Re-Feminist History (aka Bitchstory)

Overall this week may be a little quieter than we’ve had for several weeks, but not without some minor challenges to your patience. Mercury enters Sagittarius, joining the sun. This boosts our feelings of overall well being, hope and optimism. Neptune has been a strong player in the last couple weeks, and is this week as well. It’s a week to take a deep breath and do things that bring you pleasure and joy. It will be helpful if you can just focus on yourself, because things may feel awkward and out of sync with the people around you. Nerves may be jittery for no apparent reason. It’s time to pull back and cruise - bake, make lists, watch movies, take it easy, even if you feel like you can’t possibly. It is not a good week to try to plan everything or figure things out. It is a good week to daydream. In order for Sagittarius’ optimism to reach you, you’ll need to clear some space in your head.

BitchScopes for November 23-30 (Note: generally Bitchscopes are for a Monday through Sunday period. The Full Moon Lunar Eclipse is on Monday the 30th, and it is included in this week’s so you can fully utilize and be aware of its offerings and energy.) Mercury is a busy bee this week.

One of the benefits of knowing what is coming up astrologically is the ability to utilize that energy to your highest benefit, so here you go.

Strip away the thoughts and beliefs of all the people around you and get to the heart of it...what do YOU want? Out of life? Out of relationship? Out of a job? Out of parenthood? Out of your food? Whatever! That’s exactly what this Full Moon Lunar Eclipse can help you uncover and achieve: alignment with your hear...

The outer planets are a bit calmer this week, but the personal planets might get us in a little trouble if we aren’t careful. Mars has just moved direct (last weekend on the 14th) so it isn’t moving full speed yet, and things we have bottled up or not been able to find the words for may come flying out at the wrong time. Personal relationships can intensify, both in good and bad ways. Jealousy may pop up. A little jealousy is not a bad thing...you’ll know when the threshold has been crossed. It may feel like relationships are more work than usual. We may feel a bit put upon in general, like life is all work and no play. The good news is that hard work will yield results, and we will feel more optimistic about working to achieve goals now than we have in a while. However...optimism may not find its partner, motivation, ready to actually DO much work. You may have to push yourself a bit. Watch that you have a filter between your brain and your mouth. And keep your feelings of je...
