COSMIC WAVES FORECAST JANUARY 29TH THROUGH FEBRUARY 4TH 2016

Sidereal Western Astrology

Friday, January 29^th brings a weird sense of working out what is possible and what is a day dream. In this day of trying to make sense of it all, which is a trend for a few days, will be open to real truthful information. Lovers will be communicating and actions will bring peace to those you care about. There is some friction in the skies with some harsh truths being expressed. But sometimes, if you just want understanding, even harshness can bring conciliation and closure. Moon in Virgo.

Saturday, January 30^th things are a bit less complicated today, but much of the same sentiment as yesterday. Work towards things that will bring healing and a better future. Say what you mean even if it might be a bit harsh. Odds are it will get the attention needed and a better handle of where you fit in with your circle. Also if you are ahead of the game with what is coming down the pike, change the subject with some reading to help build new vistas. Moon in Libra.

Sunday, January 31^st. I am at odds to describe the Uranus/ Pluto / Jupiter/ North Node conflict. Even though we feel like progress is being hard to nail down, there still are elements at play that are getting attention. I guess the best way to describe this is trust the process you have adopted and ride out the results. There can be unusual events come your way to build a great foundation, but then that has struggles with moving forward, much like an errant shopping cart with a stray wheel. Depending on your inner orbs, not much may happen, but that is ok. The work may need to be done by others around you rather than you being the dynamo. Moon in Libra.

Monday, February 1^st. Establishing or hold down your best intentions because a new irritant is added to the mix. Lovers will be experiencing lots of irritation or hurdles over the next several days. Take heart as all of this helps you perfect your relationship. Lots of really great energy to keep it pulled together, but Uranus will be adding some peculiar vibes your way. Think twice before you speak to assure that you are really expressing what you mean. Foot in mouth disease is rampant. Moon in Libra until evening.

Tuesday, February 2^nd. Be aware people are seeing if you are walking your talk today. Being true to your word should be easy for those with well defined personalities who are walking in integrity. Expect some edginess from those who are battling themselves. The stars are not going to support those who use deceit to get their message across. Watch how the pieces fall when you see a bit of “come uppance” around you and in the big world scene. Pick your sides carefully. Moon in Scorpio.

Wednesday, February 3^rd if you demand ethics and rules of engagement to be followed, this could be a day to expose those who do not. Keep the faith that “right will out” the dross. Some really strong aspects today, with a moon in Scorpio can have some diehards harpooning themselves in full view of everyone. If you live a less stable neighborhood, keep to yourself and watch your back so that you are not some causality of someone’s freak out.  This weekend could turn into a big deal especially for those in love. Moon in Scorpio.

Thursday, February 4^th an intensification of earlier this week is starting to peak. It won’t be here for a few more days, but it is happening. The detractors are weird and unusual things trying to breakup a relationship. The benefits are Jupiter is tracking with destiny to bring about the best case for all. Perhaps for lovers it is simply a time to listen carefully with an open heart. Healing needs to be allowed to happen even if it is scary. Do things that support good communication and listen well also. Another day of two way communication. Speak your truth and listen to what is said, even between the lines. Moon in Sagittarius.

Blessings and Peace,

COSMIC WAVES FORECAST JANUARY 22ND THROUGH 28TH 2016

Sidereal Western Astrology

Friday, January 22^nd expect a continuous flow of communications until about 2pm Central time. Then the gaps will start up again. Those who are affected by Mercury retrograde will have a rough week. The usual strategy of double check everything you can will work best. Life does not end with such times, but our culture does not support us doing the real work of Mercury retrograde which is internal work. What is really going on with you when things frustrate you? If you respond with anger, dig into your heart and understand why. If you respond with giving up, why is that and is it appropriate right now? Definitely expect your personal triggers to be pushed today. But instead of “re acting” find your path to right action and understanding who you are. Moon in Gemini.

