Okay, so March 13 rolls around and I see everyone buzzing about Aries season kicking off. Figured hey, why not try that astrology luck-boosting thing myself? Zero clue if it works, but my energy’s been dragging lately, so game for anything. Grabbed my dusty notebook – yeah, the one with coffee stains – and scribbled down a rough plan.
My Pre-Game Setup
First step: Google what the heck Aries energy even means. Turned out it’s fire, ambition, all that go-getter stuff. Made a mental note: red things = good. Then I raided my apartment for anything red. Found exactly three useful items:
- A ratty old hoodie (washed it, smelled like regret)
- This tiny chili plant dying on my windowsill (revival project!)
- Literally one red pen buried under takeout menus
Cleared off my desk too. Threw out expired ramen packets and wiped it down. Felt kinda symbolic, like tossing last month’s energy drainers.
The Actual Ritual Stuff
Waited until noon – sun highest point, maximum fire vibes. Put on that hoodie (still kinda damp). Wrote three things I wanted to crush this season on separate paper scraps:
- Actually finish that online course
- Ask for that raise without puking from nerves
- Stop hitting snooze six times
Set the paper scraps under the chili plant. Watered the poor thing while yelling “GROW, DAMMIT!” – felt ridiculous, but commitment, right? Then did this spontaneous dance to Lizzo in my socks. Embarrassing? Absolutely. But dang, endorphins kicked in.
Post-Ritual Weirdness
Sat there sweating in my hoodie like an idiot. Zero magical sparkles, zero spirit animals appearing. But… weirdly focused? Powered through two work tasks I’d avoided all week. Later, my boss pinged me randomly about “upcoming projects” – coincidence? Probably. Still fist-bumped the air.
Also noticed I didn’t snooze once today. Hoodie power? Placebo? Who cares. The chili plant’s got new leaves though. Solid win.
Would I Bother Again?
Honestly? Yeah. Did I summon cosmic luck? Doubtful. But forcing myself to set goals, clean my space, and dance like a maniac? That’s just good energy hygiene. Pro tip: skip the yelling-at-plants part unless you need weird looks from neighbors. Hoodie stays for next time. ✌️
