Okay, so this morning I woke up feeling kinda antsy, you know? That weird restless energy where you feel like you should do stuff but have no idea what. Typical Monday feeling, but cranked up. Then I remembered – duh! – it’s Virgo season. Time to check the stars, see if they’ve got any bright ideas.
The Plan Check
Fired up my usual astrology app, scrolled straight to Virgo for March 10th, 2025. Boom. Right there: “Focus on Order & Details. Review plans. Avoid big leaps.” Well, okay then. Pretty specific for a change! No “love is blossoming” or “financial windfall awaits” fluff. Just straight up telling me to get my crap together. Felt like the universe giving me a gentle (okay, maybe not that gentle) nudge.
Facing the Chaos (My Desk)
Looked around. My desk… oh boy. Piles of half-finished notes for next week’s video, that coffee mug from three days ago, random sticky notes everywhere, and a to-do list from last month. Total Virgo nightmare fuel. The app said “Order & Details”. Yeah, this mess qualified.
So, coffee first (fresh pot this time!), then I just started. No grand “organize my entire life” ambition. Just this desk. Right now.
- Dumped everything off the surface onto the floor. Every last paperclip and crumpled post-it. Felt kinda cathartic, honestly.
- Wiped down the actual wood. Found like three dead flies underneath a notebook. Gross, but necessary.
- Sorted the paper avalanche: Trash pile (so much trash!), Action Needed pile (“pay that invoice TODAY!”), Reference pile (recipes, project ideas for later), and the “Honestly, What Is This?” pile. That last one got recycled quickly.
- Went through the drawer. Found three dead pens, a USB drive I thought I lost forever (score!), and enough rubber bands to supply an office. Everything that lived there got put back neatly. Mostly.
The Plan Review Part
With the desk conquered, I felt a bit more focused. Pulled up my digital planner. Looked at this week. Had about five ideas for blog posts/videos scribbled down, plus three appointments, and “maybe finally start that garden?”. The stars screamed “Avoid Big Leaps”.
So I did something kinda painful but needed: culled the list. That garden idea? Not happening this week. Moved it to “Someday/Maybe”. One of the more ambitious blog topics? Same deal. Kept the three solid, manageable ideas. Scheduled time for each. Made sure I had all the stuff I’d need already. Feels a lot less like I’m juggling flaming chainsaws now.
The Outcome & Reflection
Finished up maybe an hour later. Desk clean(ish). Planners updated and realistic. Focus areas set. Did I build a rocket? Nope. Did I conquer the world? Nuh-uh. But honestly? I feel way, way better. That antsy, directionless feeling? Mostly gone. It wasn’t glamorous, just tidying and prioritizing. Exactly what the stars suggested. Turns out, “get organized” wasn’t just boring advice, it was exactly what my scrambled Virgo brain needed to find its footing on a bleh Monday. Who knew? Well, the stars did, apparently.
