Alright so yesterday morning I was scrolling through my usual astrology apps like I do every Monday – coffee in hand, half-awake ya know? Saw this week’s Taurus career forecast popping up and figured hey why not test drive it properly this time instead of just skimming. Grabbed my ragged notebook where I scribble these things.
What It Said & My Plan
The prediction basically said three things stand out for Taureans career-wise this week:
- Don’t force rushed decisions – Especially with money stuff
- Unexpected chats with higher-ups could surprise you
- Collaboration > going solo to get things done
Honestly sounded kinda vague like horoscope crap always does. But decided to actually track this step-by-step at work since I’m coordinating a messy client project.
Monday-Tuesday Reality Check
First two days I caught myself twice almost pushing for quick vendor payments just to clear my plate. Remembered “don’t force rushed decisions” and sat on it both times. Turned out one invoice had errors and the other wasn’t even due till Friday. Small win.
Then Wednesday morning bam – my department head pinged me randomly about grabbing coffee. Totally unplanned. Freaked me out at first thinking I messed up something. Nope! She just wanted input on next quarter’s budget planning. Had zero warning but the stars kinda called it?
Thursday Crisis Mode
Huge client deliverable got tangled Thursday. My usual stubborn Taurus self wanted to lock myself in a room and brute-force solve it alone. But nope – remembered that “collaboration” tip. Called in our cranky IT guy and quiet new designer even though it felt slower initially. Their input uncovered a permissions glitch I’d missed completely. Took half the time to fix together than if I’d solo’d it.
Friday Wrap-Up & Thoughts
Today I went back to that original horoscope post and checked off each point. Wild how tracking it made me notice patterns I’d normally ignore:
- Slowing down money decisions saved actual cash
- That random executive chat opened strategic doors
- Swallowing pride to collaborate saved a client deliverable
Still think astrology’s half luck half psychology tricks… but actively testing it this week? Honestly shook me how much got “predicted.” Makes you think about subconscious habits I guess. Might try this weekly experiment longer.
