Clutter in your home may reflect clutter you're holding onto in your inner life. Get tips on how to get rid of the "Clutter in Your Home, Clutter in Your Soul" this Saturday, August 23, when popular guest Anne Nordhaus-Bike returns to Frank Fontana's "Design Dude" show on WGN Radio AM 720 Chicago.
"The current astrology indicates this is a great time to work on clearing out clutter on all planes," Nordhaus-Bike explained. "The Sun leaves playful, creative Leo and enters detail-oriented, neatness-loving Virgo this Friday, August 22, at 11:47 p.m. CDT. That's just hours before our show on WGN Radio, so we're 'right on time' for talking about cleaning. Virgo focuses on order and cleanliness, and it has a passion for health, especially holistic approaches. Astrology is a wonderful, holistic way to tune in to Virgo energies and apply them in our everyday lives."
Over the summer, you may have felt like kicking back and just enjoying yourself. Now that Virgo time is nearly here, though, you likely will begin feeling ready to buckle down to business and tackle all those home improvement projects you've been putting off. "Virgo energy can help us all look at the minute details of every aspect of our life, figure out what's not working, and take practical steps to get rid of what we no longer need," Nordhaus-Bike added. "Afterward, we'll feel lighter and much more efficient."
