Venus to the rescue - BitchScopes for August 1-8

Well, HellOOO August. In true Leo fashion, August starts off with a bang. On Sunday July 31, Uranus conjuncted the North Node, which presents shake ups to the direction we are headed.

I would like to interject that I am SO.TIRED. of living in extraordinary times. Boredom, where art thou? I miss thee…

Ok anyway, then on August 1st Mars hops into the line up, creating this triple conjunction that I’m sure you’ve heard about several times now. This is very rare. Uranus and the North Node meet up every 15 years, but they haven’t been in Taurus together since ancient times - i.e. a long ass time ago! To have the 3 of them together is remarkable. And do we ever need some Divine shake ups here on Earth! Everyone be cray! All the countries and all the humans and errrrthang be cuckoo! A friend of mine was commenting on the very hot weather here and jokingly said “does God hate us?” Another friend replied “I would if I was God”. It made me chuckle. Sometimes I wonder if God/Goddess regrets how much free will we have. But I digress…

So….the month starts off with this major shake up. There’s a sense of urgency, sudden changes, plot twists, total upheavals. Can’t wait. Good times. The good news is that this isn’t exactly a personal experience, it is more of a societal or collective vibe. But Mars is a personal planet so I think we might feel frustrated and have to keep our impulsivity in check.

Unexpected love and/or money could show up, because Venus enters, stage left, tosses her lovely hair, gazes at us with her twinkling eyes, and distracts us all with charm and beauty and sexual goodness. There is a strong theme of feminine energy and healing the feminine this week, as well as some good love and sex juju for relationships.

You should check in with yourself and see how you might be censoring yourself unnecessarily. This could be sexual - maybe you want something from your partner that you’ve not asked for. Or it could be that you water down your personality to not rock the boat at work. Work on letting those inhibitions go. This is the work of the current lunar nodes in Taurus and Scorpio. In order to realize and feel the stability we long for, we have to release the shit that drains us, and in Scorpio, that’s wounds, shadows, secrets, taboo stuff, etc. Let that shit go! Holding it in is holding you back.

As next week begins, there could be some relationship bumps with jealousy, or just intensity in general. Looking ahead to the month of August overall, our best bet is to keep our energy close to us, focus on our own healing, and stay light on our feet as course corrections occur. Where we feel frustrated or stifled, we can recalibrate and find solutions. Reactionary energy is not the best use of your personal resources. Be chill, Bitch.

Love you all. Thank you for the little messages and emails that you send me. When you tell me before a reading, “I love BitchScopes”, I store that shit up and it keeps me going when life feels sloggy (is that a word?). I hope you are following me on Instagram (@I_am_KellyMc and @Bitchstory.pod). I am interacting less and less on Facebook. I’m trying to do TikTok but I just don’t like it. I am a fixed sign and I do not like changes damnit! (I also hate how when I open the TikTok app, instantly there is sound blasting at me, and it's usually not pleasant.) But I am feeling sorta OK about Instagram, even though they are screwing it up and making it TikTok-y. That is actually a great illustration of the current energies….Be your unique, original, badass self. Don’t morph yourself into something just because it makes other people comfortable or it's the current trend. YOU need to be comfortable in your own flesh suit, and that means letting go of outside pressures and expectations. Changing the world starts with changing individuals, and that means healing your own shit.

I hope you can feel the Venusian vibes this week.



ARIES - You can find comfort and feel soothed when you are at home this week. You have a great gift for problem solving at work while Mercury is in Virgo, but you’re better off directing most of your energy into your home life. Check yourself to make sure you’re not using your keen mind and detective skills to be too nosey about other people’s lives or business. Mind your damn business, and use your creativity to decorate your house.

TAURUS - You will feel your best this week when you are connected with your friends and peers. Good conversation and company will fill your cup. Romance drama can be diffused with playfulness, lightness, and fun. If you’re having romantic drama, again, it’s time for you to pull your energy back from the source of the drama, especially if it is your ex. If your thoughts and memories are coloring your mood, you gotta let that shit go so you don’t poison the water of your current relationships.

