantly going through life reinventing themselves. As a Water sign, Pisces is guided by emotions, imagination, and intuition. Sounds a lot like Rih Rih to me.
Both of these women are quite literal personifications of their sign. And here's the real kicker: Virgo and Pisces are OPPOSITE SIGNS on the Zodiac wheel. They both embody something that the other lacks. Maybe the reason some people like Beyoncé is because they relate to her hard work and dedication to her craft, while others prefer Rihanna because of her constant reinvention of herself each era.
I realize that not everyone believes in astrology, but I find the comparison here to be uncanny. Maybe I'm rambling, or maybe I'm on to something. What is your sign, and what is your fave's sign? Do you have the same sign? Do you see any connections between your personality and your fave's that might be the reason you're drawn to them?
Discuss.

Interesting. I don't really believe in all this, but it's interesting.
I'm an Aries and apparently that makes me a horrible human being... Or so I've been told by people who love this sort of stuff.

Pisces
I myself am Cancer which is another water sign and I can relate to her all the time. It's all about feelings and constant reinvention.
My dad is a virgo hmm. They are like really balanced people, very serious as well. Bey's a real virgo tho but I can't relate to her personality as much as my crazy bitch Rih!

Being an Aries, or any other sign, doesn't automatically set you up to be a good or bad person. You're likely to have a temper and be impatient, but you're also a natural leader and very determined.
Lady Gaga is an Aries.

Great read, I won't deny.
I'm a Cancer and Cancer is almost as emotional as Pisces, so I'm supposed to stan for Rihanna, in that case. However, my rising sing is Capricorn which also is a perfectionist and moves with their logic, so I'm balanced.

Great read, great thread
Pisces >>> I am a cancer with scorpio rising but with a virgo moon... but I relate to water signs more. However some of my friends are virgos though and its true they're perfectionists but can also change their minds alot
Q - Because I have am a Cancer and I have scorpio rising and a virgo moon? what starsign am I most compatible with?

Thanks sis! I was afraid this would flop after I sat here and typed this essay.
I'm a Virgo with a Capricorn Moon and Sagittarius Rising. I stan for and identify with both women, but Rihanna just a bit more. Which is weird because I have almost no water in my birth chart.

Virgos and Pisces get along so well. All of my best friends (Pisces) were literally born within a week of each other (why I believe this stuff).
I share Beyoncé's birthday of September 4th.

I'm a cancer as well, and while I like Rihanna, I certainly don't feel the same way about her as I do Beyonce.
For me, reinvention isn't really what I'm looking for in a popstar. I need jaw dropping vocals and hot dance moves (at the same time if possible) and I want to be thoroughly entertained. I don't need a new costume or haircut or even a new sound to make me feel for the artist although it's certainly interesting to see.
I also don't believe too much in astrology. Also Madonna means much more "reinvention" to me but she isn't a pisces.

I love you for this
Knowing that we both stan for Bey and Rih and I am just as obsessed with astrology, this thread makes me scream. Rih is the ****ing definition of a Pisces, I swear. I'm a Gemini but I feel like I connect more with Rih (I do have a Pisces rising though) yet I have more personal traits in common with Bey's Virgo-ness

It's widely known that Cancers make great bestfriends and wifes/husbands because of their loyalty. The fact that I don't have a real bestfriend contradicts this ****in' ****.

I cannot make her out that much. Beyonce is never that open with her feelings and I don't feel connected with her. She's just an artist to me with 0 sentimental value. Rihanna shows everything of herself to the world and that's what I can appreciate because I get to see her as a person. A Beyonce song never hits me as hard emotionally as a Rihanna song.
My rising is Cancer so I'm Cancer Cancer. There is nothing more important than emotion to me. If Rihanna could dance like MJ, but without emotion, it'd be numb to her and her performances.
