It was 2020: the height of the global pandemic.
And who was sizzling up on the airwaves and helping the world keep up the good spirits to power through? There was one pop princess who absolutely dominated the landscape, with hit after hit soaring up the charts: Dua Lipa. Rising to the top of pop music like a thunderstorm, Lipa, 26, has found herself collaborating with some of the modern day “greats,” including Madonna, Miley Cyrus and more, establishing herself as one of the most in-demand pop stars of the 2020s. With high-energy concerts and performances, as well sexy fashion and Grammys red carpets and awards, Lipa’s star is continuously growing brighter. With a new foray into acting in the upcoming film “Argylle” alongside Henry Cavill, Lipa is ready to expand her empire even more.
So what made her such a cosmic masterpiece? Will she continue to soar or end up being a nostalgic favorite from years past? Join me as we dive into her stars because I’m a pop culture astrologer and I can see it all.
Dua Lipa’s birth chart shows she was born to be a masterpiece
Dua Lipa was born on August 22, 1995. This makes her a vibrant Leo Sun with a sensitive Cancer Moon. Her birth time has not been confirmed with me directly (get at me!), so we will focus on what we do, in fact, know. When looking at elemental energy infused within her birth chart, we can see that she is actually a very strong mix and balance of all of them—which means that she can fluidly move between different aspects of life, easily relating to a multitude of people and experiences.
When it comes to astrological aspects in her birth chart, we can see several themes rising up. First and foremost, Lipa is an artist—and a true embodiment of art in all capacities. This is because her Sun, ruling her life force, is exactly united with Venus, the planet of beauty. She radiates light and charm on all levels—even down to a soul level. She is naturally gracious and refined and attracts luxury. She has an incredibly soft and warm-hearted spirit and this is what makes her so popular on a social level.
Her Saturn, the planet of ambition, then gorgeously links with Neptune, the planet of visionary creativity, which shows that she was destined for grand success in the music industry. Her Uranus, the planet of the future, also dances with Pluto, which grants her the ability to tap into the collective vibrations of her generation and incarnate it as creative power.
Next, we see that she has a strong emphasis on understanding the depth of her emotions and channeling them into her life, work and relationships. Her Moon, tied to her inner world and linked to her soul, dances with many planets. Her Moon links to Mercury, which helps her to typically remain balanced and logical, understanding how to communicate directly and articulately. Her Moon does clash with Mars, which can bring her a fiercely independent streak once she has made up her mind. Her Moon then embraces Saturn, helping her to find great levels of focus and concentration.
While we do see that she has a fiercely ambitious side to her personality, deeply focused on owning her ego, she attempts to present this in a more logical, independent and inventive way rather that just explicitly being led by her desires or passions. But don’t get me wrong, if she’s feeling fired up, she’ll seize what she’s after without looking back!
What are predictions for Dua Lipa?
So what lies ahead for Ms. Lipa? Let’s take a peek behind the veil. First, to be upfront, Lipa is going through one of the most important turning points in her life. This very significantly begins in 2022 because Saturn, the planet of life lessons and karma, is across the sky from her Sun. This is known as a Saturn opposition, which can be quite draining and at times test one physically, mentally and spiritually.
On one hand, any weak relationships—personally or professionally—are being cleared out for her, but any ones that she locks in now will likely grow for years to come—perhaps even forever. While the first half of 2023 will still hold onto this energy, she’ll experience a very short reprieve because beginning in 2024, she will start to feel her Saturn return.
This is a period once again where she faces a reckoning—we all do toward the end of our 20s. She will release any baggage holding her down, set down new roots and begin to create newfound patterns to echo for the coming three decades ahead. Luckily, on a personal note, her relationships should begin to sparkle even brighter in 2023, with plenty of opportunities for professional growth, as well. May she continue levitating ever on. You heard it here first.