GEMINI - This week you should think about things that feel luxurious. It might be a fancy massage, or a scented bath. It might just be a candlelit day curled up on the couch with some really tasty snacks. Indulge yourself to comfort yourself. You will be in problem solving or fix-it mode with things around the house, or maybe (I hope not) a family squabble. Let go of the need for things to be intense in order for them to feel important, especially at work. Not everything you do needs to be a profound and world-changing feat.

CANCER - You have the attractive and seductive powers of Venus in your 1st house this week. This is a good time for a new hairdo, or wardrobe upgrade if you feel an itch for that. Otherwise, enjoy the goddess energy at your fingertips. Misunderstandings will be solved with relative ease, in part because of Mercury in your 3rd house, and in part because of that Venusian charm you have access to. Work on letting go of being a drama queen, especially as it relates to any creative projects you have.

LEO - Family drama may have you feeling like hiding and just meditating until it all goes away. If you can avoid getting pulled into any family scuffles, do. Your relationship, or your ego, may feel like it needs a little more privacy, or protection, possibly from the family drama. Overall, intimacy and seclusion might soothe any rough edges you feel this week. This is a good week for you to re-do your budget, shuffle your money around, and otherwise solve financial issues.

VIRGO - You should have pleasant interactions and friend experiences this week, thanks to Venus’ placement in your chart. Mercury in exaltation in your 1st house will give you lots of confidence and you might speak up for yourself more than usual. Your problem solving abilities will be super on point. Use your powers for good, though, and avoid any petty arguments. Yes, you can win them, but it is usually unimportant. Avoid “right fighting”, and focus on your friends and people in your tribe, rather than trying to “convert” people.

LIBRA - You will be a success magnet this week. People you meet can help you on your path. Mercury is transiting your 12th house, and you might be prone to “ennui”, thinking about stuff in the past, and you might be afraid of sharing your opinion, or receiving judgment. Guess what…fuck that. You are already a success, and speaking up for yourself is healthy, and other people’s opinions are …plffffft. Avoid getting caught up in “keeping up with the whoevers”. Don’t value yourself based on what your income is, or how nice your house is. Your value is not in material things, it's in your heart.

SCORPIO - Relationship drama…you? Um, yes. Intensity and “passion” in relationships aren’t necessarily an indicator of relationship health. If you tend to be attracted to “passion”, let’s figure that out. For real. Call me, because this is my area of expertise. If you know this about yourself and it's something you’ve been working on, great. If you need respite and soothing, you will find it with your friends and peers. Go on a trip with your pals. Find some adventure with your tribe.  This is also a call to action for you to actively release parts of your personality that you don't need anymore. It's ok to become the actual person you are now. The parts of you that you no longer identify with are dead weight. 

SAGITTARIUS - Career or job is a big focus for you right now. Making money makes nearly everyone happy. You have good money making juju in your favor right now, so jump on it. Mercury in Virgo transiting your 10th house gives you a keen ability to problem solve in the public sector. If you need some PR, you might be the best person to do it! Boredom is a huge motivation killer for you, but everything in life isn’t an adventure. Jobs are sometimes boring so learn to be reliable and dependable and don’t fall into the trap of something having to be deep and meaningful every hour of the day.

CAPRICORN - You are both the counselor and the client at the moment. On one hand, you may be giving advice about relationships, but you also may need some of your own wisdom. Your problem solving abilities and skills for spotting the flaw in things has given you a wisdom not everyone has. You are always one of the wisest people in your group anyway, but If you don’t currently have friends who you can lean on for advice, it might be time for a tribe upgrade.

AQUARIUS - “Work” is a strong focus for you at the moment. Not necessarily “career”, so much as the day to day grind within it. Does your routine work for you? If it causes you stress either because it’s too loose or too rigid, make some changes. A good routine can soothe you when life is crazy. Be careful of falling into the trap of defining yourself based on the work you do or career you have. If there are issues in your current workplace, or with people in your regular routine (appointments with clients or service providers), you currently have extra ability to discern people’s motives, and that could be a huge help in solving problems.

