Astrology Analysis: Nicki Minaj.
Nicki Minaj is a world-renowned rapper, singer, and entrepreneur who is a powerhouse and will go in the history books as one of the best female emcees of our time and history. Let's dig into her natal chart!
The Big 3:
Sun in Sagittarius:
In my personal experience with Sun in Sagittarius people, they tend to be some of the most down-to-earth people you'll ever meet! Nicki Minaj possesses a one-of-a-kind connection with her fanbase and supporters, and her sun being in the mutable fire sign of Sagittarius may have something to do with it. Sun in Sagittarius folk tend to be honest, "let's get to the point," and I follow the sound of my own beat type of people. Nicki Minaj has been transparent in many interviews and online platforms regarding her truth in the things she has experienced in life, the music industry, and her dynamics with colleagues. Her sun in Sagittarius allows Nicki Minaj to pursue her passions and career with a can-do attitude and a bit (or a lot) of fierceness.
Moon in Virgo:
Another personal experience with individuals with Virgo in the big 3 is that they can outwork you! This allows them to sense minor or out-of-place details that go unnoticed by common folk when someone has their moon in Virgo. I would not be surprised if Nicki prioritizes structure and order regarding her workspace or when it comes down to handling business. In other words, she does not accept "the pickle juice" when she knows there is a golden opportunity to let her talents shine or defend her position. With her moon in the sign of Virgo, even when she wants to act impulsively, she will take the road of calculating her next moves and decisions.
*Due to not having her exact birth time, knowing her rising/ascendant sign is impossible.
Personal Planets:
Mercury in Sagittarius:
Mercury in Sagittarius folk tend to be forward thinkers with immense creativity. Nicki Minaj certainly possesses a foresight that allows us to intuitively know what creative ideas to dabble in and what her audience considers fire! However, this placement does encourage the recipient to think before they speak! Are you surprised that a spicy sign like Sagittarius in Mercury, the planet of intellect and communication, needs to mind their manners? Mercury in Sagittarius recipients tend to be blunt and straightforward communicators, but they need to keep in mind regarding heated or controversial exchanges, it's not what you say; it's how you say things!
Venus in Sagittarius:
And just like that, Nicki Minaj has a Sagittarius stellium. Oddly, it makes so much sense! When Venus is in the sign of Sagittarius, the person desires an adventurous partner who can be spontaneous. They tend to be super flirty and can be great explorative intimate partners. This placement can mean the individual is incredibly attractive and harbors a free spirit. This could mean that not only does Nicki Minaj have the potential to be a fun and exciting partner, but when you can capture her heart, she can bring your world to another dimension.
Mars in Capricorn
Nicki Minaj has her Mars placement exalted in the sign of Capricorn. This placement makes her a hard worker with the potential to be anal if she feels those around her are not pulling their weight! However, she would still be open to new ideas. Especially if those ideas can influence, inspire, and create a new standard. Nicki Minaj was born with the drive to succeed and feels her best when she achieves what she has set out to do. With her Sagittarius stellium and Mars in Capricorn, it is fair to say that when Nicki has her heart set on something, it is best to get out of her way!
Jupiter in Scorpio:
Jupiter in Scorpio is a placement that makes a celebrity creme de la creme! This placement makes someone deliciously charming and committed to their long-term goals, with the ability to exude and harness an emotional strength that anyone in the limelight needs to have. Nicki Minaj has quite a few placements that highlight her desire to succeed. With Jupiter in Scorpio, there could be other arenas outside of the music industry that may produce great results. For example, real estate, art (this can include fashion), and alcohol (gotta love Scorpio's shadow side) would be or have been great financial endeavors for Nicki Minaj.
Saturn in Scorpio:
Saturn is a planet of restrictions and limitations, but it can also be rewarding when we discipline ourselves. When Saturn is in Scorpio, this is a placement that is not afraid to go where other people wouldn't dare! This could mean that when it comes to business risks, things can work out in the person's favor or something they will eventually regret getting into! This reminds me of Nicki's decision to move forward with her controversial Grammy performance in 2012, resulting in her never receiving a Grammy award despite being one of Hip Hop's most celebrated, record-breaking, and long-standing artists. Sometimes, the rules are meant to be broken, but with this placement, there may need to be reflection when it is best not to.
Nicki Minaj's Legacy:
North Node in Cancer:
The North Node represents our "destiny" in our natal chart when her North Node in Cancer, Nicki Minaj, was born to be whoever she wanted. Nicki's real challenge posed by God or the universe will be her ability to let go of what she perceives to be successful. Life cannot be defined by wins and losses (South Node in Capricorn) but by how we embrace support from our loved ones and increase our self-love. In this lifetime, Nicki Minaj is meant to explore herself so that she still sees her value even if the fame never came and she never succeeded. These accomplishments are significant, but it is essential to know that they still do not define her. Some astrologers consider the North Node in Cancer a lucky placement, and I agree as long as it is understood that balance between our professional and personal lives is vital. People with this placement must find the key to nurturing themselves and others.
