cupid missed

I’ve never been a big fan of horoscopes. In my opinion it is stupid to let something else control whether you do something one day or not, depending on what someone’s opinion of what star formations are doing in the sky.

However, I’ve recently subscribed myself to a dating horoscope. It comes in the email daily and it is kind of silly itself. But, what I do with it is something different.

I’ll take the daily horoscope and use it to sit there and make me think. It may say something like that there is a cute someone that I’ll meet today and I should get ready for a hot date. Well, I use that to remind myself how important it is to be open to meeting new people. Not that I’m expecting to meet that hot/cute someone today, but that in general it is always a better idea to be open and prepared and willing to meet new people. I will not get hung up over what does or doesn’t happen just because it hasn’t been in my horoscope for the day. I believe this is good because so often there are things that happen and we are busy in life and we tend to forget the little basics. And I’ve found that reading the horoscope each morning, and taking the time to think about exactly it means (without accepting the suggestions or setting expectations) it tends to keep me grounded more.

And that’s a good thing!

What do you think?
