Kourtney Kardashian & Travis Barker: The Astrology of Their Wedding

When the Kardashian clan’s eldest sibling and Blink-182’s drummer went public with their relationship, many people were shocked at the connection these two shared. However, if you are interested in astrology, you know that Kourtney Kardashian and Travis Barker’s zodiac signs could have something to do with it! Kourtney, who rose to fame through her family’s reality show of the same name Keeping up with the Kardashians—now titled That kardashians—is the last person society would expect to date tattooed rock star Travis Barker. However, when the couple decided last year to take their relationship to the next level, their fans’ hearts melted when the two found their soulmate in each other. and wWhen Kourtney and Travis finally said “yes” last Sunday, social media exploded.

While most people commented on the news of their unexpected marriage, astrologers took note of the fact that they were married during Mercury retrograde and on May 15, the day of the total lunar eclipse in Scorpio. Make no mistake – this is a big deal! However, many people in the astrological community began to shadow this couple’s wedding date and future. And as a professional astrologer, I’m here to dispel some of the myths you may have heard about the astrology of your marriage.

First of all, getting married during Mercury retrograde isn’t just doom and gloom. Is it the ideal time to sign a contract, especially one that will bind you to someone for life? no But you must move on with your life and not let the cosmos control you when the feeling hits. However, this does not mean that their marriage will end in divorce. When people start a relationship, sign a contract, or get married while a planet is in retrograde, it really just means there will be a lot of controversy, scrutiny, and bizarre energy surrounding the couple. And in case you haven’t noticed, there already was!

You probably didn’t see this relationship coming because on the surface they seem *so* different from each other. But in reality they are quite similar. This is one such indication that Mercury retrograde is at work here! The fact that people see this relationship in a way while the truth of their love is exactly the opposite of what everyone thinks is the Mercurial twist of getting married during a retrograde. And since the couple got engaged last year during Mercury retrograde in Libra, there seems to be a theme of impulsiveness in their relationship — let’s see what happens!

As they had their “first” wedding in Las Vegas in April 2022, this is their second chance to get married during another Mercury retrograde. I wouldn’t be surprised if they had a third wedding after Mercury turned direct in June, with all of her family and friends in attendance. Her first wedding was a top-secret ceremony, the second wedding was in Santa Barbara with her children, and the third will likely involve her entire group. This is very common in a retrograde mercury wedding as the ceremony and reception can happen more than once. Finally, Mercury is a planet that likes to do things multiple times and party until it gets it right!

Well, the fact that they got married during a total lunar eclipse does not represent the demise or doom of their marriage either. A lunar eclipse is a very energetically elevated full moon. A full moon allows us to understand and see our emotions from a different perspective. Repressed feelings can surface and make your emotions known.

Like most people during an eclipse, this star-studded couple probably made an impulsive decision to get married because they were feeling genuine over the weekend. In fact, this lunar eclipse was viewing Travis Barker’s Sun in Scorpio and his North Node of Destiny, which also happens to be in Scorpio. Given all of this, it’s clear that this is a marriage that has always been destined. It represents the beginning of the dream life that Travis has always wanted. As for Kourtney Kardashian, her Uranus – planet of rebellion – also formed an alignment with the lunar eclipse in Scorpio, which pushed her to throw herself headfirst into this marriage. Dreamy and romantic Neptune also formed an aspect with her ascendant, urging her to surrender to love.

I sincerely disagree with all the celestial naysayers on the internet who believe that the astrology of their wedding will affect their future. A look at the aspects that have played a role in both of their natal charts can help anyone realize that their May 15 wedding was destined to happen – even with Mercury retrograde and a lunar eclipse stirring the pot. TBH, they are incredibly astrologically compatible! For example, Kourtney’s Sun in Aries conjuncts Travis’ Moon in Aries, signifying a long, happy, and fulfilling marriage. I personally cheer for them and I am absolutely convinced that they will have a lasting partnership.
