Practicing astrology babes-or people that simply enjoy psychoanalyzing (and judging) people based on a bunch of signs that may or may not be made-up-come to the front! This week, we’re talking about Zodiac signs! While it is not advisable to take horoscopes, birth charts and the like too seriously, it’s fun to see how some traits of these signs can be found in the personalities of those born under them (for example, why are Aquarius men like #that). It’s also a great conversation starter (are you truly a real flirter if you’ve never tried to rizz someone up by asking what time they were born?).
We’ll be kicking off this very juicy Zodiac series by matching some of these signs with your favorite Mavin songs. Keep reading to find out what your signature song is!
Aries- DND by Rema
This author personally believes the rumors about Aries natives being impulsive hotheads have been greatly exaggerated. What they actually suffer from is an excess of energy and all-round realness that may make them seem like well, a lot. They are bold, ambitious, and passionate about their pursuits in a way that can be overbearing, but they mean well. They carry this intensity into their relationships as well, so prepare for a rollercoaster if you ever find yourself in love with an Aries (don’t be scared, just hold on tight!). Rema’s “DND” is Aries personified-feisty, daring and always one trigger away from spiraling out of control.
Gemini- Sability by Ayra Starr
Geminis are versatile, sociable, witty and allegedly two faced (we just think they know how to code switch really well). They are the life of the party and super fun to be around, although they can also be flighty and inconsistent due to their many, many interests. Our Gemini queen Ayra Starr’s “Sability” embodies the dynamic, playful and intellectual nature of the Zodiac’s social butterflies.
Cancer– How Are You (My Friend) by Johnny Drille
Undeniably the crybabies of the Zodiac, Cancers are often criticized for being overly emotional and hypersensitive (this is true, but that’s not the point). Because they are so in tune with the emotions of others, they tend to be very nurturing, caring and empathetic people. Johnny Drille’s “How Are You (My Friend)” perfectly encapsulates the warm, compassionate energy this water sign exudes (literally, they will ask you how you’re doing a thousand times and then two more times to be absolutely sure).
Taurus- Law of Attraction by Ladipoe
Though Tauruses are generally known for being loyal, dependable and patient, they can also be deeply sensual and indulgent creatures. They have an intense connection to their senses and often have great appreciation for art, beauty and the finer things of life. Ladipoe’s “Law of Attraction” flawlessly captures the sensual energy of a Taurus sun. However, Taureans tend to be slow burners so it may take a while to unearth this side of them.
Leo- Hypnotic by Elestee
“Na me be the girl wey go rock this party” is definitely something a Leo would say. This fire sign loves to be the center of attention and will stand out at any gathering they’re at (whether you like it or not). Leos are bold, charismatic and-like the beat of Elestee’s “Hypnotic”-very hard to resist. If you’ve ever been in the presence of a Leo you know how magnetic their energy is and how hard it is to get them to stop making everything about themselves! However, they make up for this by being very loyal and generous people.
