So this morning I woke up thinking about my Virgo love life – typical overanalyzing mind already buzzing before coffee. Grabbed my phone, scrolled through a couple astrology apps, just skimming the daily Virgo love predictions like I always do. Saw some stuff about communication being key today, which honestly made me sigh. Virgos always hear “communicate more,” right? Feels repetitive.
The Plan & Setup
Decided to actually do something about it instead of just reading and forgetting. Went old-school. Dug out my favorite notebook – the slightly battered one with coffee stains – and a purple pen (purple for intuition, my little quirk). Figured I’d write down the main points the apps were pushing:
- Speak your truth clearly (no Virgo vagueness or assuming others read minds)
- Listen actively (put the dang phone down when partner talks)
- Small thoughtful actions > big empty words (classic Virgo practicality)
The Actual Practice
Partner walked in while I was scribbling. Caught me mid-astrology nerd session. Usually I’d awkwardly hide it, feeling silly. But today? Took a breath and actually told them: “Hey, reading some Virgo love stuff, says I gotta talk clearer and listen better today. Trying to figure out how.” Felt weirdly vulnerable admitting it! Partner just chuckled, “Alright, Virgo, let’s hear it.”
So we talked properly over breakfast. Like, actually talked. I put my phone face down. Didn’t jump in with solutions when they mentioned work stress – just nodded, asked “And how did that make you feel?” (Felt super unnatural, but I did it!). Later, instead of just saying “Love ya” while rushing out, I actually did a tiny thing I knew they’d appreciate – refilled their coffee thermos without being asked. Virgo-style service love in action.
Ended the day jotting down notes again. Did the talking/listening thing feel smooth? Nope, felt stiff. But partner later mentioned noticing the effort and seeming more “present.” The tiny action? They absolutely noticed and gave me that “aww” look. So even if talking clearly felt like pulling teeth, it worked somehow. Proof that doing the awkward Virgo communication stuff pays off. Still feels like homework, though. Who else finds this love horoscope practice stuff exhausting but weirdly effective?
