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.

18 Things I Want To Do Now That I'm 18

I'm technically an adult, so I'm legally required to live a little, right?

For the entirety of my high school career, I was always seen as the goody-two-shoes. I never got in trouble with a teacher, I kept stellar grades, and when I wasn't doing extracurricular activities, I was at home studying. Even when I did go out, it was usually with a bunch of fellow band geeks. The night would end before 11:00 PM and the only controversial activity would be a fight based on who unfairly won a round of Apples-to-Apples when someone else clearly had a better card (I promise I'm not still holding a grudge).

Now that I'm officially an adult, I want to pursue some new things. I want to experience life in a way that I never allowed myself to do prior to entering college. These are the years that I'm supposed to embark on a journey of self-discovery, so what better way to do that than to create a bucket list?

I've been super busy lately with school work, studying, etc. Besides the fact that I do nothing but AP chemistry and AP economics, I constantly think of stupid questions that are almost impossible to answer. So, maybe you could answer them for me, and if not then we can both wonder what the answers to these 15 questions could be.
