Sorry to say I am having equipment problems and the astrology report will be delayed until I can get what I need.

COSMIC WAVES FORECAST OCTOBER 12TH TO 18TH 2018

SIDEREAL WESTERN ASTROLOGY

The shift for this week is Jupiter moves into Libra. It is not a fast-moving planet, so get ready to re establish how we judge one another and find that point of compromise. There is a strong emotional undertone that will follow Jupiter as a Grand Trine in Water forms with healing agencies, the future and our opportunities. This will run well past the election.

Aspects with Mars this week will make it very high intensity concerning the material world. Money, property, jobs all will be exposed to some unfortunate truths. Guard your money, don’t buy unnecessary things and you can control losses.

Friday, October 12^th, expect the news to run contrary to what is actually happening. Unexpected revelations may set things into doubtful territory. Some of this is just to de-humanize us and break our will to fight. But if you do that now, fixing things later will be much harder. Time to trust the process and stay aware. Could be a very stressful day but then it might be hard to distinguish from any other stressful day. Moon in Scorpio.

Saturday, October 13^th, this is a day of repressive actions and merciless pressure for control. Instead of freaking out, consider this a time to see clearly what needs to change and how to do it. Faulty premises are emerging in expected places. Moon in Scorpio.

Sunday, October 14^th, expect certain players to be called out on their misguided domination. The next couple of days are particularly straining as the Moon traverses Saturn and Pluto in Sagittarius. Sagittarius demands higher standards or all hell could break loose. Don’t anger the Centaur! This is not a time to be holding on to antiquated philosophies as they will receive loud and vigorous complaints. Better to be open to fixing problems rather than creating more divisiveness. Moon in Sagittarius.

Monday, October 15^th, the weekend fallout is still hard to grasp. There is an unacceptable reason for this, as struggles to hold onto poor decisions is forced into the open. The things you see up front and personal are under scrutiny. The whole system is going to creak like a sinking ship. Be sure you have a life jacket and supplies. Moon in Sagittarius.

Tuesday, October 16^th, the struggle seems darker and meaner than a few days ago. It would not surprise me if things that have to do with money markets ushers in some scary times over the next few days. Compassionate change is rewarded, where greed is not. Moon in Capricorn.

Wednesday, October 17^th, there is a double whammy on Mars in Capricorn today as the Moon brings out deep seated problems. The numbers are not adding up, and hopefully only red ink will flow. Strange and unexpected events will flow so keep a close eye on your position and where things are going. Moon in Capricorn.

Thursday, October 18^th, new aspects emerge to the week’s drama/trauma. Higher forces are at work, so there is really a silver lining. But it will be a while before it is revealed. We have been living with a hidden agenda for a while, but this Grand Trine in Water could well help ease a lot of the pain. Moon in Capricorn.

COSMIC WAVES FORECAST OCTOBER 5TH TO 11TH 2018

SIDEREAL WESTERN ASTROLOGY

I suspect that issues around love, sex, romance and relationships will be foremost in our thoughts. She goes retrograde in Libra this week and will be square to Mars in cold and hard Capricorn. Facing issues with the battle of the sexes and the cost to our needs and desires will be both collectively and individually in focus. While the individual struggles will be harsh, the bigger picture will find fertile ground to change. We are definitely re thinking what gender relationships mean to the over all context of society. There will be challenges for about 6 weeks until November 16^th when Venus starts to go direct again. More of this will feel like festering sores, so get help if you need it. Healing is possible so ask for your share.

Mercury goes into Libra this week also asking us to do what is just and fair. Conversations should revolve around this. Expect the throwbacks to what are now failed laws, words or excuses to be aired. Don’t fall of it. There is a time when tradition is important until it clearly causes harm. Let’s not sweep up the issues of fairness and justice under the carpet.

By weeks’ end, Jupiter will go out of Libra and into Scorpio. Look for a great healing to show up in big ways. We all need it, and just staying actively in touch with the daily news turns out to be an act of penance and revolution. As I have mentioned before, any planet at 29 degrees brings out all the nasties to review. Once it shifts into the next sign, which turns out to relate to rising above the fray and soar, or change or die. It is always our choice to meet our challenges with courage and our full attention. This week will show us yet another issue that we need to rise above or it will cripple us.

