Cosmic Waves Forecast February 27th thru March 5th 2015

COSMIC WAVES FORECAST FEBRUARY 27TH THROUGH MARCH 5TH 2015

Great expansions can occur when the right amount of luck, happy coincidence and hard work create new situations. Towards the end of this week you may find yourself dealing with someone else’s failure to grow and evolve. Be ready to coach someone in a changing perspective. You are part of that journey and can learn from other’s difficulties. Even if you simply know that you have mastered that illusion and have found firmer ground to stand.

Friday, February 27th has a lot going for us as things seem to be moving along quite well. The glitch is the Moon is in Gemini and its propensity to over think, causes difficulty in understanding clearly what is actually being done or even desired. The way to get a better handle on what we should be considering is how the group feels and works for the whole. Yes that heavy influence of Neptune in Aquarius has been a long standing theme for right now. As we move away from a society that does unto others before they do unto us, there is another turn in the cogs for social connection and responsibility. I feel this even more as a basic level under the theories of entanglement. Focus on what is sustainable and your hard work will be rewarded.

Saturday, February 28th things will be locked into place today. There is no reason to struggle through it, but rather take some time off for things that give you joy. If you have a detail to finish from the week of work, get it done early. Then truly enjoy this day with the love and fun that it holds. No fair hiding in your study. Instead, if you must stay home, check out the garage or garden or where ever you feel the pull of creativity.

Sunday, March 1st the early part of the day really is rather uneventful. A lot of the stresses have been put on hold for the day. By late afternoon, a Grand Trine in water with the Moon in Sidereal Cancer brings a lovely feeling of family, love and abundance. You have been working up to this moment all weekend, so be sure to enjoy this break in the tougher cosmic situations. Be sure to take some time out with your sweetheart or loved ones. A big meal and a movie would be a wonderful bonding exercise today. It won’t be hard to keep it fun and light tonight. Also I have a favorite observation on March 1st which is what the weather does. Does your day have weather that comes in like a lion or a lamb? The end of the month will be just the opposite.

Monday, March 2nd could be a banner day at work! Lots of luck with changes and chances to work up the office hierarchy. Do be aware that some egotists will lose some footing today. Be gracious with their decline because, unless you have done their job, you have no idea what it is like in that spot. Lots of emphasis on what needs to change and how it will look next. Stay on your toes! Just a note, the moon will be accentuating the powerful luck of Jupiter right now. Your senses will help you navigate the currents today and lead you to not only some adventure but desires.

Tuesday, March 3rd some of the excitement of yesterday is still playing out. But if it is out of your sphere of influence, the best thing to do is work on your mental health routine. We know that exercise is great to maintain a well balanced body, but what are your emotional or mental routines that create stability? Whether it be joining something interactive like a cards club or night out at the coffee shop to solve the problems of the world, get into something that will make you feel like you are accepted.

Wednesday, March 4th with the afflicted moon moving into sidereal Leo today, be aware of those who are showy or bullish. None of us looks for trouble, but should you be in the path of someone who is not so well integrated or angry, there would be some friction. Remember this is coming from insecurity or instability. There are a lot of people out there who are unable to deal with changes and this is a day that they may have had enough and get noisy. Always consider your own limits and how you have benefited by flexibility and understanding. Don’t carry someone’s projections into your life.

Thursday, March 5th another day of possible harassment. This time the primary point is about needing to move with the times. So many, who hide in fear and resentment, have a hard time facing a world that moves along with or without them. This is obviously their internal struggle and it could be made into your trigger point. If you must engage, ask for explanation of reasons rather than generalizations. That may give you just enough time to escape while they try to think of why they are upset. Know that some of the other less charged encounters are lucky opportunities to understand something new or get to meet someone special. Although this meeting of someone special may not be romantic, but more of a kindred spirit. Even the best meaning people sometimes put a foot in their mouth.

Blessings and Peace,

Alchemical Meditations to Bring Love Into Your Life

The basis of this meditation comes from using simple yoga positions that stimulate particular chakras. The body can be used as a technology to create and express your special vibrations. This is designed to create as perfect a condition within you so that you attract someone without past difficulties. Also there must be a trust that the person will be there, but not necessarily have personal conditions that you have previously demanded. Such as don’t expect Jennifer Lopez to be on your door step because that is who you idealize. This works on vibrational correspondences.

