BitchScopes for June 1-7

BitchScopes for the Week of June 1



This week I think we need to make room for tension, aggression, and anger. On some level this will show up whether we make room for it or not. But we NEED to create some allowance now. Anger is a healthy emotion when you allow yourself to experience it in context. As I write this, protests and riots in Minnesota over the murder of George Floyd rage out of control. A friend near there said the National Guard was setting up downtown. Another friend who works for a large tech corporation there said her company has promoted large conference calls for employees to just share their thoughts and feelings. We have to do that now. And that means we have to hold space for people to be in pain and to be angry. It’s uncomfortable AF. We must face ourselves.

The full moon this week is also an Eclipse. It’s the first of a new set of eclipses in Gemini/Sagittarius. This is not going to be a gentle or sweet full moon. This is going to continue to highlight justice, law, and beliefs. Are we in alignment with what we do and say? The
moon is opposite Venus retrograde, which could place tension on fragile or unhealthy relationships. The moon also squares Mars, so impulsivity and anger are possible. We are guided to speak our truth, stand in our beliefs, and to hold that space for one another. It’s harder than it sounds. Whatever it is that lights your fire may show up this week. Listen to it, because it is guiding you, and all of us, to a new path.

June 3: Sun conjunct Venus the desire for harmony is strong.

June 3: Venus square Mars could be sexual tension, could be angry tension, could be angry sex...

June 5: Full Moon In Sagittarius Lunar Eclipse - Sun in Gemini opposite Moon in Sagittarius. Moon Square Mars. Moon Opposite Venus. Mercury sextile Uranus.

Spiritual experiences, anger, impulsiveness. Do our beliefs line up with our speech? Do we walk the talk?  Unexpected news or conversations.  Electric thoughts.

June 6: Sun square Mars - Competition, assertiveness, conflict


ARIES

You may feel more open hearted and emotional than usual, and have a hard time putting your finger on what the deal is. Your soul is calling you into action, a natural state for you. Communication with those close to you, or those you haven’t connected with in awhile, will be helpful. Your romantic life feels strong, as does your career track. Someone higher up is paying attention and you may be able to step into a more meaningful position.

TAURUS

You’ll be feeling yourself, and a bit more creatively inspired. Even finances are lining up better for you. Emotionally, things are deep and you’ll probably be craving closeness. If you can’t get it in your current relationship, Venus retrograde may be telling you something. Be aware of what you attract during this time, because until Venus goes direct, your picker may be off. This goes for investments as well.

GEMINI

You will get a much needed injection of self esteem and confidence. Love you express will come back to you as well. If it doesn’t, consider that relationship out of balance and stop over giving in order to earn love. You may feel sensitive and drawn to romance, art and beauty this week. It may not be your most productive work week. This week’s work is happening in your heart space.

CANCER

Tired, but restless. Anxious. You would be well advised to be a little selfish this week and take care of yourself. REALLY. Look at your daily routine and see if you can carve out some time and space to do something other than care for others. Remain cool if and when you butt heads with those close to you. Things will settle down around you.

LEO

You may feel kinda mushy this week and miss your social connections. An artistic or creative outlet would do you tremendous good right now. Don’t be shy about texting or calling your peeps. They need your sunshine as much as you need their love. You should feel a shift toward more lightness this week. Whew.

VIRGO

This might be a good week to redecorate, start a remodel, or paint. This could go for your home, or your office setting. You might even just feel happy to get some colored folders at work. Adding some joy to your home (or office, since that might be close to home for you workaholics anyway) could actually improve your productivity and your bottom line.

LIBRA

You should feel a shift this week, or at least I hope you will. Hope and light and the ability to take a deep breath should reappear. With some much discord around, you may feel burdened. But breakthroughs are coming. Planning for a little adventure of any kind might boost your mood and energy.

SCORPIO

Intimacy. (I feel like I talk about that a lot with you heehee) Deep conversations will lead to deep connections and intimate experiences (yes, even sexual intimacy). Using your words is important this week, as it will both prompt conversation, and promote that intimacy you crave. It could be uncomfortable at first, but you will break through with that laser ability of yours.

SAGITTARIUS

Naturally, you’ll be deep in thought this week trying to encounter the deeper meaning of the events. The eclipse may rattle you a little, so meditation and solitude might be a good way to shield yourself from unnecessary strife. However, if you do end up in a scuffle, speak your piece and keep it brief.

CAPRICORN

You might feel exhausted in almost every way. You need to give your brain and your body a break and you need to do it ASAP. Why? Because you are, well, to be cliche - essential. Give yourself permission to play more and work less, even if it is just this week (though downshifting for a couple weeks is not a bad idea!)

