COSMIC WAVES FORECAST OCTOBER 28TH TO NOVEMBER 3RD 2016

SIDEREAL WESTERN ASTROLOGY

A general trend this week is the Trine between the Sun/Mercury in Libra and Neptune in Aquarius. What this can bring is a settling out of agendas and expectations concerning all of us and how we get along. There still is an opposition with the North Node bringing a question of how this will all fit together, but times like that must gravitate to what is best for the rest of us rather than idealism. With Jupiter in Virgo, getting practical is imperative and easier. I think this week will bring a bit of more centrist perspectives because we just must compromise so forward motion can happen. It would help if just considering the whole picture and how to fix what can be done, on thing at a time.

Starting Monday, a Grand Trine in Water with Saturn, Uranus and the Mid heaven can give us some real reasons to find peace with how things are going. More people will be focused on what can go well, vs our worst fears. I suspect a better discourse of what real plans for the future can look like. Be part of that discourse so your needs have a place in the solutions. Which in the long run, we should do together, including the powers that be. Stay engaged this week!

I would like to make a special note to those crafters of tinctures, oils and candles. Sunday and Monday are extra special days to make your crafts. I know that tinctures take some time to decoct but it would be a good time to bottle and label them. So if you have a craft of the earth that you love, take some time either of these days to create them. They will have extra energies from all the positive connections.

Friday, October 28^th, Moon and Jupiter in Virgo have been speaking softly with romantic Venus and stabilizing Saturn in Scorpio. With paying attention to what is done as well as said, some major esoteric changes have finally started to transform into something special. Do take time to just focus on the immediate world because the outside world is still hashing out details. Moon in Virgo.

Saturday, October 29^th, watch out for very sensitive or picky feelings reacting to the quirks of life. Today is more of a day to balance between too much precision and work vs procrastination and stagnation. I suspect many will be in the happiness of yesterday and will want to savor every ounce of memory and togetherness they can. And who would blame them? Moon in Virgo.

Sunday, October 30^th, the Moon crosses both the Sun and Mercury in Libra today. If you can allow yourself to connect with stillness today, you can start to get a feel for what will be occurring in the bigger picture as well as your own life. Different people run in different cycles, but many should be getting some positive traction on what they want in life and how it will appear. A great day for those who will just allow their thoughts and heart to meld into one. Moon in Libra.

Monday, October 31^st, a Grand Trine in Water will be holding together until November 6^th. This connects up with the Mid Heaven creating an Axis Mundi of harmony. The erratic aspects mixed with Saturn’s effort to move into a new direction will create an interesting day for those who are paying attention. This is both the familiar world and the outer world. Keep up those positive collective perspectives and help usher in a better era. Moon in Libra.

Tuesday, November 1^st, another great day to be pulling things together, but great and small. Focus on what is instrumental to matching what we think and what we represent. There is something very sweet about walking our talk and feel the satisfaction in that. Yes there is an underlying anxiousness because we cannot control everything. But when you drop the hype and start to create concrete plans, you will start to feel your feet touching the ground. Flying is fine, but sometime or another our terrestrial bodies, minds and hearts need to touch ground and feel secure. This is also a good time to take in perspective our ancestors and family members who have gone on to walk calmer shores. Their struggles give clarity to our own. Moon in Scorpio.

Wednesday, November 2^nd, some of the underlying tension of yesterday has released so make sure you don’t make a rash action to just set you back. Again, another day of so many things starting to make progress and foundations being laid for the future. Sometimes what gets us is the inability to make a move, so when you start to have that open up, it feels so good. Even if the outcome is not a sure thing. Life needs a bit of adventure to keep it worthy of our attention. Moon in Scorpio.

Thursday, November 3^rd, such a great day to be alive. The wheels of progress are in motion and you’re going to take romance and desires along with you. If you have a hard time today, you must ask yourself what have you have to let go of so you are freed up for this next step? This time of the Moon in Scorpio has transformation all over it, but this side of the passage should be about opening up some very lovely possibilities for what is next. Keep it positive so that is what comes into your life. Moon goes into Sagittarius by mid-day.

