So 2015 rolls around, and I’m sittin’ at my kitchen table thinkin’ about astrology stuff. My buddy Dave’s a total Virgo, always stressin’ over his love life. I grab my laptop, open a blank doc, and say to myself: “Let’s break down what the stars got for Virgos this month.”
First thing I did? Pulled up three different horoscope sites. Not the fancy paid ones – just regular free pages bookmarked in my browser. Cross-checked predictions for Virgo love vibes in January 2015. Two said “romantic tension,” one said “stable energy.” Got real confused cause they weren’t syncing up.
Next afternoon, I hit the library. Dug through dusty astrology magazines from 2014-2015. Found this old book called “Zodiac Cycles Through Time” with creaky binding. Took notes on planetary positions during Virgo seasons past. Mercury in retrograde? Yep – that explained the mixed signals online.
Puttin’ it together felt like baking disaster cake. My first draft read like robotic fortune cookie:
- “Venus influences emotional sectors”
- “Mars creates passionate friction”
- “Avoid new commitments until Jupiter aligns”
Trashed that immediately. Went walkin’ to clear my head. Saw this couple arguing outside Starbucks over latte orders. Bam! Real-life inspiration struck.
Rewrote everything plain:
- “Early month: Chill vibes. Don’t force talks”
- “Week 3: Partners act moody. Pack patience”
- “Valentine’s week: Surprise plot twist incoming!”
Typed final version while eating cold pizza at 2am. Published straight to my blog platform, no edits. Week later, Dave calls yellin’: “HOW’D YOU KNOW SARAH WOULD SHOW UP AT MY GYM?!”
Sometimes the universe just whispers if you bother listenin’.
