by Alright so this morning I woke up thinking about what my followers actually like. Saw a bunch of questions last week about zodiac stuff, especially Virgos and Libras since it’s birthday season. Figured, heck, why not try my hand at a monthly forecast post? Seemed like a good excuse to dive back into some old interests. You know how it is.
Kicking Things Off (The Messy Bit)
First step? Dusting off my old astrology books. Been years since I seriously cracked them open. Found them buried under some camping gear in the closet. Proceeded to spill coffee on page one of the Libra section. Classic start. Grabbed a notebook – the one with the dog-eared corners – and just started scribbling. Planet positions for September 13th, old transits, the usual suspects. My desk looked like a cosmic warzone.
The Actual Brain Work (And Googling)
Okay, I admit it. I definitely leaned on some websites too. Not like Wikipedia level, but those community forums where real astrologers argue? Gold. Scrolled through so many threads trying to see what folks were predicting for this specific month. Took notes like mad:
- Mars doing something tricky in Gemini?
- Full moon vibes near the end of the month?
- What retrograde mess are we even dealing with?
It took ages to make sense of it all. Seriously felt like my brain was turning to mush trying to remember planetary dignities. Like, does Jupiter retrograde really mean bad luck, or is that just fearmongering? Had to re-read chapters.
Putting Pen to Paper (Figuratively)
Started drafting directly in the blog editor. Focused on the sun signs everyone knows first – Aries to Pisces. Wanted to keep it simple, useful, not doom-and-gloom. Wrote little blurbs like:
- Aries: “Expect some communication hiccups early on, watch your temper bro.”
- Cancer: “Good vibes for home stuff later this month, maybe finally tackle that closet?”
- Sagittarius: “Adventure calls! Might cost ya though…”
Struggled hard with Libra and Scorpio placements this time. Felt like I was repeating myself. Took a break, walked the dog, came back, and completely rewrote those two sections. Added a disclaimer too – big bold letters – saying “This is just for fun based on my look at the stars, not gospel, go see a pro if you need serious guidance.” Gotta cover my bases, right?
The Final Stretch (Proofreading Woes)
Read the whole thing out loud. Sounded okay. Caught a typo where I wrote “Venus is in ravioli” instead of “Ravioli”… wait, no, definitely wrote “Ravioli”. Autocorrect nightmare. Fixed that. Double-checked the dates against my source notes to make sure I wasn’t telling Leos something meant for Cancers. Almost uploaded it then… panicked. Did I sound like an idiot? Did I give Pisces bad advice? Too late, hit publish.
So, That Was That
Basically, spent most of a day neck-deep in star charts, coffee stains, and second-guessing. Wrote up a quick monthly peek at what might be coming down the line. If nothing else, it got me thinking about patterns and timing again. Some folks seemed to dig it in the comments, others pointed out stuff I missed. Totally fair. Just sharing what I cobbled together from the old books and the online chaos. Was it perfect? Nah. But it was honest work. Hope someone finds a nugget of useful info in there.
