Okay, so, I’ve been messing around with this idea of checking out those daily horoscopes from VICE, and let me tell you, it’s been a bit of a ride. I wanted to see if there’s anything to these things or if it’s all just fluff.
First off, I started by trying to find the daily horoscopes on the VICE website. I thought it would be super easy, but man, I had to dig around a bit. I finally found them, tucked away in some corner of the site. They’ve got these astrologers, like, Annabel Gat and Randon Rosenbohm who write them, so I figured they must know what they’re talking about.
- Looked up VICE’s website: This took a minute. The layout isn’t the most intuitive when you’re hunting for something specific like horoscopes.
- Found the horoscope section: It was kinda hidden, not gonna lie. But I got there eventually.
- Checked out the daily horoscopes: They have different ones for each zodiac sign, which is pretty standard. I’m a Gemini, so I scrolled down to find mine.
I decided to track my daily horoscope for a whole week to see if any of it actually made sense or lined up with what was happening in my life. I’d read my horoscope in the morning before I did anything else. Some days, the horoscope would be super vague, like, “You’re going to face a challenge today.” I mean, who doesn’t face a challenge almost every day? Other times, it was weirdly specific, like, “A conversation with a friend will lead to a new opportunity.” And one time, that actually happened! I chatted with my buddy, and he mentioned a freelance gig that I ended up getting. It was a little spooky, not gonna lie.
I also noticed they had monthly horoscopes too. So I checked out my monthly horoscope. Those are way more general, talking about the overall vibe for the month. It was less about specific events and more about the kind of energy I’d be dealing with. It didn’t hit home as much as the daily ones.
My Routine
- Wake up and read: Before coffee, before checking emails, I’d read my horoscope.
- Note down any specifics: If it mentioned something particular, I’d jot it down in my notebook.
- Reflect at the end of the day: I’d look back and see if anything matched up. It was hit or miss, really.
- Compare notes with friends: I’d ask some friends who follow astrology and we’d compare our horoscopes and whether or not they held any truth for us.
By the end of the week, I was kinda torn. Some of it was just too general to be useful, but then there were those few times when it felt like the horoscope knew what was up. It made me think that maybe there’s something to this whole astrology thing, even if it’s just for fun. It got me thinking about patterns in my life and how I react to things. And honestly, sometimes it was just a fun way to start the day, wondering what the universe, or at least VICE’s astrologers, had in store for me.
I’m not saying I’m a full-on believer now, but I get why people are into it. It’s like having a little cosmic guidance, even if you take it with a grain of salt. I might keep checking my horoscope, just to see what’s up. You never know, right?
