So, you know I’ve been digging into all these old prediction pieces, right? It’s not about believing in all the star stuff, it’s about figuring out how people make these things, what they track, and if there’s any pattern to the chaos. I picked up this old thing from Michele Knight—the Virgo predictions for the week of February 12, 2018. Figured it was a good concrete piece to tear apart and see what’s under the hood.
The Setup: Getting the Raw Data
First thing I did was grab the text. I hunted down the original post—took a bit of searching on archived websites and old forum discussions, but I found the raw transcript. I needed to see exactly what she wrote for that specific week for Virgos. It’s all about context, man. I printed it out, marked it up.
My goal wasn’t to prove her right or wrong, but to categorize the predictions. I wanted to see if they were:
- Vague emotional statements.
- Concrete, observable events (like ‘a new job offer’).
- Focusing on specific domains (money, relationships, career).
The Practice: Breaking Down the Predictions
I started coding the text. I basically took every sentence or distinct idea she put out and assigned it a category. For example, if she said something like, “You might feel a subtle shift in your inner life,” I tagged that as Vague/Emotional/Internal. If she said, “Expect a check in the mail by Wednesday,” I tagged that as Concrete/Financial/External. Spoiler: there were almost no concrete external ones.
For this specific Virgo reading, I noticed a few immediate trends as I tallied them up:
- Heavy focus on Relationships/Partnerships (about 40%): Lots of talk about balance, unspoken tensions, and communication breakthroughs. Standard stuff, covers almost anyone, anytime.
- A substantial slice of Career/Self-Improvement (about 30%): Things about needing to structure your time better or finding validation in your work. Again, universal life advice masked as cosmic insight.
- Financial advice (about 15%) was cautious: Mostly about reviewing budgets, not big windfalls. Safe bet for most people in February.
The remaining 15% was pure mood talk—”the atmosphere is clearing,” or “you feel misunderstood but loved.”
The Recording and Realization
After I tagged everything, I created a visualization chart. I used a simple pie chart to show the distribution of vague versus concrete statements. For that particular week, I logged 85% of her claims as “Vague/Emotional/Interpretive.” Meaning, you could look back at your week, find any slight argument with your partner, or any moment of doubt at work, and slot it perfectly into her prediction.
The practice taught me something cool about the structure of these weekly horoscopes. They don’t predict. They reframe. They offer a general psychological narrative that makes ordinary life events feel significant and cosmically guided. My whole process was about stripping away the fancy language and seeing the underlying skeleton—which, for this specific piece, was a collection of high-probability emotional states common to most people.
I even cross-referenced it with the Virgo prediction for the following week, just to see if the focus domains changed. They did slightly—more emphasis on health the next week—but the Vague-to-Concrete ratio stayed basically the same. It’s a repeatable pattern, which is the whole point of my logging. You build a machine to predict the predictions.
It was a solid few hours of work, digging through old text, tagging, and charting. Made me appreciate how much general advice can be packaged as personal insight.
