Ever wonder why you may be attracted to multiple genders? Well, the stars could provide some insight. As an astrologer who has reviewed many birth charts of bisexual clients, I’ve noticed some recurring patterns. If you identify as bi or are still questioning, your birth chart likely has some of these same aspects.
Before getting into potential astrological signs, an important note – sexuality and attraction are personal experiences that are complex. Astrology can only offer some perspective, not definitively say who you are attracted to. Your orientation is uniquely your own. With that said, let’s look at some commonalities I’ve seen in charts belonging to bisexual individuals.
I also recommend opening your birth chart (I personally use cafeastrology’s birth chart) before reading this article.
Major Astrological Indicators of Bisexuality
When looking at someone’s astrological chart for indicators of bisexuality or fluid sexuality, there are a few major aspects and placements to consider.
Planetary Placements
The placement of Venus, Mars, the Moon, and Neptune in a natal chart can point to bisexual or fluid tendencies. For example:
- Venus (planet of love and attraction) in a mutable sign like Gemini or Pisces can indicate an openness to loving partners of various genders.
- Mars (planet of intimacy and passion) in a Venus-ruled sign like Taurus or Libra may show a fusion of masculine and feminine energies in one’s sexuality and desires.
- The Moon (representing emotions and needs) in aspect to Uranus (planet of change and individuality) can reflect a need for freedom and openness in relationships that transcends traditional gender roles.
- Neptune (planet of spirituality and illusion) involved with the relationship axis or Venus and Mars can signify a transcendence of physical limitations in love and sexuality.
Aspects
Certain aspects between planets can also suggest fluidity in one’s romantic and sexual expression:
- Venus square or opposite Mars: This intense aspect blends the feminine and masculine in relationships, attraction, and sexuality. One might have an inclination to swing between extremes.
- Moon trine or sextile Uranus: This easy, flowing aspect indicates openness to new experiences in emotions and relationships. Non-traditional connections may feel natural and liberating.
- Venus conjunct Neptune: A dreamy and idealistic aspect that dissolves boundaries in relationships. Attraction and love tend to be unconditional, transcending physical form or gender.
- Mars-Venus conjunction: (for men in feminine signs, such as Pisces or Cancer, for women in masculine signs, such as Aries or Leo.)
- Moon in Aquarius in the 12th house: Having the moon in Aquarius in the twelfth house does not automatically mean someone is bisexual. However, I’ve noticed this astrological placement quite a bit with clients who identified that way but were not openly out. Aquarius is known for being very open-minded. The twelfth house represents a type of love that has no boundaries – it doesn’t matter about gender, only the heart and soul. This house also deals with secrets and feeling isolated. So, for someone with this configuration, exploring bisexuality or being gay may feel hidden or private.
Other Astrological Aspects That Can Point To Bisexuality
With that said, bisexuality can show up in a natal chart through aspects between planets that represent masculine and feminine energies. The main indicators are aspects between Venus (feminine) and Mars (masculine), and the Moon (emotions), and these planets.
Moon-Mars Aspects
When the emotional Moon forms a conjunction, sextile or trine with assertive Mars, there is an ease of expressing both soft, receptive qualities as well as direct, masculine ones. The natives are comfortable embracing both sides of themselves and in relationships.
Challenging aspects like squares can point to some tension between these energies that need to be integrated.
Moon-Venus Aspects
A flowing aspect between the Moon and Venus shows a natural ability to tune into the feminine and emotional side of relationships. At the same time, a square or opposition suggests some disconnect between expressing love, sensuality, and emotions. The native may struggle with intimacy in relationships or be prone to love-hate dynamics.
Venus-Mars Aspects
When Venus and Mars form a conjunction, trine or sextile, romantic and sexual attraction to both sexes is enhanced. There is an ability to express both masculine and feminine charms.
Challenging aspects like squares or oppositions can point to struggles integrating these energies in relationships or a tendency to project either the feminine or masculine onto partners.
Other Indicators
- An active, adventurous Sagittarius or Aquarius influence in the chart.
- Venus, Moon, or Mars aspects to Uranus.
- Neptune aspects to your Moon, Venus, or Mars signify heightened sensitivity, imagination, and openness in relationships.
- An 11th-house (or Aquarius) emphasis indicates openness to unconventional relationships.
- Ascendant (rising sign) is a feminine sign, and Moon is a masculine sign. For instance, ASC in Pisces and Moon in Aries.
- Gemini or Pisces on the 7th or 8th house cusp, suggesting openness or fluidity in committed partnerships and sexuality.
Just A Heads Up
Astrology isn’t an exact science. A birth chart is just one small part of the bigger picture. But for those interested in exploring cosmic connections, the positions mentioned can provide insights into sexuality and relationships.
Please note that this is based on my own experiences as an astrologer over the past 20 years. Having one or even multiple aspects mentioned doesn’t automatically mean someone is bisexual. Or that they may still be figuring things out.
