Star Struck Style

For most of July, I’m going to be working a different schedule because one of my full-time staff members is on vacation. Because the gym where I work opens up so early, that means that I’m waking up a few days a week as early as 3:00 AM.

I don’t mind getting out of bed in what most people would call “the middle of the night.” I enjoy the peace and quiet of the early morning when I can get some time to myself to drink a pot of coffee and catch up on the morning news. I also like to blog at this time of day when I’m fully-caffeinated and eager to start my day off on the right foot. Declaring my intentions to the universe every morning has become a productive part of my daily routine.

Nevertheless, 3:00 AM is a little too early for me to hit the ground running. For that reason, I might not be the most dedicated blogger this July. I suppose that I will be reblogging old posts more often than I will be publishing new ones.

On the bright side, the universe does seem to be taking care of me lately. I’ve had a few short-lived, tense aspects forming in my chart that seem to be occurring right around the time that I’m going to bed. All of the minor planetary alignments that make me the grouchiest are not happening while I’m at work, and for that I cannot be more thankful. I should also thank Venus for parking itself in my tenth house this summer, too, because it seems to be making things easier for me in general. What’s more, it’s going to be there until October. I could get used to this!

That being said, I could probably get used to getting up at 3:00 AM, too, but I don’t believe that I want to keep doing this forever. I barely have a social life as it is, and being in bed by 8:00 PM every night certainly isn’t going to help this early bird to make friends with the rest of you night owls, right?