PISCES - The planets are lined up to give you some great relationship juju right now. You are both charming and romantic yourself, and are able to attract the same, thanks to Venus’ placement in your current chart. Be aware of how you may hide behind religion, intense opinions, or dogmatic beliefs. As a sensitive person, this is understandable. But it can lead to unhealthy things (cults!). Learn how to enjoy small talk and lighter life experiences.

Bust out the catnip - Leo New Moon - BitchScopes for July 25-31

This is a week I look forward to every year - the Leo New Moon. I love Leo season, and this new moon will offer a lot of comfort and respite from the harsh world full of bullshit and assholery that we have all grown so exhausted from. Leo is heart centered, proud and confident, as well as playful and expressive. Even when we don’t feel confident, Leo season sprinkles a little of its magic on all of us. As with every new moon, you should take advantage of this opportunity for a fresh start by doing some work manifesting or setting intentions. 

Because I am surrounded by cats, I get a lot of Leo energy every damn day. Dogs just look at your with their plaintive eyes, as they beg for food while you eat. They are not generally as “in your face” (literally) as cats are. Cats are not subtle about what they want. One of my cats scratches at the door at night (for hours) if I don’t let him sleep with me. One lays on my face when he wants affection. One paws my face if she wants to drink from the faucet. She slaps my face in the wee hours of the morning when she wants out of my room (after she’s insisted on being in the room, mind you.) They roll on their backs when they want rubs. They push their faces into my plate when they want food. They put their butts in my face for what reason I can only guess. They just straight up as for what they want. I love dogs, but dogs are so much more people-pleasing. They are happy with the bare minimum and will tolerate so much more than cats. They are loyal to a fault. Cats on the other hand are like “love me or fuck you”.

There is a time to have dog energy, and there is a time to have cat energy. Many of us have been dogs for a long time. I think after 40, women become progressively more cat-like. I greatly admire young women in their 20’s who are as bold as my friends who are in their 40s and 50s. (I would be president of some small country if I was as bold in my 20s as I am now!)

Anyway, cats are in tune with what they want, vs. “what do you want to give me?” In addition to the other Leo traits, it also rules romance and sex. Venus conjuncts Lilith this Wednesday, so unconventional romance is possible, or it could just be a night where you let your kink fly.

The new moon is on Thursday. Set goals for achieving various kinds of satisfaction, getting your needs met, and asking for (errrr demanding?) exactly what you want. To figure that out, though, you have to listen to your heart, not your head. Mercury is active this week, so you may feel challenged to tune in to your desires vs. some intellectual rationale. Get quiet and connect with your heart, your feelings, your desires. Write them down, but state is as though it has already happened and you feel “xyz” about having/achieving it. Leo is a fire sign, so I would absolutely burn your slips of paper (have a bowl of water nearby). Art, dancing, orating, theater, and generally not giving a fuck are all very Leonine, so feel free to incorporate any of that into your ritual.

There is some tension and anxiety present in this week’s stars. Also, communication issues, the call to use your talents for the greater good, and unexpected opportunities are all on the docket. Jupiter begins its annual retrograde, this year in Aries, and this offers an opportunity to reflect on our general direction and beliefs in life. Do your beliefs support your desires and goals? Listen to your heart.


ARIES - This new moon falls in your 5th house of play, romance, and all things Leo. If you’ve been sitting on any creative projects, this Leo season is a great time to pick it back up and bring it to fruition! Jupiter will begin its retrograde in your sign over the next few months and then back into Pisces. It will start in your 1st house, so you may feel particularly introspective and desire to reexamine how you present yourself to the world. What do you believe about yourself? You may experience a mini existential crisis…why am I here and what am I doing? Or you may just change your hair do. Don’t sweat it too hard, it’s temporary and you’re doing fine!


TAURUS - The Leo new moon falls in your 4th house of home and family. Is it time to snaz up your walls? Maybe your home needs more music. This is a great time to go through old photos and maybe put some out that you haven’t looked at in awhile. Look at pictures of yourself as a kid and see what it brings up for you. Jupiter will begin its retrograde in your 12th house of “all the things”, as I like to call it. This is a house of spirituality, and also your shadows, secrets you’ve buried, (intentionally or not), and ways you may isolate yourself (again, maybe unintentionally). So over the next few months, you might be more introspective than usual. Make sure you’re connecting with your loved ones regularly.


