So today I thought I’d finally organize all those chaotic, handwritten notes I’d been hoarding since mid-2014 – my attempt to predict Virgo’s whole year for 2015, month by month. Honestly? It was a mess back then. I grabbed my big, battered notebook with the coffee stain on the cover and started flipping through pages filled with tiny scribbles, astrological symbols I barely remembered the meaning of, and way too many question marks.
Starting The Grind
First thing I did was spread all my papers across the kitchen table – old diaries, printouts from weird astro forums I visited at 2 AM, even cocktail napkins with sudden “brilliant” ideas. My cat immediately jumped up, scattering everything. Not ideal. Once I shooed him away, I focused on January. What did I actually write last year about transits? Mercury Retrograde was a big red circle on my main chart photocopy. I remembered agonizing over communication mishaps for Virgos right after New Year’s. Probably projecting my own messiness, to be real.
The Monthly Breakdown Mess
Breaking it down month by month felt logical, so I started listing them:
- January: Mostly focused on Mercury going backwards messing with plans. Scribbled something like “Virgos double-check everything before hitting send! Chaos guaranteed.”
- February: Venus popped up a lot in my notes. I underlined “Financial caution? Romance needs patience?” like three times. Still couldn’t remember exactly why.
- March: This one had tons of crossings-out. Something about career energy with Jupiter but clashing with Saturn? My handwriting turned chaotic here. Might have been done after a very long day.
- April: Big notes about Mars stirring up family stuff. “Home front tensions?” I wrote, followed by “…or maybe just spring cleaning urges?” Clearly hedging my bets.
The Research Rabbit Hole & Writer’s Block
Trying to make sense of my own scribbles for July through October was pure frustration. The ink smeared in places, symbols overlapped, and my “insights” were super vague like “Social vibes shifting.” Helpful. I dug out ephemeris charts I printed ages ago, comparing planetary positions. Felt like decoding ancient runes. Honestly spent maybe an hour just staring at August, trying to remember why Jupiter moving into Virgo felt like a big deal for career then. Got a headache. Took a break, ate some cookies. Came back only slightly less confused.
Putting It Together (Kinda)
- May & June: More Mercury Retro warnings (obsessed much?) and notes about travel/learning. Wrote “Watch for impulsive decisions?”
- July to October: Eventually just wrote general stuff about relationship focus, hard work paying off slowly, and internal reflections. Felt safe.
- November & December: Relief at finally nearing the end! Summarized as wrapping up projects, holiday stresses, maybe some positive social stuff as Jupiter did its thing. Vague optimism.
After literally hours of wrestling with my own chaotic past self, I hammered out a semi-coherent month-by-month breakdown. Typed it up slowly, feeling utterly drained. Did I nail it? No clue. Was it based on solid, replicable astrological techniques? Probably not. It was me, desperately trying to connect planetary dots based on notes I barely understood anymore. My final takeaway? Predicting a whole year is ambitious, exhausting, and involves way too much guesswork. Would I trust these predictions now? Ha! Absolutely not. But hey, the process itself? That was… something. Might do it again someday, but definitely with better note-taking. Maybe.