Blessings and Peace,

COSMIC WAVES FORECAST OCTOBER 21ST TO 27TH 2016

SIDEREAL WESTERN ASTROLOGY

I would like to invite you to view my astrological forecast for this election in my past blog. It seems to be very closely to actuality. 

This week Mercury has moved into Libra and will continue to track with the Sun. Even though there is an opposition with Uranus, that crazy maker, getting a grip on reality will start to help everyone’s mental health. Oppositions are mostly about finding counter balance to a situation. In this case it is counter balance to your head. If the mind is happy, the body starts to carry that vibe too. Consider this, there is the way of force and will, the way of reception and then the middle way of living in the now taking the high road. I suggest you use this time in Libra to take the middle road and see how it affects those around you.

Romance can take a bit of a hard hit this week if things are not truly complementary. Venus in Scorpio is going to start to approach Saturn bringing an important lesson in making sure that all your needs are being met. This is where you will find out if the relationship is purely physical or if there are lasting qualities to hold it together. I suspect that some people will realize that they are more mystical soul mates rather than a working couple. Remember, there are three kinds of love, Eros, agape and plutonic. They all make you smile, just in different ways.

Friday, October 21^st, the next couple of days will hold us in a state of suspended animation. It seems like we have to really come to grips with the real situation and figure where we stand. Balancing opposites and conflicts of interest are our work right now. The good news is that with some favorable air associations, (thoughts, knowledge ) our thinking will be able to hold all together until we can sort out the wheat from the chaff. While there is still hidden information that relates to the common good, what we hear today will be more fortuitous than usual. Moon in Gemini.

Saturday, October 22^nd, amid all the tension, allow some personal time to heal and connect up with your inner sanctity. In a world that has been black and white, left or right, right or wrong, we need to take a moment and start to see the subtle grounds in between.  I have to wonder if our connection to technology has not had us operating like a computer which is run on 0’s and 1’s. Take a step back and see the world without technology and re calibrate your feelings and mind. Humans operate on complicated nuances, not black and white. Breathe deeply today too, the air needs clearing out. Moon in Cancer.

Sunday, October 23^rd, if you were able to get a grip yesterday, today can bring some wondrous cross pollinated opportunities with what you want and who you love. Pay attention to the heart beat and you will then know the actual reality… if there is such a thing. Make your reality at peace with what you have and day dream a bit about the future. Moon in Cancer.

Monday, October 24^th, today will be great if you can pull together bits of good news and intuition. Watch for synchronies in your immediate world. My favorite is when I am just thinking about things, sometimes something interesting catches my eye to give me a hint. Like seeing a noteworthy grouping of birds makes me think of messages. Easy flows in traffic make me think that I am riding a wave to exactly where I am supposed to be. Look for your signals! Moon in Cancer.

Tuesday, October 25^th, actually a lot of areas of life are coalescing into something very nice, if you can tune out some of the rhetoric in the mass consciousness. Fear and loathing can help us avoid an accident or risky behavior, but at some point it becomes a stagnating force which begs to be evaporated. Today our hearts are begging for transformation, so why not transform into something positive? Moon in Leo.

Wednesday, October 26^th, today has a lot of really positive things pulling together. Also a great day to sort out truth and ideals (some big players in action oriented fire). Yes, we want the best, especially when you are doing all you can and feel shorted on the deal. The key suggestion I have today is to remember that when there is a shift from one to another that is peaceful, that is a win/win situation. Make peace, with what you want and what you can have. That is what “adulting” looks like. If you can step back from the hype and see the bigger picture. Moon in Leo.

Thursday, October 27^th, I suspect that what little happens today will seem calm compared to what we have been experiencing. Instead of finding data and facts, focus on your own health. The Moon in Virgo has us obsessing if we don’t get a grip. The outside world needs us, but we are just a part of that whole. Instead, look into your mental health and how that is affecting your physical health. They are tied together! Moon in Virgo.