A T Square will develop this week until the 14^th that will push bigger and bigger pressures on what we hear about interpersonal relationships and what we want in life. Mercury in Libra, the North Node in Cancer and Uranus in Aries travel together in uneasy company while we hear all out in the open about justice and then it works into relationships. Those who are more stable help out those who need an understanding ear.

Friday, October 5^th, greets the day with a Grand Trine in Fire. Work on things that create stability both emotionally and ethically. Winning battle lines will be fought along these areas of life. You know you are on the right track when it feels healing rather than authoritarian. This is the last day that Mars and the Draconian points will be agitated. Even if this note is not played loud enough, it will be heard or felt. Moon in Leo.

Saturday, October 6^th, tensions grow when some try to hold onto something they have invested too much energy. Of course, no one wants to be wrong. Perhaps a different perspective would be wiser. Such as, we played that concept until all the variations have been explored. Now it is time to look at the cause and effect and make course corrections. That takes the pressure off of “wrong” and “right” and allows for growth. Moon in Leo.

Sunday, October 7^th, looks like a day to trust the process. Unless you are making up the rules as you go, as that won’t fly today. Good things happen to those who keep receipts, document their experiences and make decisions based on good data. The process you use is important to your success. Don’t play fast and loose with it. Moon in Leo and in Virgo by mid-day.  

Monday, October 8^th, a good day to work with your accountant of financial affairs. Practical affairs bare the greatest benefits. Fix things around the house or do the extra effort to create that physical form of whatever you want to do. Moon in Virgo.   

Tuesday, October 9^th, while the future seems rather mercy, take this time to simply enjoy with gratitude what you know is yours. Keeping your words and thoughts in balance may be a bigger challenge considering what the greater world is demonstrating. A good day to take a break and just get the clift notes on the day’s occurrences. It may just be too intense. Moon in Virgo.

Wednesday, October 10^th, watch out for random comments that may injure. Keep your thoughts to yourself and try to observe rather than actually get in a fight. The Libra moon should help your keep your place in the whole in better perspective. Just don’t wound because you can. That just slows the healing process. Moon in Libra.

Thursday, October 11^th, with the Moon conjunct Jupiter in newly placed Scorpio, know that some real healing is here in a big way. Some it is going to be harsh on those who are stubborn or just to mean to believe. The future should seem brighter today! Moon in Libra until late afternoon.

COSMIC WAVES FORECAST SEPTEMBER 28TH TO OCTOBER 4TH 2018

SIDEREAL WESTERN ASTROLOGY

As for general shifts this week, Pluto will go Station on October 1^st. While this is a slow moving and distant planet, don’t expect immediate changes in ideology or philosophy of those needing a wake-up call. But know it is in the works through October.

Also, romance will get a boost this next 10 days or so. You may have to dig a bit deeper to see that is happening, but it is there and you can tap into some really higher understanding and comradery. Consider this a time to open up to a soul connection with your mate, such as Zen moments watching the sun set.  In about 2 weeks these understandings will be blossom into  clear and endearing connections. Should be a good way to start your fall.

Friday, September 28^th has the Moon in Aries playing hard wall with Jupiter in Libra. Legal issues and setting the record straight are potentially explosive late morning. News cycle should be interesting. What happens says a lot about who we are. This is on a big scale so expect it to both upfront and personal. Moon in Aries.

Saturday, September 29^th, as the day develops some down to earth actions will bring important news that hits the heart like a cosmic two by four. There is a Grand Trine in earth this day so it will be fleeting and beneficial. Not everyone will be excited. We are in a trend to learn some big lessons about how things have changed and how they will be moving forward. Moon in Taurus.

Sunday, September 30^th, this is a good day to phone home and connect with those you know. Also, a good day to eat well and get some things done around the house. And by the way, take a nap in the afternoon. Anything that feels good and builds up your emotional and spiritual strength should be on the agenda today! Moon in Taurus.

Monday, October 1^st, another layer in the Retrograde Year is starting to release. Pluto in Sagittarius goes Station today and a new day will dawn. Although the general feel of the day is going to be positive, you should start preparing for what is next. Some are going to feel very scattered, but if you focus more on starting a new catalogue of information, you will start to see a pattern develop. It if it healing it is where you need to go. Moon in Gemini.

