How The Full Flower Moon Affected Me

From a Virgo's perspective.

On May 29th, 2018 we experienced a full moon known as the Full Flower Moon. As a Virgo, the day was really weird and blurry for me, a lot of ups and downs and I couldn't quite figure out why. Some weird things happened, some really awesome things happened, but I could not for the life of me shake the pit in my stomach. My anxiety was hitting really high, which I really had no reason for it to be that intense.

My friend and I decided it would be a good night to have a fire in my backyard. After sitting there and telling her how off I felt, I looked up at the sky behind me and saw the moon peaking out behind some clouds. I didn't think much of it, as I really couldn't see it entirely. I looked back up a few minutes later and the clouds had disappeared completely, the moon was ridiculously bright and huge. I asked my friend if it was a full moon, and obviously she had no idea either since neither of us are astrology experts. After a little bit of Googling, she told me that the Flower Moon was in effect that night.

She began reading to me that the Flower Moon was supposedly significantly positive for Gemini, Virgo, Sagittarius and Pieces signs. For these signs, it said if we were feeling particularly edgy during the full moon, it was suggested that we find some way to do a cleansing ritual to help center our being. It was made clear that these signs were going to struggle during the Flower Moon, but on the opposite end it was supposed to be a good time to make a love connection. The main purpose of this moon is to find some sort of balance within yourself, and that goes for all signs. The main focus of this moon is to make sure you don't burn yourself out quite yet, as summer is just beginning.

I was taken aback as she was reading this out to me, because I was connecting with this moon on so many different levels. The moon was supposed to reach its peak on May 29th at 10:20 am. I was super creeped out by this, because earlier that morning at 10:20 on the dot, I opened my Instagram and saw that my ex, whom I still have wild feelings for, had requested to follow me back. While writing this, I had to look back at a text I sent my friend telling her about him wanting to follow me at 10:23 am. I had a little time to freak out in between those three minutes, haha. So that all explained the love connection that I had been so desperately seeking for six months now.

Everything was making more sense. You can believe all of these things that I've just written out or not, that's up to you. But, you're talking to the girl who was up at four in the morning to watch the Super Blue Blood Moon, praying that something in my life would change. I got that change with the Flower Moon. So, if any of you were feeling a little off that Tuesday, here's your explanation. You're welcome.

11 Things Summer Nannies Can Relate To

As a college student, being a nanny over the summer is both enjoyable and challenging. Underneath the seemingly perfect trips to the pool or countless hours spent playing Monopoly are the obstacles that only nannies will understand. Trading in your valuable summer vacation in return for three months spent with a few children less than half your age may seem unappealing, but so many moments make it rewarding. For my fellow summer nannies out there, I know you can relate.

If it hurts now, it'll hurt again. Not because you're gullible or naive, only because you fall fast, hard, and you do it every time.

We fall each and every time with the complete and utter confidence that someone will be there to catch us. Now that person we SWORE we were never going to fall for has our hearts, and every time we see them our palms start sweating. The butterflies in our stomach start to soar and our hearts are entirely too close to bursting out of our chests.

Growing up I have always wanted to own a horse. My grandparents own a well known equestrian facility in Georgia, so I have been riding since I was born. A bond between a person and their horse is a bond so strong that it cannot be broken. Everywhere I went I wanted to be around horses, even forcing my family to go on trail rides during vacations. Horses have been a part of my life for as long as I can remember has taught me great responsibility, as well as 14 things that all equestrians can relate to.

College is super hard. Between working, studying, and having a social life, it feels like a struggle to just keep afloat.

I understand. When you feel like your drowning and there's no way to stay afloat I understand that it feels like everyone else is doing just fine. I understand all the frustration, long nights in the library, and that feeling that you want to just throw in the towel. I understand that sometimes it's too hard to get out of bed because your brain is already filled with too much information to remember. I understand because I am also feeling pretty burnt out.

Some of the best advice I've ever received was from my social studies teacher in sophomore year of high school. He stated, "If you don't know it at midnight, you're not going to know it for the 8 a.m. exam, so get some sleep."

It's such a simple piece of advice, but it holds so much accuracy and it's something that the majority of college students need to hear and listen to. "All-nighters" are a commonality on college campuses in order to cram in studying for an exam that is typically the next day.