Blessings and Peace,

COSMIC WAVES FORECAST OCTOBER 14TH TO 20TH 2016

SIDEREAL WESTERN ASTROLOGY

At first I wanted to down play the present Mars /Pluto in Sagittarius conjunction. Mostly because I felt we could not amp up any more than what has already happened. I was absolutely wrong. The fun and games, literally will peak around the 18^th, when it will shift and start to completely play out. The Sagittarian nature forces us to evaluate what we value. While that can be complicated and vary from situation to situation, we will remember these times of when many were forced to see the worst and the best. Mars conjuncting anything brings a lot of power or force to a situation. Pluto brings transformation or death. Put the two together and you have history in the making. There are still two agendas in play here. Showing us how abusive things can be if they are not run to a tried and true plan. In the long run, it is all for the best, so hold positive space and ride it out!

Friday, October 14^th, with the sour can come the bitter sweet. So whether you choose Nerds, sour gummies or lemon drops, individual experiences are going in the same direction, a example of what we have accepted and expected from life. With the Moon in Pisces today, she is connected with some wonderful fulfilling allies in the sky bringing joy and love to those who seek that human truth. There is a strong element connected to the Mid heaven which will bring harmony to the little guy and shambles to those who play loose with the rules. Happy people watching. Moon in Pisces.

Saturday, October 15^th, expect to observe some instant karmic kickback today. This relates to messages, from surprising sources. This almost relates to cyberattack or physic attack. Those who are empathic, be sure to guard yourself well. And please update your hard drives! In some ways it does not matter what the source is, just that it is happening. Follow known safety protocols! Again there is a duality in these times. When the outer world becomes garbled, there is clarity and sweetness in the personal world. Enjoy those you love and ask important questions too. Moon in Pisces.

Sunday, October 16^th, expect lots of energy to be at your disposal. Your instincts are good about how and when to start that project. Get with it early so that you have time to finish it up in a day. Prioritize things that move you into the future, like clearing out a space so that what is on the way will have a place to go! Moon in Aries.

Monday, October 17^th, finish up what you started yesterday so that you can have a sense of completion. This can help you take your mind off of the chaos and rhetoric and focus on something in your power to accomplish. Could be a very healing day! Moon in Aries.

Tuesday, October 18^th, hard work is the only way to luck right now. Don’t rely on elaborate schemes or easy money gambits. Outside information is polluted with agendas and shock and awe. This is also the day that Mars and Pluto are exact. Always take the high road! Moon in Taurus.

Wednesday, October 19^th, another day of shock and awe, but it is all for the best. A few of the cobwebs obscuring reality have been giving us glimpses of what is really happening, and better yet, what is the best way to proceed. Moon in Taurus.

Thursday, October 20^th, we all may be tuning into the general vibe of each other. In that moment of anything and everything all at once, remember that sorting out facts, fiction and delusion is always a painful task. If someone is having a meltdown, give them plenty of room. No need in being in their fallout. Moon in Gemini.

Blessings and Peace,

COSMIC WAVES FORECAST OCTOBER 7TH TO 13TH 2016

SIDEREAL WESTERN ASTROLOGY

As an overview of the week, we have a sense of a big reckoning on the horizon. On Tuesday, October the 11^th, Mars will be conjoining with Pluto for a few weeks. This adds a lot of volatility to any situation that is anything but friendly. We will sense our part in the cosmic play well before the events start to happen. In general, for the next few weeks, consider being extra careful in all encounters. Who knows what that stranger or even friend might be going through when it comes to how the future is going to affect all we know. If you can proactively visualize how we can come to center rather than fall off of a flat earth.

One of the catalyst of this tension is we have to get a realistic handle on what works and how that fits with what matters. This is on a big scale too. Jupiter in Virgo will be conjoined with Mercury in Virgo this week bringing news of important matters and the facts have to be internalized. No time to be sloppy! If not, our next set of lessons will be tough. Really tough. Remember that Virgo is all about making the pieces match up. Details, facts and symmetry are vital to this time. Here the devil is in the details for rationality. Hard to find in a world seemingly going mad. But if you can add compassion to your daily endeavors, you will defuse some of the chaos. Just be smart and not a martyr. Sometimes compassion is simply letting someone having an existential melt down have some private time.

When the chaos starts to overwhelm you, turn off the jive and take solace with more intimate matters. One of my favorite sites for Vedic perspectives offers a mantra at YouTube. This is free and uplifts the general level of consciousness available to us. I have been using this to help center at a higher vibration. It is Dr. Pillai and the Mantra is “Ara Kara”. Set the room for meditation and play and 

sing the chant. Just a suggestion.

