NEPTUNE SQUARE NATAL ASCENDANT

Neptune, the planet of illusion, fogginess, disillusionment, as well as transferrable insight, mystical alignment, vision, and psychic intuition, in square often brings forth vague or ambiguous insight.  This is a time when clarity is certainly not at its peak, and we need to be informed usually by others what exactly is transpiring in our lives. 

 

Our clarity is distorted because what is in front of us, we might be unwilling to accept.  We cloud our viewpoint because we don’t want to be informed of challenges.  Our objective should be to see things as they are and to not let our imagination run wild or to not allow our minds to bend the truth to fit our wants or perspectives.

 

When Neptune is connected to the Ascendant, this energy is often very important to us and what we are experiencing is open to the world to see.  This can be relationships, but in many cases, it may be about our career, our objectives, goals in life, the home and/or family concerns. 

 

There are roadblocks in the way and challenges to meet. These need to be met and they need to be met head-on even if what is taking place is unpleasant.

 

Neptune square the Natal Ascendant may have us confused on who we are or the way we should be representing ourselves in public.  Are we being real, or is there some imagined concept that we wish to present to the public? 

 

Are we seeing ourselves clearly? 

 

Can we make changes to be who we are? 

 

Do we know how we want to be perceived? 

 

These are all questions we may be asking ourselves, and in many cases, this could be our career or home environment or with family. 

 

If, for example, Transiting Neptune is in the third house, perhaps this is about the way we communicate daily or the way we view our relatives.  Are we in conversation with these people and what can we do to make things clearer? 

 

If Neptune is in the ninth house, perhaps there is litigation that needs addressing, or travel plans that are not working out as we might wish or perhaps our perception regarding our own personal philosophy on life is going through some alterations because it needs to be more clear and concise.

 

Much will depend on the house transiting Neptune is moving through and what natal aspects our Ascendant is receiving.  Viewing the whole chart will help define what to expect and how you might handle what is going on.  The natal chart tells the story, and the transits engage the action.

TWISTED FATE

There is a common belief that things happen for a reason.  We may, however, struggle to understand the why behind the circumstances at times.  We try desperately to find meaning behind experiences and lessons. Situations in life can drastically change our path and our future does not materialize as we thought it would.

 

The why is not always obvious. We may not understand why things happened but that does not mean there is no meaning.  Sometimes, but not always, after the fact, we begin to understand a little more clearly why life went the way it did. 

 

There are times we just need to role with the punches and accept the new twist in our path and at the same time believe that on some level it will take us to where we eventually need to go. 

 

Change can be difficult, but the outcome usually puts us in a better place when the upheaval is over. We can become stagnant in life but are comfortable in our stagnation, so we do not work for anything better.  Life then throws us a curve ball to get us moving, something we cannot ignore and from this curve ball comes change that brings us to a much more fulfilling place in life.

 

What appears to be one of the most dire situations in life can bring about wonderful opportunities or perfect situations we never thought possible, but we may not recognize it as such in the beginning. 

 

We must accept where life leads us. Certainly, question and review life’s turning points. There is meaning behind every event.  We can choose to adjust, or we can choose to struggle. It is a choice. Focus on your attitude and belief structure. It paves the way on how you will handle life’s lessons.

TAURUS NEW MOON

On May 7, 2024, we will be experiencing a very favorable New Moon placement especially for those with planets either in conjunction or in opposition to this Taurus placement by no more than 3°.  The energies of a New Moon signal a new beginning where we plant the seeds we want to grow in our garden of life.  It is the beginning of something that you might have been working towards or the start of something brand new.  Either way, it signals something new is ready to take its first steps.

 

This New Moon is in the sign of Taurus at 28° and will affect those with planets or one of the four angles from 25° of either Taurus or Scorpio to 1° of either Gemini or Sagittarius.  These are the placements of the conjunction and opposition.  Those with the square and sextile along with the trine may also experience a similar influence but likely not as powerful.

 

This is a time to initiate something that will come to its fruition some six months down the road when we are experiencing the full Moon in Taurus (November 15, 2024).  The Full Moon in Taurus will be the harvest of what has taken hold now and what you do during the next six months will tell the story of how things look at that time. We must nurture seeds to bring them to fruition.

 

In Taurus, the new moon speaks about creating something that stands the test of time, something that will build and grow and offer security on some level.  This has something to do with reliability and a steadfast approach. It is understood that it will take time to bring these energies into fruition and at the same time, understood that it will take hard work and a disciplined effort too.  You cannot become complacent and the effort you put forward is a direct indicator of the results you will experience.  If you don’t work hard towards an end result, you will likely need to either reevaluate or let go come the Taurus Full Moon.

 

The reason behind this push for hard work is that these energies have potential and are likely favorable. This is indicated by the placement of the New Moon which is sextile to Mars and Neptune. Mars is in the early stages of Aries and Neptune the late stages of Pisces.  Mars has to do with drive and ambition and is highly suggestive of the ability to really push forward with your objectives.  It is like a relentless force pushing you towards your goals and opportunities that are in front of you.  Neptune has to do with psychic perception and the potential of dreams becoming reality.  This is a gentle force where love and affection can be part of the picture, but insight is strong and a willingness to serve a higher purpose is part of the picture.  Together these indicators can assist in moving ahead, and because of the sextile, there is a suggestion of opportunities that are waiting but must be pursued if your wish is to make things happen.

