Welcome to Shiposcopes, where we analyze the astrological compatibility for our favorite celebrity and fictional relationships. Because sometimes, the planets are the very best relationship consultant.
It’s difficult to remain impartial about who Belly Conklin should end up with. As The Summer I Turned Pretty’s final season draws to a close, that romantic outcome feels less predictable with each passing episode. The first two seasons made a strong case for Jeremiah as Belly’s soulmate. He was the underdog, quietly pining for her while she remained fixated on Conrad. He had the special ability to lift her spirits during her weakest moments and provide her with a safe space to take life less seriously. Then, in season 3, Conrad—now therapized and college-educated—and a certain spring break trip to Cabo came through like a ton of bricks and seemingly annihilated much of the online fan loyalty to Jeremiah.
There’s plenty of plot to support both sides of the “Who’s meant for Belly?” argument. Conrad was a poor communicator throughout season 2; Jeremiah was disloyal during season 3; the pendulum has swung both ways. But to assess who’s truly the more compatible pairing, we should step away from everyone’s respective villain arcs and heroic moments and examine the characters themselves. And what better way to analyze someone than through their astrological birth chart?
To settle 2025’s most prevalent debate, we’re breaking down the hypothetical charts of the show’s main players. Unfortunately, these readings are not based on real birth dates and times, rather on each character’s energy and actions (so yes, we made them up). With that, let’s dive in!
Belly Conklin’s "Birth Chart" Snapshot
- Libra Sun
- Cancer Moon
- Cancer Rising
- Scorpio Venus
- Libra Mars
She’s a true lover girl, sometimes to her detriment, which is why Belly’s a romance-oriented Libra Sun. Her attachment to home, tradition, and family supports a sensitive Cancer Moon placement, reinforced by Cancer Rising. That rising sign gives her a soft, nurturing disposition that people can read on her immediately. It’s the intense, all-or-nothing Scorpio Venus that fuels so much of her relationship drama. This placement defines how a person approaches love, and with devoted Scorpio here, she’ll find her entanglements marked by overwhelming, transformative highs and lows.
Conrad Fisher’s "Birth Chart" Snapshot
- Scorpio Sun
- Capricorn Moon
- Pisces Rising
- Scorpio Venus
- Capricorn Mars
Conrad has the quiet-desire game on lock; we can credit his hypothetical Scorpio Sun and Venus for that. For people with these placements, showing affection is less about communication and more about action. Capricorn Moons are often forced to grow up quickly, and as the eldest of the Conklin/Fisher gang, it looks like Conrad’s been playing the leadership role since before he could tie his shoes (like, why was he regularly chaperoning this group at 8 years old?). His Capricorn Mars further emphasizes his disciplined, responsible nature. He takes duty and long-term goals seriously, in his love life and all other areas.
Jeremiah Fisher’s "Birth Chart" Snapshot
- Gemini Sun
- Cancer Moon
- Libra Rising
- Cancer Venus
- Gemini Mars
Geminis are witty, charming, and great at making everyone feel seen and special. Jeremiah can make small talk with the best of them, a trait that's aided by his gregarious Libra Rising and Gemini Mars. Air sign placements make excellent socialites. His soft Cancer Moon would make him incredibly empathetic and caring, though a bit moody, with a tendency to adopt a victim mentality (I write this as a self-aware Cancer Moon).
Belly and Jeremiah Compatibility
Both he and Belly have Air Sign placements, so they are great at having fun together. Belly’s Cancer Moon meeting Jeremiah’s Cancer Venus bodes well, too (in astrological compatibility, it’s advantageous when one person’s emotional nature—the Moon—aligns with the other’s love language—Venus). Despite all that’s transpired (“all” mainly being Jere’s transgressions on his Cabo trip), these two have always shared an unspoken understanding of each other’s emotional rhythm. That’s what a shared Moon sign fosters, and it’s why they’ve leaned on each other since childhood (arguably when your Moon sign shows its traits the most).
But the issue with this couple is that Jeremiah’s Gemini Mars isn’t especially compatible with Belly’s Cancer Moon or Scorpio Venus. Belly’s water placements need to feel emotionally secure and protected by her partner. While Jeremiah has strong water elements in his chart that recognize that need, his strong Gemini Sun and Mars are chasing constant mental stimulation that Belly can’t always entertain. She shouldn’t have to step out of her comfort zone to ensure her partner doesn’t get distracted or bored.
Belly and Conrad Compatibility
Conrad’s (again, imaginary) chart is filled with grounded, earth-sign energy; consistent and protective. Her Cancer Moon sits in opposition to his Capricorn Moon, which means he acts on logic when she acts out of emotion, but that sister-sign dynamic is complementary in long-term relationships. What’s especially compelling about how these charts interact is their shared Venus in Scorpio. This placement can easily be seen as “too much.” They’re prone to grand gestures, longstanding crushes, dramatic confessions, and even cageyness. But their ability to match each other’s intensity here will go a long way if they give the relationship a chance. They embrace each other’s depth—and that’s the kind of compatibility that matters in the long run.
So in conclusion...
The planets agree. It's Belly and Conrad forever.
