Watch: Taylor Swift Fans Spot Easter Eggs in 33rd Birthday Post

Once upon a time, the planets and the fates and all the stars aligned. 

Taylor Swift released her long-anticipated music video for "Lavender Haze" on Jan. 26 and there's a new Easter egg that has fans in a spiral.

In a now-viral tweet, fans pointed out the sly reference Taylor made to her boyfriend Joe Alwyn, by including the constellations for their zodiac signs, Sagittarius and Pisces. (Taylor turned 33 on Dec. 13 and Joe will celebrate his 32nd birthday on Feb. 21).

T.Swift's nod to her longtime love is the latest tongue-in-cheek tribute from the superstar singer—and fans can't help but share their excitement.

One Swiftie wrote, "Joe is a Pisces and Taylor is a Sagittarius… what if I told you Taylor's a mastermind."

Another user pointed out another theory she had about the new video, writing, "And the fish in space!! Pisces = the fish of the zodiac."

Taylor has previously shared how the lyrics of this song mirror her desire to protect the privacy of her relationship.

"I happened upon the phrase lavender haze when I was watching Mad Men," the Grammy winner noted in an Oct. 7 Instagram video. "And I looked it up—because I thought it sounded cool—and it turns out that it's a common phrase used in the ‘50s where they would just describe being in love. Like, if you were in the lavender haze, then that meant you were in that all-encompassing love glow. And I thought that was really beautiful."

She went on to share how being in the public eye can make maintaining a relationship all the more difficult.

"I guess, theoretically, when you're in the lavender haze, you'll do anything to stay there and not let people bring you down off that cloud," Taylor continued. "And I think a lot of people have to deal with this now, not just like 'public figures,' because we live in the era of social media. And if the world finds out that you're in love with somebody, they're going to weigh in on it."

Taylor—who has been dating Joe since 2016—then referenced how her own relationship has dealt with outside influences.

"Like my relationship for six years, we've had to dodge weird rumors, tabloid stuff and we just ignore it," she added. "And so this song is sort of about the act of ignoring that stuff to protect the real stuff."