The chakras used will be the 1st (crown and divine influence), 3rd (desire nature) and 4th (heart). These are really easy to do with a minimal amount of flexibility needed. If you are unable to do these positions, then this will not work well. For future reference, this should be done after the new moon but before the full moon as to allow your desires to grow. Also a day represented by Venus, like Friday is good if you can’t consult an astrologer for a auspicious day like what February 21st, 2015 will be. Also a moon in sidereal Taurus, Libra Pisces or Scorpio will be good days to choose.

Yoga positions for the 1st chakra is a lotus position or easy pose. You inhale deeply filling abdomen then roll your shoulders forward as the air flows out of your abdomen and you draw in your stomach.
Yoga position for the 3rd chakra is  to  sit on your knees, place hands on knees or upper thigh, inhale and fill abdomen. Then roll shoulders forward as you empty the abdomen and drawn in your stomach (recommended). The Cobra position is also useful for the 3rd chakra but more advanced.
Yoga position for the 4th chakra doing the simple Camel position is recommended. This is sitting on your knees, reaching backwards and touching your heals with your hands. This expands the chest and opens the heart chakra. Inhale nasally as you reach back and feel your heart opening.

Supplies:
·         Incense for cleansing can be a lighted sage bundle or dragon’s blood resin on a lighted charcoal (recommended).
·         Incense for the meditation should be one of these: benzoin, jasmine, gardenia or myrrh. The charcoal will work well for the dragon’s blood and the myrrh (recommended)
·         Fire proof dish with thick layer of sand in it for the charcoal.
·         Clean rug or lamb skin rug to sit on
·         Comfortable clothes that allow for yoga positions
·         Be freshly bathed and prepared as if you are meeting someone for a good first impression
·         Visuals of one of these: chili peppers, peony, rose or lily.
·         Wear one of these colors, red, green, white, rose, orange, violet (for gay individuals) or if you are calling an equally spiritual person into your life.
·         Jewelry can be of garnets, rhondonite, ruby, pearl or emerald.

Preparation:
·         Read descriptions of the yoga positions
·         Be comfortably fed but no libations
·         Before beginning, cleanse house or area with incense: a lighted sage bundle or dragon’s blood resin on a charcoal (recommended because it is sweet smelling)
·         Keep the incense close at hand because you will be adding it as you go along.
·         sound a bell, chime, gong or singing bowl
·         sit on a lamb skin rug if you have one
·         allow the light of a window to shine warmth on your face and body.
·         Crack a window if the room is closed up so that the incense is not overwhelming.


Here is the audio file for going through the meditation: Alchemical Meditation for Love
Beginning of meditation:


·         After the room is cleared sit down on your rug with flowers in view. Place some myrrh on the charcoal. Then activate your sound vibrations of bell, etc. Create a sense of being centered in sacred space.
·         Clear all ambitions, distractions or ill feelings from your heart.
·         Put more myrrh on charcoal
·         Sit in the easy pose or lotus position. This is yoga position #1.  Sit up straight with your shoulders back. Inhale nasally and fill your abdomen completely. Hold.
·         Then roll your shoulders forward and exhale nasally completely until your stomach is drawn inward. With each cycle of breaths, breathe in calm, peace and joy and exhale any misgivings, lingering hurt feelings or self doubt. Continue this until you feel complete peace.
·         Visualize a globe of light above your head. Now bring in the divine gifts of above into your crown chakra or the lotus just above your head. Connect completely with all collective consciousness. Feel the power.

·         Yoga position #4 which is the simple Camel. Visualize the lighted globe over your heart. Sit on your knees and slightly lean back allowing your hands to touch your heels. Return to sitting upright. Inhale nasally as you lean back and feel the heart chakra open in your chest. Hold this position for a few moments and allow your feelings of joy to project out. Exhale nasally and return to sitting comfortably on your knees. This step is creating a beacon for the right one to find you.

·         Yoga position #3 move so that you are sitting on your knees. Visualize the globe of light over your solar plexus or belly area. Place hands on knees or upper thighs. With your shoulders back, and sitting straight, inhale nasally until your abdomen is filled. Then roll shoulders forward and exhale nasally until the abdomen is emptied and drawn in. sit up straight and inhale nasally and  completely hold your breath and feel the desire nature in your belly to create a warm feeling of completeness and contentment. Release by rolling shoulders forward and exhale all air out of abdomen. Rest. Again inhale nasally, sitting straight and this time hold your breath and visualize the qualities you want, but not necessarily an image. This is feeling only. Exhale nasally.

·         Take a moment and put more myrrh on the charcoal.

