The Absolute Mess That Led Me To Weekly Pisces Love Horoscopes
I swear, I only clicked on that weekly Pisces love junk because my buddy Mark sent it to me. Mark’s a Leo, so he obviously knows everything about everyone else’s star sign, right? The week started out a total mess, and I wasn’t looking for answers from some online crystal ball. I was looking for an explanation for a text message that made absolutely zero sense.
My “practice”—if you even want to call this chaotic scrolling a practice—didn’t start with wanting to read about the “Single Fish” or the “Taken Fish.” It started with my phone vibrating at 2 AM with a message from someone I’ve been dating for, like, three months. Let’s call her Sarah. Sarah’s a classic, dreamy Pisces. The text? It was just three random emojis: a wave, a lock, and a melting face. No words. Nothing else.
I spent maybe fifteen minutes just staring at the screen. What the heck does a wave, a lock, and a melting face mean? Is she going swimming but the pool is locked, and she’s upset about it? Is she feeling free (wave) but trapped (lock) and sad (melting)? This is the kind of garbage that drives you nuts.
I hit up Mark. He’s already awake, obviously. I send him the screenshot. He goes, “Dude, she’s a Pisces. You gotta check the Weekly Love Outlook. Trust me.” I rolled my eyes so hard I almost strained something. But I was stuck. I couldn’t sleep. I had to know if this was a “Sarah issue” or a “Pisces issue.”
The Deep Dive Into Cosmic Nonsense
So, I went into execution mode. My whole process was a total scramble. I didn’t use any specific, high-end astrology website. I just typed “horoscope love weekly pisces” into the search bar, clicked the first non-video link that popped up, and started my read-through.
My goal was specific: find the line that explained the melting face emoji.
My first step was the “Single Fish” section, just to see what kind of general energy was floating around.
- The prediction was all about “unexpected connections” and “dreamy, confusing encounters.”
- It used words like “foggy” and “delicate boundaries.”
Okay, great. Nothing about melting faces. But “foggy and confusing?” That fits the text message perfectly. I mentally filed that away as “Astrology 1, Reality 0.”
Then I moved to the “Taken Fish” section, which is where my situation technically falls, even if we hadn’t defined things beyond “we hang out a lot and share expensive takeout.”
The “Taken Fish” part was even worse. It specifically talked about a “mid-week emotional test” and “a need to clarify hidden feelings before resentment locks in.”
I stopped dead right there. Hidden feelings before resentment locks in? That’s when the two other emojis clicked—the wave (emotion/flow) and the lock (trapped/hidden). I started connecting the dots: She felt trapped about some hidden feelings she had. The melting face was just her being emotionally overwhelmed by it all.
Now, let me tell you why I was really looking for this ridiculous astrological excuse. It ties into why I’m a blogger about actual systems and real-world results.
The Real Reason I Care About A Silly Fish Chart
See, I only even met Sarah because of another mess I got into last year. That whole disaster with my old company? You might remember I wrote about it. The short version: I was working this insane job, twelve hours a day, totally burned out, my social life was a dust bunny. I tried to automate one simple, repetitive task—a total no-brainer—and my old boss, a total rigid Taurus, completely freaked out. Said I was “disrupting established protocol.”
He fired me on the spot, without cause. I spent three months fighting for unemployment and just feeling totally lost. That frustration led me to take a low-stakes volunteer gig just to get out of the house, and that’s where I met Sarah, who was running the whole thing with this beautiful, chaotic, Pisces energy.
So when that bizarre three-emoji text showed up, my immediate fear wasn’t “Oh no, she’s breaking up with me.” My fear was that I was going to lose the only good, chaotic, unplanned thing that came out of my previous life’s system failure. I was terrified of more instability.
The horoscope, the “emotional test” part, became my excuse to panic. I was reading garbage online to avoid the simple, difficult step of just asking her what the symbols meant.
The Final Implementation and The Results
After about forty-five minutes of going cross-eyed analyzing the position of Venus relative to my supposed “inner growth,” I had to snap out of it. I realized I was doing exactly what I tell my readers not to do: over-complicating a simple communication failure.
Here was my final, four-step process—the true practice:
- I took a deep breath.
- I closed the five open horoscope tabs.
- I scrolled back up to the nonsensical text.
- I typed one single, simple, adult sentence.
My text to Sarah: “Hey, that melting face emoji has me worried. Everything okay? Just text me when you wake up.”
Guess what the return message was, three hours later?
Sarah’s text: “OMG, so sorry. I was half-asleep. I was trying to tell you I was worried about the ocean’s melting ice caps and I accidentally used the lock emoji instead of the ice cube. I’m fine! Sorry! :)”
Seriously. That’s it. My forty-five minutes of analyzing “hidden resentment” and “delicate boundaries” was about climate change and a late-night typing error.
The big reveal for this blogger? Don’t check the weekly forecast to figure out your love life. If you feel like your relationship is a total mess because of a confusing signal, the process isn’t to click on the stars; the process is to shut down the browser and send the direct, terrifying text you’ve been avoiding. I wasted all that time. At least now I have something to blog about.