Tuesday, October 2^nd, get up early and start your day knowing that big things are here. There will be lucky changes or redirections. Now you may not perceive them as lucky, but they defiantly get you where you should be going next. Projects may end up in your lap or flirting may bring someone to start a conversation. Be prudent, as so much for all directions will be flying about, that your free will must be acknowledged. Moon in Gemini.

Wednesday, October 3^rd, foster what makes you feel at peace or in good mental health.  There are a couple of Grand Trines bringing a lot of stray pieces together. You will know it is right if you find the synchronicities among the odd events. Moon in Cancer.

Thursday, October 4^th, another day to roll in delight over the set of circumstances that have arisen. Perhaps a celebration is in order, but do wait until after work. Partying at work or making light of some situations in the work place could backfire. Smile instead and keep them guessing where the mirth flows. Some people are going to be moody and will take offense at someone enjoying themselves or worse think you are up to something. Moon in Cancer.

RETROGRADE YEARS

WHAT AILS US AS SEEN BY MAJOR RETROGRADE YEARS

Method: I use classic Western astrology wheels and associations to the planets and orbs, with the exception of my calculations are in Sidereal Time. I am defining Retrograde Years as years where seven planets and/or orbs are in retrograde most of the year. Most noted is Chiron is involved in all of my presented Retrograde years. I did not specifically figure in Mercury Retrogrades as they are a common occurrence through out the year. As I tried to use software to find similar alignments, to no avail. My next method was to go to similar events that are being repeated. Today just about every negative social problem has been square in our face. My first choices were not fruitful until I stumbled on something provenly so pervasive, it was my later search.

Invitation: to openly discuss “what ails us” and compare the differences and or similarities of the two traditions of Tropical vs Sidereal. Clearly the signs will probably be different bringing some differences in focus. Also, after stumbling on a connection point to these Retrograde year events, I have cross-referenced those years with specific events. I have also only considered what is in our recent history (1866, 1877, 1915) to compare with events happening this year (2018). To follow up with other intense events in our civilization, I have found they had at least 4 major planets in Retrograde at any specific event.

Observance: in astrology you can see pressure points, much like acupuncture on the energetic body of mankind. Planets and zodiac signs give further guidance as to the meaning of each set of Retrograde years. While there is only guidance rather than fated outcomes from these trigger points, we still want to understand.

It is human nature to avoid pain, but at what level of avoidance does it continue “samsara” or pain itself? These Retrogrades are more of return to a serious flaw in rising consciousness. They by nature have pulled our awareness back to the center of our heart, and ask the simple question, do I “do unto others as they do unto me”? The “pain” is when that answer is who is asking the question. If others are feeling pain and fear, can the rest of us continue to be above it? Or do we have to bring them along our rise so that we can enjoy those merits and then face yet another aspect of human development? In simpler terms I am getting at trauma and its healing. Coming from a personal belief that we are all connected and what we do to another, we end up doing to our self. Or rather if you marginalize another, there is a reaction that can end up hurting me also, such as trauma, disenfranchisement, reactions of rebellion and then destabilization to the whole through crime, addictions and violence.

During this year, I think of myself as someone who has done a lot of personal work via associations, discussions, lectures and most importantly my own time spent contemplating my aging navel and what has been me and who I am now. So, in short connection and facing the ugly and yet deep shadow of my soul. Many others are doing the same thing, but there is a stubborn cluster of souls who for what ever reason still follow another’s lead and don’t rise above the karmic cross of influence by others. What I have observed is each time these Retrogrades visit us, more and more rise above our deepest fears and restrictions. It is a known psychological lesson that we will endure great pain because we know the situation, instead of facing the unknown and what it may provide. We don’t exchange one fear for another. That act of looking at the unknown is more painful than the known.

One of my teachers, was gracious enough to explain that as things return on the cosmic circle of time we learn more and more. At some point we master the lesson and it no longer drags us into the failings of the past. That is the upside to this year of Retrogrades. Each era has its own deep flaws to negotiate, so the value of this year’s series presents as something different than maybe early civilized man may have endured. Circumstances and specific situations are just different from today. Our choices determine what we gain by seeing the returning situation.

