What Olivia Rodrigo's Birth Chart Says About Her Relationship—and Her Next Era

Every good thing has turned into something I dreadAnd I'm playin' the victim so well in my headBut it's me who's been making the bed
—Olivia Rodrigo, 'Making the Bed'
Tell us you're a Pisces without telling us you're a Pisces, Olivia. Born under the sign of the tormented artist on Feb. 20, 2003, the 22-year-old punk-pop star fits neatly into her zodiac SKU. The breathy, doe-eyed sweetness that curdles into a full-throated scream-cry heard 'round the world. The self-reflective epiphanies matched by self-effacing angst. It's all iconic Pisces.
To understand Rodrigo's astrological essence, it might help to know that Pisces is represented by two fish swimming in opposite directions. One rises toward the heavens, angelic and spiritual. The other descends into the underworld, stormy and destructive.
As a sensitive water sign, which is also one of the four mutable signs, Pisces have serious emotional range. They are the most fluid of the water signs, shape-shifters who don't just meet the moment—they morph into the energy of whatever is in front of them. They're the ultimate empaths who can be tough as nails, too. Sure, they may be serving vintage-adorable looks, but their vibe is hardly naive. Just look at fellow Pisces Chappell Roan and Rihanna who celebrate their birthdays the same week as Olivia Rodrigo.
At times, a Pisces's duality can be as extreme as a Gemini's, if not more so, which explains Rodrigo's compatibility with her actor boyfriend, Louis Partridge. His sun sign is Gemini, which is also a mutable sign (but the air element).
There's never a dull (or quiet!) moment when these adaptable, expressive signs get together. If the Prada ambassador's high praise of his girlfriend's recent Glastonbury performance is any indication, the two will not be tiring of each other any time soon.
But Rodrigo's cosmic DNA goes far deeper than her sun sign. Beneath the dreamy Pisces exterior, her moon sign is in Libra, the sign of beauty, peace, and balance. Libra is another dual sign, symbolized by the scales that can tip to one side or the other.
In astrology, the moon sign represents your emotional nature. Libra definitely gives Pisces a run for its romantic money, and with these sun-moon placements, it's no wonder Rodrigo told People in 2021, 'I literally wrote breakup songs before I held a boy's hand.'
The Libra moon may also be what gives Rodrigo her keen sense of justice. Throughout her career, she has been a vocal advocate, speaking out about everything from war to reproductive rights. This July, she posted about the humanitarian crisis in Gaza. On an emotional Instagram Story, she shared, 'There is no child in Israel, Palestine, or anywhere in the world who deserves to suffer through what we're seeing these children have to endure. It is horrific and completely unacceptable. To give up on them is to give up on our shared humanity.'
When it comes to relationships, a Libra moon demands fairness. Luckily, Louis Partridge's emotionally astute Cancer moon makes him quite savvy. And how cute is this? Her sun sign is water, and her moon sign is air; his sun sign is air, and his moon sign is water. It just works.
With her boundlessly creative chart, it's no wonder Rodrigo learned to play both piano and guitar before she had her driver's license—at ages 9 and 12, respectively. Although when she was young, she was prepping for acting gigs like High School Musical: The Musical: The Series, she's since taken a hard left turn away from her Disney+ role. While she's only 22, she has accomplished so much—including winning a Grammy for Best New Artist in 2022.
We expect to see Rodrigo shed more of her ingénue skin in the months ahead. Saturn, the planet of adulting, is finishing up a three-year journey through Pisces that began on March 7, 2023. Could that shift mean the 'Vampire' singer will be ready to sink her teeth into more acting soon?
As she told ELLE back in 2021, one of her dreams is to take on a role in an action film. (With her Mars in thrill-seeking Sagittarius, she's definitely got the cosmic chops.) Simultaneously, she said she still counts her American Girl dolls as her most prized possessions, holding onto the collection for the children she hopes to have one day. It's all part of the paradox that makes her so fascinating.
Rodrigo's next era is less about making the bed and more about getting into the driver's seat. We can't wait to see what the next leg of her journey will be. If we're lucky, she'll bring us all along for the ride.
