I have a nasty habit, and I’m not talking about bed rotting. When it comes to unattainable celebrities, I totally have a thing for looking up their natal chart and seeing if they’d be compatible with me. Call me a stereotypical Pisces, but I can’t help it β I look to the stars for almost everything from which sex toy I should buy next, to my compatibility with a person I’ll probably never meet. My most recent astrological obsession? None other than TikTok’s biggest comedian, Matt Rife.
If you’re thinking to yourself, “Who TF is Matt Rife?” then I’ll assume you haven’t been on TikTok within the past year. Rife is a comedian that rose to fame on the social media platform, after getting his start on the MTV comedy-improv show, Wild ‘N Out. Since then, Rife has taken over the FYPs of millions (including mine) due to his stellar comedy and crowd work… and it doesn’t hurt that he’s pretty good looking too. (Talk about being more than a pretty face!)
Since Rife has been blowing up β so much so that his world tour pre-sale basically broke Ticketmaster (Eras Tour flashbacks, anyone?) β I’ve spent some time researching the star’s birth chart. If you’re anything like me and judge your (hypothetical) suitors based on their natal chart, don’t worry, I’m here for you. Major spoiler alert, though: His chart is pretty frickin’ hot.
Matt Rife is a Virgo.
If you’re into Earth sign men, this is your sign to freak TF out. Born on September 10, 1995, in Columbus, Ohio, Rife is a through-and-through Virgo. This honestly checks out: Virgo men are known for being hard-working and confident, as well as having a pretty dry sense of humor β so, comedy is certainly a fitting career path. Virgo men are also very sensual, which can explain why Rife’s comedy routines tend to lean on the spicier side. (Did anyone else see those edits of him taking off a belt with one hand? Just me?)
However, Virgo men are super observant and analytical, almost to the point of cynicism. If you’re looking to date Rife (go shoot your shot), be aware that his dark sense of humor could cross the line from playful to hurtful, without him even realizing it.
His Moon is in Aries, though.
Now, now, before y’all freak out, this isn’t as freaky of a placement as you think it is. Perhaps I’m biased due to my own Aries moon, but this placement is one of passion and spontaneity. The moon is how each of us processes our emotions, and how we react to situations internally. Aries moons love adventure, and are down to do basically anything. Additionally, they are super idealistic, and will stop at nothing in pursuit of their goals.
However, this placement isn’t all sunshine and rainbows. Aries moons can also have a short temper, tend to be quite emotional, and even be a little too blunt at times.
But, Matt Rife has his Mercury in Libra.
This placement explains a lot. Since Mercury is the planet of communication, the bubbly and communicative Libra is right at home here β it’s ruled by Mercury, which controls how we communicate! This could explain Rife’s confidence on stage and his super personable attitude toward the crowd.
Despite being at home in this placement, Libra Mercuries have a tendency to doubt themselves at times. They can also be indecisive, and have trouble making big-time decisions.
His Venus is in Virgo, Too.
More Earth in the chart! The Venus sign, in astrology, is all about how we love and how we approach love. Rife being a Virgo Venus means he has an almost traditional approach to love: Perhaps, deep down, there’s a wish to settle down with one partner. Virgo Venuses are also great listeners in their relationships and are extremely loyal to their partner(s).
Yet, Virgo Venuses can also be pretty “picky,” and may nitpick their SO for potential icks. They’re not the most affectionate sign, but their love language is mainly translated through acts of service or quality time.
Finally, Matt Rife’s Mars is in Scorpio.
OK, if there’s one placement to be a little afraid of, it’s this one. However, it’s not as bad as you think! Sure, they tend to be extremely ambitious (to the point of obsession) and can be quite harsh and blunt at times, but Scorpio Mars folks are extremely loyal, and have a soft spot for the people they love. While they may come across as intimidating or excessively dominant, this placement is a great signal of a person who is willing to work hard in pursuit of their goals.
So, what zodiac sign is Matt Rife most compatible with?
Finally, the moment we’ve all been waiting for: Am I β I mean β are you compatible with Matt Rife astrologically? Well, if you’re Taurus, Scorpio, or Pisces (yay!) then you’re in luck. Virgos and Tauruses both have that Earth sign vibe, while Scorpio matches Virgo on a more romantic and intimate level. Additionally, Virgo and Pisces are a great match as well β they balance each other out perfectly. What do we think: Should I shoot my shot?
