Kourtney Kardashian

Kourtney Kardashian is the eldest of the Kardashian sisters, and for years she was the one who seemed least interested in being famous. On Keeping Up with the Kardashians, which began in 2007, she was often the skeptic, rolling her eyes at the family's ambitions. Yet she was also the first of the sisters to go into business, opening a children's boutique with her mother before co-founding the D-A-S-H boutiques with Kim and Khloé, and later the founder of Poosh, a lifestyle and wellness brand.

She was born at 3:15 in the morning on April 18, 1979, at Cedars-Sinai Medical Center in Los Angeles, according to her birth certificate. Her Sun is in late Aries, and it falls in the second house of money, possessions and personal values. Aries is the pioneer, the sign that likes to go first, and in the second house it describes someone who takes the lead in building her own resources. As the eldest, Kourtney was also first in line in the family business of being watched.

Mercury and Mars, both in Aries, sit in her first house, alongside Venus in Pisces. Pisces is her rising sign. Mars and Mercury in Aries in the first describe directness and a willingness to speak bluntly, and her on-screen arguments with her sisters were famously sharp. Venus in Pisces softens the overall impression, giving a dreamy, gentle quality to how she presents herself.

She is the daughter of Kris Jenner and Robert Kardashian, the lawyer who became famous as part of O.J. Simpson's defense team. She studied theater arts at the University of Arizona before returning to Los Angeles.

Jupiter, the planet of growth and abundance, sits in Cancer, at the very end of the sign, in her fifth house, which governs children and creativity. Jupiter in Cancer is a classic signature of a large, devoted family, and Kardashian has been open about how central motherhood is to her life. She had three children with Scott Disick, Mason, Penelope and Reign, during a long on-and-off relationship documented on the show.

Her Moon is in Capricorn, in the eleventh house of friends and networks. A Capricorn Moon looks for structure and control, and it often hides softness behind practicality.

Saturn, retrograde in Virgo, lies in her sixth house, the domain of daily routine and health. Saturn in Virgo is associated with disciplined, careful habits, and Kardashian has made wellness a central part of her public life, from diet to parenting, and turned it into Poosh, launched in 2019.

In 2022 she married the drummer Travis Barker, and in November 2023 they had a son, Rocky, after Kardashian spoke publicly about IVF and an emergency fetal surgery during the pregnancy. The new marriage gave the family show a very different kind of romance to document. The Aries Sun went first, as the eldest; Jupiter in the house of children made the family bigger.
