Free full moon ritual

Image
The $11 level on my Patreon gets you BitchScopes plus moon rituals, plus goddess rituals.  This Wednesday, April 1st is a full moon in Libra.  Libra isn’t just about relationships and art; it’s about balance and justice and reflections.  What of ourselves do we see in our closest relationships? And how do we feel about what’s reflected back to us?  What do you do with that information is the whole point.  So here’s a release ceremony for your Full Moon.  Soft Body, Hard Standards April isn’t about becoming someone new. It’s about telling the truth… and then living like you meant it. 🌕 Full Moon in Libra — April 1 The Balance Reset You already know what’s off. This moon doesn’t reveal something new… it makes what you’ve been managing impossible to ignore. Ritual: Write two lists: • What I give • What I receive No editing. No explaining. Ask yourself: Where am I abandoning myself to keep this balanced? Keep the truth. Release the performance. Invocation: I r...

Black Women Invented Your Life (And History Forgot to Mention It)

Image
  Listen to the latest episode here:  Bitchstory Join Patreon and get weekly  Bitchscopes  & more!    There’s a version of history most of us were taught… neat, clean, predictable… a handful of (mostly white, mostly male) inventors lined up like a greatest hits album. Light bulb. Telephone. Cotton gin. Repeat until graduation. Meanwhile… actual life? Way messier. Way more interesting. And, inconveniently for the textbook industry, built by a lot more people than they bothered to mention. Including Black women… who were out here solving real, everyday problems while being ignored, dismissed, underpaid, or straight-up shut out. And somehow… we all just collectively learned nothing about that. Cool cool cool. So let’s fix it. The Women Who Made Everyday Life Work What I love about these women is that they weren’t sitting around trying to invent something flashy or impress a room full of men in suits… they were solving actual problems. Laundry. Per...

The Pack Horse Librarians: Appalachian Bad Bitches on Mules

  There are certain women history quietly tried to keep in a filing cabinet labeled “miscellaneous.” We’re not doing that. This week on Bitchstory, we’re riding straight into the hills of Kentucky during the Great Depression to talk about the women of the Pack Horse Library Project — a New Deal program under the umbrella of the Works Progress Administration. Translation: the federal government paid women to strap books onto mules and ride through the Appalachian mountains delivering literacy door to door. Yes. That happened. And it is exactly as badass as it sounds Context: Poverty, Mountains, and Zero Infrastructure In the 1930s, parts of Appalachian Kentucky had some of the lowest literacy rates in the country. Roads were barely roads. Schools were scattered and underfunded. Libraries? Mostly nonexistent. So the WPA did something radical: They hired local women — many of them poor themselves — and paid them about $28 a month to deliver books across rugged terrain. These...
