This page compares the nine bodies a birth date alone can place, Sun through Pluto, and lists the Chiron and lunar node contacts alongside them. The Moon is drawn as the span it could have moved through and is scored in nothing here; the ascendant axis and the house ring are left out by design, not by omission, so nothing on this page is scored against a birth time it cannot trust.
The overlap
Where the two charts touch
Beyoncé’s Mercury and Kelly Rowland’s Mars are 0.17 degrees from an exact quincunx.
Kelly Rowland’s birth time is not exact, so the Moon is not scored and the ascendant axis and house ring are not drawn for either chart. Sun through Pluto move at most about two degrees in a day, so every contact below is the same whatever the time.

27 of the 37 contacts fall between Sun and Pluto, and all 27 are in the grid. A boxed cell is within one degree. The other 10 contacts involve Chiron and the lunar nodes and are listed below, 2 of them in the tight layer.
A cell is a plain glyph. The aspect it names is a Codex Link in the sentences above.
Beyoncé inner ring, Kelly Rowland outer ring, with the contacts inside one degree drawn. 7 of them are between Sun and Pluto; the rest involve bodies that are not on either ring.

Shared generation
7 of 37Jupiter through Pluto on both sides. Born 7 months apart, these two have their outer planets in nearly the same degrees, so anyone born near them shares most of this group. Listed because it is real, kept apart because it says little about the pair.

Trines and sextiles are soft, squares, oppositions and quincunxes hard. A conjunction depends on which two bodies meet, so it carries no tone here.
Why they click
Venus trines Sun at 1.69 degrees and Mercury trines Venus at 5.54, putting attraction at 66, the strongest category in this pairing. The warmth here is real and it arrives through Venus in both directions, which is why the charge holds even where the rest of the synastry stays awkward.
Why they clash
Four of the seven contacts are quincunxes, including Mercury to Mars at 0.17 degrees and Mars to Mars at 1.52. That is an unusual concentration of the one angle that never resolves cleanly. These charts keep meeting at positions that require constant small adjustments rather than a single reckoning.
What each system says
Twelve systems, two people
This is what comparing two charts system by system looks like: the same birth data on both sides, read against each other one system at a time.
The Suns are 160° apart, outside orb of any aspect, which is why identity reads as an empty channel above.

Guna Milan is the compatibility method used in Vedic matchmaking, traditionally consulted before an arranged marriage. It scores eight factors between two Moon placements on a 36-point scale, shown here as what this one tradition reads: not a verdict, and not averaged with the Western reading above, which may disagree.

Frequently asked
Are Beyoncé and Kelly Rowland astrologically compatible?
Their charts make 37 cross-aspects, the tightest at 0.17° and 2.3°. Astrology does not score a relationship out of a hundred, and the number on this page counts how much contact two charts make, not how well two people do.
Why isn't there a house ring on the chart above?
At least one of Beyoncé and Kelly Rowland doesn't have a curated, non-estimated birth time, so a house placement would be a guess. This page only shows what a birth date alone can place.
What does conjunction mean between two charts?
A conjunction puts two placements at nearly the same degree, so their energies blend into one signal rather than two. Beyoncé and Kelly Rowland have 10 conjunction contacts between them, more than any other type.
