Life is not easy for any of us. But what of that? We must have perseverance and, above all, confidence in ourselves. We must believe we are gifted for something and that this thing must be attained. – MARIE CURIE
Oof! Its going to be a doozy of a week! It isn’t bad (it could be intense), there is just a lot of “fight for change” brewing. That theme is not at all new, but it will be front and center this week. Not coincidentally, the Chauvin verdict is expected during this week. That verdict will have some serious ripple effects no matter what it is.
Taurus energy is building as the planets shift into that sign. Taurus is practical and grounded, but can be a bit clingy, so change may be awkward for some. Taurus is really good and indulging itself, and we are given permission to do that right now. This week’s BitchScopes had a strong theme of “desire”, which is pretty powerful. We often talk ourselves out of our dreams and desires because they don’t feel attainable. Yes, practicality is necessary...sometimes. But the world needs you to do what you came here to do, and that may not be wrapped up in a tidy, pragmatic package.
a very strong feminine energy afoot as well. Feminine energy is cooperative, less aggressive, and more inclusive. The Feminine Warriors are going to be out en force, and they are waiting in the wings to help you achieve your desires.
On top of all that, there is a full moon in Scorpio and Pluto stations retrograde. That is a lot of intense energy!

April 27
- Pluto retrograde in Capricorn - Pluto retrogrades until the 6th of October. This will pour a little cold water over things where we may have rushed ahead and been too enthusiastic, pumpking the brakes a bit. The outcomes of your efforts (or the collective efforts) will become apparent. On a collective level, we will see our grade on how we’ve handled Covid. There will be transformation. Expect major themes of change around institutions such as the police, school, taxes, and corporate America. Personally, you may become a little more conservative about sex and things in the 8th house. Many people will be in strong resistance to the changes that come up, and some of that won’t be seen until the very end of 2021.
This week’s Scopes are mini love letters deeply channeled from the Badass Goddesses within and around...
ARIES - Dear antsy, restless Bitch - if you feel stuck, it may be because you have put some seemingly reasonable limits on your hopes and dreams. Desire doesn’t require logic, however. And watering down your desire because someone told you it was the practical thing to do just waters down your feelings about it as a whole. Backtrack and remember how to dream. Use the full moon in Scorpio to release your limiting beliefs around your dreams and desires. Love, Goddess
TAURUS - Dear powerful, manifesting Bitch - You greatly underestimate yourself. Look at what you have already created and how far you have some. Why do you doubt that you can have your cake and eat it too? Your practical nature may actually hold you back in some cases. It is crucial that you use your emotions to create what you want. Feel what it feels like to have it. Use the moon to release self doubt. Love, Goddess
GEMINI - Dear Seeker Bitch - Success is already yours. But if the opportunity or sign or recognition comes in a form that you weren’t expecting, and hadn’t anticipated in all of your brilliant over-thinking, will you be able to recognize it? Use the full moon to release your expectations and open yourself to all the possibilities. Yes, you can...you already have. Love, Goddess
CANCER - Dear Moon Bitch - If you are unclear or confused about how to proceed into the future, look to the past. You have an entire entourage of ancestors to assist you and guide you. Even if they were not in alignment with you in life, on the other side they are your cheer squad. Lean into the magic of your family. Use the Scorpio full moon (how perfect!) to connect with your ancestral powers. Love, Goddess
LEO - Dear Little Firebitch - If you truly want something, sometimes you must fight for it. If you feel depressed, negative, or defeated, use your unyielding will to make things happen. It might be as small as getting up and going out to do something. Use affirmative language. “Today I will ______!” Sometimes inspiration has to be sought out. Use the full moon to release any of your negative or hopeless feelings and bring the power of the full moon down to remind your inner Sun what it needs to do. Love, Goddess
VIRGO - Dear Striving Bitch - Success is already yours. It has been yours for some time, but you have been busy looking at other people, either to help them, or because you want what they have. Acknowledge the victories of others and claim them as your own. You should celebrate! Use this full moon to release any deep and painful experiences that are ready to go. Truly confronting things that are painful within you will open you up to actually experience the abundance you have always wanted and deserve. Love, Goddess
LIBRA - Dear Imbalanced Bitch - Don’t try to contain your desire, your fire, your enthusiasm, but do make sure you don’t let your heart drive recklessly. Your naivety could get you in trouble. You may be in a situation where you feel you don’t know what you’re doing. Make sure your gut, heart, and mind all have a say in the action plan. Use the full moon to harness the wisdom that will balance your passion. Love, Goddess
SCORPIO - Dear Deep Water Bitch - You ain’t scared. You’ve been preparing forever. Trust your vision, your intuition, and your deep knowing. Use this moon, in your sign, to enhance your power, your vision, and your confidence. Ask the question and then be still and listen to the answer. The 3rd piece of the 3 piece puzzle is coming. Love, Goddess
SAGITTARIUS - Dear Dreamy Bitch - To have what you want, you need to go back to where you started. That’s where you will find the inspiration you need. Trust and be open, but don’t be naive or blind. Be practical in your steps forward, but be flexible enough to receive unexpected information and be willing to adjust course. Use this full moon to help you remember who you were, so you can remember who you are now. Love, Goddess
CAPRICORN - Dear Powerful Bitch - You are so much more powerful than you even realize. You are in a situation that asks you to exert your influence and stand your ground. You have made plans, now it is time to make decisions. When fear and doubt creep in, send them packing without any discussion. Tell doubt to pound sand. Ask the full moon to empower you. You’ve got this. Be a boss Bitch. Love, Goddess
AQUARIUS - Dear Chaotic Bitch - Creation requires chaos, and messy things don’t frighten you a bit. Sometimes things need to be undone so they can be redone. If you have to dismantle something you yourself built, that is not a failure. That is progress. Be in this confusing situation with acceptance and gratitude for your own brilliance. If you can’t see it, ask the full moon to help you feel it. You will create another great thing out of this, without question. Love, Goddess
PISCES - Dear Overwhelmed Bitch - Simplify, Purify, Modify. If the plan or situation feels confusing, make it simple. Meditate in nature and exchange ideas with the Earth itself. Whatever you are going to create or be next, it should protect the most innocent around you. Ask the full moon to help you think and be like a child. You are safe and supported. Love, Goddess
