I know, I know, very original post. I was coming down from a shroom trip last night, and after I finished reflecting on the experience I noticed I couldn't fall asleep, so I decided to arrange a setlist of songs that represent the vibes of the signs, or songs that remind me of a sign's qualities/characteristics. This set flows really well from one song to the next, but I didn't feel like making a mix, so I recommend having two tabs open to have the next one ready to play/keep the flow going.1.) Aries ♈️
a.) Atonement by Opeth
- "At-One-Mind", the suffix -ment is derived from the Latin "mente" which means "mind"
- Aries, the Ram, rules the head, face, and mind.
- "In Esoteric Astrology, it is said that the Soul begins its journey in Aries as a “point of light in the mind of God.” As the first Zodiac sign, Aries is often said to be the sign that is “closest to God,” because the “point of light” (which is the newly-conceived Soul) has not left God’s mind yet. Which also explains why Aries is one of the most intuitive signs. It’s as though Aries has an “access-all-areas” pass into the mind of God!"
- Mikael Åkerfeldt (the mastermind behind Opeth) is an Aries Sun

b.) Stargazer by Rainbow
- This Ritchie Blackmore (Aries Sun) composition exudes Aries energy, especially the solo
- The lyrics/delivery are fitting for Aries, and Dio's power vocals will please anyone with prominent Aries energy 
https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=W6CjO0H2j0s
2.) Taurus ♉️
a.) I Sing the Body Electric by Arms and Sleepers
- Taurus placements (especially Mercury, Ascendant, Sun, and Moon) are known to bestow pleasant voices (along with a will/desire to utilize the voice), hence the song title and the musicality of the song itself is why I chose it for Taurus.
https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=mHC0sojZJzA
b.) Blue and Green by Great Dane
- One of the many characteristics of Taurus energy is an attraction towards sensual pleasures. This song (when listened to with excellent earphones or great speakers) encompasses the listener in waves of beautiful, feel-good vibes.

3.) Gemini ♊️
a.) Language I: Intuition by The Contortionist
- seamless transitions between dynamics
- contortionist - an entertainer who twists and bends their body into strange and unnatural positions
- I know a few Gemini dancers and gymnasts who can do impressive (and bizarre) things with their bodies
- intro lyrics: "Begin hyper-communication. Restore our vision of natural progression"
b.) Language II: Conspire
- At times, interacting with someone who has a lot of Gemini placements is like dealing with two people at once. This song is that other person.
This link is to both songs: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=xZKdCT-Fvak
4.) Cancer ♋️
a.) Mystic Queen by Camel
- the Moon is the Mystic Queen, riding in her limousine, over hills, and over dales 'til morning
https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=I8UarE4CzRc
b.) Moonspell by Liquid Visions
- When a person with prominent Cancer placements doesn't have their emotions under control the result is a bi-polar, erratic personality, more so during full moon (no offense 
I'll add that it is a beautiful/mystical/surreal thing to witness a Cancerian who is at peace during a full moon). This song's vibe captures the essence of that.

5.) Leo ♌️
a.) Devil Beat by Alex Hutchings
- One of my favorite guitarists showing off his insane skills. Leo-like guitar licks; very expressive and bold.
https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=-SyQ72Gg2YI
b.) Capoeira by Under Sun (Airbase Pres. Scarab Remix)
- Once you look past what appears to be arrogance in a Leo's personality, you'll see that they are just confident in their ability to express themselves without restraint, and enjoy every moment of it.
- A fun song that really settles into the Leo vibe at the 3:18 mark with the addition of the nice guitar loop.

6.) Virgo ♍️
a.) Sing For You by Nilu
- Virgo rules the 6th House, the domain of which includes work/service to others (among other things), so I found the song title fitting.
- The vocalist exemplifies excellent control over her voice and great technique; the subtle details make all the difference.
https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=aN1-lIZDEW8
b.) So Real by Jeff Buckley
- Jeff Buckley was a perfectionist (with a Mars-Uranus-Pluto stellium in Virgo).
- The song title "So Real" is a play on the word "surreal"; typical of Virgo energy to do with words.
- Once again an example of someone with superb command of the voice.

7.) Libra ♎️
a.) Sandy's Painting by Dave Beegle
- I don't have much to say on this one -- I just think its a beautiful song that captures the Libra spirit.
https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=5q_FfJDBC6g
b.) Primavera by Ludovico Einaudi (SizzleBird Remix)
- A well-balanced song from beginning to end; gives me a Libra vibe.
https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=u0zdSmqJrro
8.) Scorpio ♏️
a.) Purple by Crustation (J Dilla Remix)
- This song oozes Scorpio vibes.
- "Sitting in the silent twilight -- the purple half light of the twilight. Wrap the night around me; blanket of black on my back. I feel safe in the darkness."
https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=2PjYiLyEQRk
b.) Prideless by Natasha Kmeto
- Just listen.
https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=JUdarbZjScg
9.) Sagittarius ♐️
a.) Soul Chaser by Luminary Youth
- Sagittarius aims his mind's arrow higher and shoots it farther in his quest to find the soul's eternal, universal truths.
https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=w4GdP1qeWHM
b.) Hanazono by Jazzanova
- A cool song that gives me a sense of philosophical inquiry and the subsequent joy in discovering "the answer".
- I always feel optimistic after listening to this song.
https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=VfO0fT9Lzf8
10.) Capricorn ♑️
a.) Crystals by The Re-Stoned
- Crystals? Cardinal Earth
- a psychedelic blues song for the masters of cool vibes
https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=1V2-WhG8vvs
b.) Saturn by Sleeping at Last
https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=h3lWwMHFhnA&index=9&list=FLyjnPWdiBW7Lq2pV8UkhZ1g
11.) Aquarius ♒️
a.) The Moment by Tame Impala
- "“The Moment” focuses on going with the flow and living mindfully, but with the added element of learning to be impulsive and make crucial decisions when the time is right."
- Kevin Parker (mastermind behind Tame Impala) was born on January 20th, the Capricorn-Aquarius cusp.
https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=FPyWA-IhoDI
b.) Paralized by John and the Volta
- has a detached feeling to it; the lyrics and delivery give me an Aquarius vibe.
https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=ugbq_zN7qsY
12.) Pisces ♓️
a.) Closure by Opeth
- "Heal myself, a feather on my heart
Look inside, there never was a start
Peel myself, dispose of severed skin
All subsides, around me and within"
https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=DJzvWSEBaBs
b.) Breakdown by Nilu
- "I can hear my body breaking down
And it makes the most beautiful sound
And as I take you in, you take me out
I am finally found"
