Based on themes of authenticity, partying, and finding a third-space community, the album 'BRAT' has brought us all together. However, which element of Brat summer do you embody, based on zodiac sign and song? Read for your Sun , Moon , and Rising signs .
What Song Title on 'BRAT' Represents Your Zodiac Sign?
Aries - Von Dutch
Von Dutch is a cult classic song on the 'BRAT' album. In its lyrics, Charli XCX addresses a hater directly. Rather than show insecurity, she fiercely lets her frenemy know who the actual icon is. She points out that they envy her status and talents to manage the gossip behind her back. Like a fiery, assertive Aries , you don't want to cross this singer. She might make a pop hot coming at you! If you have an issue, this fire sign needs to be directly addressed, just like Charli.
"It's okay to just admit that you're jealous of me; You're obsessin', just confess it 'cause it's obvious; I'm your number one, I'm your number one"
Taurus - Club Classics
In Club Classics, Charli XCX pays homage to her favorite pop icons. She shares her love for dancing under the nightlife party scene and lists the tracks she hopes the DJ plays. Naturally, she also includes herself as an idol. Taurus is the zodiac sign associated with classic and timeless music, art, and fashion. They like the tried and true approach, much like the energy of Club Classics on 'BRAT'.
"When I go to the club, I wanna hear those club classics; Yeah, I wanna dance to me, I wanna dance to A. G; I wanna dance with George, I wanna dance to SOPHIE; I wanna dance to HudMo"
Gemini - Talk talk
In Talk Talk, Charli XCX shares her longing for clarity with a potential romantic partner. The song talks about her running into a secret lover at a party. She wishes her crush could be direct about their feelings towards the singer-songwriter, yet they both lack the initiative to be vulnerable. Naturally, Gemini is associated with communication and anxious-avoidant tendencies and deserves association with this piece of 'BRAT.'
"I think you're getting closer; 'Cause I've been getting nervous; I wish you'd talk, talk; Wish you'd talk, talk; Wish you'd just talk to me"

Cancer - Rewind
The song "Rewind" discusses nostalgic reflections on the singer-songwriter's past. Before her rise to fame, she lived a simpler life. Sometimes, she misses the little things, like painting her toenails in her bedroom while burning CDs of her favorite tracks. Now, she feels more insecure about being perceived for her weight and looks and the natural insecurities of being in the public limelight. Cancer is a reflective Water sign, constantly daydreaming and romanticizing the past. Therefore, they take the cake with this hit off of 'BRAT.'
"Sometimes I just wanna rewind; Used to burn CDs full of songs I didn't know; Used to sit in my bedroom, puttin' polish on my toes; Recently, I've been thinkin' 'bout a way simpler time; Sometimes I really think it would be cool to rewind"
Leo - 360
Being a Leo queen herself, Charli XCX shows off her fiery energy in the hit 360. Sassy, confident, and proud, this is arguably one of the most popular, fun, and dance-friendly songs off of 'BRAT.' This zodiac is the star of the show and the life of the party. This feel-good masterpiece makes everyone sing out loud and feel themselves, just like a life-giving Leo.
"Yeah, 360; When you're in the mirror, do you like what you see?; When you're in the mirror, you're just looking at me; I'm everywhere, I'm so Julia"
Virgo - I think about it all the time
On this track, Charli XCX gets honest with her audience. Introspective and reflective, "I Think About It All the Time" talks about the singer's inner thoughts around potential motherhood and building a family. She reflects on her values and whether fame, fortune, and public adoration will fulfill her soul. Virgo is a mature, practical, and thoughtful philosopher, seeking to remain true to their innermost needs. Charli channels the constant wheels turning in Virgo's mind in the song title alone.
"'Cause my career feels so small in the existential scheme of it all; I think about it all the time"

Libra - Everything is romantic
Libra , the star sign of devotion, takes the title of 'Everything is romantic' by a long shot. On this track, the singer-songwriter lists all the small things she romanticizes as she experiences a hopeful world. She falls in love again and again with life within little moments, with her rose-colored glasses guiding her toward sweet gratitude and sentiments, just like a sweetheart, romantic Libra.
"Early nights in white sheets with lace curtains; Pompeii in the distance; In a place that can make you change; Fall in love again and again; Fall in love again and again"
Scorpio - Guess
The most taboo, sexy song off 'BRAT' naturally goes to mysterious Scorpio . Scorpios are known for their blunt, direct, yet alluring approach. On this track, Charli XCX flirts with her crush, asking them to guess the color of her underwear. In subtle and explicit language, the singer-songwriter teases and seduces her crush with a hyper-pop, club-worthy dance track.
"You wanna guess the color of my underwear; You wanna know what I got going on down there; Is it pretty in pink or all see-through?; Is it showing off my brand new lower back tattoo?"
Sagittarius - Apple
On this song, Charli XCX talks about the overwhelming realizations that come with reflecting upon inherited trauma. Being philosophical and symbolic, she talks about her recognition that hurt people hurt people and has come from all generations of pain passed onto them. While she's understanding, on the one hand, it still makes her want to run away from herself and others to avoid getting further hurt. Like a Sagittarius , she wants to book it to the airport and free herself from the potential trauma that resurfaces within relationships and love.
"I think the apple's rotten right to the core; From all the things passed down; From all the apples coming before; I split the apple down symmetrical lines; And what I find is kinda scary; Makes me just wanna drive"

Capricorn - Girl, so confusing
On this track, the singer-songwriter confesses the competitive strain of being a female pop artist. 'Girl, so confusing' is a literal title - the song talks about how confusing it is to be a girl. Frenemies, where you're not sure if they support you or are truly jealous, are too common. While this is a universal experience for most, Capricorns experience this issue often. As ambitious leaders, they can easily intimidate others and bring up their insecurities, leading this Earth sign to feel isolated and misunderstood.
"We talk about making music; But I don't know if it's honest; Can't tell if you wanna see me; Falling over and failing; And you can't tell what you're feeling;I think I know how you feel; Girl, it's so confusing sometimes to be a girl"
Aquarius - Hello goodbye
'Hello goodbye' talks about self-sabotage. Charli XCX wishes she was more openhearted and receptive to the person she admires attempting to make a bond with her. While she wanted to say hello, she closed the door and said goodbye. She reflects with regret on her avoidant moment. Aquarius often deals with this dilemma. While they crave connection, their fear of losing emotional control or vulnerability can lead them to lean into detachment.
"My heart began to rise; I'm freaking quietly, so silently (ooh); I said, "Goodbye" before you came; I turned around and ran away; I was too scared, I should have said; "Hello, hello, hello, hello, hello, hello"
Pisces - Sympathy is a knife
In this track, Charli XCX gets vulnerable about a girl who taps on her insecurities. She can't help but feel envy that she cannot control. She wishes she didn't feel judgmental or in competition with her, but she can't help it. The compassion, warmth, and sympathy this girl gives her feels like a knife and further frustrates her. This song represents Pisces . Being a compassionate Water sign, they often try to internalize their feelings to get along with others, even those they dislike.
"All this sympathy is just a knife; Why I can't even grit my teeth and lie?;I feel all these feelings I can't control."