Venus will be cinching up its time in Libra to engage with Scorpio late this week. Romances will heat up and lines will be drawn for what people need and how personal matters must be satisfied. Just when the outside world seems to be too much to bear, the intimate world can give us meaning to life and why we endure the outer struggles.

Friday, October 7^th, Reality checks on your philosophy and ethics are in store today. Concepts that don’t meet the needs of the future will be tested. Expect word wars as well. It would be better to bend rather than break. Dream time will bring some wild images to consider. Tomorrow will have you acting on those warnings or admonishments. You know you are on the right track when things start to move smoothly. The future (Pluto trine North Node) beckons us all to move as one. Moon in Sagittarius.

Saturday, October 8^th, this day can be hard hitting if you are off course. Take multiple meditation breaks to keep your center. Remember the week before when we had a chance to reestablish that feeling? Draw on that now! Lots of emotional backlashing and all out freak out around you. Keep yourself safe and just go where it is necessary. If you have a lot of pent up energy, go home and clean or do yard work… actually only work in the back yard. The front yard may be too close to what is crazy out there. Moon in Sagittarius.

Sunday, October 9^th, lots of edginess around you. Much of which can get out of proportion very quickly. There is a triad with Venus, Chiron and the Moon which can keep you balanced if you have compassion for outbreaks of meanness. Whether it is the snappy waitress or kids constantly fighting, know the need for love and a bit of forgiveness is really healing. Moon goes into Capricorn later in the day to bring some order.

Monday, October 10^th, the truth about the future is still obscured. Don’t make any judgments on big issues until more is known. In contrast that undercurrent of uncertainty has many looking for a fix…. NOW! The only relief is also the biggest noise in the arena…. We have to take on a new perspective that includes more people. Polarization is creating such a riff in the emotional fabric that many just want to be cut away from it all. Watch those in your circle that tend towards melancholy. They will need extra attention. Also there is an element of grounding should you try to find your center. For me, I just have to spend more time in my garden and meditation circle to get it back together. Retreat to your sacred space too. This would be a good time to start regularly doing the “Ara Kara” meditation on YouTube. Moon in Capricorn.

Tuesday, October 11^th, among the mounting realities, there is a harmonious moment in the chaos. Allow love and compassion to create a healing moment for someone you encounter. I know it might be hard to disengage from the intensity, but when you see that humans can be receptive, the encounter will be great. The vision of “healing the world starts with me” is important to follow over the next highly charged weeks. Stay centered and don’t add to the turmoil. Moon in Capricorn.

Wednesday, October 12^th, there will be a general sense of discontent everywhere around you. Frustration, difficulty and general helplessness will cause more charge in the atmosphere than we have felt in ages. Keep your life simple and out of the fray of the general world as people will be freaking out for a few weeks. Actually yesterday was the start of the final twisting of a highly tightened rubber band. By the 18^th to 20^th something is going to snap. After that we will see a lot of momentum burst forward. Since there is a positive connection also, know that you are on the right track if things start to move in your direction. If not, then quickly do some self-evaluation and adjust. Moon in Aquarius.

Thursday, October 13^th, with three T Squares and some really intense obsessive tendencies building. The only place for peace is love and compassion. Expect hate, fear, loathing and disgust to be felt in media and psyches. If need be just get the headlines rather than watch the news. I know many are just worn out from the dystopia some are living; but remember, if you are hurting feeling their pain, just consider how intense it must be for them. My only advice, meditation, meditation, meditation… and maybe a glass of wine wont’ hurt. Moon in Aquarius.

Blessings and Peace,

COSMIC WAVES FORECAST SEPTEMBER 30TH TO OCTOBER 6TH 2016

SIDEREAL WESTERN ASTROLOGY

An interesting concept has been floating around lately about honoring the value of a second new moon in a month. Friday will be such a day. The one that preceded it on the 1^st of September was an eclipse. If you want to honor this time, I suggest that you make some special promises to yourself to let go of behaviors that cause you grief. Yep, letting go is done all the time as we outgrow one state of being for another. Also a good time to let go of people who don’t make good decisions which end up impacting you. Even if they are lifetime friends. It sends a strong signal to them to grow up or move on from something that holds them back. They can reunite when they have made the change.