GEMINI - Your conversations are about to get spicier! Leo rules your 3rd house of communication and your immediate environment and neighborhood. There could be drama when you mix Leo and Gemini! If you have a neighbor that is doing something you don’t like, it might stir up some dust. It could also be a sibling. This could also lead to good drama, exciting self expression, and fun social events. Live it up! Jupiter will begin its retrograde in your 11th house which rules friendships, associations and your dreams and ambitions. You might be thinking about old friends, or reassessing some of your connections.


CANCER - Get creative with your money, honey. Leo rules your 2nd house of earned income. Creative endeavors can make you money during this season. The new moon is a great time to start new projects anyway, but with this placement, you have the goose that laid the golden eggs! Jupiter will begin its retrograde in your 10th house of career and public image. You might find yourself rethinking your career path, or wanting to tweak it (perhaps to include more creativity all the time).


LEO - Happy new moon! RAWR. This week is all you, bitchwhiskers! The moon is dark, but the spotlight is on you. What will you say and do? What do you WANT? Examine how you do or don’t stand in your power, or ways that you give your power away too easily. Jupiter will begin its retrograde in your 9th house of experience and education. This is a natural placement for Jupiter. You may be revisiting education goals and ideas, or rehashing a travel plan. If you are traveling soon, be flexible and book your flights so that late flights don’t screw up your whole trip. It’s not like Mercury retrograde, but all retrogrades are best approached with flexibility. You may also wax a bit more philosophical and begin to reexamine your personal belief systems. Whatever it is, it's all for your highest good!

VIRGO - You’re entering deep waters this week. This Leo new moon hits your shadowy 12th house. You may just need a nap, period. You may crave a bit of solitude, or a little trip by yourself. Get reacquainted with the darker parts of yourself. Jupiter will begin its retrograde in your 8th house of secrets, taboo, intimacy, and transformation. Jupiter is also very psychic in the 8th house, especially when retrograde. Your intuition may be off the charts for a few months so take full advantage of following your gut!

LIBRA - Stop, collaborate and listen! Um…this Leo new moon hits your 11th house, so creative endeavors with associates and friends are favored. Lean on your people for inspiration. Find your muse. Be the drama queen, in a good way! Jupiter will begin its retrograde in your 7th house of partnerships. This gives you an opportunity to examine how things are going, how you show up for your loved ones and how they show up for you. Balance, or at least a reciprocal relationship, is the goal, and this time of introspection can help you get there.


SCORPIO - This Leo new moon hits your 10th house, making your career your current stage. Scorpio might be shy about being in the spotlight, so maybe you’ll work backstage…but you’ll be calling the cues…and the shots. What are your ambitions? Are you pointed in the right direction? Use this new moon to take stock and set new intentions to take full advantage of this time. Jupiter will begin its retrograde in your 6th house, which can also relate to career. The 6th house is more about your work environment, how you serve others, and your habits, health and routines. You will have a few months to assess any bad habits and create new ones before Jupiter slips into Pisces and you forget what you’re doing.


SAGITTARIUS - This Leo new moon invites you to look at your long range goals and plans. Leo resides in your house of rulership, the 9th. Education and travel are some themes you’ll want to put up on your vision board. What do you want to learn? Where do you want to go? What do you believe? You know…little stuff. Ha. Jupiter will begin its retrograde in your 5th house of fun and creativity. Examine how you can experience more joy in your life. This is a great time of introspection and a good opportunity for you to get back in touch with your inner child. What did you get or not get in your childhood and how can you use or correct that now?


