He got rich without dying.
With iconic hits since he took the world by storm in the early 2000s, 50 Cent, 47, has gone on to prove that his legacy isn’t just made with music, it’s a global empire built upon his entrepreneurship, personality and entertainment. With an immense high-net worth, the powerhouse is known for his unapologetic lifestyle—stirring the pot with major celebs like Madonna and Lil Kim as well as throwing down cash to tip big.
Then there’s his empire he’s built with shows like “Power,” which continues with the latest premiere of the spin-off in the series “Power Book III: Raising Kanan,” which debuts August 14th, as well as products like Path of Kings (Chemin du Roi) Champagne, Branson VSOP cognac and his Green Light Gang fashion line. This titan just can’t be stopped. Having performed at the 2022 Superbowl and with a huge tour and many new projects in the works, 50 Cent has a very bright and mighty future ahead of him.
So what makes him such a king? Was he always meant to dominate and own his share of the world? Join me as we dive into his stars because I’m a pop culture astrologer and I can see it all.
50 Cent is a powerhouse Cancer Sun.
50 Cent’s birth chart shows how he conquered life’s challenges to conquer the world
50 Cent was born on July 6, 1975. This makes him a strong-willed Cancer Sun with an intelligent Gemini Moon. When it comes to elemental energy, he is heavily composed of both Air and Fire. When someone has a great deal of these kinds of energies, they often possess a dynamic, extroverted and witty personality. They tend to have a theatrical edge to them, as they thrive on passion, ideas and interaction. Keeping them boxed in a cage doesn’t work well because they thrive on spontaneity—and all of this can be seen within 50 Cent.
When analyzing his astrological aspects, we can see several different themes present themselves repeatedly throughout his birth chart. First, with the way his planets meet, we can see that ultimately 50 Cent is tremendously original and inventive. His Venus, the planet of art, links to Uranus, the planet of rebellion, which shows that he is immensely creative and thrives on having multiple interests and explorations. He demands freedom of expression and lifestyle and is boldly independent. He can be unconventional in some of his attitudes, but he is unbothered by the opinions of others because he knows he is a titan.
His Mercury, the planet of communication, links to Uranus, too, which allows him to have a brilliant and penetrating mind, granting him the ability to pick up new concepts rapidly and then make them his own. His Mars, the planet of energy, and Jupiter, the planet of luck, both stand opposite Uranus, too. He has immense resources of energy and demands to explore new horizons rather than ever being limited. He has an action-oriented personality, which makes him a nonconformist, totally living and abiding by his own code of ethics.

Next, we can see why 50 Cent is also so charming and charismatic. His Mercury dances with Jupiter, making him very clever and generally good-natured, as well as having a bright sense of humor. His Sun, ruling his life force, smiles upon Jupiter, bringing him a courageous and loyal temperament, as well as fortune and favor especially in regards to the material realms of life. His Venus spins with Mars and Jupiter, granting him a lively personality with a genuine sense of kindness and magnetism, as well.
Yet, the last theme that can be seen running through his birth chart is that 50 Cent ultimately has faced significant challenges repeatedly in his life that have made him stronger. The stars above have not made it “easy” for him, as they have for many other celebrities out there. In fact, he’s had to face hurdles, enemies and drama time and again. First, we can see that his Moon stands obscured by Neptune, which has caused deception to sometimes stand before him. He may have idealized certain people, relationships and situations to only realize they were an illusion.
His Jupiter clashes with Saturn, which has made him very ambitious, but has often shown that his rise to the top has at times hit barriers that he has had to surmount. His Sun is crushed by Saturn, too, which has created blockages and at times made him feel like his energy has been drained and his sense of hope lost. His Sun then is attacked by Pluto, the planet of darkness and enemies, which has caused him to face insecurity on the deepest of levels so he could transform that pain into power. Overall, 50 Cent used these hurdles to drive him toward success.

What are predictions for 50 Cent?
So what lies ahead for 50 Cent? More glory—or more challenges? Luckily, he has a brighter road ahead of him over the next several years. To be honest, one of his darker periods lasted between 2017 to 2020, when he felt the weight of the world. Mighty Pluto, the planet of rebirth but also shadow, has stood across the sky from him since 2008 and will soon leave this arena and will never return here again in his lifetime. Life will improve yet again. Mighty Jupiter, the planet of expansion, sings at the crown of his chart from May to October 2022 and will once again return in the first five months of 2023.
This ensures great success and more acclaim, as he revels in what he has built. But even better news comes beginning the summer of 2023, as he will see his fan base expand, as well as collaborates with many of his closest friends and business partners. This period will be as if he is lifted to the stars and celebrated in ways he hasn’t felt in over a decade. His income will also grow because of this, too. May he continue to thrive like the king that he is. You heard it here first.
