Kris Jenner: Momager of the World
An astrological analysis of kris jenner’s birth chart
“I have learned to be ready for anything - and be there for my kids. That’s what life’s all about.”
Kris Jenner is one of the most well-known women of the digital age after making her and her family a household name with producing the wildly popular reality TV show, Keeping Up With the Kardashians & The Kardashians. Jenner is the mother of all the Kardashian kids and Jenner girls; and before the shows, was a pretty well-off socialite married to Robert Kardashian, one of the infamous defense lawyers for O.J. Simpson in his murder investigation against Nicole Brown Smith, one of Kris Jenner’s closest friends.
Kristen Mary Houghton, later known as Kris Jenner, was born on November 5, 1955 to Robert Houghton and Mary Jo Campbell in San Diego, CA. When Kris Jenner was about 7 years old, her parents decided to get a divorce. In psychology, a divorce between parents is known to be a huge life stressor, and being that Kris was only just making her way out of the most crucial developmental portion of her life, this definitely would be a pivotal point in her developing personalty, thus enacting major points in her natal chart.
Let's start by looking at Kris Jenner's Venus placement, which would represent her attachment style and things she values in her relationships. She has Venus in Scorpio, the sign of intensity and obsession, in her 3rd house, the house that represents the areas of life surrounding our basic thought patterns, environmental audience, and ways of communicating. Knowing this, we can start to see some of the ways in which her parents' relationship would impact her with the relationships she would form
later in life. As seen in Keeping Up With the Kardashians, or Keeping Up for short, she has a very internal need to keep her family, and all of her extended family, together no matter what it costs. Scorpio venus natives are known to be obsessive and intense within their relationships, so this behavioral trait of Kris' can be easily linked to her Venus placement. Natives of this placement often pick up this pattern in their life due to them experiencing traumatic incidents within their relationship with their parents; in this case, Kris experiencing the end of her parents' relationships would've been a major catalyst for her need to keep her relationships together, no matter the cost.

A little known fact about Kris is that a year after her parents' divorce, she developed a bone tumor that made her fearful of needing to get her leg amputated in the case that it was cancerous. In her natal chart, Kris' Saturn, the planet that rules over obstacles and challenges, is at the 22nd degree, a degree known to increase danger and risk, especially with things that are ruled by Saturn, such as bones and tumors. She was eventually told that it was not cancerous, however, and after undergoing surgery, she was given a clean bill of health.
After graduating high school, Kris was way more interested in becoming a wife and mother than going to college. This seems like a very probable thing for her to choose while looking at her birth chart because Kris has a Cancer Moon in her 10th house. In astrology, each of the planets have dominion over one or two of the signs; and the planet that rules over Cancer is the moon - so Kris Jenner has her moon in domicile (which means "at home") in Cancer. Natives that have this placement have the primal need to nurture, protect, and build close emotional bonds with others, which also helps them find the emotional security they are seeking in life. With Kris' moon in the 10th house, the house ruling the area of life responsible for our status in society and public reputation, we can see that despite most of her peers going off to college, Kris instead decided to go the more "traditional" route and started a family of her own - which would become how she gains the most notoriety and status on the world scale.
This aspect of Kris Jenner's life is also highlighted by all of the different placements in her birth chart that are located at the 28th degree, which in the Degree Theory by Nikola Stojanovic, says that they are at a cancer degree - which is associated with family and the desire to nurture and protect others. All of the different placements in her chart that are found at the 28th degree in her birth chart are her Ascendant, Jupiter, Neptune, Pluto, and Lilith, and they all impact her life in different ways. In astrology, the Ascendant is the sort of lens in which we perceive the world, so Kris' Ascendant being at the 28th degree of Virgo shows that she is resilient in how she moves through the world and grows the most through feeling emotionally secure within herself and her surroundings. Her Jupiter, the planet representative of our life philosophy, being at the 28th degree of Leo can be visible in Keeping Up with how she feels that her values and beliefs should be held to the highest esteem, especially within her family; and her Neptune, the planet of false realities and enchantment, being at the 28th degree of Libra shows how her family created illusions around the concepts of beauty, and how society sees modern women. With her Pluto, the planet of extreme power and transformation, being at the 28th degree of Leo we can see how it's easy for her to dominate over her family and has had experiences of how extreme a family could potentially act with each other through her parents' divorce. Lastly, Kris Jenner's birth chart features Lilith, an asteroid representative of a person's most primitive impulses and behaviors in the rawest form, at the 28th degree of Scorpio. This placement is known to be a quite chaotic one, and we can see how this is true with Kris' secret affair that ended up tearing apart her family. The Lilith in Kris Jenner's birth chart is also a potent one because it is conjunct, an aspect that means the energies of two planets or points in a chart are fused together, with her Scorpio Venus. Together all of these different placements at the 28th degree in her chart help raise the importance of the theme of family in the life of Kris Jenner.
Even though we might just think about Kris Jenner as the mother of the world's biggest entertainment dynasty, through her astrological chart we can see that there is much more to her personality and life than meets the eye. She has been through hell and back - watching her parents' divorce and nearly losing her limbs due to a tumor - and has still ended up on top of the global stage.
