A Deeper Look At Ella and Tyrique's Connection Through Astrology
Mismatched loyalties, power struggles, and emotional bondage
When I first saw Ella and Tyrique’s personal planets I wasn’t expecting them to last this long. But it’s week 5 and this connection doesn't seem to be going anywhere, so I want to take a deeper look at their astrology and pull up something I don’t usually do, which is their synastry chart.
I made an Instagram post on them here and wrote about them here too incase you missed it, but with Ella and Tyrique being such a big storyline this season, I thought they deserved their own Substack analysis.
To recap what they have in common are Aries and Taurus placements, with Tyrique being an Aries Sun and Taurus Venus, and Ella being a Taurus Sun and Aries Venus.
Aries and Taurus are two very different signs as Aries is typically the aggressor and will go after what it wants. This is a brave sign that wants to win, is not afraid of conflict, and will do what it needs to do to put itself first. It moves quickly and will move on quickly too.
Taurus is an extremely slow and grounded sign that’s predictable, stable, and loyal. Taurus loves the known, and hates to be caught off guard or not know where they stand, as being a fixed sign it doesn’t appreciate change or sudden movement. It’s also about ownership, as this sign wants to feel like something ‘belongs’ to them.
Tyrique’s Sun sign is Aries, so his ego is based around this fast moving, self preserving energy. It’s a core part of his personality to take risks and seek excitement, as Aries is prone to boredom.
But his Venus in Taurus suggests when it comes to his ideal relationship (what Venus represents), he could love someone highly dependable. Taurus and it’s sister sign Scorpio (more on them later) are on what I would call the ride-or-die axis, which simply means Taurus and Scorpio want all or nothing. This suggests although Tyrique could have a boisterous and fast-paced personality, when it comes to a romantic relationship, he’s looking for 100% undeniable and immovable loyalty, with a sense of ownership where he can proudly claim his woman as his.
Ella’s dynamic is the reverse, because her core personality is dependable, which could suggest why she was the one initially wanting more security from him. However Ella’s approach to relationships is Aries-like, so it’s interesting that when given the opportunity in Casa Amor, she was the one who took the risk on someone new (Aries is about newness and risk), while Taurus Venus Tyrique chose to stick to what he knew.
They both act out each other’s energies in reverse, and while this is not necessarily compatible, it is likely to create attraction between them as Venus represents what type of energy someone loves, adores, and appreciates, while the Sun is like the light people project out onto the world.
Tyrique will see Ella’s Taurus Sun, and Ella will see Tyrique’s Aries Sun, so they could be drawn to each other like moths to a flame because they each have what the other wants. The issue with this is while their Sun-Venus signs work well together, their Sun-Sun and Venus-Venus signs don’t work well, and this is why we could have this mismatch of Ella wanting loyalty where Tyrique couldn’t give it, and Tyrique wanting loyalty where Ella couldn’t give it.
