Alright so here’s how today played out. Woke up scrolling through Virgo memes – typical morning ritual – when I stumbled on that viral post about lucky colors changing daily. Skeptical? Yep. But hey, curiosity got me. Grabbed my dusty journal and a half-dried purple marker (closest thing handy) to scribble down the idea: Test drive Virgo’s “lucky color” TODAY and see if it vibes. Coffee spilled on the page. Typical. Blotted it with my sleeve. Off to a great start.
The “Research” Phase (AKA Googling in Pajamas)
Plonked back on the couch, phone in one hand, toast in the other. Typed “Virgo lucky color today” like a madwoman. Results? Pure chaos. One site screamed forest green, another insisted deep teal, a third tried to sell me “mystic jade” crystals. Gave up and picked teal ’cause my favorite scarf kinda looked teal-ish. Good enough. Science!
Opened my wardrobe. Biggest revelation? I own zero actual teal clothing. Zip. Nada. That mossy green cardigan from 2018? Close-ish. Grabbed it. Pulled out accessories: an old turquoise pendant, a cheap blue ring that kinda looks green in dim light. Found faded blue socks. Boom. Teal-ish ensemble. Assembly complete.
The Experiment Rollout
Walked the dog wearing the “teal” gear. Felt slightly ridiculous. Did the universe throw cash at me? No. But Old Man Jenkins did compliment the cardigan for the first time ever. Weird. Noted that down.
Worked from home (still wearing the socks, very professional). Felt unusually focused – cleared my inbox backlog, finished a draft I’d been avoiding for days. Coincidence? Maybe. Good vibes? Maybe. Wore the ring to the grocery store later. Clerk handed me a scratch-off ticket stuck to my receipt. Won $5. FIVE DOLLARS! Laughed out loud right there by the bananas. Documented that IMMEDIATELY in my notes app.
Finished the day video-calling my sister. She immediately asked, “Why do you look… brighter?” Didn’t mention the color thing, just smiled. Could be placebo effect? Totally. But the energy shift? Palpable.
Final Notes & The Messy Truth
Was the “lucky color” pure magic? Nah. Did my belief in trying something playful shift my actions and mindset? Absolutely. The results surprised me:
- Random compliment ✅
- $5 scratcher win ✅
- Productivity boost ✅
- Noticeable mood lift ✅
Takeaway? Don’t overthink it. Roll with the weird, fun vibes. Grab that “lucky” color – whatever shade you interpret it as. Wear it consciously. Pay attention. Action + Intention creates ripples. Even tiny ones. Mine involved banana displays and $5.
Worth it? Heck yes. Trying tomorrow’s color. Whatever it is.
