I kept getting asked about Virgo horoscopes, especially the monthly ones from Elle. People kept saying it’s confusing, so I thought – why not make it simple? So I set out to create an easy guide. First, I grabbed my laptop and went straight to the Elle Horoscope section, scrolling through their Virgo monthly predictions.
The Confusing Part
Their language was full of stuff like “Mercury retrograde” and “sextile aspects”. Like, what does that even mean? I started scribbling notes on my notebook, translating each astro-term into plain English. When they said “Saturn’s influence may cause delays”, I wrote: “Expect slow traffic or late emails.” Simple stuff anyone gets.
My Testing Phase
Last month, I tried living by their career prediction. They said: “Jupiter’s alignment creates leadership opportunities.” Instead of waiting for magic, I pitched three ideas at work. Got two rejected – but one got approved! So my version became: “Speak up about your ideas – one might stick.” Real talk.
Organizing the Guide
I made bullet points for each life area:
- Love: Skip the “cosmic connections” jargon. If it says Venus brings romance, write “Good week for dating apps or flirting”.
- Money: Changed “financial eclipses” to “Check bank statements to avoid surprises”.
- Health: Instead of “energetic imbalances”, wrote “Take vitamin D if feeling tired”.
The Big Mistake
First draft had exact dates like “July 14th – career breakthrough”. Total fail! Horoscopes aren’t crystal balls. Revised it to say: “Mid-month: Update your resume if job hunting.” Practical steps beat mystical guesses.
Finished by printing copies for my Virgo friends. They texted back: “Finally get it now!” Proves even fluffy predictions need real-world anchors. Still won’t blame Mercury if my coffee spills though.
