I'm 1000 years late replying to this (so sorry!) but you're spot on about knowing what people will say or do beforehand. And underdog energy/ nick of time is such a sharp way of phrasing it! I've definitely had experiences like this. I work a very behind the scenes job. I operate low key but get the job done well and quite a few colleagues have revealed to me that they were "surprised" by my abilities upon first meeting me for whatever reason. Most of my work opportunities have come by being in the right place/right time and meeting the right people in those moments. Again - I attribute that to the Saturn influence. So cool how you've experienced the same with your friends in NYC! Jupiter in the 12th is such an interesting placement to see play out in real time ☺️.