·         Now, last is to return to Yoga position #4 which is the Camel. Comfortably sit on your knees, hands on your thighs and sitting up straight. Visualize yourself sitting in nature, with the greatest harmony around you. The cycle of life is everywhere with flora and fauna. You are part of that system.
·         Inhale nasally and slightly lean back allowing your hands to touch your heels. Visualize the glove of light at your heart area. Feel the heart chakra open in your chest. Hold this position for a few moments and allow your feelings of attraction to expand out like a cone of light. Also feel the freedom to love fully again. Hold this as long as you can. Exhale nasally and return to sitting comfortably on your knees.

·         Now return to easy pose. Say yes!

·         Sound the bell or whatever sound vibration you chose.

·         Return to the present.

·         Open up more air flow into your space to let the incense dissipate out.

·         Return to your daily routine and stay engaged and aware of future synchronicities.

COSMIC WAVES FORECAST FEBRUARY 20TH THROUGH 26TH 2015
Over the next three weeks, a slow and steady chance to redefine and explore love and desires will have some steady ground in which to work. You will be given a chance to sort through what past karma has presented and where you can grow. This growth should be in more like a spiritual awakening. Even though a sense of losing funds or things looms in the minds of those who have just loved and lost, the key will be to understand that you probably are still able to do what is necessary. We all are benefited from scaling down our lives so that simplicity will allow for future developments to grow.

Here is the last pod cast for this forecast:Cosmic Waves Forecast Feb 20th thru 26th 2015

Friday, February 20th brings your intuition into focus. The Moon moves into sidereal Pisces and linking up with Venus, Mars and Uranus with a trine to Saturn. You can feel what the future will look like, but have to double check your reality meter for how the pieces will actually fall into place. There could be more compromise than satisfaction. Wait for another time to do your visioning of future goals when there is more information available. On the wider world, the continuing ideological battle is still being waged. In this time while the Sun is approaching a negatively aspected Neptune and Saturn, some hard lessons of recognizing personal agendas that rely on hiding the whole truth.

Saturday, February 21st this is a time that the wild and perhaps wicked aspects of love will be front and foremost. Most of the necessary pieces for a chance encounter or directed visioning of that special person in your life will be available. This is a brief window bringing luck into your court, so take advantage of it with meditation or active energy work to let your light shine. I will post a meditation on the 20th so it can be used today.

Sunday, February 22nd another great day to balance out what is a workable new plan. Many of the glitches of the past will start to work themselves out. You will still have to put in a lot of personal work, but it should be rewarded. With the use of the North Node in sidereal Virgo, being mostly well aspected, those sudden changes and windfalls will give you some cause to celebrate results of your hard work. Just monitor the libations since a steady sober hand is what will take you to the next step. There is a configuration that will maintain this wave of change until March 3rd.  So know that you have a little time to develop your enterprise. Also the Moon will be entering sidereal Aries bringing all the energy you need to get the ball rolling.

Monday, February 23rd using the momentum of yesterday, work closely to the facts and future indicators. The variations will be minimal, but the outcomes significantly different depending on your choices. Pressures of forcing an issue could cause some dicey results. The best strategy is to consider what your personal integrity will be when it is all said and done.

Tuesday, February 24th you will start to see some clearer lines of situations. Some of the fog has lifted to start sorting out the details. Communications will cause complications rather than solutions. Instead steer conversations towards what is sustainable in the future. Forward movement is well received by the energies right now. Later in this day, the Moon will move into sidereal Taurus bringing both a calming effect, but depending on how you relate to earthy influences, it could cause a case of immobile attitudes.

Wednesday, February 25th for those who are waiting for good news about a job or acquisition, this is the day to hear about it. There is a Grand Trine in earth today that will move some desires into your personal space. Also this is a great day regarding connecting up with romance and new business partners. If you aren't in the mood for love, then you could find a great friend to while away the spring and summer.  Actually, today just about anything can happen, even if you have to compromise in the process. Assurances that there is a safety clause, should someone be hiding some important information, will create the best environments.

Thursday, February 26th another great day to preserver in your special projects. Just know that nothing permanent should be agreed, because there are lots of hidden agendas which stay out of view. While you probably can surmise what that agenda maybe, you still will not know the whole story. Still things will be clearer today as to how go move forward. This is another day of unusual luck bringing opportunities to add significantly to your life. Tomorrow will provide a better vantage point to what is not seen today.

Blessings and Peace,

Cosmic Waves Forecast February 13th through 19th 2015

COSMIC WAVES FORECAST FEBRUARY 13TH THROUGH 19TH 2015

This week brings a number of celestial changes. The most palpable change is Mercury is now starting to act more like a messenger than a conundrum. All of this week it will be well aspected with Saturn bringing some clarity of the last retrograde period and some fresh focus to our lives.

