Why I Started Tracking Daily Horoscopes
Earlier this year during my coffee routine, I spilled beans all over my astrology book and realized – why not just write predictions myself? Not like the stars care if I get it wrong. So I bought this cheap zodiac notebook from a street vendor.
This morning around 7am, I dragged out that battered notebook after my second espresso. First thing I do is check moon phases on my weather app – waning crescent today. Then I flip open my dog-eared notebook where I’ve scribbled planet positions. Cross-referencing with this astrology website I found last month.
How I Build Each Prediction
Started with Aries cause they’re first alphabetically. Glanced at yesterday’s notes where I predicted relationship drama for them. Truth is Mrs. Henderson at the bakery told me her Aries husband forgot their anniversary yesterday – nailed that prediction by accident.
- For Taurus I wrote “Financial caution!” – same thing I wrote last Thursday. Nobody complains.
- Gemini got “Surprise encounters!” because my garbage collector (a Gemini) waved at me unexpectedly.
- Warned Leos about sunburn – it’s July after all, common sense really.
Struggled big time with Scorpio though. Couldn’t decide between “Career opportunity” or “Family tensions” so I wrote both. That’s the secret – make it vague enough to always fit.
My Essential Tips Section
This part’s actually useful. Wrote down what I’m doing today:
- Hydrate more (my plants looked droopy yesterday)
- Check tire pressure (that weird noise from my car)
- Text mom back (she left three voicemails)
Threw in some universal advice like “Trust your instincts” – because honestly that covers 90% of life problems. Ended all tips with “Avoid major decisions today” just in case somebody screws up their life and blames me.
Putting It All Together
Edited on my phone while waiting for laundry to finish. Took three attempts to spell “opportunity” right. Added constellation emojis because everybody ignores plain text now. Posted around 9:30am right after I burned my toast.
Best part? My neighbor (hardcore Capricorn) messaged saying my prediction about “unexpected help” came true when her cat got stuck in a tree. Fire department rescued it. See? Stars always deliver.
