Honestly, I’ve always been skeptical about astrology stuff, but last December, I stumbled on this Virgo money forecast while doomscrolling before bed. Figured, “What the heck?” and decided to test it like a science experiment for all of 2024. Grabbed an old notebook – that cheap one with coffee stains – and labeled it “Virgo Money Diary”.
The Tracking Setup
Started simple. Every Sunday night, I’d sit at my kitchen table and scribble down three things: cash earned (paychecks, side gigs, random refunds), cash lost (bills, impulse buys, parking tickets), and money surprises (found $20 in old jeans, surprise invoices). Used emojis like 📈 for good weeks and 💸 for “oops” weeks.
What Actually Happened Month by Month
January sucked. Like, expected post-holiday slump – car repair ate my bonus. February? Meh. But April… boom! Landed a freelance client outta nowhere while complaining about slow wifi at a cafe. Guy overheard me, handed his card. Paid upfront too. May was steady, but late August? Wild. Got two raises: one for hustling an extra project, one ‘cause my boss quit. Unexpected.
- April: Freelance surprise (cha-ching!)
- August: Double salary bumps 👏
- October: Tax refund I’d forgotten about arrived
Meanwhile, June felt like watching paint dry money-wise. July? Dropped cash on a Vegas trip 🎰 – guess where my August raises went?
The Big Reveal
Cross-referenced my notebook with the forecast last weekend. Blew my mind – April, August, October matched the “peak months” prediction almost perfectly. Even my dead zone months (January, June, November) aligned. Only fluke? I randomly sold concert tickets for profit in March, which wasn’t “predicted,” but hey – luck counts.
So yeah… won’t bet my life savings on horoscopes now, but April and August were legit 🔥 for my wallet. 2024 experiment? Worth it. At least I’ll save harder pre-January next year. And avoid Vegas.