The overall drift of our thoughts will reflect compassion and empathy for our fellow man and our place in the workings of this machine we call life. The Sun moves into Aquarius bringing that humanitarian aspect to our considerations. There is a deeper perception of the BS that is offered us among the tidbits of truth. Sharpen your senses both psychically and logically. Venus and Mars will be moving into Pisces this week bringing in that intuitive connection to what is truly happening. Please use this month for some game changing revelations and experiences.  By Monday all of these changes will be in motion.


Friday, February 13th what a day. Do you want to view your life from fear or from what is your reality? That is one of the bigger life reviews on this “traditionally” jinxed day. Of course, there is a certain amount of luck out there and if others don’t want it because they want to freeze in fear, then why not collect what you need to make the best of this day? Astrologically, there is a Grand Trine in Water bringing some important clues to what to do and how to navigate the uncertainties. Expect some unusual luck coming your way if you can shift away from illogical situations and into those that bring inner peace and prosperity. Good luck today, there is plenty out there for those who want to grasp it. The Moon will be in Scorpio today, so the secrets, mystery and renewal could be significant.

Saturday, February 14th on the heels of what could be a game changing day, comes a social holiday honoring love and connection to fellow human beings. Most of the conveyance of this holiday relate to Eros, which is quite juicy when it connects in a positive way. The Moon moves into sidereal Sagittarius bringing a tinge of anarchy as far as the accuracy of Cupid’s arrows. While outwards appearances seem to look fine, there is an internal struggle for making a change that can sustain you through your changing times. Expectations could be fine tuned. If you have been with someone for a long time, make sure that you are both evolving in the same direction. If not, don’t go chasing shiny objects in response to having to make internal truces. With the nullifying aspects of tomorrow, do be safe rather than sorry tonight.

Sunday, February 15th this could be a make or break day. The Moon conjuncts Pluto which is in a T Square. To us mere mortals, that means that any mistakes of yesterday’s Cupids mischief will come into full review. For some this will be a wakeup call that past methods of discernment must be modified or that drinking and dating for the sake of not being alone is a mistake. Take this as a lesson learned and for 
heaven’s sake be safe.

Monday, February 16th brings a reconciliation vibe to your life. In the mundane world, there could be some interesting bits of luck come at you from the least expected places. Stay alert and aware for the chance of illusion is still present. Remember things that went well, and what worked. Venus just starts to move into Pisces toda, which is in exaltation for the next 30 days. The Moon is actually in sidereal Capricorn right now and making a positive aspect to both Venus and Mars in Pisces. The timing for visioning the right intimate partner should be greeted with a huge chance of success. Remember that nothing is perfect, and a real list of what you can and will put up with should be somewhere in your list of expectations. The alchemy of this relates to the natural combination of fertile earth and water to bring forth plants and other life forms. Wait until the 20th before you finalize your desires. You can do this with prayers, meditation or whatever method fits your mystical perspective. I will post a meditation on the 20th on Alchemical Meditations for those who want something guided. Remember to stay in what is true for you, as anything that makes you uncomfortable, will be translated into your visioning results.

Tuesday, February 17th early morning could bring some interesting communications about money and property. If you dabble in the stock market, perhaps the foreign markets will have some positive news. For the rest of us, it is important to simply get focused on the important things in life that bring us stability and security. With the social incorporation of Mardi Gras, perhaps there will be more of a need to over indulge or splurge. For me, there will be recognition of cycles and benefits of enjoying life and all its ups and downs. For tomorrow will be Ash Wednesday a time to give up something significant in your life for a “season” with an outcome of disabling a flaw. Balance of opposites are all part of the journey.

Wednesday, February 18th the Moon will move into sidereal Aquarius bringing it along the path of the Sun. This could bring a renewed sense of what is right with the world and how we can fit together. But with no harmonious aspects to this crossing; there will be a sense of dissonance reflecting extreme idealism. Expect fits of power struggle and clashing of ideals today. I doubt that there will be much agreement other than to agree to disagree. If you can stay out of this power struggle, and focus on what is foundational, you will be ahead of the game.