AQUARIUS

Your values and the values of those around you may be under a microscope this week. Its possible that the group(s) that you spend most of your energy on are no longer a great match for what you’re trying to accomplish. Try not to take things out on your family, because that’s not the group I’m referring to. Even though your family may not mesh with your ideals, and you may not expend a lot of energy there, its social and professional values that you will probably be observing.

PISCES

Home Sweet Home! That will be your oasis this week. Ironically, it is you, the most sensitive of the zodiac, who may experience some regeneration this week, despite all the chaos. Your professional life may be ready for a little make over. You may not know what to do just yet, but your awareness will help point the way.

Help Help I'm bein' repressed!

Before I say what I sat down to say, some background info.

I have been in the corporate world since I was 15. Non stop. The only time I wasn't working was when I had babies, and I took my whopping 8 weeks off, and when I lost my job in 2009 with everyone else. I have a degree in Small Business Management, and have worked in mom and pops, huge corps, and everything in between. I have worked in oil and gas, accounting, marketing, administrative, legal, communication, the arts, retail, wholesale, trucking, international trading, financial, and agricultural services. That just about spans the gamut of the facets of business.

I have been an artistic person for ever. And artsy people don't always mix well with the corporate world. I have been very successful doing so, thanks in part to my die-hard work ethic, chart full of Capricorn, and my experiences as a divorced/single mom supporting her kids. I have HAD to bite my tongue so friggin much over the years. And because I started working so young, I think I learned very early on that my opinion was not wanted. Often my opinion would be spoken by others (usually others who are male) and received with adulation. But at any rate, I learned as a young woman to shut up and do my job. That also resulted in my shrinking myself down to fly below the radar. My being small made other people happier.

It worked fine until I was in my 40s. I started shedding hair and fucks at an equal pace.

And at some point I just couldn't get in the box anymore. No matter how "safe" or "stable" the box appeared to be, I couldn't cram my glittery ass in to it anymore.

So even as I've developed this brand of mine, this brand of "give no fucks" and speak your mind, and own your inner bitch...I censor myself so much in order to make other people comfortable. I catch myself doing this and sometimes I even bounce it off of my partner, Patrick. Should I shut up? No one cares...

His reply: "fuck it, babe. You do you."

So to that end, here we go. I know that everything about Covid-19 is somehow controversial. Is it real or a fake conspiracy? Do masks help or are they useless? Or are they even harmful? Should we stay closed or open? Is the government benevolent or evil? Is it a vaccine or a plot? People literally argue about every fucking thing. And I'm kinda over it. Ultimately, the kind thing to do is not always the easy thing to do. Kindness sometimes means thinking of others before yourself, even if you don't like it. You don't have to bite your tongue like I did, but you also could just simmer the hell down and do the kind thing.

I am so tired of people talking about oppression and losing their rights.

To be clear, do people even know what “oppression” means?

Your freedoms haven’t been stripped. You can believe and preach and discuss whatever you want. Churches have had drive in and virtual services. Your freedoms are intact. God ain’t goin anywhere and isn’t attached to an address.

Honestly the way things are opening makes zero sense - some restaurants are open. I saw an open antique store downtown ...wtf is essential about that? But hairdressers are a no?

So I get that some people are pissed and frustrated. It’s all weird and random.

Let’s talk about “censorship”. Yes Facebook is taking down some posts and it’s stupid AF. breastfeeding women are bad. Discussions of the patriarchy are bad. But half naked women are ok? No! Fb is on crack.

But Facebook isn’t your only means of communication y’all. You can have a blog or a website and say whatever you want. The state isn’t filtering your “news”. Our news is delightfully and ridiculously unfiltered and unedited (and often unintelligent. Lol)

But my point- let’s stop throwing around chatter about oppressing our rights and censorship

We are still the free-est friggin country in the world. we are still a bunch of rebels who push envelopes. And that’s what makes us ‘muricans. But let’s stop whining so gd much.

There’s a big difference between “oppression” and inconvenience.

It’s Memorial Day. People laid down their lives, and continue to, so that we can say and believe whatever the hell we want. God bless our nutty country.

Don't agree? Ok. Don't care? OK.  Love you anyway.

Bitchscopes May 25 - 31

Action flows where thoughts go...


