Under the Influence, Sun square Neptune,

It’s the end of May. There is major Neptunian action today which is in effect until the Full Moon on June 2.

Gemini Sun squares Neptune in Pisces which can be excellent for spiritual, creativity, meditation and dream work as it is a light in the fog. Except that Sun in Gemini is ruled by Mercury which is currently Retrograde making it more difficult to figure out which way to go. 

Staying connected to Source enables you to find the Light at the end of the tunnel.

The positive side of this aspect is the ability to bring the Light to the Soul and mind. Seeing the Source directly and understanding old lessons with Mercury Retrograde. According to spiritual tradition one cannot look at the Light of God directly. I think that is a control mechanism. 

Do pay attention to your dreams tonight. Before you go to sleep tell yourself you will be AWAKE- the Light of consciousness in your dreams. Approaching Full Moon dreaming should be strong. 

Are you feeling like you can’t figure out which was to go because of the smoke and mirrors show? All that foggy jazz? 

I was just on the phone with a client of mine who is in Russia undergoing this transit very heavily. See chart below. Besides Neptune squaring her North and South nodes at 9 degrees of Gemini/Sagittarius the SUN is conjunct her North Node today @ 9 + degrees.  If you have planets at those degrees of MUTABLE Signs and Virgo you will feel this over the next few days. 

Sun square Neptune Astrlogy Tara Greene

Neptune rules indecision, avoidance, escapism, DEBT, addictions, deep unconscious memories, self-undoing, karmic lessons, self-pity, martyrdom.

Do you feel that you are unconsciously setting yourself up to fail?

I am now under the influence- the perfect wording for a Neptune transit. Neptune rules intoxicants.

I never take drugs, Am very sensitive to any medication, and alcohol. For some people this works the opposite all they are into is escapism. Hollywood, glamour, illusion, delusion, addictions. 

Neptune is at the midpoint, mid-way between my Sagittarius Sun and my Moon. 

It is extremely dreamy and spiritual and creative but can also bring up all of your unconscious material to clear through compassion forgiveness and self- acceptance.

The cure is in the letting go. Pisces, surrender. It is the MOON in the Tarot  

The Moon is a gateway. Traditionally a three-way path ruled by Hekate the Crone Goddess. This is where reality and unreality merge. It is the darkness of the birth canal. The black hole. The Twilight Zone. A nether world. A parallel universe merging point, a crossing over.  Fear of the unknown. Phobias. Past life karma. Atlantis. Dolphins, Christ.

Remember to have faith. There is always light at the end of the tunnel. 

Moon squares Jupiter also today. 

You can look at your deep complexes with strength.

August Astrology Preview by Tara Greene

August Astrology preview the 8th Month- KARMIC – 8 = INFINITY 

karma astrology Tara Greene

August is jam packed with major shifts and changes, it gets more intense towards the end of the month. You will be reeling.

Reminds me of an old CAptain BEEFHEART Song – “She gave me white jam and I don’t know where I am.”

Remember we are under the JUPITER= Expansion in CAncer in a VOLATILE T- SQUARE- like a sling shot- between two powerhouse planets 

OPPOSING PLUTO In CAPRICORN – moving Retrograde  and Squaring URANUS IN ARIES also Retrograde+ VENUS gets in the act now.

The TErrorist alert for the Months of August world wide- definitely mirrors this tense explosive situation.

August 7 JUPITER opposite PLUTO  9 degrees Cancer/Capricorn can be very rich but also dangerous

Jupiter opposite Pluto In Capricorn is like “HAPPINESS IS A WARM GUN.” to the American Rifle Association.

Aug 8 –  Mercury enters LEO- THINKING is “ALL ABOUT ME!”

Mercury in Leo – “You’re so vain, you probably think this song is about you.”

Carly Simon’s famous song is the TUNE for this aspect- see link below-

shifts the brain waves to Royally attuned – more baby news and Royal obsessions

Ideally Mercury in Leo is thinking straight from the HEART, they will be done.

Otherwise it’s BIG DRAMA KING’s and QUEEN’S time, ego’s will be in big snits

LEo is EGOcentric, verbose, loud, over the top, jockeying for position, VAIN, 

Your brain wants to PARTY hearty.  Summer’s almost over, HAve fun while the Sun is in LEO.

The conversation is- over the top- generous, proud, loud, roaring, boasting, self- expressive, creative,

al LEO”s will be ” all eyes on us.” 

Leo minds are like Big kids playing dress up.  Mercury in Leo till August 23

RELATIONSHIP FOCUS!!!! VENUS COMES HOME it’s all about LOVE

LIBRA’s you hold sway and the focus now especially after Mercury leaves LEO on the 23rd and enters VIRGO.

Love, values, money is in the balance, so can be a karmic time in the markets as thing’s rebalance.

In relationships everyone is simply nicer, more conscious of the “other.” 

It’s all about being gracious, living in harmony, enjoying beauty.

People value being with others, it’s a great time to socialize, throw parties to influence those with taste and money

WOmen will be more flirty, dress more fabulously, be careful not to overspend!

Great time for a wedding! Art show, fashion, designer anything, creating art, making whoopee!

Mercury Retrograde in PISCES -BRAIN FOG, smoke & Mirrors,

remembering where you came from, womb memories, remembering your True Self.

Were you  born during a Mercury Retrograde?

Statistically 1/3 of the population could be born during a Mercury Retrograde period. If you want to get your chart done for free there are many great online resources to help you find out.- see below

BORN THIS WAY – Mercury Retrograde

I have many a client have an amazing epiphany when they GOT IT  about being born during a Mercury Retrograde. That wrongly screwed in Light Bulb turned ON!   YOU function at best during Retro periods.

PIsces image

Mercury Retro people don’t know how really bright they are. Usually they are labelled as having learning disorders just because they think outside the box. M. Rx’s in any sign are all very creative,  the world hasn’t been wired  to accept people who think differently until now. They think in a less linear more feminine way.

During a Mercury Retrograde it’s your turn to be in your Retro flow which ever sign.

NOT born this way

Trying to swim against the current won’t work.

with Mercury retrograde  Don’t start any new endeavours, buy new things, usually they have to be returned are deficient etc.

you can buy used things. That THRIFT SHOP song is a great Mercury Retro in Pisces song -recycling.

10 BEST THINGS TO DO during this PISCES  Mercury Retrograde

1. SURRENDER your MIND to Intuition, Rewire your head, TRUST your feelings. Connect to your Guardian Angel.

2. BE CREATIVE- Explore your artistic side,draw, paint,drum, sound, sing, drama classes, photography, knit,

3. PISCES is the dream world,sleep as much as you can. Tune into your dreams.Write them down. Have your dreams analyzed I offer this service,

4. YOGA and MEDITATION  will be easier now. Practice daily

5. Watch old movies, connect with movies that inspire, move you, make you cry,inspire hope.

6. Heal your addictions, understand the mind, emotion, body connections, SWEAT,  sweat lodges, steam baths, foot baths in very hot water

7. Go on a Mini Vision Quest- why am I here? What’s my True Purpose?- see below:

8. Do charitable Work- give away what you don’t need, volunteer, see the suffering in the world and do something to help

9. Go fishing, visit a Sacred Place, allow spirit to speak to you directly, have an epiphany

10. Love Yourself, compassion, rekindle your faith, go to Church, Temple if that suits you.THE BIG FISH THAT GOT AWAY story is usually an oh poor me Pisces kind of story. Do ceremony as a right of passage of an old cycle.

Review, rewind, relax, resuscitate, reflect, relinquish, relish, all the RE- things, RE-memeber it’s symbol is Rx  a prescription.
