Jennifer
Jennifer Lopez & Ben Affleck Marriage Chart

The chart to the right is their natal marriage chart and the chart to the left is the current transits taking place (May 27, 2024).


A few things stand out:


Marriage Ascendant is Pisces 27 degrees in gandanta which is in troubled waters aka karmic knot territory. Its more auspicious to have a Marriage Ascendant in fixed signs for the purpose of establishing stability in the marriage.


Jupiter sits with the Ascendant which makes this marriage a great teacher for both Ben and Jennifer. Neptune is Rx is also in the 1st house conjunct Jupiter and Ascendant. Although Neptune is a spiritual planet and like Jupiter can provide blessings, when retrograde in the 1st house it will show clouded judgement. Overtime what Jennifer and Ben thought was an ideal match, begins to fade away. Neptune Rx removes the rose-colored glasses and reveals who they truly are as a married couple and conjunct Jupiter, it does this in a big way. Such as in front of the masses via media. They come to realize that what they ideally thought was a perfect match, was all just an illusion and perhaps only for entertainment. Hence the fantasty, love story movie "This Is Me...Now" produced by Jennifer Lopez. During the production of the movie, she felt she was on cloud nine with her relationship to Ben Affleck only to find that they are now seperated. Its very Neptune Rx like. However, her movie did inspire others about love and marriage and although their's is not working out, it doesnt mean that love and marriage is worth giving up on. But the lesson is to have clear cognizance when moving forward with a relationship.


Venus in a marriage chart represents the wife or love in the marraige. Venus is situated in the 4th house which of course indicates a beautiful home, but when looking more deeply in the sign of Gemini, it tells a different story about their love life. Venus in Gemini generally gives a lot of excitement in the beginning, but generally gets bored because it needs to constantly experience movement and change. Going deeper, Venus is in the last pada of Mrigasira and is challenging because jealousy and manipulation begin to develop if love is not being expressed in a moving and newly inspiring way. If you are paying attention, then you would have caught that Venus and Pluto are quincunx (8/6 relationship) and this indicates control issues, obsessions, subconscious fears playing out, including a strong need for love, attention and intimacy. Jennifer has been portrayed as such in the media. I strongly advise Jennifer to live with her future long term partner and avoid actually getting engaged and married again as she stands a better chance living happily ever after with her next partner.


Jupiter in a marriage chart represents the husband and is the karaka for marriage is in its own sign, and well placed giving a very spiritual learning experience which is fantastic. However, Jupiter is a receiving a full aspect from Saturn Rx, which is like reneging on the marriage and Jupiter is conjunct Neptune Rx, which indicates that the husband is not who he appears to be or did not have good judgment when getting married. A lot has happened in the 20yrs that they were not a couple and married to other people. People evolve, develop and have different expectations about marriage and relationships as they get older. When looking at Ben Afflecks natal chart, I was able to see that at least his 3rd marriage will actually stand a chance in comparison to the first two.


Lets look at the 7th (marriage) house Lord Mercury. Mercury is combust with the Sun (6th house lord of conflict) in the 5th house. Yes, this indicates a love marriage. However, Sun burns Mercury when within a 5-6 degree orb. This is very hard on their love life and marriage and this is because it puts their marriage in the spotlight. Although Jennifer loves the spotlight, Ben on the other hand does not and prefers to live a life of privacy. Interestingly, this also effects their relationship with respect to their children and indicates that one of their children could undergo issues around their identity. Ben Affleck's daughter Seraphina aka Fin has come out as transgender. Being that Jennifer and Ben are now separated this could indicate that Fin's existence was temporary and may be returning to Seraphina soon.


Here's when the real trouble came...

On March 6, 2024, Saturn is within a three degree orb of their natal Moon in their marriage chart. On March 31, 2024, transit Saturn and natal Moon are exactly conjunct. This is a day after they were reported to last hold hands in public together! Therefore, the events that took place between March 6th and March 31st were rough and naturally so. Saturn can depress the Moon. They married with Saturn in the 12th house from the Moon. Saturn rules the 11th house of friends/dreams/wishes/money from career and 12th house rules confinement, loss, expenses. Moon rules the 5th house of love, romance, children and self expression and is located in the 12th house of their marriage chart. This automatically created a Sade Sati transit for them immediately after marriage. Their marriage is currently in the 2nd and most challenging phase of Sade Sati. Now, hear me out, Sade Sati can be a challenging time, however, with work, honesty and dedication its an opportunity to build a solid relationship moving forward after Saturn reveals the truth about their relationship dynamic. Unfortunately for them, its not the only malefic transit taking place in their marriage chart. So its double the challenge for them. As a result of these placements, there is a sense of loss of love and expression, lots of expenses, depression and disappointments, and lots of self reflection about their decision to get married in the first place. Keep in mind that if you watched Jennifer's documentary, she had to pull money out of her own pocket to make her film "This Is Me...Now." Financial setbacks can take a real toll on marriage and relationship dynamics resulting in divorce. She also had friends and fellow colleagues who refused to work on her film and thats challenging in Hollywood.


In November 2023, Rahu and Ketu entered the signs Pisces and Virgo. This is the 1st and 7th house axis of their marriage chart. This transit goes into effect immediately after Thanksgiving of 2023. Rahu transit in the 1st house enhances desires for personal development in the material plane, including a strong desires to climb the social ladder and be more socially influential. On the negative side it can make someone a cheater, rule breaker or someone who blows things out of proportion. Ketu in the 7th house brings challenges, hardships, distance, dissappointments, lack of connection and yet a need for spiritual connection in the area of relationships/marriage.


Many couples today break-up during Sade Sati or Rahu/Ketu transits in the 1st and 7th houses axis from Ascendant and/or Moon because they are ill-equipped to handle these challenging transits due to lack of knowledge and awareness which bring enlightment. These transits although challenging can help deepen relationships with the right tools and mindset.


After reviewing their marriage chart, I strongly suggest that they both consult a professional Vedic Astrologer when selecting a marriage date in the future. This marriage chart didnt even stand a chance because they didnt have the opportunity to build their foundation and marriage because Saturn and the nodes Rahu and Ketu came in so soon based on their planetary placements. It robbed them of their honeymoon years. This is the end to the Jen and Ben relationship saga. We all live and learn. Good luck to them as they move forward.
