So last Monday I was scrolling through Twitter feeling totally overwhelmed. My schedule was packed, my inbox looked like a war zone, and I spilled coffee on my favorite shirt. Typical Virgo mess. Remembered this Virgo weekly horoscope thing I bookmarked months ago. Figured I’d give it a shot before deleting my whole calendar.
Digging Up The Horoscope
Had to search through like 50 browser tabs to find that astrology site again. Scrolled past ads for tarot readings until I spotted the 2023 Virgo weekly predictions section. Copied all the advice into my notes app:
- Sort your physical space first thing Monday morning
- Block out solo work hours on Tuesday/Wednesday
- Say “no” to extra requests on Thursday
- Schedule something purely fun for Friday afternoon
Putting It Into Action
Woke up Monday and immediately attacked my disaster of a desk. Threw out old receipts, untangled charger cables, even wiped down my keyboard. Took 45 minutes but wow – breathing felt easier after that.
Then I went full dictator with my calendar on Tuesday. Blocked two solid hours with notifications off. Actually finished a project that’d been hanging over me for weeks. Felt so good I did it again Wednesday.
Thursday tested me hard though. Coworker asked for help with their report – my usual Virgo people-pleasing reflex kicked in. But I remembered the horoscope’s “no” advice and said “Can I look at it next week?” They didn’t even blink. Mind. Blown.
Friday rolled around and I almost skipped the fun part because “too busy.” But at 3PM I actually walked to the park and just sat watching squirrels. No phone, no agenda. Felt ridiculous until I realized my shoulders weren’t touching my ears anymore.
Did This Horoscope Stuff Actually Work?
Honestly? Yeah kinda. By Friday night my stress levels felt way lower than usual. Didn’t magically solve all my problems – still found 37 unread emails waiting – but something shifted. That advice about physical space clearing mental clutter? Legit. The “no” thing? Game changer.
Weirdest part was how obvious the tips were. Like I knew all this stuff already, but seeing it as “Virgo advice” somehow made me actually do it. Maybe because it matched our perfectionist tendencies.
Gonna try this again next week but with adjustments. Might swap squirrel-watching for actual human interaction. Wonder if that horoscope has dating tips…
