So this Virgo weekly thing popped up on my feed, right? Elle UK’s take on what we Virgos should expect. Normally I’d scroll past, but hey, was feeling a bit off-kilter this Monday morning. Coffee hadn’t kicked in, inbox overflowing. Thought maybe some cosmic guidance wouldn’t hurt. Figured it’d be a quick peek.
Grabbed my phone, scrolled till I found the Virgo section. Started skimming. Okay, first point: Career and Money – “Financial opportunities arise.” Hold up. My immediate reaction? Panic. Did I forget an invoice? Was a client about to ghost payment? Tore through my emails, checked the bank app, nada. Zilch. Spent a good twenty minutes stressing over non-existent money problems before realizing it probably just meant… be open? Maybe? Ugh.
My Attempted Execution
Right, practice time. Decided to focus on the work advice. It mentioned something vague like “Collaboration is key this week.” Fine. My usual solo groove wasn’t working anyway. Tuesday, forced myself to ping a colleague about that project I’d been hoarding. Actually scheduled a call for Thursday. Felt like pulling teeth, but I did it. Marked it in the calendar like a proper adult.
Then came the Personal Life bit: “Clarity in relationships emerges after honest talks.” Cue the awkwardness. Wednesday night, my partner casually mentioned wanting to try a new restaurant over the weekend. My stressed-out Virgo brain malfunctioned. “Is THIS the clarity?” “Is he trying to tell me something deeper?” Ended up blurting out, “Wait, is this about more than sushi?” He just stared. “We haven’t had good sushi in ages?” Oh. Right. Over-analysis: Virgo superpower AND curse. Managed a semi-normal chat about his stressful week instead. Baby steps.
How It Actually Went Down
By Friday? Total system overload.
- The Money “Opportunity”: Remembered an old client owed a small amount. Followed up. Got paid. Cosmic win? Or just basic admin?
- That collaboration call? It happened. Got some useful input. Also added three new action items to my list. Thanks, universe.
- The “relationship clarity”? Still waiting. Unless figuring out he hates salmon skin counts.
- It also hinted at “Needing rest.” Accurate. Friday night? Totally crashed. Put on old PJs. Ate cereal for dinner. Textbook Virgo burnout.
Why It Didn’t Smooth Out:
Final takeaway? Reading it gave me a slight nudge to act – made the call, sent the invoice reminder. Helpful? Maybe. Predictive? Nah. More like throwing spaghetti at the cosmic wall and seeing what sticks. Ended the week more tired than inspired, honestly. Next time? Might just stick to coffee and my own messy to-do list. Less pressure.
