Yeah so last week was rough. My whole schedule got wrecked when my laptop charger died on Tuesday morning right before client meetings. Felt like the universe was messing with me extra hard – spilled coffee everywhere, missed deadlines, the works. Got me thinking about that Taurus horoscope forecast floating around for late April. Figured why not actually try using those astro tips instead of just reading ’em for funsies.
Starting Simple
First thing Wednesday, I grabbed my stupidly thick notebook and a red pen. Wrote down the key Taurus things from that prediction:
- Focus on stubborn habits holding you back
- Check money stuff carefully around 28th
- Don’t ignore tiredness
- Unexpected chat changes things
Looked at my disaster Tuesday and went, “Okay fine, stars might be onto something.”
The Actual Doing Part
Thursday I tried fighting my “just push through” instinct. When I felt wiped at 3pm? Actually closed the laptop and napped for 20 minutes like the horoscope nudged about tiredness. And holy crap – came back and finished reports in half the time. Small win.
Friday was money day since the prediction highlighted the 28th. Did something I always avoid: checked my subscriptions. Found two dumb app payments I hadn’t used since 2024. Cancelled ’em immediately. Saved $26/month. Not life-changing but hey, stars told me to look, so I looked.
Biggest Surprise
Saturday morning my neighbor randomly knocked asking to borrow tools. Normally I’d just hand ’em over quick, but that “unexpected chat” bullet point popped in my head. Made awkward small talk about her garden. Turns out she does professional organizing. Next thing I know she’s giving me free tips for my nightmare garage while I hold a wrench. Would’ve missed that if I wasn’t trying this astrology experiment.
Stuff That Didn’t Work
Tried journaling about “stubborn habits” like the prediction said. Lasted two sentences before getting bored. Also attempted some crystal thing people recommend. Felt silly holding a rock. Did nothing for me. Dumped that idea fast.
By Sunday night I flipped back through my messy notes:
- Napped when tired = better work
- Checked subs = saved cash
- Talked to neighbor = free help
- Skipped the weird stuff = no loss
Weirdly practical results for star-gazing. Serving suggestion: take ONE tip that doesn’t sound crazy and actually try it this week. Worst case? You waste 10 minutes.
