So here’s how I actually tried prepping for my Aries 2025 year step-by-step. Didn’t wanna overthink it but figured why not give it a shot? Grabbed my dusty astrology book first – yeah that one from 2018 with coffee stains. Started flipping pages while muttering “where’s the damn Aries chapter”.
Step 1: Scavenger Hunt at Home
Remembered I needed some “fiery elements” for energy. Didn’t wanna spend cash so I raided my kitchen:
– Red candles? Nope. Used cinnamon sticks instead – they’re sorta reddish brown.
– Crystals? Grabbed a pointy chunk of quartz from my kid’s rock collection.
– Pen and paper? Ripped a page from my grocery list notebook. Classy.
Step 2: The “Ritual” Disaster
Cleared space on my cluttered desk. Knocked over picture frames – twice. Lit the cinnamon stick. Big mistake. Smelled like burnt cookies and set off the smoke alarm. Cursed while flapping a towel at it. Dog started howling. Real Aries chaos right there.
- Wrote intentions: Scribbled “ADVENTURE” then scribbled over it when realizing mortgage payments exist.
- Focus object: Placed the quartz on top of my scribbles. Forgot and almost crushed it with my coffee mug.
- Visualization: Tried imagining hiking Machu Picchu. Brain kept switching to my dentist appointment next Tuesday.
Step 3: Practical Stuff I Actually Did
Decided symbolic stuff wasn’t cutting it. Switched to real actions:
- Purged old junk: Emptied ONE closet shelf (rest is still chaos). Felt strangely powerful tossing expired spices.
- Set micro-goals: Wrote “TRY NEW BREAKFAST CEREAL” on my actual calendar. Bold moves only.
- Impulse buy: Ordered cheap red socks online. 95% polyester. Authentic fiery spirit right there.
Final Thoughts Before It All Falls Apart
Honestly? Spilled soy sauce on my “intention paper” later that night. Quartz now holding down loose receipts. But that impulse closet shelf purge? Felt like conquering Mount Everest. Maybe “prepping” just means doing one damn thing that makes you feel unstuck. We’ll see if red socks change my life in 2025. Probably not. But hey – at least my cereal game might improve.