This week, where your mind goes, your actions will follow, and your actions can lead to rapid changes. So be mindful of your thoughts and manifest the hell out of this time. This week we also may be catching up on things we’ve put off, and remembering goals that got buried. Most of us will be feeling ourselves pretty strongly, and confidence is in the air. Clarity is a word that is mentioned more than once in this week’s scopes. Be an information sponge and soak it all up, but don’t show your hand just yet. The exception to that would be in your closest relationships, which will benefit greatly from your attention this week. Impulse is the word of the week. Follow your impulses, and beware of impulsivity at the same time. Capiche?

May 25 Mars sextile Uranus - craving for excitement, rapid changes

May 28 Mercury enters Cancer - thoughts and feelings go deeper

ARIES:

While you’re usually the King or Queen of DO-ing, this week you need to feel, and examine...ew! Try to avoid being reactive to others. . You may feel people are making demands of you, but their expectations may in fact be reasonable. A peaceful outlet will help you get in touch with what you need to be in touch with and to not be so easily ruffled. If running is your usual meditation, try walking intermittently. The break in your rhythm could bring needed insights.

TAURUS:

You may have some flashes of brilliance and lots of ideas. Take time to examine and plan before you throw money at anything right now. Your ruling planet is retrograde so caution is key with investments right now. In fact, your perceptions in general may be hazy. You and your significant other or BFF may not be quite on the same wavelength. Give yourself some space and try to be patient.

GEMINI:

This is a good time for you to journal, brainstorm, and examine some of your existing plans and ideas. Your brain is never quiet, but try to down shift the new idea machine just for now and fine tune some that are already developed. If you feel bajiggity or bickery, or give yourself an escape. This energy will pass if you don’t try to wrestle with it. Art would be a great outlet for your mental energy right now, and a healthy way to shift from brain space into heart space.

CANCER:

While you are naturally a feel-er, over the next few weeks you may be an idea machine. Collaboration may be very productive for you. Also during the next few weeks, things that have been on the back burner may show up again. New opportunities get a green light, even though planets are retrograde. Use your gut, as you always do. You’ll know what to say yes to.

LEO:

You might benefit from a bit of a withdrawal from people in general right now. Put yourself first and take time to do an inventory of your to-do’s and obligations. Are you enabling someone to be sort of helpless, or giving to someone else’s career more than your own? Tap into your creative genius and do yourself some favors for once.

VIRGO:

You could be really feeling yourself this week, and ready to mingle and make meaningful connections. They may be professional rather than personal, but hey, what’s new? There’s a reason you are successful. (Romance is by no means ruled out, however.) You may feel more impulsive than your usual well planned out self. And you may find yourself drawn to opportunities that are not your usual flavor. Follow your gut/heart.

LIBRA:

Clarity is on the menu this week. You may reach the knot at the end of your very long rope about a topic that is quite over-done. It takes a lot for you to say “peace out”, because you’d rather just have peace. It is important that you stand your ground on this issue, and it is very possible that peace will come after you do so. Your assertiveness in communication will benefit you professionally this summer.

SCORPIO:

You may be pleasantly surprised by some conversations this week. You may be given some clarity and insight about someone’s true nature. Issues of power and authority, your areas of expertise, may crop up as well. You’d be well advised to be a very good listener and very slow to speak. It isn’t necessarily negative, but it will yield useful knowledge if you can remain cool. And I know you can.

SAGITTARIUS:

Money and intimacy may be on your mind this week. Be sure you’re in control of the important aspects of your financial life. Don’t be too trusting (not something I’ve ever had to warn you about) of others’ expertise. Shield yourself from people who irk you and surround yourself with your closest people this week. I say this because you may desire time alone, and that’s good for you as well...but your closest most trusted people will bring you a feeling of security that you need right now.

CAPRICORN:

You may bump into your “previous lives” now and for a few weeks to come. Not literal previous incarnations, but people and experiences from your past. It may not be your favorite people, either. There is something meaningful in these interactions though. Milk it, work it, get what you can from these conversations. You’ll know what this means in the moment. Poker face will be useful AF, and your intuition will be strong.

AQUARIUS:

You’ll probably be feeling motivated for self improvement in some way in the coming weeks. Part of that may be your financial life and more practical ways of dealing with some aspect of it. You won’t have any trouble committing (wait what?! Am I on the right sign? yep…) to a project or educational pursuit. All of this will strengthen your career footing.

PISCES:

Don’t second guess, don’t compromise, and don’t budge. You have a tendency to over-give. But when it comes to your future plans, be selfish AF right now. Boundaries in professional plans will set the tone you will need to make great progress in the future. This new found assertiveness may have you feeling kinda sexy, too. So...go with that!