Saturday, January 23^rd the next two days expect the urge to merge or create a better love nest to take over your thoughts. Many will be questioning why their environment is missing solace and coziness. Be wise in where you focus that energy. The cosmic urge is to grab whoever is close and set up housekeeping. Anyone with just a little experience knows sometimes it is better to be alone than with bad company. Today would be a better time to apply Feng Shui or Vastu Shastra to their homes rather than bring home a stray off the street… so to speak. If you are in a distant relationship, keep a level head about rushing into promises of cohabitation. By Tuesday, the cooled blood and reason will return. Full Moon in Cancer.

Sunday, January 24^th brings a Grand Trine in Water. This is a day to spend doing something spiritual. An excellent time to sit back and feel the shift in your personal quarters after yesterday’s Feng Shui applications. Spend some time meditating, but instead of a clear mind at first, express gratitude and pleasure in where you are and how your surroundings suit you. Then, open a blank mind for suggestions from your higher source. Life is a give and take between what we create and what needs to be created . Keep the communications going both ways. Also take note that if you want someone to fit into your life, this is a good time to add that to your meditation. Moon in Cancer.

Monday, January 25^th some surprising information is on the way today and potentially information that does require life altering action. For those who are thrown into this shift, know that much of your next direction is being put into motion. Yesterday, you were wanted home and hearth, well today you will probably be put into a situation where the next part of that is found. Do be sure to check for lost messages to prevent the “great trickster” today. Moon in Leo.

Tuesday, January 26^th the flood gates to love and passion are open and flowing. The bumpy part to this transition to a better home and hearth is a sense of discomfort with things moving too quickly. Have a plan B if things get uncomfortable. But with Sunday’s desires being sent, there could be a very quick response by today. I know, prudence says to allow time for the true nature of a person to show through, and that will always be the best way. Does not mean that is how things will evolve right now. Good luck! Moon in Leo.

Wednesday, January 27^th try not to get caught up in having “it your way” right now. It could well blow up in your face. Anything that is said is blown out of proportion. So gauge your words well to those who will be receiving them. To complicate things, this is a day that you really need to be true to yourself and tell it like it is. Instead of a state of negotiation, you must use diplomacy and hold on to important parts of your position. There is a vise pressing down on what people think they need vs. want. A dicey day at best. Moon in Leo

Thursday, January 28^th day two of tinderbox relations. If you are working with a loved one, remember that if honesty is followed, then actions will stay pro active. Any lying, even white lies, will set off an unwanted chain of events. Again a day of diplomacy and considering all sides of the situation. I know you can do it right as long as you keep to the high road. The difference of today will be that your feelings will be practical rather than manipulative. Also be sure to self nurture if today has been particularly difficult. Otherwise you could have the complication of getting sick. Tomorrow is big choices and challenges. Moon in Virgo.

Blessings and Peace,

COSMIC WAVES FORECAST JANUARY 15TH THROUGH 21ST 2016

Sidereal Western Astrology

Friday, January 15^th brings to bear that, for the next week, love and your desires will have a hard time. Challenges of where things have to grow and your ability to face the personal damage from the past will be important to face. Get trusted advice from a confidant or professional. Security is highlighted right now also with Venus and Saturn squaring Chiron and Neptune. A stressful week is created by a mix of difficulties with hard to verify information and personal fears. Transformation is what drives us to try harder and work through all the muck. For most people it will seem like an donkey lured by a carrot. What’s working is practical affairs and interesting connections, especially on line. Today will be particularly important to end the day with sober reflection of the facts and fears. Moon in Pisces.

Saturday, January 16^th  there will be a tendency to want to take control of the situation that seems so unstable. If you can just take control of your emotions instead, there will be less stress. This is a time to carefully gauge who’s drama it actually is. If you don’t have creative or constructive input to a situation, step back and let fate take its course. Trying to fixate on a specific outcome right now is like trying to paddle up a raging torrent. Better to see where the flow is going and the right situation will eventually arise in the new surroundings. This is a time to trust the process. Moon goes into Aries mid afternoon.

