Ah, horoscopes. The internet’s little love letter to your existential crisis. This morning, I read my daily horoscope, and let me tell you, it was a chef’s kiss moment of celestial confusion:

“You are either too busy or too free. Take this time to reevaluate your life choices before it’s too late.”

Um, excuse me, stars? Am I a workaholic juggling three planners or a couch potato perfecting the art of blanket burritoing? Could you maybe… I don’t know, pick a lane?

Horoscopes: Your Daily Roast by the Universe

It reminded me of the time my horoscope told me to “embrace spontaneity.” So naturally, I decided to go wild and buy a new laundry detergent scent. A bold lavender-vanilla mix. Let me tell you, my clothes smelled like a bakery on a spa day, and I’m still wondering if that’s what the universe had in mind.

Another classic was the prediction, “An unexpected financial gain is in your future.” I spent the whole week thinking I’d stumble upon a winning lottery ticket. Turns out, the “financial gain” was a $5 refund from an overcharged grocery receipt. Thanks, universe, I’ll try not to spend it all in one place.

Numerology: Math, But Make It Mystical

Don’t even get me started on numerology. One time, someone told me my life path number was 7, which means I’m introspective, spiritual, and drawn to deep mysteries. I was like, “Sure, but I also just spent two hours trying to figure out how to microwave a potato properly, so maybe dial it back on the ‘mystical genius’ stuff.”

There was also the moment I got hooked on angel numbers. I kept seeing 333 everywhere. I thought it was a divine sign—until I realized it was just the cost of my regular coffee order. A latte and a life lesson, all for $3.33.

Tarot: When Cards Read You to Filth

Tarot cards are the OG of mystical sass. I once drew the “Tower” card during a reading, and the reader gave me a sheepish look. “This indicates upheaval,” she said. Sure enough, two hours later, I dropped my phone in the toilet. Upheaval achieved.

Another time, I got the “Fool” card, which is supposed to represent new beginnings and innocence. I thought, How cute!Then I tripped on my shoelace while walking out of the reading. The cards don’t lie, folks.

Psychic Readings: Suspense, Served With a Side of Ambiguity

Psychic readings are like a suspense novel where you never get the last chapter. I once went to a psychic who told me, “You’re going to meet someone important in the next six months.” That’s it. No name, no description, no vibe. I spent half a year side-eyeing every stranger in the grocery store, wondering if they were my destiny.

When the six months passed and I hadn’t met anyone “important,” I decided the psychic probably meant I was the important person I’d meet. Cue a self-love montage of me buying snacks for one and taking selfies with my cat.

So, Why Do We Believe?

Here’s the thing: horoscopes, tarot, numerology, and psychic readings—they’re like the universal meme factory of the soul. Sure, they’re vague, but that’s their magic. They throw you a breadcrumb of wisdom, and suddenly you’re deep in thought, wondering if you should switch careers or try bangs.

We believe because sometimes it feels good to think the universe is rooting for us—or at least laughing with us. And if you don’t believe, at least you’ll get a funny story out of it.

So whether you’re “too busy” or “too free,” just remember: the universe might not have all the answers, but it definitely has a sense of humor. And isn’t that kind of comforting?

Now if you’ll excuse me, I just pulled the “Chariot” card, and I think it’s telling me to order takeout. Because nothing says “victory” like pad Thai and spring rolls.