Friday, September 30^th, this could be a day that you will get bogged down in details and little movement forward. Instead of trying to finish up a complex project before the weekend, your time would be better utilized by filing, sorting, prioritizing your project so when you come in Monday morning and easily find data for that report. You may surprise yourself at the sheer volume of stuff you have for this job. You will have the weekend to mentally break down the major parts and then later they will be at your fingertips to pull together. What is working well is a bit of cosmic love heading our way today with a set of trines with Venus, Mid heaven and Neptune. We are all part of a whole, and contribute individually to that overall quality of life. Moon in Virgo.

Saturday, October 1^st, today will be easier to pull together that Three Musketeers chant, “all for one, and one of all”. Allow some healing into your life knowing that we are all coping as well as we know how. Simply respect someone for their path and reactions. After all, the lofty goal of everyone having what they need can still be met. But elements of greed will have to take a back seat to the process. Moon in Virgo.

Sunday, October 2^nd, still a great day to put a bit of love into your life. There is enough of a lull today for you to notice a hidden obsession trying to sabotage your weekend. Much of that difficulty has to do with what we are hearing and how it does not set well with us. My suggestion is instead of reading the short story, just hear the actual source or statement and see how that sits with you. This is a time to remember that we are taught critical thinking for times like these. Moon in Libra.

Monday, October 3^rd, the moon is directly on Venus today bringing some lovely moments to those in love. Could also be just a great time to find you center in the chaos. Balanced moments are so valuable to calibrate your center so you can call upon that feeling when the going gets tough. Overall a really great day to be alive. Moon in Libra.

Tuesday, October 4^th, another day of keeping a positive attitude. Listen for interesting inspirations and synchronies to help you stay on point. Today it is your choice which attitude you want to embrace. This time of year can drag you into the dark or it can simply give you pause for gratitude. Chose the more life affirming aspect unless you have to discover why you have not been getting along well with others. Then dive deep to find the source and then heal. Moon in Scorpio later on this afternoon.

Wednesday, October 5^th, this could be the change that moves you into events that test your patience. With the Mid Heaven continuing to be involved, I suspect that some of you will simply be getting tired the “system” failing. We all have a point where we just have to say, “no more” or “fix it now”. Like drawing a line in the sand. Negotiation is possible, but the tricks have to stop. A good time to make a point also. Moon in Scorpio.

Thursday, October 6^th, another great day to demand reality checks around you. This still involves the Mid Heaven and those things that bring us prosperity and cohesiveness. Tread carefully here as sometimes we expect too much or go too far for a goal. Life tends to give us mini tests when we face the difference between a need and a want. Have you evaluated that lately? Moon in Scorpio.

Blessings and Peace,

COSMIC WAVES FORECAST SEPTEMBER 23TH TO 29TH 2016

SIDEREAL WESTERN ASTROLOGY

For the next couple of weeks expect the conflict with Mars in Sagittarius squaring Jupiter and the Sun to bring revelations about the high and mighty. Of course it will be a test of character and ethics in your own world, too. Those who are faking it, will find lots of pressure to own up and walk their talk. While this will be hard for followers to accept, it is necessary for understanding our dark sides such as denial. Those elements relating to destiny and the changes in the future depend on this scrutiny of conflict of interests. Looking with empathy to those in crisis, I remember that those who are insecure tend to be more accepting of bad behavior because they see themselves having been in compromised positions. Just goes to show that life is really difficult without some harsh lessons on the road to self-discovery. But there is a time a place for forgiveness vs. discernment.

Last week Venus went into Libra which will bring proposals, affirmations and all around good news for those in love. Last week there has been a delay because of pressures to keep it hidden for a while longer. Like some test had to be passed before it was time to commit. Friday will be a day that many will be remembering for a long time to come.