Sunday, January 17^th striking out independently may cause you heartache. Consider the old rules of engagement and take some time to socialize and connect with people in your network. Tomorrow will be better. Moon in Aries.

Monday, January 18^th  today is a Grand Trine in Fire. Consider how opportunities arise and what prize they will lead to at the end of the journey. Many people will renew their resolve to get healthy, but I suspect that mostly apologies and realizations will come into the picture today. If you need to settle a dispute today, come to the discussion prepared and give it a go today. I know Mercury is still retrograde, but other factors will set in motion the right events. Maybe, not what exactly you envisioned, but something that is definitely next generation. Moon in Aries.

Tuesday, January 19^th yesterdays efforts will find foundation and materialization today. Go with what was achieved and settle into your gains. Just beware that something is hidden right now, and possibly a new challenge to the situation. But like an onion, there are layers that are uncovered as you peel away the inner workings of a project. Have a little faith in yourself and your ability to solve problems. Moon in Taurus.

Wednesday, January 20^th today is a better day to count your blessings. “It is, what it is” should describe today. No wiggling out of the situation. Each lesson we have provides an opportunity to understand special dynamics in life. Take care of yourself and your health. Today is better to have a philosophical view of your situation. As with everything, things will continue to develop and you will be able to come from a calm center rather than giving into the chaos. Moon in Taurus.

Thursday, January 21^st some people will be asking themselves, ‘should I go or should I stay” a hard question to ask. Especially if you have been loosely attached for a while and your new relationship is pushing your triggers. Instead understand why you have those triggers. No fair just reacting to a situation. Those tender points can heal if you give them some healing salve. Keep the communication going during this Grand Trine in Air and let things settle out.  Avoid the extremes or no consensus to a problem to be solved. Moon in Gemini.

Blessings and Peace,

COSMIC WAVES FORECAST JANUARY 8TH THROUGH 14TH 2016

Sidereal Western Astrology

Friday, January 8^th starts a two week dance with a very special kind of revelation. There will be some very important situations come up that give us a sense of understanding and then personal power to deal with the mainstream. A wake up call can be viewed as uncomfortable force to change or a welcome door to what is next. Depending on individual stubbornness, ease of mind can be found and experienced. Yes, some strange bolts of lightning can be observed, but by now, the seekers of a better way are ready for anything. Moon in Sagittarius.

Saturday, January 9^th Personal understanding of the outside world will get an intuitive boost today. Big changes are on the horizon as well as personal perspectives changing. Try to understand more of the situation, and why you may be triggered into negative response. Or is it a negative response if you simply see things for what they are instead of another’s controlling projection? Big questions to ask yourself. Romance is going to have its challenges also. While the unusual connections will prove the most beneficial, there can be little comfort or healing in the unknown. Don’t get in a hurry. All will reveal itself in due time. Perhaps there is a lesson about instant gratification conditioning that needs to temper impetuousness. Moon in Sagittarius.

Sunday, January 10^th now that first set of assumptions and questions are answered, the next phase is to find the money and foundation for your new views to be supported. Some people will be out in the cold or just about to be there, so have a bit of sympathy if someone is in need for a short term hand up. No one is immune from being destabilized! You could be next, so build a bit of good karma this Sunday and help out a person not an institution. Some people only have faith and you are part of that process to let that work. Moon in Capricorn.

Monday, January 11^th today remember, “those who help themselves do the best”. If tempted to defer a responsibility to another, just dig down deep and view your own abilities to rise above the challenge. This could be a great day for job hunting or planning an estate. Just work on the draft of that estate though, because Mercury is still retrograde. It never hurts to start going through the process and let the hindrances come up to help refine the end product, especially if last weekend was particularly life changing. Moon Capricorn.

Tuesday, January 12^th today the path will be much easier to deal with. A new understanding of your skills and abilities will start to be evident. There will be more of a sense of how we interconnect with those around us. It can be grounding to know that even if you had to chose between two difficult paths, this turns out to be the best path possible. This particularly relates to those in public policy who are walking a tight rope of legality vs practicality. Moon in Aquarius.

