Modern Psychological and Humanistic Astrology teaches us how planets and other cosmic bodies have unique archetypal symbolism. We can also interpret the zodiac like any foreign language. All celestial bodies have both positive and negative energies and it’s up to us to choose which ones we use. Where foggy Neptune is concerned, core keywords to understand the astrological influences of this planet include dreams, imagination, confusion, escapism, illusion, boundless, fantasy and deception.
I’ve been feeling the effects of Neptune since transiting its home sign Pisces in February 2012. First this hazy gas planet *kissed* my natal planet Mercury. As Mercury is the planetary ruler of our mind, thoughts and communications, this transit triggered new ideas about relocating far from my home in California and pursuing a career in musical theatre as a lyricist. I did both and neither turned out as I’d hoped. Note: Transits are based on Eastern Time Zone. Cosmic energies can be felt days or hours before and after the precise astronomical alignments. I recommend Llewellyn’s 2021 Daily Planetary Guide for exact timing of transits and much more. *Moon Void-of-Course is a time when whatever you initiate (e.g. scheduling appointments) will very likely need to be redone.

Overview: Mostly Moon magic, but action-oriented Mars may stir mixed messages from nebulous Neptune. Look to the houses in your natal chart where the planets fall for greater insights. Sunday, April 4: Happy Easter! The Moon in Capricorn reminds us of responsibilities and practical living as we celebrate the holiday with family and friends. La Luna gives a sense of spiritual idealism and universal love while softly speaking to Neptune; then shortly thereafter conjoins with Pluto for feelings of power and accomplishment. |
