In the fevered and puffed up world of celebrity super-fandom popularity can rest on a knife edge. Hero to zero or worse. The glitter appears to be pealing off actress Blake Lively which will encompass her ever present husband Ryan Reynolds as well. One commentator asked “Has Blake Lively finally girlbossed too close to the sun?” Her present movie about domestic violence has been tarnished as it gives spousal abuse the Barbie treatment and old video interviews with her snippy ‘mean girl’ behavior have added to the backlash.
They are in an unusually lasting marriage by Hollywood standards. Both are child stars, Reynolds, was named People’s Sexiest Man Alive in 2010. Lively was best known as Serena van der Woodsen in the television teen drama Gossip Girl and named “one of 2012’s Most Beautiful at Every Age”.
Their film careers are stop-start but they shine on social media, mix with other A-listers like Taylor Swift and have healthy business interests. Reynolds, worth $350 million has a commercial interest in aviation, Gin, the Alpine F1 Team and Wrexham AFC. Lively has her Betty Buzz and Betty Booze drinks business and a haircare line.
None of which is of much interest barring their astrology.
She was born 25 August 1987 5.07 am Tarzana, California and has a Virgo stellium in her 1st house with a Mars, Sun, Venus, Mercury, Moon in Virgo below a Leo Ascendant. She will be full-on as a personality with all of Virgo’s snippiness when it comes to communicating her critical opinions. She has Pluto on her IC opposition Jupiter in late Aries giving her an overdose of confidence. Shy and retiring she is not.
Her performing 5th house has Saturn in Sagittarius on the cusp in a can-be-autocratic conjunction to Uranus as well as creative Neptune. Exceptionally Mutable, highly strung, excitable, competitive.
Ryan Reynolds’s chart is notable for different reasons. Born 23 October 1976 in Montreal, Canada, he has a super-charged stellium in Scorpio – Sun, North Node, Moon, Uranus and Mars – all of which hover around her IC with his Uranus Mars into her 4th. His steady Fixed temperament will be a balance for her windmill-in-a-storm approach. But it must make for a high-octane mood domestically though they have been married since 2012. His Saturn in Leo is also conjunct her Ascendant and his Jupiter sits in her 10th – he’ll both damp down her more reckless streak at least in public in an effort to give her image gravitas – and together they are a successful match.
But oof – all that Virgo matched with all that Scorpio. Quite a bubbling cauldron.
She’s on a roll at the moment with tr Jupiter moving through her 10th house into 2025; and tr Pluto in a confident square to her Jupiter as well till late this year. But she looks stuck in mid to late 20025 with Solar Arc Pluto conjunct her Saturn and won’t appreciate tr Uranus moving into Gemini since it squares her Mars Sun from August 2025 onwards and then her Venus and Mercury in the year after that – rolling jolts, jars and upheavals.
Their relationship chart has a composite, argumentative Sun Mars, with the composite Moon either conjunct Mars or, if a late birth for him, then conjunct Saturn Venus. Tr Neptune Saturn moving into Aries will oppose their composite Sun from mid 2025 onwards and the other planets in later years – so they may struggle a touch as both go through major changes – tr Pluto is squaring his Scorpio stellium at the moment and on for years ahead which will be challenging.
According to Wikipedia, Ryan Reynolds’ birthplace is given as Vancouver, British Columbia and not Montreal, Quebec. Vancouver is three times zones to the West and about four degrees further North than Montreal. FYI.

I’m not convinced predicting the fate of a couples marriage without their asking for advice, isnt a form of grey magik, a kind of nocebo.
Interesting take. I’ve been following this news this past day and was wondering about their Astro. Don’t think I have anything else to add but noticed that Blake’s solar arc stellium in Virgo is currently in Libra and will also be opposed by Saturn and Neptune in the coming years, similar to their composite chart. And Ryan will be experiencing major Pluto transits square his Scorpio stellium. I’d say they’ll stick together for the foreseeable , but it might be a rougher few years ahead
