So today I wanted to dive into Astro Velida’s weekly forecast for Virgo – heard good things, figured why not? Grabbed my stuff: journal, phone, that pendulum I impulse-bought ages ago, and my lucky moonstone. Felt kinda silly, honestly, but commitment, right?
First thing: found their page. Took some scrolling past sparkly ads and random zodiac memes. Seriously, why do those sites look like a unicorn exploded? Finally landed on the Virgo section. My eyes almost glazed over reading the intro – so many “cosmic alignments” and “energetic shifts.” Bleh. Got to the good stuff:
- Work stuff next week: Claimed my “meticulous nature” would be noticed by higher-ups. Hah! Mostly my boss notices when I refill the coffee pot.
- Love vibes: Suggested a “past connection might resurface.” Immediately thought of Dave from accounting who still owes me $10 for pizza. Not sure that counts.
- Health tip: Said to “ground myself” with earth energy. Okay, literal interpretation… so I walked barefoot in the backyard for like 3 minutes. Grass was wet. Feet got dirty. Felt mildly ridiculous.
Then the pendulum part. Held it over my journal like the instructions said years ago. Asked aloud, “Should I actually listen to this love prediction thing?” Thing wobbled like crazy. Couldn’t tell if it meant “heck no” or “you’re holding me wrong.” Probably both. Gave up and poured another coffee instead.
Finished by scribbling notes in my journal – not magical insights, just practical bits. “Be extra organized with the Thompson report Monday. Maybe email Dave about the pizza money.” The grounding thing? Translated to “Actually take lunch break outside, maybe eat a salad.” Way more useful than cosmic vibrations.
Overall take? Astro Velida’s Virgo stuff was… fine. Some bits weirdly accurate (boss does love spreadsheets), others pure fantasy (Dave bringing romance instead of soggy $10 bills). Worth the hour? Sure, sparked some actual reflection. But mostly? Glad I had backup coffee. Virgos like stuff we can actually do, ya know? Took the vibe, ditched the fluff.
