Alright folks, grab a coffee because I actually tried that whole “Wednesday Horoscope” thing this morning. Yeah, you know the one – June 18th, something about energy. Honestly? I usually just scroll past this stuff, but hey, figured why not give it a proper shot today and write down what happened. No fancy talk, just what I did.
Waking Up To It
First things first. Woke up around 6:30 AM, same as always, feeling kinda foggy. Remembered I wanted to do this horoscope journaling experiment. Didn’t wanna hunt down some paid app or complicated website. Just grabbed my phone, opened a basic free horoscope site I found ages ago – one of those simple ones with the sun signs listed out.
Looked it up: June 18 Horoscope Forecast: Simple Guide to Your Wednesday Energy. Scrolled down to find mine (I’m a Leo). The forecast talked about “using fiery energy for communication” and “avoiding arguments by speaking carefully.” Bit vague, but okay. Copied the key points onto a sticky note on my desktop.
Taking It Into The Day
Here’s where the practical bit kicked in. I had a pretty standard Wednesday lined up:
- Morning team meeting (Zoom, sigh)
- Catch-up emails backlog
- Lunch with a friend
- Brainstorming session for a new project
Tried to keep that sticky note visible. Before the team meeting started, I actually read it again: “using fiery energy for communication.” My natural Leo self usually jumps in loud and proud, right? Tried something different. Paused. Listened more than I spoke. Asked clarifying questions instead of pushing my idea instantly. Felt weirdly effective. The call was smoother. Maybe coincidence? Dunno.
Lunch with my friend. Forecast mentioned “speaking carefully to avoid arguments.” We sometimes bicker about silly stuff. Today, when they said something that would normally get my back up, I took a breath. Said something like, “Huh, interesting perspective. Tell me more.” Worked! No friction. Totally unplanned win.
The Afternoon & Wrap-Up
That brainstorming session? Full of energy, which tracks. I pitched ideas clearly – hopefully using that “fiery” vibe constructively! The sticky note got buried under other windows eventually.
Final thoughts? Did thinking about the forecast change anything? Maybe. Did I magically manifest amazing communication skills? Nah. But it acted like a little mental reminder – a nudge – to approach conversations differently today. The simple advice became actionable because I actively decided to try it out.
Was it perfect? Not really. Forgot the forecast entirely by late afternoon. Still, worth a shot? Yeah. It made me more conscious about how I interacted for a few hours, and honestly? That felt kinda productive for a random Wednesday. Might try it again with another simple forecast next week. See what happens!