Now to get to the observation. I need to present this delicately so forgive the disclaimer babble. I am also going to focus on the United States as similar events were happening worldwide. As I started to look at events, I gravitated to the time of the Civil War as we are feeling that divide right now. The actual Civil War didn’t have much in the way of major retrogrades and I look as those times as positive or progressive despite the loss of life and expectations. This was a time of rising above an age-old concept that one life may be more valuable than another, i.e. slavery as a means of building personal wealth. The negativity happened afterwards as if some dark minion tried to raise from the ashes to reinstall its venom. As after all, it had resided in a large part of our collective consciousness. The three years I am going to look at is the founding of the KKK (1866), the Start of Jim Crow (1877) and the start of WWI and what was happening here in 1915. Some alternative events that pressed for facing trauma and opening up a chance for healing.

So here is what seems to be the symptom, racism, nationalism, security via economic supremacy and fear of the other. All due to difficulties in tapping into collective consciousness and increased self-separation or isolation. It is seen as a White Supremacy through many forms. Some of those forms are altruistically paternal, but human kind does not do well if it is kept in perpetual childhood. Since today’s science says, there is no real difference between any of us, and race is a social construct, we have to look deeper at why this has occurred. Each time we addressed a facet of this tribalism or fascism, it went from full bloom to now a de je vous of cries from a not so distant past.

As for economic security, each period has shown that there are a few people who are so tied to money as security, that they subvert everyone else for their own needs. It takes generations to move past these cultural and cultish fervors. Because that is what they are a fervor that does not allow thinking outside of the paradigm. Looking at these things in the present, we see that there is indeed something else outside of that perspective, so choice is possible and, in this case, preferable. Compassion is a key here. This is not soft and emotional, it is straightforward, with real levers to rising even the weakest into healthy realities. But some of the old ideas of what that looks like must be tempered with real social science of how we all work together.

I know that an alternative view is that these things have been with us since humans started living together, and yes that is true. And the development and implementation of what came out of these Retrograde years extends for years. Consider the concept of “harmony through conflict”. We don’t deal with anything until it causes conflict. Trauma scars us internally, genetically and socially. When something is broken, you need to mend it. For what it is worth, humans seem to find the oddest ways to operate while that healing process has time to occur. The next stage of development is “concrete knowledge or science”. This is a time to start bettering ourselves through intellect rather than power manipulations that have fallen into fragments, i.e. we need healing through intellect. After we master that and find the flaws of our nature, yet another lesson of development will present. Some of us are slow learners, so ages will pass as we test every conceivable variation.

Questions: So what impact will this year of Retrogrades mean for us? Where do we want to take it, how do we want to heal this aberration of reason and personality that we have created in life? What would life look like if we cured this throwback in collective consciousness? I propose the we would start to work with everyone doing what they are best designed to do, and no factions would be held back due to convenience, insecurity, paternal authority or fear?

Charts and Associations with Events

The creation of the KKK (1866) and the Jim Crow Laws (1877) all came out of Reconstruction period after the Civil War. I wonder how differently things might have turned out if Lincoln had finished out his term instead of Andrew Johnson commandeering the radical reconstruction of the south and final incorporation of the blacks into citizenship. It is noteworthy that Johnson was impeached due to his ineptitude. Clearly, sensitivity and a sense of human justice was Lincoln’s manifesto, but not Johnson’s perspective.

Each of these periods had counterbalances of social concepts of equality and unity. While the reaction to losses due to the Civil War, the 13^th, 14^th and 15^th Amendments which freed and constructed a reality for enslaved blacks, the negative reaction was to double down with the past repressive behaviors and subtle enslavements of the very people who were federally liberated. Chiron is involved in these two years. with Chiron retrograde in Aquarius in 1866 a true clash of ideals comes to the forefront. Financial restrictions created the tensions in the south as reparations had to be made as well as not having an economic system that was functioning.

Our lesson of this time is that after trauma, you can’t create more hardship and expect people to accept the oppression. They will fall back on old ideas that reminded them of having more personal power. This recognition that blacks were indeed humans, but equal while creating financial hardship simply made little room for healing. Buy the time of the end of Reconstruction, the Jim Crow Laws filled in creating another way to enslave blacks to boost the failing economic situation in the South. This was social restriction as well as economic restriction.

