Kesha's zodiac sign and birth chart: Pisces Sun, Pisces Moon, Sagittarius rising

What is Kesha's zodiac sign?

Kesha's Sun sign is Pisces. The singer and songwriter was born on March 1, 1987, in Van Nuys, Los Angeles, California, in the middle stretch of Pisces season.

Pisces is the twelfth sign of the zodiac, a mutable water sign ruled by Jupiter in the traditional system and by Neptune in the modern one. Astrologers associate it with imagination, compassion and intuition, and with a talent for absorbing the mood of a room. It is the sign most often linked with music, dreams and the spiritual side of life. Its traditional difficulty is boundaries: knowing where other people's feelings end and your own begin.

Moon sign

On the recorded birth time, her Moon is in Pisces too. This one needs a short explanation, because the Moon changed sign at 4:37 am on her birth date. The time on record is 12:34 am, about four hours earlier, when the Moon had not yet left Pisces. A birth later that morning would have put the Moon in Aries, the next sign along.

So the Pisces Moon depends on the birth time, and in this case the time is well documented (more on that under the rising sign). The Moon describes emotional needs, and astrologers read a Pisces Moon as tender, impressionable and deeply empathetic, with a need for quiet time to recharge. Mercury was in Pisces that day as well, which makes three Pisces placements on the recorded time.

Venus and Mars

Venus and Mars are slow enough to hold one sign for the whole birth day, and here they supply the earth that the rest of the chart lacks.

Her Venus is in Capricorn. Venus describes the style of love and pleasure. In Capricorn it is associated with loyalty, patience and affection that proves itself over time, with little interest in flings or empty gestures.

Her Mars is in Taurus. Mars is the planet of drive, and astrologers read it in Taurus as slow to get going and very hard to stop: steady effort, stamina and a stubborn refusal to be rushed.

Water for feeling, earth for follow-through. That is the balance an astrologer would point to in these placements.

Rising sign

Her rising sign is Sagittarius, on the recorded birth time. Astro-Databank, the archive astrologers use for birth data, lists 12:34 am with a Rodden rating of AA. That is the highest grade, given when the time comes from a birth certificate or birth record.

The usual caveat still applies. The Ascendant changes sign roughly every two hours, so the rising sign is exactly as reliable as the time, and an AA time is as reliable as birth data gets.

The rising sign describes how a person comes across on first meeting. Sagittarius rising is read as open, candid and adventurous, with a big laugh and an appetite for the next horizon. It is ruled by Jupiter, the same planet that traditionally rules Pisces.

Is Kesha into astrology?

Yes, and she has been specific about it. She told W Magazine in 2018 that she is a Pisces, that she believes in astrology and that she checks her horoscope almost daily.

That is about as clear as public statements on the subject get. It covers her Sun sign and her horoscope habit. It does not tell us how she reads the rest of her chart, so we leave that alone.