Friday, September 23^rd, the world is buzzing with innuendo and those living in a house of cards. Shifts are likely with changes in public opinion. Expect public opinion to be very fickle for a while. Later this year, things will settle down. Add to that a strong day for getting back in touch with love and desires. Be sure that those who are not acting ethically, will be facing more resistance.  Today is when that special someone will say the magic words or make an offer you can’t refuse. Things shift again tomorrow, so pay close attention to your loved one. Of course things go underground tomorrow, but you will know more of how things are going today. Moon in Gemini.

Saturday, September 24^th, with a triad to the mid heaven, expect some positive news about how the world is moving. We all need a moment of rest from hard work and transformation that engages us all. There is agreement is all about moving into a new bold experiment with the promise of having the right stuff for the future. Also for the rest of the week, fortuitous actions and opportunities will move us forward on our personal fronts. Let your heart relax and just bask in some good vibes today. Moon in Gemini.

Sunday, September 25^th, we go from the Mercurial to the watery as realities seem to shift today. There is the effort spent to find a workable plan for stability, and then there is the letting in of good news, accomplishments and shall I say it, gratitude for what we have made it through. Off and on during this week lots of opportunities for some really special and happy things will arise out of the garble of “grounding” realities. Part of our job as humans is to lighten up and let go. When we have done all we can in a situation, then take a break and breathe in some fresh air and enjoy the change of seasons. Fall is upon many of us after a long, hot summer. For those of you who are precise, the actual equal day and night are today and tomorrow with 12 hours plus or minus a minute of each day. Moon in Cancer.

Monday, September 26^th, it will be hard to find fault in your life today. The harmonies will outweigh the one bit of insecurity. So much of life is being present with what is here and now. That is how the next phase is made. So keep it positive so there will be that foundation for tomorrow. Allow a few days like that and see how it affects our mood and outcomes. Also expect some big announcements in your immediate world when it comes to getting something special or about love. This will be a factor for the next few days also. Are people wanting to start to create their nest before the chilling winds of winter? Who knows. Just get into it and love it! Moon in Cancer.

Tuesday, September 27^th, for those who have a passion, give your energy to it today. Luck favors those who work hard or pluck up their courage and take a chance on their gift. So if you have been waiting for the right moment to follow your heart, this is the day. It will be fleeting, so don’t procrastinate to long. Do remember that because there is little to count on in the future, your steps may be more representative of momentum. It all is a matter of what you are doing.  So much is on hold right now, but you can still make some inroads towards your goal. Moon in Leon.

Wednesday, September 28^th, by today, so many hearts may be healed or on their way to fullness. After such a long period of shock and awe, times like this are extra special. Still a bit of resistance to hearing all the good news. As there is a bit of a power struggle between heart and mind. But hearts are making music. Try dancing to encourage the joy. Moon in Leo.

Thursday, September 29^th, obsessive elements today revolve around what others are expecting and just what you actually want. Sometimes it is easy to forget, especially when hopes and dreams are coming together, that there is always an extended orb of friends and family that will eventually weigh in on your decisions. Try to follow your heart but realize that others have invested a great deal of energy as well. They will be heard. Some of the verbal banter will be a reality check, for others this stress will be learning to set your own foundations and develop your individual style. Fully expecting respect for your choices. Moon in Leo.

Blessings and Peace,

COSMIC WAVES FORECAST SEPTEMBER 16TH TO 22ND 2016

SIDEREAL WESTERN ASTROLOGY

As I take a look at that T Square for another week, I just have to say “ugh”. For most, there are lots of life events that are just fine. The place where there is stress is where change is insisting on execution. It is our choice what to support. Minutia or sensational spin needs to give way to substance. Either we embrace what has to move or we die holding onto the untenable. None of this transformation will be easy with the Sun going into its yearly position in Virgo. Which brings more attention to detail and being aware of how we are seen. Couple that with Saturn in Scorpio which influence makes an intensity that is frightening to most of us.

Taking a lead from the Moon and Neptune in Aquarius, Friday and Saturday will bring a challenge to how we view our compatriots in this country. Instead of calling for a more loving and understanding emoting, why don’t we simply dig at what the real problem is, rather than hoping those who struggle will get over it. They won’t without change in their lives. Being engaged in that trauma makes our lives seem unstable, but remember, being under real stress is way more intense than telling another about what is going on. Stay tuned in, but demand that the core issues be worked on, not unproductive angry words.

