Leah McSweeney is gearing up for a brawl with Heather Thomson on this season of The Real Housewives of New York, and the two reality star's zodiac signs explain the pair's contention. Before season 13 even debuted, news of Leah and Heather's feud made fans wonder what the two New York housewives could have to fight about. The discord between the beefing reality stars can be explained by the differences in Leah's Virgo Sun sign and Heather's Aries zodiac sign.
Leah McSweeney has been a refreshing addition to the Real Housewives of New York since her introduction in season 12. Although Leah has had her fair share of arguments with RHONY staples like Ramona Singer, she has successfully found her role within the group of New York housewives in season 13. Alas, the harmony Leah has fostered with Ramona, Sonja, Luann, and Eboni appears to be unavailable to Heather Thomson. Leah has spent the first trio of season 13's episodes warning the other women of her distaste for Heather's comments about her co-stars since Heather stopped being a main RHONY housewife in 2015. As fans anticipate the inevitable brawl between Leah and Heather, astrology provides answers on why the two reality stars are incompatible.
Leah McSweeney was born on August 27, 1982, in New York, New York. This means that Leah will turn 39 this upcoming Virgo season which runs from August 23 to September 22. As Mutable Earth signs, Virgos are grounded and embrace change. Represented by "the Maiden," Virgo is a highly attentive zodiac sign that appreciates nature and health, but dislikes rudeness and relying on others. Strengths of Virgo Sun signs include being loyal, analytical, and caring. Flaws of the later Summer Sun sign include their tendency to worry, argue, and be overly critical of themselves and others. Leah has exhibited her Virgo placement throughout her burgeoning career on The Real Housewives of New York. A prime example of Leah embodying the pros and cons of her Virgo sign includes her loyalty to her sister resulting in an argument with Ramona when the OG housewife dismissed Leah's sister during season 12.
Heather Thomson was born on April 17, 1970, in New York, New York. This means that Heather recently celebrated her 51st birthday this past Aries season which ranges from March 21 to April 19. Aries is a Cardinal Fire sign, which results in Aries placements naturally becoming bold leaders. Represented by "the Ram," Aries like taking on new challenges and sports, but detest hesitation and inactivity. Strengths commonly associated with Aries are courage, honesty, and enthusiasm. Weaknesses of the fiery zodiac sign include being short-tempered, impulsive, and aggressive. Heather has exhibited these positive and negative traits through her squabbles with Aviva and Bethenny Frankel on previous RHONY seasons and the disses she made about housewives like Sonja Morgan since leaving the show.
While Virgos and Aries are both strong-minded individualist signs, these two zodiac signs go about leading their lives in opposite ways. Wheres Virgos prefer to think things through before making decisions, Aries will run with their gut instinct. On The Real Housewives of New York, Leah has stated that she is annoyed with Heather for making rude comments about Luann, Ramona, and Sonja in the press. This speaks to Leah's loyalty as a Virgo and Heather's honesty as an Aries. One reason why this conflict is sure to escalate is because of Leah's inability to let her criticism of Heather go. As a Virgo, Leah can be unreasonably critical of those around her, and Heather will have to prove herself truly changed to appease Leah. Unfortunately, Heather's nature is not to appease others. As an Aries, Heather will stick up for herself in the face of Leah's harsh judgment.
If either Leah or Heather's zodiac signs were inclined to receiving constructive criticism, the two could have worked through their differences and forged a friendship out of the conflict. Unfortunately, Leah's Virgo Sun sign and Heather's Aries zodiac placement are destined to butt heads. Virgo and Aries signs should take the imminent showdown on The Real Housewives of New York as proof compatibility is not always in the stars.
