Are the heavens really able to tell our futures?
Up until a few months ago, I never really thought about it. I would check the Sunday paper and read my daily horoscope for kicks but that was about it. I'd go about my day and forget what I read 10 minutes before.
After my ectopic last year, and especially after the surgery, I was looking for any answer I could find.
Why did this happen?
Why did God allow me to get pregnant only to take it away?
Not only was I looking for answers to "Why", I was also looking for answers to the future. Would I ever get pregnant again? And, more importantly, when?
So, I started looking at my horoscopes in more detail. I would look at the whole month or year in review. I found two that I thought seemed more "credible" than others and found some pretty cool stuff.
But, before I divulge these spectacular revelations, I have one disclaimer.
I AM NOT A WHACK JOB!
I am usually a very cynical and distrusting person. After all, I am an Aries. I know, that explains alot, doesn't it?
OK, be ready to be amazed...
One site specifically mentioned I would have a major health event in October, 2007. Yeah, I think I pretty much got that one covered.
Both sites hinted at the following:
* A major career advancement would occur in June or July. I got a promotion.
* I would join some sort of networking or social group. At the time, I thought "What the hell does that mean?". Now, I know. It's you guys. I never had any intention of starting a blog until I stumbled on Wendy's in May and now I have the best support group anyone could ask for.
* Both sites also specifically mentioned that if I wanted to get pregnant, August would be the month. I guess it's convenient that we're doing a FET cycle, huh?
* One of the sites warned me about the health of my ankles this month. I might be stretching this but I did almost break my ankle on Sunday. We were doing some major pruning on a tree out front and I backed up and almost fell down the front stairs. I slightly twisted my ankle.
Perhaps it would have been useful had the horoscope told me when I'd get some physical coordination?
So, there you have it. Predictions or coincidence?

Very cool. I hope the stars are right!! (:
I think that horoscopes are always interesting to read. Btw, I like the idea of you getting pg in August. :-)
It was the stars the Magi read to predict the time and place of the birth of Jesus and that he'd be a 'king'--which Herod mistakenly thought Jesus was going to rule Judea and thus wanted him dead.
So yes, the stars can be read to predict one's future.
Personally, I don't know of anyone now who has done this with great accuracy--each person has their own star--but that doesn't mean it cannot be done.
I am so praying that you are right though.
I tend to believe there are no coincidences. Things happen for a reason.
I found your site as well as the others in late May--and I cannot tell you what a blessing they have been.
So thank you, Best Wishes and God Bless.

I found this post completely hilarious. May the trend continue!!!
I hope the stars are right for you, too.
You are such a great support, too. I'm glad that we're all here for each other.
