Selena Gomez was born on July 22, 1992 in Grand Prairie, TX. She rose to fame for her starring role as Alex Russo on Disney’s Wizards of Waverly Place. In 2008, she formed the band Selena Gomez & the Scene. She released three hit albums with the band, then embarked upon her solo career. Her first two solo albums, Stars Dance (2013) and Revival (2015), hit #1 on the U.S. Billboard chart.
What is Selena Gomez’s Personality Type?
Selena Gomez is a fiery, emotional creature. As a result of the preponderance of emotion, sensation, and feeling in her psychological make-up, she has acquired a deep sense of her individuality and uniqueness. She sometimes feels “different” – set apart from others. In order to justify this idea of herself, she attempts to behave differently, to impress the crowd, and the product of her efforts is usually rather grandiose and exaggerated.
It’s a self-perpetuating bind, because her impressive deeds usually earn recognition for her, and reinforce her self-assurance and her certainty that she does indeed stand head and shoulders above the rest. She sometimes makes an attempt to bluff and show off with an emotional display. She likes to take risks and give people advice. Nevertheless, at the basis of her conduct, there is a feeling of social anxiety, which is probably unconscious or unconfessed. She may fear being absorbed or enslaved by society.
The positive side of this unconscious anxiety is that it drives her to create, to counteract the deeply felt effects of time and the masses on her ego. By creating something, she can make her own individual mark on the world; she can organize it to reflect her own image, instead of allowing herself to be submerged by it. The preceding comments about creating the world in her own image are strong indications that she seeks to identify with her superego. The difference between her ideal of herself and the individual she knows herself to be in truth, measured in terms of her social recognition or the recognition of her creations (children, works of art, etc.), will determine her state of mind. It is therefore important for her to make these images match to a certain extent, to reduce the gap as much as possible.
The psychological dynamic described earlier explains many of the pluses and minuses in her personality. Her dignity and self-assurance may border on vanity; her strong instinct and ambition combined with her somewhat exaggerated individualism incline her to be self-focused. She may be proud, but she is also courageous, determined, and generous. She has the skills of an educator or an artist; moreover, she is mysteriously lucky.
Selena Gomez wants to wield power and enjoy social prestige. Selena Gomez feels quite at home in the modern world others find frightening.
Selena Gomez is attentive to work and profit. She will probably be financially comfortable throughout her life.
At the time of Selena Gomez’s birth, her rising sign was located in Capricorn (the Goat), while the sun was passing through the sign of Leo (the Lion). A summary of the various clues mentioned above provide her personality profile. The following key words capture the essence of her character and indicate certain contradictions which may be sources of tension:
Narcissism – Need for security – Determination – Inhibition – Pride and self-assurance – Application – Superiority – Methodical mind – Brilliance – Forethought – Generosity – Loyalty – Optimism.
Selena Gomez’s energetic, proud, and self-admiring side engages her guileful, withdrawn, calculating side either in conflict or in cooperation, depending on the circumstances.
Selena Gomez’s authority and determination often monopolize her energy, at the expense of her emotions. Or she may find herself distracted from pursuing her goals by the whisperings of her heart. By middle age, however, she should reach a balance which gives liberal expression to all her gifts. Control over her emotions, pride, and passions should then give her access to the highest realms of self-realization.
Born in the seven to ten days after the full moon rose, Selena Gomez is of the “last quarter” lunar type. As a result, her personality is fairly independent and self-sufficient. Her ideas are original and often bold, but, to her dismay, do not often garner a majority of followers.
Her sense of humor is her best communications tool, but she often switches to a more severe tone which breaks her charm over her audience, and her methods do not always please the masses.
Her lack of flexibility hinders her strategies and projects, and she would gain by developing her sense of diplomacy and tact. Although she is not unduly attached to success, because she is so used to being ahead of her time, her failures take a psychological toll on her. Because each setback wears her down a little more, she should try to avoid further disappointments by conforming to contemporary reality a little more closely.
Who is Selena Gomez’s perfect match?
Selena Gomez’s sun is located at 0° LEO. Selena Gomez’s drive for psycho-sexual fulfillment would best be aroused by a person whose Moon is at 0/10° LEO or AQUARIUS.
This relationship could yield a high degree of psychological compatibility and powerful mutual attraction. The physical and psychological reality of Selena Gomez’s personality will exert a magnetic pull over the sensitivity, receptivity, tenderness, and other key qualities of her partner.
Selena Gomez’s moon is located at 1° TAURUS. Her ideal match is a partner with the sun at 0/10° TAURUS or SCORPIO.
Selena Gomez would be particularly well-matched to someone who mirrors her underlying psychic and unconscious aspirations. The secret ideal she cherishes of the perfect partner would be aroused; it would harmonize beautifully with her ideal imaginary lover. This great psychic compatibility is the result of a harmonious relationship between the Moon of the masculine chart and the sun of the feminine one. It is propitious to a rich flow of energies between the most hidden and secret parts of both people. They are linked by an unconscious emotional bond.
Selena Gomez’s Venus is located at 11° LEO. Selena Gomez’s ideal match is a partner with Mars at 5/17° LEO or AQUARIUS.
This type of partner would complement Selena Gomez perfectly in emotional and sentimental terms. This person would reflect and fulfill Selena’s ideal of sensuality to the greatest degree. Moreover, Selena’s ideal partner would resonate lastingly with her own psychic projections of her ideal. This positive relationship between the unconscious sexual yearnings of both partners would be likely to yield sensual relations of a tantalizingly mysterious and secret nature.
Selena has lofty amorous ideals and only falls under the spell of brilliant, worldly, artistic types. Selena is especially proud and displeased by any sign of a lack of respect or loyalty. Selena would be especially wise to choose this type. This person is demonstrative, brilliant, warm, and generous. Although Selena’s type tends to be somewhat emphatic and dramatic, their frankness and righteousness make them irresistible to Selena.
Selena Gomez’s Planet Mars is located at 27° TAURUS. Selena Gomez’s ideal match is a partner with Venus at 20/30° TAURUS or SCORPIO.
