Re-Feminist History (aka Bitchstory)

This week is very mercurial, both in the fact that Mercury makes several aspects and in that the mood will change a lot from week beginning to end.   The beginning of the week asks you to be particularly well connected to your body.  Your senses can guide you to breakthroughs. You’ll need to do some mental work to climb the hill of this idea.  But once at the top, the view will be stunning.  Sunday be aware of intoxication and illusion in regard to yourself and someone else.    Here’s this week’s planetary activities, which provide the over-arching theme of the week.  Below that are the weekly scopes by sign.   Apr 27 - Mercury enters Taurus - sensory input and information from the body becomes more important. Decision making can take a bit longer. When you speak, people will be inclined to listen.  Apr 29 - Pallas enters Aquarius - ability to see the big picture and to think futuristically Apr 28 – Mercury square Saturn- hard ...

This is rather an important week for all of us, astrologically. The highlights for this week are the potent new moon, and Pluto going retrograde. The New Moon brings the true opportunity for new beginnings. Pluto retrograde offers us time for deep reflection into our shadow, both as a species, and as a country. We need to dig deep and pull out what we are really made of - which is stardust and badassness. On the surface, we are bajiggity and fearful. But underneath that is fertile soil for significant growth. Here’s this week’s planetary activities, which provide the over-arching theme of the week. Below that are the weekly scopes by sign. Everyone gets a nickname this week, which I found very amusing... Apr 21 – Sun square Saturn - feeling of restriction, heaviness (duh, Kel. Well, I just report the news, I don’t make it up) Apr 22, 10:25 pm – New Moon Taurus - this new moon could bring difficult shifts. It is conjunct uranus (in Taurus) and square saturn (in Aqu...

Well hey, Bitches. How the fuck are you? I sat down to write and I really couldn't.  But I found this old blog entry which I feel is somehow appropriate, because Depression is the new thing for so many people right now. And the anniversary of my dad's passing is coming up. Mostly, I chose this because I don't have anything else. But I suspect out there somewhere is a reason that I chose this. Because we are stuck in this stillness, where time stands mostly still, and we are all grieving.  You let me know...  And I did this rambling little video . Love you. Daylight is Brutal September 23, 2017 So...i’m depressed. Yep. it was hard for me to reach the point where I can say “I’m depressed” but I’m here now. And yep, I am depressed. Maybe the more I say it the better I will feel. I’m depressed. Nope. It isn’t really helping. So I guess this kind of thing happens when you’re a human. I read that somewhere. Oh I also teach that. Cuz I’m like a...

I have been asked a few times about the astrology around this pandemic.  So I thought I would touch on it a little. Though more than the pandemic itself, my focus tends to be on the societal ripples from the pandemic.  For a while now, the astrology community has been making a big deal out of 2020.  It’s almost cliche, because of the weird futuristic fiction novel vibe of the number 2020. But here we are, in the future with our floating cars and tinfoil fashion and telepathic implants. Wait, sorry. Disregard. I have jet lag from the Time Machine.   Anyway, with the big planets recently all piling up in Capricorn, it has triggered a lot of “stuff” (understatement!). I call it the Cap convention, because its like the G6 summit of planets, with the power houses getting together and conjuncting each other to create powerful changes and shifts.  So let’s look at who has been in attendance and a little about that planet.  But I’m tired of polit...

Moment of honesty and transparency, guys?  Sometimes I have no idea what the fuck I’m doing in the Spiritual community.  I look around and feel like such an asshole because I see a lot of what I consider be to be bullshit that’s  being peddled as THE EASY ANSWER. 3 ways to manifest, 10 ways to heal, the one thing you’ve been missing, 8 steps to financial perfection, 45 steps to the body you love, the one true path of happiness, the 5 steps to everything you ever wanted. Um well, I’m sorry to break it to you, but, maybe you didn’t read the contract for being human.   Article 409, paragraph 3.1.z.a, line 9,854:  Life as a human is usually hard.  The inner dialogue I have with myself in these moments of frustration are complex, and confusing.  For your enlightenment, I shall now compare my inner world to that of Seinfeld…  It starts with all  my Capricorn, which I think is Jerry.  My Mercury in Cap, which longs for proper...

Bitch memo for the week of 4/1-4/7 I’m noticing that it’s not just me that is sad.  We all seem to be. And a lot of people are bored (which is just frustration really) and some people are sick of themselves.  Our busy lives create lots of ways for us to avoid uncomfortable feelings and memories. Ultimately though, if you zoom out to the bigger picture- we are all grieving.  Fear, anger, denial... all of that on a massive scale all over the world. We ARE all connected. The thing is we’ve also started to realize how much we affect and need each other. We’ve started to realize how much we affect our environments, big and small.  And I truly hope and pray that those things will stick with us when we come out of this. In the meantime, we just grieve together. I love every one of you (even though I have never wanted to be in any grocery store with any of you and you’re all cramping my grocery delivery buzz.) let’s keep circulating love- it’s sterile, healing, free, a...

Our collective Root Chakra It is a challenge to remain grounded when everything seems uncertain here in the US.  We try to love all people all over the world, we Light Workers.  But the US is a huge energy in the global game, and when our energy is off, it ripples.  And when people in this country are suffering, we feel it particularly poignantly.   Be aware of the energy you feel right now, and in the coming weeks.   The root chakra is way off, as a whole.  I know most of you know how to balance your root chakra already, but here are some key points:   The color red Use of any stone or crystal that you feel connected to that is red or black (my favorites are garnet, onyx, red jasper, hematite, black tourmaline) Connecting with the earth, going out in nature, hugging trees Physical movement of the body Eating root chakra oriented foods: particularly root vegetables, animal proteins, and any red food (berries, apples) Ess...
