Re-Feminist History (aka Bitchstory)

There are SIX quincunxes this week. I find the quincunx aspect very interesting, but after having a DOZEN of them in August, and having felt the sting of their awkward adjustment energy, I’m over it. Next! More trines please! There are 5 more  quincunxes  in the remainder of September, making at least 11, and possibly making September at least somewhat similar to August (shit!) and some degree of uncomfortable... Again. Still. As usual. Ad nauseum. Fuck. I will say that I feel that  the slates were mostly cleared in August and that in September we begin to start something from scratch.  The New Moon in Virgo is a great opportunity for us to set intentions for creating and inviting things in our lives that we care about, activities that matter to us, and relationships that serve us better than the ones we left behind in August. The ground IS fertile. Because even after a fire scorches the earth, little green saplings will poke through the destruction as they reach for...

Well we have another heavy hitting week in the sky. I can’t remember a time when we didn’t. I honestly try to keep it light and hopeful around here, but the planets don’t lie. I am, however, an eternal optimist, and I do believe that difficult times give way to better times. The chaos that we feel individually is happening globally and to the whole collective. That is no consolation, really, but the point is, there are massive shifts happening and it's uncomfortable, but ultimately for our benefit. This week, the stand out event to me is Pluto (in Capricorn) square Eris (in Aries). Eris has been stirring things up since her discovery and addition to our collective consciousness in 2003. When she dances with Pluto, it is always a dance of passion. And by “passion” I don’t mean romance. Passion is about suffering. These 2 planets are constantly vying for supremacy. They have aspected each other in various ways over the last decades; it has been a Tango, it has been a Paso Doble, it h...

DejaVu?   In July we had a full moon in Aquarius, and this month we have another. There’s something about Aquary..us (its a reference to “there’s something about Mary”) - we have to pay attention to this. Aquarius rules technology, the future, change, doing things differently, freedom, community, humanitarianism and innovation. Jupiter is conjunct this moon, so whatever you (we) are releasing, it could be pretty obvious. Let’s talk about change… What hasn’t changed for all of us in the last 2 years? Life is very different. Society is changed. Interactions are altered. Jobs are evolving. We are being forced to do things in a new way. We aren’t particularly happy about most of it, but we have ALL been swept into these changes. The fact that this pandemic...this seemingly unending, ridiculous, awful, scary pandemic...is global is not to be ignored. This isn’t just the USA having to do something new, or any one country. WE ALL do. We have to look at the climate crisis ...

It’s a week of a bizarre number of quincunxes. There are 6 of these in this week’s aspects. August in general has a bunch of them. The Quincunx is awkward and requires adjustment to be resolved. That adjustment is not usually one we really like or are happy to make. It isn’t so much that anything here is painful, its just awkward and “Well shit. That’s not how I thought that was gonna go.” There isn’t a lot of soft or light hearted energy this week, so it's best to bring the softness to the table yourself. Try not to pick fights, be aware of your insecurities, be a good listener and try to be a team player. The New Moon we just had on the 8th is already doing its work to bring in what you’ve been manifesting (The Lion’s Gate made is very potent!), and that means adjustments will need to be made to make those manifestations fit. So if you look at the awkwardness in that way, it is a bit less irritating. Some of the scopes have some authority imbalances noted.  With these kind...

This week has the potential to be pretty bajiggity. If you’re new here, “bajiggity” is a spirit word (according to me) meaning uneasy, nervous, anxious. Uranus has a strong influence all week, which can bring physical anxiety, as well as mental monkey mind. Without question the biggest day of the week is Sunday the 8th. There is a New Moon in Leo, but it is also aspected by Uranus, AND takes place during the “Lions Gate Portal”. The Lions Gate Portal marks the rising of the star Sirius. Sirius is called our “spiritual sun”. With the rising of this star, a portal opens for manifesting and receiving information from a higher vibration. Realizations and ascensions can take place around this time.This is a period of high creativity and openness. Combined with the fact that it falls on a New Moon, all of this is enhanced. 8/8 is a very “lucky” and abundant day. All of the energy it bring is positive. However because Uranus is aspecting this moon with a square, things may feel chaotic and an...
