Okay so last weekend I was scrolling through some random stuff online, totally bored, and this headline pops up: “Is horoscope for Virgo 2020 monthly accurate?” With that “Discover expert insights now” tacked on the end. Honestly rolled my eyes a bit, you know? But hey, curiosity got the better of me, and since I’m a Virgo myself, figured why not dive in and actually test it out, for real. Keep a proper record and see if any of it actually stuck.
Step 1: Digging Up the Old Predictions
First thing I did was hit up my laptop. Opened up my ancient bookmarks folder, the one marked “2020 Random Crap”. Yep, still had some astrology sites saved. Started pulling up the monthly Virgo predictions from back then. January to December, month by month. Some sites were gone, vanished into the internet ether. Others were still hanging around. Had to use the Wayback Machine for a couple, that felt like archaeology! Found summaries for most months, things like “Career breakthroughs possible!” or “Watch finances mid-month”. Typical vague stuff, but I wrote down the key points they promised for each month.
Step 2: The Memory Lane Trip (With Receipts)
Next up was the hard part: remembering what actually happened to me back in 2020. Yeah, that dumpster fire of a year! Thank goodness I’m a Virgo who keeps records. I cracked open:
- My 2020 Bullet Journal: Found it buried in a drawer. Flipped through all the messy pages – mood trackers, daily logs, work stuff.
- Old Calendar Entries: Checked my Google Calendar history for meetings, trips (the few there were!), deadlines.
- Photos & Texts: Scrolled through my phone pics from 2020 and skimmed old message threads. Jogged a lot of memories, mostly bad hair days and stressing!
Took me hours, honestly, to piece together a month-by-month timeline of what actually went down in my life. Wrote it all down next to the horoscope promises for each month.
Step 3: The Big Comparison Smackdown
This is where the rubber met the road. Sat down with my two lists side-by-side – the “expert insights” predictions and my documented reality.
January 2020: Horoscope said “great time for career moves!” My reality? Stuck in a dead-end project feeling frustrated. Nope.
June 2020: Predicted “romantic surprises” or “social connections bloom”. My reality? Lockdown loneliness, video calls only. Zero romance. Big fat nope.
September 2020: One promised “financial stability increases” or “wise investments pay off.” I remember that month clearly – unexpected car repair wiped out my savings cushion. Absolutely not.
Here’s the thing – sure, I spotted one or two things that kinda-sorta aligned. Like in March, one prediction mentioned “focus on health routines”. Well, guess what? That was the month I finally got serious about those home workout videos because the gyms closed! But was that the prediction? Or just basic common sense when trapped inside?
Mostly though? It was just vague enough that if I squinted real hard maybe you could force a fit, but my actual records showed a totally different story. No big career moves when they said, no magical romance appearing, definitely no financial windfalls. Life happened, chaotically, and the horoscopes missed the mark almost every single month.
What I Actually Figured Out
So yeah, after spending a whole afternoon digging through archives and reliving 2020 (ugh), here’s the real expert insight:
- They’re masters of being vague. “Possible opportunities” or “Challenges may arise” covers literally anything that could happen to anyone, ever.
- We see what we want. That one tiny thing in March about health? I latched onto it because it happened. Ignored the 99% that was wrong.
- Confirmation bias is king. We remember the supposed hits and forget the overwhelming misses.
The Final Verdict? Nah, the 2020 monthly horoscope for Virgos wasn’t accurate for my life. At all. It was like reading fortune cookie strips – entertaining maybe in the moment, but utterly useless for actually predicting my messy, complicated year. Won’t be wasting time taking them seriously again. Just keeping my own records is way more reliable!
