Morning Prep & Headspace
Alright, first thing this morning? Grabbed my coffee – extra strong, black, no sugar – and plopped down at the kitchen table. Figured, since it’s Virgo season, might as well see what Susan Miller has cooking for us meticulous folks. Pulled up her site on my tablet, ya know, just casual browsing while the caffeine kicked in.
Diving Into The Virgo Forecast
Started scrolling through Susan Miller’s monthly rundown for Virgo. The headline kinda grabbed me: “Your Complete Guide for Success.” Sounds promising, right? Didn’t skim though – actually read it top to bottom, kinda like checking instructions twice before assembling IKEA furniture. Here’s the messy notes I scribbled down:
- Big Focus on Work & Routine: Susan was hammering this point HARD. Like, new projects popping up, gotta stay organized, don’t let the small stuff derail you. Basically, Virgo heaven. Or hell, depending on your inbox.
- Communication is Key (But Tricky): Mercury’s doing backflips or something mid-month. Her advice? Double-check emails, triple-check contracts, and maybe avoid signing anything major when Mercury’s playing games. Felt like she was side-eyeing my habit of firing off texts without proofreading.
- Money Moves (Careful Ones!): Saw Jupiter retrograde mentioned for finances. Her vibe? Not the time for wild bets or impulse buys. More like… review budgets, negotiate stuff you’re already paying for, chase down owed cash. Boring? Maybe. Smart? Definitely.
- Health Stuff Gets Real: Virgos and stress – classic combo. Susan basically prescribed “routine checkups, dummy.” And sleep. And maybe chill on the perfectionism for a sec. Ouch, but fair.
My Action Plan (The Attempt)
Felt pretty pumped after reading. Decided Susan Miller made sense. So here’s what I tried to implement, based purely on her planetary vibes:
- Work Desk Detox: Emptied everything off my desk – papers, half-dead pens, that weird sticky spot. Wiped it down proper. Then only put back the absolute essentials. It felt… weirdly satisfying, like deleting spam emails.
- Money App Deep Dive: Opened that budgeting app I usually ignore. Looked at my subscriptions – WHY am I paying for three music services? Cancelled two immediately. Also spotted an old invoice I forgot to chase. Sent a (polite but firm) email.
- Scheduled The Damn Checkup: Yep, finally called the doc. Appointment’s set for next week. Also blocked out time in my calendar labeled “ACTUAL RELAX?” Might just stare at the wall.
- Communication Lockdown: For anything remotely important? Drafting it first. Letting it sit. Proofreading. Twice. Maybe even reading it aloud. Feels slow, but fewer “OMG what did I send?!” moments.
Real Talk: How It Went (Hint: Not Perfect)
Look, following Susan Miller ain’t magic. That tidy desk? Lasted maybe a day and a half before the first coffee mug ring appeared. Chasing the invoice? Still waiting on that payment. The “relaxation” block? Got interrupted by a work call about a sudden deadline – Jupiter moving retrograde feels accurate for that curveball! But honestly? The feeling of starting this stuff, just taking those tiny practical steps Susan pushed, felt solid. Less chaotic energy swirling around. It’s like I got handed a map for the Virgo month-maze. Still bumping into walls sometimes, but fewer dead ends. That’s the Virgo success, right? Small, solid, unsexy wins. Gotta respect it.