CAPRICORN - The new moon in Leo hits your 8th house of “other people’s money”. Set some goals around paying off loans and refinancing where needed. This is also a good time to dig deep and investigate things. If you are working on yourself, use this opportunity to get some therapy, dig into some astrology, or any kind of research that feels fairly personal. Jupiter will begin its retrograde in another water house - the 4th. Who is your family? If you’re interesting in genealogy, this period of time would be great for looking into your roots. You might also be focused on your physical home, so use Leo season to kick start your project or house hunting. Get your credit in order, look for good loans, etc.


AQUARIUS - Your personal relationships are about to get a boost of fun and romance with the new moon hitting your 7th house. Your work relationships could benefit from some extra creative energy as well. This is a great time to let your light shine bright and notice who notices your talents. Jupiter will begin its retrograde in your 3rd house. This is a very introspective placement. Your inner dialogue may be louder than your outward expression. You might consider picking back up communication projects you’ve been sitting on. The 3rd house also rules siblings, and your neighbors. You may feel less social and more homey for awhile.


PISCES - The Leo new moon lands in your 6th house of health, wellness, and habits. This placement also affects your work environment and routine. If your office needs to be redecorated, this would be a good time to do it, because your creativity will be high. Creative work projects are also favored, so set some intentions in that direction. Jupiter will begin its retrograde in your 2nd house. Even though it is retrograde, that laser-focused inward facing energy can help boost your income at this time (especially creative projects, in the short term).

A spoonful of sugar - BitchScopes for July 18-25

I think this will be an interesting week on a personal level. That Capricorn Full Moon last Wednesday was a bit harsh. Capricorn is no nonsense and no bullshit, and it didn’t pull any punches showing us where we need to improve in order to move ahead. This week, there’s a good amount of internal conflict, and bumping into values that we hold which are at odds with the goals we are trying to achieve. Some of us are going to feel a little “put upon” or burdened by our soul work or our life’s calling. The Sun and Mercury move into Leo, which stimulates our pride and playfulness, for better or worse. This week in the battle between work and play, work is likely to lose.

There’s a lot of nurturing and compassion and even activism that wants to happen, but those things are bumping up against a sort of crisis of self esteem. Chariklo, the wife of Chiron, is about self sovereignty and compassion, but she is in difficult aspects this week. We have a couple of tough Pluto aspects, and then we have Mars being eclipsed by the moon. This is called an “occultation”, and in this case, the willpower of Mars is temporarily “eclipsed” by our feelings, represented by the moon. Mars is Taurus is “debilitated”, but also incredibly stubborn and willful. That energy is blocked by the moon, also in Taurus. It is an internal crisis. Mars’ energy is softened by the moon, and we are forced to take a look at how we use our personal power and leadership - do we try to control others? Or do we use our powers for good, and do we have compassion, even for our opponents?

I’m tapping into Capricorn to deliver messages that you need to hear, whether you like them or not, because these are not “SugarScopes” (though a spoonful of sugar helps the medicine go down!) But I am softening the message with excerpts from the poetry of Hafiz, because he is romantic and joyful and hopeful and lovely!

ARIES - Ambition is a good thing, until its not. Let go of the need to constantly be the first and best and most amazing and beyond reproach perfectionist. Because guess what? You’re not actually any of those things in the bigger picture. You can be an amazing leader if you put your powers to good use. “Little by little, you will turn into stars. Even then, my dear, you will only be a crawling infant, still skinning your knees on God” (Hafiz)

TAURUS - Sometimes in the quest for unshakeable security, you can be a little rudderless, exploring every avenue that looks remotely promising. But then you dig in your heels and have difficulty admitting you’ve gone down a crummy path. Don’t be afraid to put things in reverse and recalculate your course. “Now, begin to rain intelligence and compassion upon all your tender, wounded cells and realize the profound absurdity of thinking you can ever go anywhere or do anything without God’s will”. (Hafiz)

GEMINI - Knowledge is power, but focus gives your power depth and reach. On the quest to satisfy your ever mental and intellectual itch, you can run the risk of becoming a know it all, and a master of nothing. The trick is to master your own mind, and its no easy task for a Gemini. Sometimes you have to force your mind to be quiet by listening to something louder - like nature, or your lover, or your heart! “Pulling out the chair beneath your mind, and watching you fall upon God” (Hafiz)

