Okay so last Sunday night, I’m scrolling through my phone feeling kinda blah about romance. That’s when I remembered my Virgo rising sign—figured why not make a game plan for love this week? Grabbed my dusty journal and a purple pen (Virgo colors, duh).
Step 1: Digging into the vibes
Cracked open two astrology apps on my tablet. Mercury’s retrograde mess was finally ending Tuesday, thank god. Saw Venus cozying up with Jupiter midweek—big love energy alert! Wrote down:
- Monday/Tuesday: Chill mode. No serious talks.
- Wednesday-Friday: Green light for dates/flirting.
- Weekend: Spontaneity boost.
Cross-checked with last week’s notes where Mars had me snapping at my date over sushi order drama. Yeah, no repeats this time.
Step 2: Making my move
Texted that cutie from yoga class Wednesday morning when Venus-Jupiter kicked in. Super simple: “Hey, that coffee place near the studio has new pastries—wanna grab some tonight?” No overthinking. Just sent it.
Meanwhile, planned solo stuff too! Bought tickets for that indie concert Friday night solo—figured if Venus showers luck, maybe I’d meet someone there. Packed my bag with mints and charged my phone like a good Virgo soldier.
How it played out
- Wednesday coffee date: Went 2 hours because we couldn’t stop laughing about his dog’s TikTok fame.
- Friday concert: Got chatting with a drummer during intermission. He bought me a terrible cheap beer—but the gesture? Cute.
- Saturday: Unexpected picnic invite from coffee guy! Used my “spontaneity” note and ditched laundry for park hang.
Best part? Zero Mercury retrograde fires. When he texted Saturday asking “park at 3?”, I just replied “bring lemonade” instead of over-analyzing for 20 minutes. Growth!
Final takeaway? Astrology ain’t magic—but damn if planning around planetary drama doesn’t save headaches. Virgos, use that organizer brain for love too! Next week? Manifesting less overthinking…but we’ll see.
