Alright Virgo squad, buckle up because October was a wild ride following that horoscope advice to the letter. Let me walk you through exactly what went down, no sugarcoating.
Step 1: Finding That Horoscope
First off, I hunted down that October Virgo forecast like my morning coffee depended on it. Scrolled through my usual apps late one Tuesday night, half-asleep, until I spotted it. Printed it out immediately – old school style – because sticky notes on my laptop screen ain’t cutting it anymore.
Money Stuff: Tightening Those Belts
The horoscope screamed “watch your cash flow!” like a warning label. So, here’s what I actually did:
- Signed up for that expense tracker app my friend nagged me about for months. Painfully logged every dang coffee and snack.
- Froze my “fun spending” card – wrapped it in tin foil like a leftover burrito and hid it in the freezer drawer behind the broccoli.
- Got weirdly brave and asked for that overdue project payment sitting in client limbo. Sent the invoice three times until they finally paid up – awkward but worked!
End result? Definitely saved way more than usual, but man, cutting back on impulse snacks felt like actual torture by week two.
Health Corner: Actually Moving My Body
Health advice basically yelled “get off your butt!” Loud and clear. Attempted this stuff:
- Tried morning yoga videos first week. Epic fail. Got tangled in my rug like a confused cat.
- Switched to just walking everywhere instead. Parked my car further away, did laps around the park during calls. Legs felt like lead weights for days.
- Drank water like it was my job – refilled my stupidly big bottle three times a day. Bathroom breaks became my new social life.
Verdict? More energy for sure, but zero yoga skills gained. My rug and I still have beef.
Love Life Rollercoaster
The love section said “put yourself out there!” Cue the awkwardness:
- Forced myself to accept a coffee invite from that friendly neighbor instead of just waving from behind my plants.
- Actually downloaded a dating app again. Chatted with three people, met one for coffee. Conversation drier than burnt toast – spilled coffee on myself during the “awkward exit.”
- Sent a risky ‘just thinking of you’ text to an old friend. Radio silence. Total mess.
Was it smooth? Hell no. Embarrassing? You bet. But hey, at least I stopped hiding behind my ficus.
So, Did It Work?
Following that whole list felt like juggling flaming torches sometimes. Wallet is definitely thicker, knees are less creaky, and the dating scene remains gloriously messy. Not some magic fix, but pushing myself to actually do the things instead of just reading them? That made a difference. Felt less stuck by Halloween. Virgo power, I guess? On to November’s chaos…
