So today I wanna share how I tested those “lucky days” from my Aries career horoscope. Honestly? I’m usually that guy who laughs at astrology stuff. But last month was brutal – missed deadlines, projects falling apart, felt like I couldn’t catch a break. Saw this horoscope online and thought, “What the heck, might as well try.”
Getting Started with the Dates
First thing I did was pull up the forecast for Aries this season. Scrolled through some blogs and forums to compare dates – lotsa folks disagreed, but these dates kept popping up:
- July 10th
- July 22nd
- August 3rd
- August 17th
Wrote ’em down in my planner with big red stars. Even set phone reminders saying “NO BAD DECISIONS TODAY” for those dates. Felt silly, but hey.
What Actually Went Down
Now for the juicy part – here’s how I used those dates:
July 10th: Had this make-or-break client pitch scheduled. Normally I’d stress for days, but that morning? Woke up weirdly calm. Walked into the meeting joking about my coffee addiction. Client loved the vibe, approved the project on the spot. Check deposited 48 hours later. Wild.
July 22nd: Total opposite experience. Boss dumped a last-minute presentation on me at 9AM. Equipment crashed during setup. Sweating bullets, I remembered the “lucky day” thing and blurted out, “Hey, technical difficulties mean extra luck right?” Got nervous laughs… and somehow convinced them to reschedule for August 3rd.
August 3rd: That rescheduled presentation? Killed it. Client kept nodding, asked zero hard questions. Signed paperwork before lunch. Same slides that bombed last time!
August 17th: This was the real test. Asked for a raise – something I’d chickened out on for months. Practiced my speech in the bathroom mirror. Boss actually interrupted me with “Been meaning to talk about your salary…” Got 15% more plus flexible hours. Walked out pinching myself.
My Takeaway
Kinda shook ngl. Before testing this, I launched a side project on some random Tuesday in June. Crashed hard. But scheduling big asks on these “lucky” dates? Everything slid into place like butter. Even dumb stuff – printer jams resolving fast, parking spots opening up.
Would I bet my career on horoscopes? Hell no. But noticing how calm I felt on those days changed my game. Went from panicking to thinking “Today’s got my back”. Weirdly became a self-fulfilling prophecy. Gonna keep tracking this – got more dates circled for September!
