Okay, so I saw this “Venus transiting 2nd house new job” thing pop up in my astrology app, and I was like, “Huh, interesting.” I’d been feeling kinda stuck in my old job for a while, you know? Just going through the motions. So, I decided to treat this as a little experiment. Could the stars actually influence my job search?
First thing I did? I cleaned up my resume. Like, really cleaned it up. New font, better wording, the whole shebang. I figured if Venus is all about beauty and value, my resume needed to reflect that. I even added a little color – nothing crazy, just a subtle touch.
Then, I started actually applying for jobs. Before, I was just kinda browsing, feeling overwhelmed. But with this Venus transit in mind, I felt… I don’t know… more proactive? I focused on jobs that seemed to offer not just more money (2nd house, hello!), but also a better work environment. Something that felt more aligned with my, um, values.
Putting Myself Out There
This was the scary part. I started networking. Ugh, I hate that word. But I reached out to some old colleagues, joined a couple of online groups related to my field, and even – gasp – went to a virtual networking event. It was awkward at first, but I tried to channel that Venus energy – be charming, be confident, show my worth.
- Updated my LinkedIn profile – new picture, updated skills, the works.
- Practiced my “elevator pitch” – you know, that short summary of who you are and what you do.
- Sent out a few “feeler” emails to people I admired in my industry.
The Waiting Game (and the Rejections)
Of course, it wasn’t all sunshine and roses. I got rejected. A lot. It stung, but I tried to remember that Venus is also about self-worth. I kept telling myself, “It’s their loss, not mine.” I also started visualizing myself in a new, better job. I’d imagine myself walking into a bright, airy office, feeling confident and happy. Cheesy, I know, but it helped.
The Breakthrough!
Then, it happened. I got an interview! And then another… and another! The final interview was with the CEO, and we just clicked. We talked about our shared love of… wait for it… gardening! Seriously. I felt like Venus was winking at me. A week later, I got the offer. More money, better benefits, and a company culture that seemed genuinely supportive.
So, did Venus transiting my 2nd house get me a new job? I can’t say for sure. Maybe it was just a coincidence. But it definitely gave me the motivation and focus I needed to make a change. It was like a cosmic kick in the pants. And hey, even if it was all in my head, the end result is the same: I’m starting a new job that I’m genuinely excited about. Now If it really all goes bad, I’ll have something fun to talk about later, right?