Wednesday, January 13^th there is a T Square focused on Venus and Saturn in Scorpio. This could be an explosive day for relationships especially if you have been depending on another and they give you a lie to cover their own failures. This could be the “straw that broke the camel’s back” for some. The intense nature of this T Square could be deadly. If any safety concerns arise for someone close, contact authorities who have the skill to deal with it. That Scorpionic quality could take out anyone and everyone. Be safe. Moon in Aquarius.

Thursday, January 14^th there could be some deep regret of events from the past few days. Many will be out of touch and dropping out over the stresses the last few days have generated. Find a way to seclude and nurture your nerves and find stability before you lose all self control. If you don’t have to work today, take a mental health day off. Get a massage, do some meditation, eat a full but healthy meal and avoid intoxicants. If you are steamed up over poor responses or interactions with those who are transferring their frustration, then go outside in the cold and take in a cold breath. Let each breath cool your overheated emotions. Cool down the anger, and mental spin. Then take a hint from nature that there must be a time for stillness so you don’t burn out. Use this through the 23^rd because the stressors will be at work all that time. Be cool and level headed!  Moon in Pisces.

Blessings and Peace,

COSMIC WAVES FORECAST JANUARY 1ST THROUGH 7TH 2016

Sidereal Western Astrology

Friday, January 1^st first I would like to say Happy New Year to all those who get these astrological updates! In a pro active spirit, I want to make note that Mercury will go retrograde this week on the Tuesday the 5^th. Mercury has started its journey in Capricorn which affects strategic plans and money. Know that most of this retrograde will be in good aspect with Jupiter the opportunist, until the 18^th. So bear witness to situations that your communications initiate and speak only well of the future. Try to see the good luck in anything that may otherwise be disappointing. We are still in a phase of creating something better for ourselves, so why not promote the best? Use the silver lining argument for a while. Try not to sign any contracts right now. February may be better. Otherwise the other influences are romance will take a back seat to creating a comfortable feel to your surroundings. Moon in Virgo.

Saturday, January 2^nd. Today’s influence will have you instigating some very positive changes for health and healing (Sun & Pluto in Sagittarius sextile to Chiron in Aquarius). There is more focus on mental health and supporting philosophy, without the airy fairy denial vibe. Also this next week will find unusual support for bringing the spirit of life into your day to day expectations. The Saturn in Scorpio /Uranus in Pisces trine can present opportunities to inspire you with verses for everyday. I love using a method of bibliomancy where I have a book of short verses, or tarot cards and just flip until the book opens up. That is the inspiration for the day. It is always a good idea to let light into your morning while you are fresh and see how that can guide your day. Attitude is everything right now, as today, you will be particularly pressed to make attitude course corrections.  Moon in Virgo.

Sunday, January 3^rd. the day starts out with a sense of a weak mind and no energy. Why fight it? Today the Moon conjuncts Mars in a weakened state in Libra, so sort out yesterdays choices and fine tune what you can. We are all works in progress; keep your sights on the high road. Yes there are attention getting stumbling blocks everywhere, but the test is to work around them. Moon in Libra.

Monday, January 4^th there is a positive triad with the Sun/Pluto in Sagittarius as the focal point. Allow this day to usher in revelations of how well recent adjustments and decisions work out. There are times when learning to be receptive to events is more beneficial to trying to control every step. Today the universe does not respond well to short sighted or tightly held control. There is so much more out there and we are a part of the whole, not the king or queen. Moon in Libra.

Tuesday, January 5^th. If you haven’t felt the shift yet, today it the day that areas around security, systems and money may start to be challenged. Mix-ups and foul ups are frequently to blame. For the next few weeks, double check bank statements, contracts and whatever relates to communications.  Maybe turn off your auto correct as new relationships may be strained over chaotic word choices. Moon in Scorpio by mid day.