To carry this forward, tariffs were unfair to the Southern farmer trade practices which brought much loss and instability to the south. Much of which started to wane by 1913, which leads to just before the first World War. The south was very much unable to get on its feet. Interestingly enough, the advent of the NAACP rose about 1915 which shows how quickly the Blacks were able to pull together and organize so that they could maintain their new standard of autonomy. At a peak at 1909 statues to the Southern Confederate generals and leaders were being punctuated throughout the south to remind both whites of their once prosperous times, and the subservience of the blacks. So, arises 1915 and the KKK creates a new insurgency but is very much “invisible”.  Like the ghost of past glories making yet one more rise into consciousness. I want to get back to the original premise of our challenge which is as humans there is not difference between us. We are all collectively tied together. The more you struggle against the notion, the greater the boomerang back to facing the reality. The healing has to occur with both economic equalities, but social collective consciousness also.

There are more parallels to that time, which include women’s rights and their struggle to be full citizens and recognized as something more than chatmates. But that is yet another set of dates. What we are seeing is a full review of how the ability to value everyone has been a winning battle as long as we don’t regress. Shifting those perspectives of those still lagging behind will be hard. We can do it.

COSMIC WAVES FORECAST SEPTEMBER 21ST TO 27TH 2018

SIDEREAL WESTERN ASTROLOGY

After a fun adventure with family through the mountains of the west, I will try to get back into the swing of keeping everyone advised as to the movements of the orbs. Looking at today’s changes, the Sun and Mercury have turned into the constellation Virgo. An excellent month to pull together details, do some yard chores and prep the home for changing weather. The Grand Square that has kept our focus on the task at hand, will be breaking up by Saturday and Sunday. That should relieve some pressure on most people to just take the rest of the week to deal with the immediate and maybe breathe a bit easier, for now.

There may be more a sense of the “slings and arrows of outrageous fortune” this week as Mars will be triggering the Draconian points. The unthinking person will fall back on old ways or habits which will burn them to the core. Health issues will be worse right now, so take extra care of your personal physical weaknesses. We all have them, and they will be acting up this week. if you find yourself caught between having a health episode and taking the easy way out, don’t! If you aren’t well, let it be known and let another fill in rather than make a mistake. We all need to move forward right now, so don’t fall to your passions or weaknesses.

I am still fine tuning the comments on Retrograde years. The more I search the deeper the correspondences I find. So, hope to have that finally pulled together over the weekend. I will need to write a short version and then the long version for those who want to delve into it more.

Friday, September 21^st, this is a day to take a look at your end of year finances and what needs to be done to your property. Resist taking short cuts or hedging your bets on things as this week, Mars will be in the crosshairs of the Draconian points. Shifty actions will cause serious problems later down the road. Watch out for power plays and nefarious actions. Call them out on their stuff! Moon in Capricorn.

Saturday, September 22^nd, pay attention to those subtle calls off love and devotion. Reward those who have stuck it through the hard times, and be ready to reciprocate. There is a sense of fatigue when it comes to what we need to thrive, so go easy on those that are struggling while the fighting the good fight. Moon in Aquarius.

Sunday, September 23^rd, connect up with those who are close to home. Big benefits come from simple gestures. It is times like this that you know who has your back should you need some help. While it is not a good idea to be too independent, knowing your strengths means you know when you can help others, especially loved ones. Moon in Aquarius.

Monday, September 24^th, fortune smiles on those who keep up with the work load. There is a test in the wings so to pass it, keep it all business, and stay in your lane. Even if it hurts. You can rest when you get home. Moon in Pisces.

Tuesday, September 25th, avoid indulgences as they will show up for all to see. No one want’s their weaknesses exposed, and this could be another day that they will cause you troubles. With Mars in Capricorn and tangled in the web of Draconian points, you could be facing financial difficulties or job loss if you can’t keep it together. You know what you need to do or pay a price. Moon in Pisces.

Wednesday, September 26^th, being honest today will keep you out of trouble. I say this because of a T Square involving security and the unexpected is not only the single focus of this time, but also is protected if you are doing civil and intelligent things. Don’t get caught off guard. I know it sounds repetitious, but this could be events moving really fast because of pent up energy that has things happening like the release of a loaded spring. Some people will be walking out the door for the last time. Moon in Pisces until early evening when it goes into Aries.

Thursday, September 27^th, this morning may be a surprise that you are not working with a full crew. We all can get playful when we become comfortable in a situation, but if it leads to carelessness at work, you might not like the results. Expect the shocking, and play friendly. Moon in Aries.
