Okay so yesterday I saw this astrology meme floating around about Virgo rising with Gemini midheaven people having these super specific career vibes. Honestly? Sounded bonkers but I figured why not test-drive it myself this week. Spoiler alert: weirdly spot-on in some places.
Getting Started
First I pulled up my actual birth chart on that free site everyone uses. Yep, confirmed – Virgo rising staring back at me with Gemini sitting pretty at the top (midheaven thing). Felt kinda basic doing that but hey, gotta verify. The meme claimed three big things for career:
- You gotta juggle multiple plates (Gemini energy)
- Details will save or destroy you (Virgo rising showing up)
- Communicating clearly is your golden ticket (Hello again, Gemini)
Made me raise an eyebrow, honestly. Like, who doesn’t need communication?
Putting It to Work
So Tuesday rolls in. My manager throws two new projects on my plate on top of the quarterly report deadline Friday. Normally that internal panic button smashes hard. This time I remembered the meme’s “juggling” thing. Decided to lean into it instead of freaking out.
Laid out EVERYTHING sticky-note style on my desk like a crazy person. Grouped tiny tasks together (Virgo detail-mode) then tackled them in quick bursts, totally switching gears fast (Gemini style). Honestly felt messy, but somehow… it worked? Finished more than I thought I would.
Then came Wednesday’s team meeting. We were stuck going in circles about the Q3 strategy. That “clear communication” bit pinged in my brain. Normally I’d over-polish my thoughts to perfection (Virgo!), wasting time. This time? Nope. Just stood up, shot out the two options raw, called the key trade-offs plain as day. Boom. Decision made in like 3 minutes. Got actual nods instead of confused stares.
The Weirdest Part
Friday afternoon. Exhausted but buzzing. My boss actually came over and said, “How do you make switching between chaos and spreadsheets look easy?” Laughed awkwardly. Didn’t tell her about my secret astrology test-drive obviously. But come on.
Overall? Still think astrology memes are mostly fluff. BUT trying those specific traits on purpose felt like using cheat codes I didn’t know I had. Would I bet my career on my chart? Hell no. Will I steal that multitasking strategy again? Absolutely.
Weird week. Might poke around another placement next month. Maybe that Venus thing people talk about…
