Kind of a niche couple unless you were a teenager in the early-to-mid aughts and/or are into Bollywood, but I figure why not dedicate a little thread to this fascinating couple - Bollywood mega-icon Priyanka Chopra (36) and former teen sensation Nick Jonas (26).
They got engaged after dating for two months after the summer of weird celebrity engagements (Justin Beiber/Hailey Baldwin and Ariana Grande/Pete Davidson also come to mind). This is the year in which both Mars and Venus will spend some time retrograde, also the first time in nearly 80 years that Uranus has entered Taurus. So strangeness is to be expected.
On paper, Nick Jonas is a Virgo Sun and Taurus Moon.
Priyanka Chopra is a Cancer Sun and Gemini Moon
Already not a bad combination. But wow, their synastry is actually utterly fascinating to parse through.
Every astrologer (something I VERY LOOSELY refer to myself here as) is going to find something specific they like/dislike about this synastry, but for me personally.. I love Nick's nodal axis (Sagittarius/Gemini) being lit up by Priyanka's Venus and Neptune. She is positively his dream girl in such a way that was probably like an electrocution to his senses. If that isn't impressive enough, let's go ahead and throw in a really tight Juno-Juno opposition to this axis as well. It's no wonder why marriage was already on the table for both of them in spite of their vast differences:
Age: 10 years apart
Non-traditional: Girl older than guy
Religion: Christian vs. Hindu
Culture: American born vs. Indian born
Funnily enough a few years back Nick Jonas dated Ms. Universe 2012 Olivia Culpo. Well, now he's set to marry Ms. Universe 2000. Could his Venus in Libra (tightly trine Saturn) be any more obvious? If you would have told my teenager self that Nick Jonas was going to marry a desi girl back in 2007 you could have knocked me over with a feather Anyway..
Actually let's stay on topic re: Nick's Venus in Libra. Here we have Priyanka just FLANKING that Venus with her Pallas (innate understanding of his tastes), Eros (erotic and soulful connection), Saturn (staying power, plus age, not to mention they now have Saturn-trine-Saturn in synastry so their responsibilities are aligned), Pluto (he's totally in thrall to her and she has the upperhand), and Mars (her drives and passions as a whole). Obviously Nick never stood a chance considering that his Venus is also the ruler of his Moon (his emotional life).
They have a tight Sun sextile Sun aspect, so relations are very easy and natural between the two. Their Moons are also semi-sextile, which is always a nice "best friends even though it doesn't seem like it at first bat" touch to the luminaries.
Also, her nodal axis is lit up by him, though not as much as she lights up his. Consider that his Neptune is on her south node, so she idealizes him just as much as he idealizes her. Also his Uranus is right there on her south node, so Nick has a positively and delightfully rebellious effect on her - consider how revolutionary this is from someone that comes from Indian culture, which is notoriously polished and strict. With his Uranus opposite her Mercury, he probably also challenges her intellectually, and she can never quite put her finger on what he's going to do next. This could have a thrilling effect though she doesn't seem very Uranian as per her chart.
But transiting Uranus is opposite her natal Jupiter right now.. so her values are rapidly changing, so it's only fitting she would find herself with a partner who brings elements of this transit into her relationship through their synastry.
Now.. if you're not convinced of this partnership yet, may I offer you their composite chart?
You have to admit that's PRETTY damn impressive. I'm unsure how accurate their birth times are so let's ignore the angles for a sec.
So everyone knows about the classic love stellium in a composite.. supposedly it lends to the most soulful and natural relating possible. Well they have it: Mercury, Venus and the Sun conjunct in Leo. BUT they also have Mars right there. AND this stellium is massively supported by Uranus and Saturn. That screams lasting power if you ask me.
Also Juno is tightly conjunct Eros/Psych with a perfect supporting trine from Moon in Taurus. This would also signify that this partnership deeply effects Nick, since this is his natal Moon. Also the composite Jupiter is right on his natal Venus. So the dude must really be in Heaven right about now.
Pluto tightly trine Chiron would indicate that this is a transformative and healing partnership for both Nick and Priyanka. Neptune opposite Chiron certainly adds a loving touch to the combination, it softens the blows that Pluto can jarringly dole out sometimes. Not to mention this Chiron-Neptune opposition is square the Nodes.. so they were destined to meet, fall in love, and to play out husband/wife in whatever way they see necessary. This is an absolutely fated union.
Thoughts, if any of you have them?