There are some shifts this week in the planets and stars. The Sun will join Jupiter in Virgo. While this is a time when those who tend to be ill can be reminded of their vulnerabilities, a smart person would simply take this next month to get back into a healthy routine and get their check-ups. Getting down to the details of changes in routine and beliefs can be a focus this month also. Make the most of it.

Also Mars will move into Sagittarius on Sunday the 18^th. It is still stressed by a T Square so the end result will your very perspective or philosophy will be tested for truth and viability. So much of our life is what we believe. Expect a test this week. There is a time for holding onto immutable truths, but they are hard to sort from the manipulated perceptions that try to control us.

And some good news that the Mercury Retrograde completely goes out by September 23^rd. By then most of the internal work for now has been brought into light and you can then start to see the pieces come into form. This has been tough for those struggling with the T Square connections of actions and stability. For the rest of us, the time of fine tuning has brought up enough work for now. Do be aware that Friday is a Full Moon and an eclipse. This is not a time to wishful thinking. Keep it real, and practical. Otherwise the outcomes will be unpredictable and possibly unsatisfactory.

Friday, September 16^th, there is no hurrying the process of what ails us as a nation. There is significant help when we simply focus on our perspective and how we treat another. The full moon and eclipse are marking a significant time for changes in those areas of your life.  If you fall into emotional words, don’t beat yourself up. The pressures are out there to bring us to the brink of changing how we get along. Remember Neptune is still hiding the truth with manipulations and propaganda. If you have some unexpected lucky situations come up, use that moment to realize that in chaos there is possibility. Because the status quo has been shaken into pieces, it is time to gather and sort into new situations. The next week or so will bring some bright promises, just don’t get stuck in the mud that surrounds you. Moon in Aquarius.

Saturday, September 17^th, this will be a great day to connect up with your internal dialogue and intuition. Our gut feelings will be more reliable, that is if you have developed a trust and radar for what is really happening. I suspect that a sweet breeze of happiness will waft over those who are getting the flow of this new brave world ahead of us. Moon in Pisces.

Sunday, September 18^th, yesterday’s intuitions will be met with synchronicities today. Your actions will bring the desired results to your life. If they don’t then you need to re-examine what are your goals. They need to be in sync with the new paradigm ahead of us. Stay connected to your health routines. There will be plenty to overwhelm you and make you lose momentum. Try to not obsess on the world affairs today. Most of that is out of your hands anyway. Work on you and help where you can. Moon in Pisces.

Monday, September 19^th, with a Grand Trine in Fire that is close to the mid heaven, there will be some breaking news about leadership and other types of world events. Yes, the state of the union and our fellow humans has a existential connection to our own wellbeing. I suspect that many will be happy over this news whether it supports what they hold dear or not. The sheer relief of certainty or new direction means a lot. Now couple that with your own stability, some sense of security can be achieved. Be grown up enough to know that a future that supports more of us, will produce a more stable reality. Moon in Aries.

Tuesday, September 20^th, another day of good news but at this point we have had a chance to sleep on it and feel like we know where we fit into the future. Sort of primal to feel like we can know what today is but feel more stable when we know what the future holds. Something that has been fleeting for a number of years. The work is still there, but knowing the direction is golden! Moon in Taurus later today.

Wednesday, September 21^st, yesterday’s aha moments will now find whether you are in the right place or not. There is a Grand Square or Grand Cross today that will find many boxed into a situation. Here is where you know you need to work on your outlook more. If you are comfortable, then this is a day of settling into a new vibe. Enjoy that feeling, as the near future has more challenges. If you are living, then there is stuff to deal with. Be glad you can find times like this because there is a stretching of your soul when you see a situation, make a plan, and observe as it works out. Moon in Taurus.

Thursday, September 22^nd, Mercury is moving out of Retrograde and it’s “station”. Which means later today the world of hopes and dreams will start to show more movement. The hard part is actions will be short of success. Remember the messages that are sent, but delay actions until movement is possible. In other words, this could be a day of testing your patience. Amuse yourself with something philosophical rather than trying to ram your way forward. Moon in Taurus until late this evening.

Blessings and Peace,
