Neptune Direct
Life gets hazy as nebulous Neptune moves forward
Nebulous Neptune is the planet of illusion and confusion, and when it goes retrograde for roughly half of each year, life can feel a little too real.
Neptune is the planet that protects us from reality when it's too harsh. Neptune gives us faith, spirituality, and dreams. So when it goes retrograde, we see things very clearly and find it harder to escape.
Neptune Direct
Neptune Direct, on the other hand, gives us a break. It sort of encourages us to live in denial and ignore the nagging fears we don't feel quite ready to face. But that's OK, because it does inspire our imaginations and gives us faith.
There is a dark side to Neptune Direct, as there is any time you choose fantasy over reality. And that is we may take our escapism too far and delude ourselves into doing the wrong things -- like staying in bad relationships or jobs. But if we try to think a little bit more objectively we can avoid that pitfall. Use this time instead to appreciate your ability to dream and the expressions of compassion you meet. Neptune wants to show you the ideal beauty in the world, and this is your chance to let go and feel your way through it with all your heart.
