Re-Feminist History (aka Bitchstory)

BitchScopes for the week of July 20th I know my dates are overlapping from week to week just a smidge. This Monday we have the New Moon I talked about in last week’s Scopes. And on Monday the 27th we have a few significant things to talk about that I don’t want you to miss. I can not state enough that this double Cancer New Moon is an opportunity to get your intentions straight as we enter a new phase. I know, I know, we’ve all been talking about new beginnings every months since forever. But it is clear in the world that things are at a boiling point. This is the alchemy of life. When things are heated they become something new. It isn’t as thought we will wake up one Wednesday and go “woohoo everything is different!”. It’s more like watching your own child grow, in that you don’t notice all the little changes when you see them every day. But one day you recognize that they’ve grown. We are entering a new cycle, personally and collectively, and it happens slowly, but al...

My most glittery apologies for the absence of BitchScopes last week.  I was stuck in bed with a pinched nerve in my back.  If you read my last BitchScope intro, I was talking about the eclipse closing out old chapters, shelving old stories, and big, significant healings from the past.  This back injury definitely has an emotional component to it. (I talked about it on BitchSplaining with Crisann last week)  I just did not have the ability to sit at my desk or even to focus on writing for the several hours that it requires.  But I’m back, no pun intended.  I saw a Doctor I really liked (which is unusual) and got some relief.   So this week we are focusing on the transits from 7/13-7/19.  However, on 7/20 we have a very significant lunation to discuss and I don’t want to talk about it after the fact, so I’m including it in this week’s scopes.   We have a double new moon. Some are calling this a “Black Moon”, but, similar to a Blue Mo...

I hope you’ll forgive the absence of BitchScopes this week.  I am sidelined with a gnarly back injury and I could not will myself to sit at the computer for hours.   In place of scopes I’ve pulled a couple cards from my two decks    My second deck, Resistance is Futile, speaks to the emotions we repress.  Repressed emotions will often express (involuntarily) as anger.  Anger is the easiest and basest emotion to grab on to.  Sometimes what comes out as anger is actually fear or sadness (or grief)  One of these cards talks about fear being oppressive and holding us down, and back.  The other card speaks to the fact that even during times when you feel like crap, even if you’re going through difficult transitions and painful transformations, you are still being blessed. You are still fabulous. The fact that you are going through a transformation makes you MORE fabulous!  When we go through difficulties, it’s important that we allow ou...
