Woke up this morning and grabbed my journal like always. Saw the date – April Fool’s Day 2025 – and chuckled. Figured today’s horoscope might be wild. Being an Aries myself, curiosity got me brewing coffee while flipping open my astrology app.
Setting Up My Ritual
Plopped on the couch with my steaming mug and tapped the daily forecast section. Scrolled straight to Aries. The app showed Saturn retrograde squaring Jupiter today. Honestly? No clue what that meant at first glance. Took a screenshot and pasted it right into my journal app.
- First step: Typed “Saturn Jupiter square retrograde meaning for Aries” into my search bar
- Second: Scrolled through three different astrology blogs comparing interpretations
- Third: Scribbled bullet points in my notebook: “Delays possible but unexpected opportunities too”
Real-Life Testing
Headed to work keeping the “expect delays” note in mind. Sure enough, the bus showed up 20 minutes late. Instead of stressing, I pulled out my journal again and actually laughed writing: “Called it! Saturn doing its thing.”
Afternoon got interesting though. Boss suddenly asked me to present at a meeting I wasn’t prepped for – classic Jupiter surprise moment. Remembered the forecast about seizing unexpected chances. Went full Aries mode: bull-rushed that presentation with pure energy instead of slides.
Evening Reflection
Now reviewing my journal entries over dinner. Funny how the stars nailed both obstacles AND breakthroughs today. Would’ve blown off that presentation without checking Jupiter’s influence this morning. Lesson learned? Astrology doesn’t predict – just gives you cheat codes if you’re paying attention.
Final note in my journal: “Saturn tried to slow me down. Jupiter threw gasoline on my fire. Typical Tuesday.” Might frame tomorrow’s horoscope next to my alarm clock.
