Ode to the QUEEN of Cancer SHADE: Wendy Williams

I am resuming where I left off in my Ode to the Queen of (insert zodiac sign) Shade series. The last time I wrote a blog post for this series was for the departed Gemini singer Prince (for blog post click here). This was back in June, now it's September and clearly it is not Cancer Season. Even so, better late than never :).

Just as it was no brainer for Aries (Mariah Carey) and Gemini (Prince); my choice was as clear as day. The infamous, the diva, and evergreen shady, Mrs. Wendy Williams. Cancers are not really known for shade, but shade doesn't discriminate. We see this in the form of Wendy Williams.

Let's get into her astrology. Before I begin I must mention that astrotheme doesn't have Wendy Williams rising sign. This means I won't be able to tell you her house placements or specific aspects. Her astrotheme profile is linked here

Scorpio Moon
I partially chose Wendy Williams because she has Scorpio moon. Scorpio moon isn't shady per se, but she is part of an important U.S. Media trend that has been going on for at least 10 years. This trend is the rise in celebrity gossip. Celebrity gossip has always been popular but with the rise of TMZ, Mediatakeout, Worldstarhiphop, and Social Media, celebrity gossip has taken on a new form. A new form that attracts the themes of the up & coming Pluto in Scorpio generation. The fascination with uncovering secrets and skeletons in closets, shared resources and the need for power (among other things). 
Even before she had a tv show, Wendy Williams was an infamous radio DJ & personality; known for her blunt, cut-throat, oftentimes mean, and SHADY radio interviews. Check out her radio interviews with Whitney Houston and Destiny's Child. Wendy Williams with her Scorpio moon has access to the emotional nature of this Pluto in Scorpio generation. She intuitively understands the dark and intense emotions of this up & coming  generation. Random but it is no accident that today's biggest celebrities/public figures have Scorpio moon (Beyonce, Lady Gaga, Mark Zuckerberg, Katy Perry, Miley Cyrus, etc.). They, like Wendy Williams are all tuned into the Scorpio Pluto generation's frequencies. 
Scorpio moon are the strong silent types, that are very resourceful, while being very secretive. Wendy has managed to forge a career where she is paid to gossip, spill secrets and speak bad of celebrities. But at the same time you hardly know any gossip or tea about her. Scorpio moon has influence and the ability to see through bullshit (while covering their own).

Venus conjunct Mars in Gemini

She called isn't the "Queen Of All Media," for nothing. She has the receipts to back it up with her Venus conjunct Mars in Gemini. This placements is where we see her excellent communication abilities and the gift of shade. Venus conjunct Mars in Gemini is someone who likes to talk, socialize, and learn. These placements lightens up and disarms Wendy Williams from her otherwise emotional & intense astrological make up; her Sun in Cancer trine Moon in Scorpio. 
Venus conjunct Mars in Gemini are energetic, fun loving people person whose is always up for a good time. This placement makes Wendy Williams seem a bit more like a chatty Cathy than a mean girl. How you doing?

Mercury in Leo
This regal placement ties everything I said up until this point into a nice neat bow. Her Mercury in Leo is sextiled (in a good relationship) with Venus and Mars. Mercury in Leo is the most refined out of the fire mercury signs. Fixed in nature Leo is a proud, confident, and creative speaker and communicator. Since Wendy Williams has Mercury in Leo she loves and thrives on the attention and Applause (Lady Gaga artpop reference) of her audience. Wendy Williams loves to entertain and there is a showy, flamboyant quality to Wendy Williams Leo mercury sign.

SHADE IS HER MIDDLE NAME.
Mercury squaring Moon & sextiling Mars/Venus makes Wendy easily a fierce, emotional, pleasing and combative orator. Confident with strong opinions, mercury in Leo (like many other Leo placements) can get away with being shady because Leo placements have a way to charm people, make people feel included and want to follow you.  She is quoted saying:

"I am a Beyonce fan. I’m gonna watch her upcoming documentary because fortunately one of the TVs in our kitchen has closed captioning so I’ll be able to understand what she says. You know Beyonce can’t talk. She sounds like she has a fifth grade education."

Others would not be able to get away with half the things she is saying. Watch an episode of her show to see what I mean. She's sitting on a throne. She has her audience wrapped around her finger; even when she says the most vile things about others. That is all Leo mercury right there.

Overall this is an Ode to the QUEEN of Cancer SHADE: Wendy Williams. If you want to see some of Wendy's best shade moments, check out Youtuber Killer Queen's video here & here.