Thursday, February 19th the Moon will connect with what heals us and moves us forward away from outdated, unsuccessful and detrimental policies and expectations. This involves a larger view of our lives. Yesterday’s clashes will have us wondering why it was so hard to get it together. Some secrets and disinformation will be exposed today. But the gains will be hard to hold on to as the need to be connected with positive future outcomes will be tarnished by the process. Don’t let the frustration lead you to falling back into bad habits. I know it is tempting to indulge to forget, but we must stay vigilant for our best outcome. The issues at hand today are clear pressure points that need transformation. This is shown by the almost exact square between Uranus and Pluto in its long term movement to greater functioning as a whole. We won’t be out of this cycle until in June 2015. The trick here is because of retrograde motion, this foul and difficult working point will bounce back and forth aggravating us until well into April 2017 where it will come to a close for now. What is set in motion then will be with us for some time to come. Rest assured that if we continue to stay engaged and demand our voices are audible, then there is a renewal period just after that. Just co-create something we want around for the next few decades.

Blessings and Peace,

Cosmic Waves Forecast February 6th - 12th 2015

COSMIC WAVES FORECAST FEBRUARY 6TH THROUGH 12TH 2015
For those who are afflicted with the Mercury retrograde, it is waning this week and will be direct by Wednesday, February 11th. It ends its journey at 7 degrees Capricorn, meaning that when it passes into positive territory, we will be considering money, possessions and the meaning of life with a clearer vision. Fortunately, I haven’t had any problems this time. But then, I live a reclusive life and it is hard for too much to affect me.

I hope you have come to some revelations with the Alchemical Meditation for Venus in Aquarius. I suspect many of you have a warmer feeling about the richness of relationships around you. Along with the expansion of technology, we are finding that life is far more diverse. Satisfaction can be easily gained by broadening our expectations to love and its many facets. Next week will be another good week to review the meditation and see how things have adjusted. The lessons of the next couple of weeks will be easier if you have a better understanding of your expectations and experiences.

Here is the audio blog part of the report: Cosmic Waves Pod Cast

Friday, February 6th brings a conundrum to many who have a hard time matching up what they want to do and what they should be doing. Good time to double check yourself. When in doubt, don’t do it. The consequences could get out of hand. Change for change’s sake is not a good idea today. With the moon in sidereal Leo, posturing, grandstanding and poor leadership could land you on a ship of fools. Don’t sail with an unproven captain.

Saturday, February 7th today on the other hand is much different. If you waited, you will find that when you balance out what is the highest good, the pieces will move in a smoother manner today. There could be a crazy wild chase when it comes to love today. If you are interested in a light and non committal relationship, it could be ok, but beware that you don’t mislead a well meaning partner as a passing of ship in the night. With the moon in sidereal Virgo today, let only the most practical of all actions and emotions into our sphere of reality.

Sunday, February 8th there is a strong drive for money, possessions and satisfaction right now. The trick will be to negotiate the difference between boring vs. extravagant. Give it the reality test by asking yourself if you can afford it, do you need it or simply do you want to impress someone with it. Don’t go for the tricks of the ego right now. There is an intense need to heal your broken heart, so don’t do it shopping. Find something healthier.

Monday, February 9th today is less conflicted. The moon has moved into Libra creating a positive angle with the Sun for most of the work day. Things that pertain to work and getting things in order will be right on target. You might even see a love interest pay you back for a long standing debt. Take it graciously, even if it is late or grudgingly. It is time to let any temporal debts to be squared away so that the future can be clear.

Tuesday, February 10th with the Moon beneficially aspecting Neptune today, consider those mystical gifts that nature has provided. This could also be a good day to get your fortune read. The links will be wide open, but know that the truth will be heard. So if you still insist on denial and self deceit, something different will come your way. But the edges will be smoothed over so that the news is acceptable. Do be careful who you trust with any communications.

Wednesday, February 11th things related to love, healing and your actions will be well met today. Do know that consequences are exaggerated. If you are being honest and present, then the best things will happen. On the other side, consider that shenanigans will be met with being revealed as a toad.  If there is information from the mass media upsetting you, know that it is not the whole picture and to wait for more verification.  Today Mercury goes direct bringing some hidden news to the surface. There is a fair chance that it will not be wholly truthful, so get your facts checked.

Thursday, February 12th could be a very tricky time to get caught doing naughty things. The Moon moves into Scorpio and will conjunct with Saturn today. If you have been waiting for someone to be exposed as a cheat or reprobate, this could be your chance to enjoy vindication or justice. This is another day where the intent of your actions will be greeted with unexpected expansion. Big lies will be seriously exposed. Honesty and keeping your facts correct will bring a big relief. There are no halfway results today.

Blessings and Peace,
Connie Hansen