CANCER - Selfishness is one of the most challenging things most Cancers must learn. You have to hold back some of all the goodness you sprinkle out into the world and give it to yourself! You probably were not taught to do this, so you have to learn. If you don’t, you can become a shriveled and depleted shell. “I wish I could show you, when you are lonely or in darkness, the astonishing light of your own being!” (Hafiz)

LEO - Creative people can get easily bored, and when there is not something to tackle in their own lives, they can focus too much on what’s going on in other people’s lives. Make sure you have a strong creative outlet … maybe more than one! It doesn’t have to be complicated, it just has to scratch your itch to create and emote and express and to play! “God is trying to sell you something but you don’t want to buy. That is what your suffering is: your fantastic haggling, your manic screaming over the price!” (Hafiz)

VIRGO - Virgos can struggle so much with perfectionism, and yet many of them don’t recognize that in themselves. It is so much a part of the fabric of who you are, you can’t really see it. So trust people when they tell you it is enough, it is good, you are enough, you are worthy… those are the truth. “...a hundred sweet promises and those heroic vows no one can ever keep. But still God is delighted and amused you once tried to be a saint” (Hafiz)

LIBRA - The work of trying to make everyone happy is not only exhausting, it is Sisyphean…you’re never gonna get that rock up the hill and make it stay there. It is noble and beautiful to try to please people that love you, but you also have to love yourself. So every day, be still and listen to your own heart and what it wants …I can guarantee it does not want to feel burdened and broken by the feeling of falling short of the perceived expectations of people who don’t appreciate you! “If a naive and desperate man brings a precious stone to the only jeweler in town wanting to sell it, the jeweler’s eyes will begin to play a game…he will not want to reveal the stone’s true value, but to hold the man captive to fear and greed while he calculates the value of the transaction.” (Hafiz)

SCORPIO - Some of the heaviest shit you will ever carry is the grudges you hold. What people don’t realize about you is how soft your underbelly is and that is why you are so self-protective. Remembering how you’ve been hurt is natural and a means of preventing future pain; but every so often you might review the list and start letting go of the ones that you can. “But the moon cannot hold a grudge. It still stops by some nights and leans over this gentle earth, as over a crib, and gives a full, wet kiss. For the moon knows that God is always amorous.” (Hafiz)

SAGITTARIUS - You are a truth teller, and you can sometimes exaggerate the importance of a particular point of view. The unfortunate truth is that most of this life is lived in the gray area, not the black and white you prefer. Challenge yourself to explore the gray area. “Forget every idea of right and wrong any classroom ever taught you. Because an empty heart, a tormented mind, unkindness, jealousy and fear are always the testimony you have been completely fooled!” (Hafiz)

CAPRICORN - Next to the words “No nonsense” in the dictionary is a picture of a Capricorn. Actions must have meaning, and wasted time and energy are terrible things. Embracing “art for art’s sake” could be good medicine for you. Challenge yourself to do something that has no purpose whatsoever! “Zero is where the real fun starts. There’s too much counting everywhere else!” (Hafiz)

AQUARIUS - An Aquarius that is “too emotional” is like an “honest politician” - very unlikely, very rare, and maybe non existent. Aquarians do struggle with various aspects of the languages of the heart. Sometimes you can blow off other people’s feelings too. Listen when people are expressing themselves to you, and spend time connecting with your heart rather than your head, at least once a day (I do this during my morning shower). “How does it feel to be a heart? For all I know is Love and I find my heart Infinite and everywhere!” (Hafiz)

PISCES - You are a deep and profound soul, and y’all are often hard to figure out. In my experience and observations, Pisces often have a hard time figuring themselves out too. They are shapeshifters, and as such they sometimes struggle to find their own identity. I never met a Pisces who didn’t NEED a large amount of laughter in order to keep themselves in their body. Laughter is magical medicine. Take your vitamins every day “What is laughter? What is laughter? It is God waking up!...It happiness applauding itself and then taking flight to embrace everyone and everything in this world…it is the glorious sound of a soul waking up!” (Hafiz)