Wednesday, January 6^th for success, follow up on all memos etc from work and business. Heaviness is over a number of people and they are just not fully engaged in what they are doing. Maybe their new beau is not texting, maybe they lost an important tax document… who knows. Cover yourself and do a lot of follow up. There is some luck with new endeavors but be aware that some co creating will be necessary for success. Two heads are always better than one. Moon in Scorpio.

Thursday, January 7^th today we will want what WE want! You just can’t force things to happen. Look for synchronicities to fill in the next line of exploration or endeavor. Those riding the wave of self discovery will find the most reward. Just bear in mind, not all of it is fun and easy. But growth is defiantly there! Much of this relates to your outlook, not your altruistic or fantastical dreams. Moon in Scorpio.

Blessings and Peace,

COSMIC WAVES FORECAST DECEMBER 25TH THROUGH 31ST 2015

Sidereal Western Astrology

Friday, December 25^th, for those who are so wound up in their own drama, the lips will engage before the brain does. If you are entering a known hassle zone, take a deep breath, and prepare mentally for what is likely to occur. There is something interesting that happens when you are prepared for those slights, slanders and other jabs from frustrated relatives. The sense of your preparation tends to slow down their mudslinging and muddle. Such angry actions are done only to get the better of another who is unprepared or open, especially you have managed a smile with feelings of good will. Smirk instead and see if the rhetoric tones down. Full Moon in Gemini.

Saturday, December 26^th a lot of feel good moments if you can see love and growth in those around you. An astrological Yod is directed at the Moon in Gemini creating a focus on what the sides of a situation happen to be. If you can associate with the positive healing aspects of love and forgiveness, just about everything around you will flow together. Venus is in a lovely position for those who have intimate partners or spiritual cohorts to spend the afternoon. Go where you will be uplifted, find something inspirational to consume and see what magic the day holds. Also note that Mars has gone into sidereal Libra, weakening Mars’ harsh edges and stinging actions. Maybe a moment of seeing both sides of the situation will help guide new directions.  Moon in Gemini.

Sunday, December 27^th a great day to allow the different forms of love into your life (Eros, agape, and plutonic). Warm and juicy connections with the right person could set off a great new year. Keep your eyes and heart open for what is around you. Electrified Uranus is involved also, so even the internet could manage some joy and happiness in those connections. This evening, a Grand Trine in Water involving Uranus in Pisces, Saturn in Scorpio and the Moon in Cancer bring deeper understanding of how our spirits connect and bringing into the world something that will bring happiness to you. indulge in some moon gazing tonight, if so inclined, make a wish. Moon in Cancer.

Monday, December 28^th I love it that I can use this euphemism again, but if you go with the Force today, all paths lead to where you should be. Lots of wonderful synchronicities coming around today so keep sharp on the lookout and keep your heart in a joyous song. You will attract more of the same. Also lots of good news concerning things progressing towards power, prestige and overall goals. Moon in Cancer.

Tuesday, December 29^th there is shift in the air concerning your desires and relationships. Struggles concerning advances and different spiritual perspectives can clash. This relates more to hitting trigger points rather than a real difference. Focus more on graciousness and foundational importance’s in any relationship conversations. Work related issues need attention as well. Moon in Leo.

Wednesday, December 30^th with a T Square effecting the day, expect someone saying the wrong thing at any time. Foot in mouth will run amok with those who are on the wrong side of either real public opinion or oblivious to the effects of brainwashing. Neptune in Aquarius is squared and opposed by the Moon bringing the wrong thing into the light. This could be a big political faux paus or social blunder. What really saves the day is to run any comments you may want to blurt out through your filters of compassion, practicality and what fits a more harmonious future. Many of us with perspective recognize how far things have gone. Moon in Leo.

