Twas the Night Before Bitchmas (BitchScopes for December 20-27)

'Twas the week of Christmas and all thru the hood, 

ripples of worry and prayers for sprinkles of good.  

The humans were tired, and troubled, and sick, 

because in 2021, Covid was a real dick.  


Shopping was stressful and working retail was hell

Small businesses were struggling and trying to sell

Restaurant servers were sick of depending on tips

And people’s every rude thought passing their lips


Humanity was pretty damn sick of itself

And had even mostly retired that stupid Elf on a Shelf

The stockings were hung but not with much care

What did it matter if no family was there?



They were sick of the masks and sick of the rules

They were sick of the shootings in all of the schools

They were sick of the news and political fights

They were sick of the bullshit from the left and the right


So what could they do when no hope seemed close by

Just more bad news flying hither and nigh

Then some dreamer looked up and it donned on them: HEY!

There’s always hope in every new day


Just look at that sunset, and sunrise, without fail

Look at your dog, just happily wagging their tail

Over there a baby, giggling like mad

Like this is the best day they’ve ever had


Maybe it is, thought the dreamer, maybe I can smile too

Just because I exist, and hey! So do you!

Our hearts are still beating and our brains are so cool

Here we are working and playing and acting a fool


We all have something to offer, talents that are unique

To shape a better tomorrow, for the future we all seek

So the dreamer looked up at the sky for some inspo

From the planets and stars, and really God, for some info


Aries, next year, Jupiter in your sign will be rad

You will have opportunities many and meet new people like mad

A new chapter will open for your personal dreams

And lots of good luck and expansion will be yours it seems


Taurus, you’re due for a good time, its true

Not many have been through as much lately as you

But next year there’s money, and connections galore

And if you’re single, there could be something more!


Gemini your career is going to soar

the plans that you’ve made will open new doors

You’ll need to be tidy and light on your feet

Because you will blow the mind of everyone you meet


Cancer, next year should be gentler, thank Goddess for that

You’ve been busier than the Cat in the Hat

But you can stop juggling and slow down a bit

Because Venus will pull out your chair for a sit. 


Leo, your money will finally settle

You made it thru a rough patch and showed your real mettle

Advances in job and investments are near

And toward the end, there’s some love looming for you next year!


Virgo you have had a real rough ride

With money and love and your health on the side

But next year stability is coming to you

Congratulate yourself on seeing it through!


Libra next year you’ll feel plenty of smiles

Both romantic and financial gifts run on for miles

Things will calm down, and feel more at ease

You will have the freedom to do what you please


Scorp, you’re in for a good one when it comes to your heart

Love new or established will get a fresh start

Romantic elation, artistic and childlike expression

Are all in store for you in the 2022 session


Sadge, your hard work will pay off in spades

Next year there are great plans to be made

Your insides are growing and that’s always great

Especially if the timing is right, you may find a mate!



Cap, no surprise, your career will be hot

And you’re likely to do far better than not

Big payoffs, both with money and love

Are aimed right at you from the sky up above


Aquarius, you’ll be asked to work hard for some gains

But it won’t feel like it was work when it starts to rain

Commitment is possible, and that’s a good thing

Whatever the payoffs, they’ll make your soul sing.


And Pisces, you are so due for break

And it’s coming, with a bunch of money to make

Many invites and opportunities will appear

You’ll almost forget 2021 was a pain in the rear!


So all should take heart, and do what life asks

Because 2022 will be better, with or without masks.

Humanity will rebound, and start to care once again

Where we are going is just as important as where we have been


Sure it won’t be perfect, but its worth having great hope

That 2022 will have gifts and surprises, and may even be “dope”

(that’s teen slang for groovy, its not about pot

But if that makes you happy then hell, smoke it a lot!) 


Life is short and a precious magical gift

But sometimes is heavy and we all need a lift

So lift up each other, and lift up your eyes

When you feel lost, just look up at the Sky.
