Capricorns are known for their ambition and strong will. They don’t quit even when the going gets tough, which makes them loyal and supportive to their group of friends. So, it makes perfect sense for this determined star sign to be Lawyer Barbie (played by Sharon Rooney.) Capricorns may be prone to arguments, but it’s only because they are persistent, so who else for Barbie to turn to in times of trouble than her trusty Capricorn lawyer friend, who can advise her with pragmatism and sensitivity? Capricorns love using their methodical brains to figure out tricky puzzles, and Lawyer Barbie is sure to be on the case when things start going wrong in Barbie Land.   

Aquarius (January 20 - February 17): Physicist Barbie

For the zodiac sign that always puts their smarts to good use to make the world a better place, what better Barbie than the Barbie with a Nobel prize in physics (played by Emma Mackey)? Barbie has always been known to celebrate breaking down barriers for women, especially in STEM fields like science. So, she perfectly matches the independent and analytical mind of an Aquarius, who loves to figure out how things work and think outside the box. With such a smart scientist by her side, Barbie is sure to appreciate the original and charitable nature of her Aquarius friend.

Pisces (February 18 - March 19): Celebrated Author Barbie

Pisces, in all their soulful and compassionate spirit, love learning from other people and using their imagination. With their head in the clouds, Pisces could probably come up with some creative and thoroughly engrossing stories. So, Pisces would be Celebrated Author Barbie (played by Alexandra Shipp). They are romantic and spiritual, attuned to the world and indulgent, which is everything you need to find success as an author. Celebrated Author Barbie is dreamy and always thinking about how to turn reality into the plot of her next novel, and she’s sure to have plenty of ideas about Barbie’s situation in Barbie Land.

Aries (March 20 - April 19): President Barbie

There’s no other Barbie that comes to mind when thinking about the competitive and often hot-headed Aries than President Barbie. President Barbie (played by Issa Rae) reflects the political passion of the Barbie dolls, as they have run for office multiple times (two Barbies even ran on an all-female ticket for president and vice president in 2016), which perfectly aligns with the driven and outspoken nature of this fire sign. As much as Aries love attention and showcasing their courageous attitudes, they also care a lot about others, which makes them the perfect star sign to take on the presidency in Barbie Land. Aries are very natural-born leaders who love taking charge, and every president needs a little bit of that fire behind them to lead a whole nation.

Taurus (April 20 - May 20): Midge

Tauruses care very deeply about all aspects of their life. They can be gentle and patient at times, but also stubborn and strong-willed. Who else, then, is better suited for motherhood than Taurus’s as Barbie’s pregnant friend, Midge (Emerald Fennell). The doll, complete with a bulging belly, was pulled from shelves in 2003, but the persistent characteristics of this doll make her a great friend to Barbie. A Taurus appreciates the good life, prioritizing comfort and the pleasures of the material world, so they know the right way to bring a child into the world with love and care. There's no greater comforting presence for Barbie as she stresses about mortality and existence than her trusty Taurus friend, Midge.

Gemini (May 21 - June 20): Diplomat Barbie

Thinking about Geminis, words that come to mind include smart, opportunistic, and curious. All of that makes them super interesting people who love to learn about the world. Diplomat Barbie (Nicola Coughlan) needs to know how to talk to people and keep the peace, and Geminis are perfect at adapting to unique situations and thinking fast. The youthful zodiac sign also loves to talk to people, which makes them outgoing and fun. The original Diplomat Barbie was actually based on Julie Bishop, the first woman to serve as Australia’s Minister of Foreign Affairs who was also known for prioritizing and loving fashion. Who else to juggle foreign affairs than the star sign that knows how to keep problem-solving fun and flirty.

Cancer (June 21 - July 21): Doctor Barbie

When it comes to getting the best healthcare in Barbie Land, there’s no doubt that you would want a Cancer on your side. The passionate and caring Cancer knows how to be loyal and sympathetic to friends and patients alike. Doctor Barbie (played by Hari Nef) helps Barbie out when she starts noticing weird changes in Barbie Land, and she needs an intuitive doctor who will do her best to help. Cancers are also known for being sentimental and occasionally attention-seeking as a friend, but when you need a check-up, there’s no doubt they will be there for you. You wouldn't want anyone else to celebrate the accomplishments of female doctors than the loving Cancer star sign.

Leo (July 22 - August 22): Mermaid Barbie

Lovers of performance and taking charge, Leos make the perfect Mermaid Barbie. With a flair for the dramatic, Leos typically enjoy being the star of the show, which matches perfectly with popstar Dua Lipa’s blue-haired Barbie role. She’s vivacious and over-the-top, sociable and confident. As the only mermaid in a land of career-focused dolls, there’s no wonder Mermaid Barbie feels a need to stand out. Also, Dua is actually a Leo herself, and she’s the perfect representation of what it means to have the zodiac sign. There's nobody better to share a star sign with than the charmingly cool and talented Mermaid Barbie.

Virgo (August 23 - September 22): Pulitzer Prize Barbie

Virgos hold themselves to high standards and care about the small details to make everything perfect. Yet, while they may be stressing on the inside, Virgos still come across as modest and effortless. When it comes to Pulitzer Prize Barbie, the devil is in the details. Journalists need to be attentive and explorative while still making sure the final product looks perfect. So, Virgos are the perfect fit for Pulitzer Prize Barbie (played by Ritu Arya). They also love gossip and entertainment, and all journalists with a Pulitzer Prize are just a little nosy for the tea in order to get a hard-hitting story. If anyone is on the case of what is going on in Barbie Land, it’s a Virgo.

Libra (September 23 - October 22): Ken Barbie

She’s everything. And he’s just Ken. Ken (Ryan Gosling) wants to be the best version of himself around Barbie, often changing his look to appeal to her most. Libra are some of the best at knowing how to fit in, no matter who, when, or where. Libras also dislike chaos and disorder, which makes them very perceptive. It’s no wonder Ken was so attuned to the changes in Barbie’s world— he was thinking like a classic Libra. In the movie, Ken also questions his own unique identity outside of Barbie, and Libras can often lose sight of their own needs and desires when they focus so much on appealing to others. He’s just Ken, but he can be so much more, and there’s no better star sign to grapple with that than the fair and idealist Libra.

Scorpio (October 23 - November 21): Splits Barbie

You can’t ignore a Scorpio—they are known to have a magnetic presence and strong character. What that sometimes means, though, is that they cover up a darkness really underneath. When Barbie looks for a doll with answers about what’s going on in Barbie Land, Kate McKinnon's mysterious Barbie (who is always in the splits) seems to have been through it to tell the tale. From the mangled limbs to messy hair and colorful marker scribbles, there’s no doubt that she has the fearlessness of a Scorpio. Scorpio’s like a little danger, so they’re the most likely to get themselves tangled up in a couple of Crayola markers and a pair of scissors. But, they also care about protecting others, so this doll is the perfect confidante for Barbie.

Sagittarius (November 22 - December 20): Barbie

And, who else to be the titular Barbie character played by Margot Robbie, the doll that does it all, than the energetic and adventurous Sagittarius? This star sign is known for spontaneity and a sense of exploration, most likely to embark on a crazy adventure outside of Barbie Land to discover the real world. While their optimism may lead to doubting initial signs, like flat feet and falling out of their Malibu home, they aren’t afraid to speak their mind when something feels wrong. Barbie deeply ponders what is going on, and when mentally unraveling the mystery doesn’t work out, she’s ready to take on an adventure and leave what she knows. Just like Sagittarians, Barbie is lively and breezy, but also philosophical and thoughtful. I mean, she really is everything.
