How Jennifer Lopez and Ben Affleck’s star signs brought them together… before driving them apart in shock divorce

How Jennifer Lopez and Ben Affleck’s star signs brought them together… before driving them apart in shock divorce

Jennifer Lopez and Ben Affleck had a lot in common when it came to their astrological birth charts – sharing the same Sun, Moon, and Mercury signs – but it all backfired severely as the couple are reportedly no longer speaking amid their divorce.

The bride-obsessed 55-year-old and her 52-year-old estranged fourth husband are both confident, passionate, and all-or-nothing Leos – known as ‘The Pride’ – who share ‘a battle of wills’ and a ‘need to shine’ which ‘incites glaring problems.’

‘At best, they merge into one supernova; otherwise, they might fall in to an emotional black hole. Regardless, they’re a lusty couple,’ Starsky + Cox wrote in their 2004 guide Sextrology.

In their 2009 compatibility book Cosmic Coupling, the astrologers further expand on the Leo-Leo connection: ‘The trick for her is to not overwhelm him but to cultivate a more demure style, just as he must become more vividly demonstrative…

‘Often this relationship ends because she wants Leo man to approach life as she does. He won’t. And only later, when the bond is irreparable, she may kick herself for not accepting him for what he is. Indeed, the love she feels for her fellow Leo is something she’s unlikely to experience twice in a lifetime.’

Jen and Ben are also Leos when it comes to their Mercury sign, or communication style, which might have them finishing each other’s sentences and pushing each other’s buttons in all the right (and wrong) ways.

Lopez and Affleck share the same emotionally deep Moon sign – Scorpio – which is how they see themselves, and hints at keeping secrets and suspicions on top of having an intensely possessive, all-or-nothing bond.

The two-time Grammy nominee’s North Node of Pisces conjuncts the two-time Oscar-winning filmmaker’s Midheaven in Pisces, which signals a karmically-significant alignment.

‘Their connection wasn’t just about personal or romantic involvement but about how they influenced each other’s faith and the legacy they’re leaving behind,’ astrologer Valerie Mesa wrote in People on Wednesday.

‘It potentially brings both individuals closer to their destinies. However, the intensity of his aspect could have also added a considerable amount of pressure to their relationship as they navigated the complexities of public expectations and their ambitions.’

She added via Instastory: ‘These two will continue dancing the tango forever, in all realms. Karmic connections are funny like that.’

On Tuesday, Jennifer not only filed for divorce from Ben in LA County Superior Court during chaotic Mercury in retrograde, it was also on the heels of the cathartic full moon in Aquarius.

‘The full moon phase symbolizes completion, culmination and full-circle moments,’ Mesa continued.

Did Jane Fonda predict the end of JLo and Ben Affleck?

‘Additionally, the sign of Aquarius — known for its independence and desire for freedom — rules Leo’s seventh house of marriage and commitment, which highlights the “ending” and “conclusion” of their relationship.’

Tuesday also marked what would’ve been the couple formerly known as Bennifer’s second anniversary of their wedding at his $8.9M, 87-acre property on the Hampton Island Preserve in Georgia.

Lopez listed the date of separation as April 26 and there’s no prenuptial agreement so everything she and Affleck earned during the marriage is community property – according to TMZ.

The Atlas producer-star and the Air director-actor – who are selling their 12-bedroom Beverly Hills mansion for $68M – originally met on the LA set of Martin Brest’s box office bomb Gigli in 2001, but they abruptly split three days before their wedding in 2004.

Jennifer and Ben surreptitiously started texting each other again in February 2021, two months before she ended her engagement to Minnesota Timberwolves co-owner Alex Rodriguez (another Leo man).
