On 11 October 2026, Victoria Monét's official website led with a simple line: her album Frequency of Love is out now. The site doesn't give a release date, and this article doesn't review the record or claim anything about what's on it.
What we can look at is how she has described making music before, and what her birth chart offers as a set of questions alongside it. The two are kept separate below.
What she said about building a record
In a Teen Vogue interview by Jaelani Turner-Williams, published on 24 August 2023, Monét talked about Jaguar II. That's three years before Frequency of Love, so it describes how she worked then, not what the new album contains. Paraphrased, three things stand out:
- The inspiration was specific. She pointed to 1970s live instrumentation and to artistry that is individual and unapologetic.
- Not every song made the cut. Some songs were left off Jaguar II because they didn't fit the sonic world the album was building, not because they weren't good.
- She competes with herself, not others, while working. She wants to keep getting better by her own measure, but keeps comparison with other people out of her mind in the studio and tries to stay in the moment.
There's a real tension in that last pair. Making a cohesive record means saying no to good material. Doing your best work, by her account, means not measuring yourself against everyone else while you do it. One is about editing hard; the other is about protecting the space to make things at all.
The chart, and how it was checked
What's on record: Victoria Monét was born on 1 May 1989. Wikipedia gives Atlanta, Georgia, and says she was raised in Sacramento; Wikidata records only the state of Georgia. No birth time is on record.
Without a time, there's no Rising sign and no houses. Lunara sampled her birth day at 25 times across the Atlanta local day and kept only placements and contacts that held at every sample.
What held all day:
- Sun in Taurus, at about 11°, and Venus in Taurus, at about 18°.
- Both trine Saturn in Capricorn: the Sun within about two to three degrees, Venus within about four to five.
- Both opposite Pluto in Scorpio, by the same margins.
- Mars at the very start of Cancer, about 1–2°, within about two degrees of Chiron.
- The Moon in Pisces from the first minute of the day to the last. Its sign is certain, but its exact degree depends on the unknown time, so it isn't used.
Symbolic lens: pleasure, practised
This section is interpretation, not evidence. Her chart didn't choose her influences, and it doesn't explain why a song made an album or didn't.
Taurus is the sign astrologers associate with the senses: texture, sound, comfort, things that feel good. Venus is the planet of taste and pleasure, and Taurus is one of the signs where it's traditionally considered at home. Having both the Sun and Venus there puts that theme at the centre of the chart.
What keeps it from being a lazy "Taurus loves luxury" reading is Saturn. Saturn is the planet of discipline, practice and time. A trine is an easy, supportive contact. When both the Sun and Venus trine Saturn in an earth sign, astrologers read it as pleasure that's built: taste refined through repetition, craft and patience rather than found by accident.
Set beside her account of drawing on 1970s live instrumentation, that's a neat image. It isn't a cause.
Pluto adds the other side. Opposite the Sun and Venus, Pluto in Scorpio is read as intensity and the power to cut away what isn't essential. One symbolic reading is taste as editing: knowing what belongs as clearly as knowing what you love. That sits alongside, without explaining, her decision to leave songs off an album because they didn't fit its world.
And Mars at the very start of Cancer, beside Chiron, is traditionally read as effort that flows best in a setting that feels safe and contained. That's one symbolic way to think about the studio as a protected space, where comparison is kept outside the door.
One softer note runs underneath all that earth. The Sun makes a close trine to Neptune, within about one to one and a half degrees all day, and the Moon sits in Pisces. Both are read as mood, atmosphere and imagination: the part of a chart that doesn't want edges at all.
Questions to take from it
These work whether or not you use astrology:
- What do you enjoy more now because you practised it for years? Pleasure and discipline aren't opposites; often one makes the other possible.
- What good idea have you set aside because it didn't belong? Cutting something strong for the sake of the whole is a skill, not a loss.
- Where do you do your best work: when you know how others are doing, or when you can forget about them for a while?
Try it with your own chart
Look at where your own Venus is, and whether anything in your chart connects it to Saturn. The point isn't to match Victoria Monét. It's to notice whether your chart frames pleasure as something you're given or something you build, and whether that matches your experience.
