I'm just saying, we want y'all to get it right. We love y'all. We want y'all to get it right. At least get it close to right. Obviously it's subjective - y'all don't gotta clap at everything - obviously it's subjective because it's music and it's opinion based. But, you know, some things...

Love Drought — Beyoncé (Lemonade)

request for @bitdemonic | first verse & pre-hook

♪ Ten times out of nine, I know you're lying — his scorpio neptune in her scorpio neptune first house, her scorpio moon in his third house, his mercury conjunct her neptune, his third house containing neptune

she’s so intuitively in-tune with the thoughts of her lover that she knows when he’s lying. and he seem like he would try to lie or conceal a lot. this may have worked on others, but not a woman he has moon-third house overlay with in scorpio. she know ‘cuz she herself probably sneaky too, whole time.

this is definitely because of scorpionic, lunar, and neptunian energy combined. this is some of the most intuitive energy concentrated in one area. she know what he thinking even before he know.

♪ And nine times outta ten, I know you're trying

♪ So I'm trying to be fair — her libra venus conjunct her pluto; her libra venus conjunct his libra moon

fairness is ruled by libra / venus. and natally, a libra venus could be someone who really values fairness. although, in compromising situations, it can be prove to be more difficult. in a way that’s kind of un-libran, pluto’s presence could instead manifest as the native being controlling, overbearing, jealous, insecure, etc. but she’s trying. she’s trying to withhold this part of herself that may encourage her to sabotage. and this is on his libra moon too.

♪ And you're trying to be there… and to care — his libra moon quincunx his taurus saturn, his saturn in her seventh house

the quincunx is a minor aspect where you need to compromise between energies that are at conflict with each other. the thing is that both his moon and saturn are in venutian signs, but the expression of the venutian signs are conflicted. then the quincunx planets are each other’s detriments and in mutual reception (exaltation). saturn exalts in libra, moon exalts in taurus. so it’s about balance.

his libra moon is probably telling him to keep his options open, or to be evasive, to maybe tell white lies. but that’s not what saturn is saying. when we’re reading for marriage, saturn has so much significance because saturn tells us how we commit. taurus is a present sign. taurus is consistent. taurus is predictable. even though his moon might be telling him to evade… his saturn is telling him to not to.

his saturn is in her seventh house — a promising indication for long-term marriage. in fact, it also can be an indication of the partnership maturing them significantly (especially maturing the seventh house person). as we know, jay-z met beyoncé when she was pretty young & she’s been with him since then. he’s been “there” a long time, but he’s never really been present. which is also another quality of saturn — it can show distance. thus… he’s a distant partner.

♪ And you're caught up in your permanent emotions — his libra moon conjunct his virgo pluto

this is a loose-orb aspect, but i felt it was worth mentioning. someone with moon aspecting pluto can be so absorbed in their own emotional world, it makes them sort of blind to the emotional complexities of people around them. especially because this conjunction with his moon is happening in her twelfth house, another house of distance or removal, as this is the house of saturn’s rejoicing.

♪ All the loving I've been giving goes unnoticed. It's just floating in the air, lookie there. Are you aware? — his scorpio neptune conjunct her scorpio moon, his scorpio neptune in her scorpio first house, her natal twelfth house libra venus

there’s a lot of elusive energy with the scorpio/neptune/moon/twelfth house combo here. beyoncé — as a scorpio ascendant + moon and twelfth house venus — is deeply impassioned. in fact, the twelfth house is a house of service and devotion. but similar to service workers and devotees, they don’t really get recognition for the energy they invest in something.

so her asking if he’s even aware of her makes so much sense… leads to her feeling neglected. people who are always wanted take for granted the fact that they are wanted. this is something twelfth house venuses may struggle with.

♪ You're my lifeline, are you tryna kill me? If I wasn't me, would you still feel me? — her virgo sun in his first house

the first line ("you're my lifeline, are you tryna kill me? if i wasn't me, would you still feel me?")... it may be a bit of a stretch. but i just made the connection because the first house is the house of your life, in the sense that it's the house that is read for your first moments of life (birth) and your introductions to all things in life you experience. it's the most "you" house. and the sun is your vitality or spirit. her sun in his first... her spirit is so deeply intertwined with him, it could quite literally feel like he is her lifeline.

for the second part, i feel like her sun being in his first house shows that she kind of illuminates him. she brings that solar energy to his presence. so i guess i feel like she's asking... if i wasn't someone who improved your image; someone who made you look better... would you still want me? because she's BEYONCÉ GISELLE KNOWLES... super successful and all. "everything next to me gets lit up too," (i'm that girl) is basically this overlay. but if beyoncé was just a regular old girl, would that be enough?

♪ Like on my worst day?

♪ Or am I not thirsty enough?

♪ I don't care about the lights or the beams, spend my life in the dark for the sake of you and me — her twelfth house libra venus

the twelfth house is such a removed house. and this is someone who need love to be thus removed from public spectacle. the twelfth house is also a house of darkness. so i think this line explains itself. like i already addressed, he might be concerned about how the public receives his relationship with her. but she personally doesn't value that. she just wants to be with him, and she's willing to give a lot in order to keep him with her. (twelfth house = loss)

♪ Only way to go is up
