BitchScopes for the week of May 18th



BitchScopes for 5/18 - 24


Last week 3 planets stationed retrograde, joining the already retrograde Pluto. In June, Mercury and Neptune retrograde, so it’s just a retro party summer! Bell bottoms and frosted eye shadow anyone? Ok that’s not necessary. But we will be in review, re-evaluate and re-adjust mode for many weeks to come. Maybe that’s why summers are vacation time...because we are not quite full speed ahead in life matters. And that's good.  Even though life feels like it is on pause due to the pandemic, things are slowly unfurling from hibernation.

This week the Sun enters Gemini, which, to me is the epitome of the summer vibe. But life these days is so strange and socializing is not what it was even a few months ago. Some of life is “re-opening”, but I suspect even that will be re-examined this summer. Regardless, it is so important, especially in this season, to connect with the people we love. If you can see them in person, great. If you can’t, make an effort to schedule a zoom happy hour or group face time chat.

Love, and the expression of love is important this week, and so is play and art and the child like energy that embodies summer for most of us. This is not likely to be the most productive work week. Your time and energy are better spent connecting with your heart and issues ruled by Venus. Enjoy it.


May 20 Sun enters Gemini - overall we will be more curious, mentally engaged, inclined toward logic, as well as more sociable, friendly, and talkative

May 20 Venus square Neptune - insecurities about appearance may surface

May 22 Mercury conjunct Venus - expression of love is emphasized

May 22 New Moon in Gemini 10:39 am pst - new friends, interests, ways of communicating. Especially since the North Node just moved into Gemini earlier in May. There is a fresh wave of information and Gemini energy headed for all of us

May 22 Sun trine Saturn - achievement and recognition

May 22 Mercury square Neptune - muddled communications, especially in business




ARIES

You may be pretty popular in the coming weeks, and as a result your calendar and to do list may be pretty full. You will feel energized and raring to go, but keep in mind that it’s ok to say No. Really.

Hey do you want to join our Zoom meeting Wednesday morning? We’re going to talk about income streams. You do? Awesome!

You’re fired! You’re supposed to say No!

Tap into your gut and do what FEELS like a good match for you in the coming weeks, or you’ll risk burn out. There is nothing sadder than a burned out Aries who won’t put on her running shoes…


TAURUS

Cue up your Money playlist, Taurus. This week that’s almost all of what will be on your mind. Almost...because you know what the rest of your mind is. Anyway, do your homework when it comes to money making opportunities. In this case, under the current energy, you’d be well advised to share your plan(s) with 1 trusted person who has a good head for whatever the plan is. But don’t overshare or share with the wrong people. You already know who this person is…

GEMINI

Happy YOU season! You’ve got the world on a string...ish. I mean, don’t get too cocky. But you do have great energy behind you for forging a path to success right now. You probably already feel it. The new moon falls in Gemini this coming Friday. Take advantage of this fabulous window of opportunity to focus on your bigger dreams and concoct a plan of action.

CANCER

You may bite off more than you can chew at work or on a project at home. Be reasonable with yourself. That same influence (its Jupiter) may have you really wanting to get into your sacred space and meditate or just observe some silence. Give yourself this gift, especially leading up to the new moon on Friday.

LEO

You wanna go to school, but you have to manage chores. Wait, whaaaat?! Who are you? You may be feeling very motivated to further your skills or education in the coming weeks. But you will feel the pull of your day to day duties. You’ll have to intentionally carve out time to finish that degree or certification. Also, I never thought I’d have to say this to YOU, but all work and no play makes Leo insane. Take a break!

VIRGO

Lookit you, takin’ professional risks! It looks good on you. You will be on point in all things job related, and while you are generally very practical, you may be a little more willing to think outside your very tidy box this week. Exploring some new options would be great for your career. It could be as simple as your desk, your work flow, your commute, your schedule. If its something bigger, like hiring someone, give it some thought first.

LIBRA

You will feel extra social and confident this week. You’ll be ready to take on a new project and learn new ways. You always love meeting new people, and this may happen too, even during this stay at home world we now live in. Your vibe attracts your tribe. Like minded people are waiting for your arrival.

SCORPIO

You’re never one to shy away from a deep conversation. But this week you could be delighted with the intimate sharing. It could be a boom chicka wah wah week, but at the very least, some great discussion could emerge. Slow down your pace of doing, and amp up the connection. You’ll find it very rewarding if you create the space for it.

SAGITTARIUS

You should be feeling more energized and optimistic this week, even as your ruling planet goes retrograde. Your inner life will expand and you could feel more focused. Team projects and plans with others should go well now, too. Your closest relationships are supportive and a great sense of strength and grounding for you.

CAPRICORN

For a crusty, serious goat, you might be feeling pretty smooshy this week. You may be thrown off by a feeling of neediness that you aren’t accustomed to. Don’t panic. Express what you need and spend some time receiving, for once. Take a moment to look at your probably very packed daily schedule and see if you can lighten it up a bit.

AQUARIUS

You will be in your hapy hippie zone this week, enjoying the simple things in life and a slower pace. Give that big brain a break and do some heART-work this week. Work is important but, don’t make it your #1 priority this week. Take a wee break (not sure why I am typing with an Irish accent) . Focusing on your close inner circle or partner will be the most rewarding for you.

PISCES

Oooh la la, you could be feeling pretty romantic. Your heart may be in your mouth, but in a good way. If there has been a difficult issue in your relationship, this week might be a great time to tackle it. Old wounds, especially with family, could find some healing in the coming weeks..
