Taylor Swift Albums as Months

 

What month best represents each of Taylor's twelve albums? 


Taylor swift (Self-Titled) #1:

March. 

Birth, Spring. Pisces is reflective and contemplative, yet eternally hopeful like young Taylor's writing. 


Fearless #2:

May. 

Sunny, new, and fresh. Many accolades and fans. Taylor was really hitting her stride career-wise. Taurus is security & money. 


Speak now #3

July. 

Fireworks. July 9. Cancer is emotional and Taylor wrote this whole album by herself and from the heart. Cancers, and Taylor at this time period can anger/cry quickly. 


Red #4

Sept. 

Of course. Autumn. Breakups. Virgo is perfectionism & details, and virginal. 


1989 #5

Dec. 

I had originally placed 1989 in Jan for new beginnings. But December is new beginnings for Taylor, being her b-day month. This album has optimism and hope like people display at Christmas time. . Sagittarius is new travels and freedom, learning, truth... And of course that party sound and vibe.


Reputation #6

Oct. 

This era was a departure for Taylor, and her family-friendly, vanilla image. This persona with the black, and snakes was fleeting and more like a costume. So of course Halloween month embodies that. Also, the secret love story inside the album speaks to Libra's relational and loving spirit. 


Lover #7

June. 

This is another obvious one. Gay-Pride month & weddings. Momentary warmth and golden sunshine and lapse in responsibility. Month for protests & picnics. Gemini flits from 1 mindset to other matches the schizophrenic track-list. 


Folklore  #8

Aug. 

August the song. The sun. The month of homeroom & school starting, but also the earliest fall weather. Leo is entertaining and so are Taylor's fictional characters and events braided through this album.


Evermore #9

Feb. 

Most depressing & dreary month. Both the album and the month are sad and gray and long. 


Midnights #10

Jan. 

I Switched this w/Dec for Taylor. To look forward and make resolutions you have to look back. And this album looks back at nights through Taylor's life. The month has short, dark days, and there is a thread of darkness throughout this album. Also, Capricorn is serious, and Taylor is serious about her Eras tour, her masters, and putting her plan, and her persona series in motion. Taylor is all work during this time, just like Capricorn lives to reach goals.


TTPD #11

Nov. 

Scorpio. Deep, sexual, and passionate. There are many songs, reaching inward and looking in depth at everything. It's also dreary like the fall heading into winter, days getting shorter and darker. Weather getting colder.


TLOAS #12

April. 

April fools & jokes. Satirical nature of the album goes along with the 'gotcha!' holiday. And it's a short month & album. April brings rain showers, and there is water symbolism, especially in The Fate of Ophelia. Aries is self-absorbed, aggressive, and action just like Taylor's Showgirl persona.


Agree or disagree? Did I get it right? What would you rearrange?
