It’s a new ‘Era’ for Tay Tay and she’s back at it in the ring of romance with another man/muse/musician with hair in his eyes and hope in his heart.
Sources say Swift is ‘madly in love’ with former flame Matty Healy of The 1975. The two were first linked way back in 2014 when they were seen wearing each other’s merch and partying at various tour stops.
It seems the two have kept in touch as Swift made a surprise appearance during The 1975’s January performance at the O2 Arena in London, weeks ahead of speculation regarding their rekindled romance.
Healy previously stated that dating the likes of Swift would be “an emasculating experience,” but it would seem he has changed his tune and grown comfortable enough in his own power to reconsider that stance.
Way to nut up and level up, Matt,
How apropos that the revelation of these two reuniting is happening in the rewind, revisit, reconcile days of a Mercury Retrograde in Taurus. Stars never lie and Swift never stays single for long, folks. Her heart is the engine and dudes are the fuel.
The singer’s illustrious and well documented dating history is rife with both Brits (Tom Hiddleston) and musicians (John Mayer, Joe Jonas) and the BOGO appearance of British musicians like Healy, Harry Styles and Calvin Harris. Prior to his most recent entanglement with Swift, Healy kept company with the likes of Halsey, Ali Lohan, Gabriella Brooks, FKA Twigs and Charlotte Briar D’Alessio.
In honor of new love with old friends, we’re taking a look at the birth chart’s of fire babies Swift and Healy to measure compatibility, viability and lyrical fall out. Read on to learn more.
Fire suns and committal moons
Born unto us on December 13, 1989, Swift is a Sagittarius sun with a Cancer moon. Built to love and capitalize on loss, Swift has a watch your back, vengeance as cardio Scorpio Mars and a get paid and laid stellium in Capricorn.
Matt Healy was born April 8, 1989 in the gasoline heart of Aries season with his sun, Mercury and Venus all in the sign of cardinal fire. Tempering the intensity is Healy’s potato loving, comfort craving, commit to matching tats and hand towels Taurus moon.

A tale of many trines
Swift’s sun in Sagittarius forms a beautiful trine with Healy’s sun in Aries. Elementally, this pair of fire signs find common ground and shared kindling in their love for adventure, impulse, fast cars and bad jokes.
Fire sees fire and they likely communicate in an incessant nearly telepathic way. Swift’s sun also forms breezy beneficial trines with Healy’s Mercury, planet of exchange and Venus, planet of love and attraction. These aspects suggest that Swift has much to teach Healy and he will be an enthusiastic student of her solar power.
They travel well together, connect easily, resolve quickly, laugh often, vibe hard and generally make each other look and feel very, very good. Blue skies, complimentary clothing, sunshine daydreams abound with these two.
Moon Magic
Coming off her relationship with Pisces prince Joe Alwyn, the bold, action oriented, externally directed energy of Healy is likely to be a welcome change of pace.
In terms of basic archetypes with Alwyn is a sleepy eyed poet in a cable knit sweater, standing with a quarter inch of cold coffee in a hand hewn mug making French Onion soup peppered with tears, vulnerability and top notes of ennui.
Alternatively, Healy is built for speed, born for winning competitor that is here to get it on and get it done, eat raw meat, spontaneously kiss strangers and dole out post coital high fives and incendiary dares. Go bold or go home.
Interestingly, both Alwyn and Healy have Taurus moons, a cozy, down to commit, ok with clinginess placement that plays right into the crab claws of Swift’s love me forever or else Cancer moon.
Hot take: a deep moon misalignment is the true reason Swift and fellow archer Jake Gyllenhaal didn’t pan out and explains why Swift continues to pen songs in memory of all that could have been. A ‘here for a good time not a long time, can’t commit to an appetizer let alone a person lunar Gemini like Gyllenhaal equals absolute emotional wreckage to the Snuggie-esque, tear drops on my guitar Cancer moon. Moving on…us, not her, obviously.
Swift’s Saturn, planet of structure, is in strong conjunction with Healy’s Neptune, planet of imagination. As a pair of artist/writers/performers this conjunction is pure bedrock and suggests they lend each other an equal measure of support and inspiration and a true safe space to draw from. Of the two, Healy is likely to be the more giving which is a real boon and departure for Swift whose Cancer moon easily creeps into caretaking/martyr territory.
Because Healy and Swift were born a few scant months apart they share many generational placements such as Saturn, Uranus, and Neptune which adds to the general symmetry and sweetness of their synastry. Healy’s emotional center in fixed earth provides ballast for Swift while his Mars, planet of provocation in head game heavy Gemini will keep her interested and inspired. It’s a star match for these two, long may you burn and sweet may you sing, fire babies.