Thursday, December 31^st. if you have a special date tonight, be aware that illusions will abound. There is a caveat, as long as manipulation for self satisfaction is not the goal, but instead there is a positive trend setting for the next year. Remember that what is meant to happen, will, and the foundations of the future will start to take form with today’s actions. A certain level of weird and wacky can happen to bring out your true self. If that self is still is still in illusion, expect the evening to fall flat. Otherwise, good luck with your adventure into a Happy New Year! Moon goes into no nonsense but earthy Virgo this evening.

Blessings and Peace,

COSMIC WAVES FORECAST DECEMBER 18TH THROUGH 24TH 2015

Sidereal Western Astrology

Friday, December 18^th any holiday parties attended today will be boisterous, and full of social faux pauxs. As long as you keep it sober, and watch the show, you will stay on track. There is a T Square to endure today that makes things you see, especially those in authority, will cause both humor and scandal. Its all is a matter of perspective. Listen carefully for secrets from the mouths of the guilty. If you are trying to keep damage control… good luck today as there will be towers falling everywhere.  Moon in Pisces. 

Saturday, December 19^th the stress of the day will be on our deepest desires. While intense and destructive actions may happen, there is an immediate shift into where your heart says you will be safe. This sanctuary is in unusual places so be open minded. This is a great time to start something that heals the mind and feeds the soul. If it is reading some new philosophy or renewing your dedication to creating internal peace, you should find just what you need when you go searching. If you ask for advice, be aware that there are some factions out there that want to guide you the wrong way. Go for trusted opinions or keep it simple with something tried and true. My choice is to start back to more of an afternoon meditation and inspirational reading time. Soaking in the sun to break up a busy day will become my winter practice.  Moon in Pisces.

Sunday, December 20^th issues about your future may come up in a big way. There have been two forces at work for a few days and by Wednesday, the choice needs to be made. If you focus on power and prestige, know that ego driven actions will be tested. Actions that bring conversation and greater understanding will bring progress forward. Your choice today, is to choose between possible temper tantrums and navigating the wisdom path. Everyone will have varying degrees of challenge. Moon in Aries.

Monday, December 21^st the Sun has been in Sagittarius for the last few days. That holiday feeling has been blocked by power plays, lies and shenanigans. Buy Christmas Eve those will take a break and open up for the real deal. There is a lot of focus right now on the Pluto/Mercury conjunction (transformation and communication). We all have a certain level of internal work to make this world better. The Sagittarius gift of love, charity and happiness should start to flow into more of our lives, should you chose to allow it. Enough is challenged to give you reason to fear chaos, but only if you chose to not design that chaos into interesting adventures and opportunities to grow. A Kite formation is calling people to work towards what they want today and make a wish on this Winter Solstice! The right mix of action, compassion and get down to business will bring success through mid afternoon on Tuesday.  Moon in Aries.

Tuesday, December 22^nd finish up your plans and wishes by mid afternoon. The flow of happy circumstance will bring cheer into your heart. Also, take a bit of time to put things into perspective today. Change is whirling around despite the commitment of the Grinch’s. Stay focused on the whole picture so that tomorrow’s glitches will be easily dealt with. Moon in Taurus.

Wednesday, December 23^rd, you know you are on the right track if things are moving smoothly. Should you find resistance to plans or agendas, you know it is time to re-consider your actions and prospects. A greater flow of compassion is in the air as well. Don’t pick fights with those who have agendas. It would be better to leave them alone. Let karma deal with them. Gather those who you love in you circle and start to do some serious gratitude and find peace in your heart, even just for a few hours. Moon in Taurus.

Thursday, December 24^th, ask yourself two questions today. Who loves me and who understands me? That is the place to put your attentions. There will be continued conflicts of those who want to divide us so that we can be conquered by loneliness and fear. Give those sorts just what they are pushing on you, by staying with the healthy relationships only. Yes, I am saying to abandon those who want to cause strife and sorrow. And trust that if there is something salvageable, that the light of the time will shift them, if they will allow it to happen. Think Scrooge and his story. No need to let their bitterness bring you down. Right now we need a burst of love in this transforming world. Moon in Gemini later this afternoon.

Blessings and Peace,

Connie Hansen
