Man, I remember back in late 2017, heading into January 2018. I usually don’t get too wrapped up in horoscopes, you know? Like, I’d read them here and there, mostly just for a laugh or if someone forwarded me one. But Susan Miller, she’s different. People always talk her up, saying her stuff is super detailed, goes on forever, and usually hits home. So, I figured, what the heck. January 2018 was coming, felt like a fresh start, why not check out what she had to say for us Virgos?
I distinctly remember pulling up her site, finding the Virgo section. It was a monster, page after page. I poured myself a coffee and just started to wade through it. It wasn’t like those quick little blurbs you see in magazines. This was a full-on narrative. She was talking about opportunities, especially around career and money, big changes coming, maybe some travel, even some stuff about relationships. I remember her really hammering on the idea of new beginnings and using our analytical Virgo brains to sort through things.
I kinda chuckled to myself reading some of it, thinking, “Yeah, right. A big career break just pops up?” But a part of me was also like, “Okay, let’s see. Let’s just be aware.” So, for that whole month of January, I really tried to keep an open mind. I wasn’t actively chasing down every little prediction, but if something came up, I’d think back to what she’d written. Like, she mentioned something about a specific date being good for a financial move or a particular week for social gatherings.
It was wild, honestly. I wasn’t looking for a new job, really happy where I was. But then, midway through the month, an old colleague reached out, completely out of the blue, about a project. It wasn’t a job offer, but a major freelance gig. And the money? Really good. It just kind of fell into my lap. I was like, “Whoa, did Susan Miller just predict this?” I even went back and re-read parts of her article, trying to pinpoint if she’d actually said something specific enough to cover it. She didn’t say “a freelance gig with an old colleague,” obviously, but the general vibe of “unexpected financial gain from your network” was definitely in there.
Then, another thing. She talked about maybe a quick trip or needing to communicate more with siblings or close relatives. My brother, who I hadn’t properly talked to in ages, suddenly started messaging me a lot. He needed some advice on something, and we ended up reconnecting in a big way. We even talked about a potential road trip later in the year, which really surprised me. It wasn’t a “trip” yet, but the seed was planted, and it felt like that communication piece she mentioned.
What I Learned from All That
By the end of January, I was scratching my head, honestly. It wasn’t like every single thing she wrote came true, word for word. That’s just ridiculous. But the general themes, the energy she predicted around certain areas of life for Virgos, they really resonated. It made me realize that maybe these horoscopes aren’t about specific, dramatic events, but more about setting an intention or just being more aware of opportunities that align with those themes. It was like she painted a picture of the general weather, and I suddenly noticed the clouds gathering, or the sun shining, in a way I wouldn’t have otherwise. It was a good month, full of unexpected little wins, and it definitely made me look at those long, rambling Susan Miller horoscopes a bit differently after that. It was less about concrete predictions and more about a gentle nudge to stay open to possibilities.
