Okay, so, “mercury is in libra,” huh? I saw that pop up on my feed this morning and thought, “Alright, let’s actually do something with this.” Not just read some vague horoscope. I wanted to see if I could feel it, you know?
First thing I did? I checked my calendar. I’m a pretty disorganized person by nature, and Libra is all about balance, right? So I grabbed my neglected planner. Dusting it off was the first challenge! I started going through it, marking down all my appointments, deadlines, the usual stuff. I realized pretty quickly I was double-booked on Thursday. Major conflict. Libra energy screaming already!
So, I spent a good hour trying to figure out which commitment I could shift. It involved a lot of emailing, a little bit of begging, and some strategic flattery. Eventually, I managed to reschedule one meeting without completely pissing anyone off. Felt like a win, honestly. Like I’d brought some harmony to the chaos.
Next, I tackled my workspace. It’s usually a disaster zone. Papers everywhere, half-empty coffee cups, you name it. I started by just throwing away anything that was obviously trash. Then, I grouped things together – bills in one pile, work stuff in another, random art supplies (I’m a hobbyist) in a third.
Biggest game changer: I bought some cheap storage boxes from the dollar store. Suddenly, everything had a place. Didn’t magically make me organized, but it looked a hell of a lot better and I could actually see my desk.
Then, ’cause Libra also deals with relationships, I figured I’d reach out to someone I haven’t talked to in a while. An old friend from college. Just sent a simple “Hey, how’s it going?” text. Got a response almost immediately. We chatted for like an hour about everything and nothing. Felt good to reconnect.
Finally, and this is a bit cheesy, I put on some chill music and spent like 15 minutes just breathing. No phone, no distractions, just trying to be present. Honestly, it was harder than I thought. My mind kept wandering. But I kept bringing myself back to the breath.
The result? Did Mercury in Libra magically fix my life? Nah. But I did feel a bit more centered, a bit more calm. And my desk looks way less like a garbage heap. It was a good reminder to focus on balance and connection. Plus, I got a reminder to buy more coffee. Always a plus!
