Pop icons Taylor Swift and Selena Gomez have been friends for several years. The two met back in 2008 when Gomez was in a relationship with Nick Jonas and Swift was dating his brother, Joe Jonas.

The ladies have been close ever since always publicly supporting one another, and were recently pictured together at Gomez’s 33rd birthday party.

Some fans have wondered just what makes their friendship so strong. Well, a psychic astrologer is sharing that answer.

Astrologer explains secret to Swift and Gomez’s longtime friendship

Inbaal Honigman is a celebrity psychic astrologer who has been reading Tarot since the ’90s. She has appeared in media for more than 20 years, giving her predictions for Big Brother’s Little Brother, Elle Magazine, and talkSPORT radio, to name a few. Now, she’s using Swift and Gomez’s birth charts to explain the secret to their friendship and why their bond is so strong.

Speaking on behalf of OLBG, Honigman told Showbiz Cheat Sheet: “The secret to Selena’s close friendship with Taylor is down to Taylor’s moon sign, which represents her hidden qualities. Selena is a Cancerian. This water sign is emotional, nurturing, and protective. People born under the sign of the crab are known for their intuition and sensitivity. Taylor is a Sagittarius. This fire sign is represented by the archer, known for its adventurous, freedom-loving, and optimistic nature. 

“But every person has a whole birth chart, not just a sun sign. Everyone has a moon and a rising sign, as well as a Mercury, Venus and Mars sign, and quite a few more. All those signs and planets interact and coexist in a unique way, which is why one Sagittarius is not like another — and Taylor is a very unusual Sagittarius.”

The astrologer added: “Taylor is more loving and ambitious than the everyday free-spirited Sagittarius owing to prominent Cancer and Capricorn placements in her chart. Selena is more extroverted than usual Cancerians as she has a lot of Leo in her chart, who love the limelight.

“Taylor’s Moon is in Cancer, which means her emotions and intuition are like those of Cancer Selena. Her nurturing Moon sign fits with Selena’s sun sign. Selena has a few main planets in the fiery sign of Leo, which is a fire sign, like Taylor’s sun sign of Sagittarius. Both girls are a mix of fire and water, which is an unusual combo. When gals like that meet each other, they recognise themselves in the other. They will not clash. They understand and accept each other.”

Psychic predicts what’s in store for the ladies in the coming year; great news for Gomez

As for what’s in store for the ladies throughout the rest of this year and into next, Honigman sees some changes.

For Swift, things will be a lot calmer and quieter since she won’t be seen out and about as much as she was the last couple of years with her Eras Tour. And for Gomez, she has something to look forward to in the year ahead.

According to Honigman, “The year ahead is more calm and indoorsy for Taylor because her ruling planet, Jupiter, will be in the peaceful sign of Cancer for the next 12 months. Interestingly, the same planetary placement means that Selena will have a successful year. Jupiter is the planet of wealth, so the next 12 months, when it is in Selena’s sign, will be lucrative for her.”
