Looking for a new job has been very frustrating. I’ve been trying to think more positively but last night became worried again when I realized I have only two months before my unemployment runs out. When considering the time it can take for a background check alone (in some cases up to two months) I really don’t have much time, and keeping this in mind I told my son last night I decided out of desperation to apply for everything I can before the end of this months in hope of just getting a job, even if it’s something I don’t want, just to keep a roof over our heads.

So that was my mindset this morning when I received my horoscope in my email, which read:

A Prudent Approach
Libra Daily Horoscope

You may be more patient when pursuing your goals today, and cautiousness could compel you to make sure you’re truly prepared before moving forward. Your diligence could help you attain your dreams without disrupting your sense of Balance. You may want to proceed slowly and carefully today rather than rushing ahead. The research you do and the guidance you seek could help ensure that your efforts lead to a successful and fulfilling conclusion. This could mean taking the time to carefully consider a new position before accepting an offer, consulting a mentor before making any big decisions, or meditating before embarking down a specific path.

Approaching the future cautiously can decrease the chances that you will be taken unaware by unexpected or unpleasant circumstances. As you move forward, your understanding of the potential risks and rewards you may face can help you prepare for them. Little will surprise you when your progress is marked by caution because you’ll always be aware of what could lie ahead. Even as you look upon the future with hopeful eyes, your vigilance and care will protect you from unanticipated pitfalls and setbacks. And you’ll be more likely to consider all of the possibilities before striking out on your chosen path. When you are cautious today, you will learn to anticipate and confront the unexpected with Grace.

So my plan today is to check the job boards as I do every morning, save the jobs I might apply for tonight or tomorrow and continue with my online training in Microsoft Excel as I initially planned. I don’t want to jump into something I may regret later, and I will lean on the wisdom of the universe to guide me.