 

There is also a trine from Transiting Pluto which is at the early degrees of Aquarius. Pluto is all about transformations and an indication that something is ending and that something new is on the horizon.  Pluto often suggests that there may have been power struggles and challenging situations along the way, but the trine suggests that the energies associated with this powerful force for change is in place and that it will take some time for you to completely see where this energy takes you. 

 

Know that something must be left behind for something new to begin and there are no halfway measures about what lies ahead.  The trine suggests easy flow and good fortune as well as opportunities at hand but expect some difficulties along the way especially if you are unwilling to let go of what has been in place previously.

 

Take advantage of the energies at hand with this Taurus New Moon.  Plant some seeds and nurture them.

DO NOT THROW AWAY WHAT IS WORTH KEEPING

We all walk the road of life together.  Even those that feel as though they are alone in life, share it one way or another. We are never alone, and even in the darkest moments, someone stands by your side.  Know this and hold it close to your heart.

 

Sometimes our road needs to be revamped.  Sometimes we must step away from those travelling with us and take our own path. Sometimes those that we wish to remove from our life are actually the ones that need to walk this new path with us.

 

Lessons come from many different channels, and we must learn to accept them and learn what we must and continue on. Ignoring life’s lessons will only bring a repeat of the lesson and likely bring it with much more intensity. Things always happen for a reason and quite often, at least in the moment of engagement, we are not aware of the “why” behind what is taking place.

 

Sometimes our lessons pull us away from the familiar into new circumstances; and other times, we are taught to revamp what we know. We seldom know what comes next, but it is important not to anticipate the worst. Far too often we become depressed with what has taken place and because of this, our mind walks down the road of worry, anxiety and despair. So often, the bleakest of circumstances are the pivoting moments to a future far better than we could have anticipated. Change, whether for the better or what seems to be a bleak future, can be stressful but also temporary.

 

Always think carefully before you act or make decisions to move forward. The decisions you make today will affect your tomorrows. Never give up. Change is guaranteed in life. It may be swift; it may take time.

 

Process your feelings and actions. When the lesson is learned, the door will begin to open to the new. Be ready to step forward. Discard what you have outgrown but don’t discard anything worth carrying forward.

JUPITER SEXTILE NATAL ASCENDANT

Transiting Jupiter moves approximately 1° every five days, so its impact, giving a 5° approaching orb and a 2° separating orb, will be approximately one month.  If it goes retrograde, this period can last longer.  Jupiter goes retrograde for approximately four months moving about 10°.  While in retrograde, quite often we will gain increased recognition and some luck in obtaining benefits.  While direct, its energies are more rewarding and it provides growth, expansion and general good luck.

 

Jupiter sextile Natal Ascendant promotes a general feeling of good luck.  It feels like a lucky time and often opportunities flow in your direction.  This is often quite personal but may also involve those close to you, especially important relationships.  Opportunities are at hand but in many cases, we just feel lucky and do not necessarily do too much to help things happen.  We feel that if we just go with the flow good things are likely to happen, and you might just be right, but sextiles want you to push ahead to achieve what you want.

 

You may find that you also change your appearance, some put on weight as Jupiter contacts the Ascendant.  Some make changes to the way they present themselves.  Others become more confident and because of this, advance in life.  Some advance in their career especially if the Midheaven is activated in a positive manner.  Some purchase a home or move into a new residence, especially if the fourth house is involved.  Much will depend on the sign that your rising sign (ascendant) is in and the natal placement of your Jupiter and its aspects.

 

This placement of Jupiter is a positive alignment, and when in place opportunities are at hand but utilize these energies in order to advance with whatever your plans involve.  Sitting idle is a complete waste of these energy. In some cases, however, things just seem to fall in place on their own, especially if what you have been doing leading up to this have been tedious and it now seems as though things have settled down.

FULL MOON IN SCORPIO

On April 23, 2024 at 7:48 p.m. EDT, we will be having a Full Moon in the sign of Scorpio at 4°. 

 

The Moon in Scorpio is in its fall position suggesting, although you will need to look at the natal aspects to your Moon for further ramification, that this is not an easy position for the energies of the Full Moon.  There may be some struggles attached to this energy. The energies will only be strong for those who have a planet or an angle either in conjunction to this position or in opposition to this position. 

 

Full Moon in the sign of Scorpio may indicate something of a challenging situation connected to sex, anger, disputes, ego interchange and a need to go deep within to find a resolution to a situation which likely began some six months ago when we had a New Moon in the sign of Scorpio.  This energy, which many experience shortly prior to the exact Full Moon timing, can be tumultuous and indicate a culmination of what has been in place.  Again, it is time to reap the harvest of what took place some six months ago.

 

Changes are likely in store. This positioning is square to Transiting Pluto, so it speaks of something ending in order for something new to begin.  In many cases, people tend to swim upstream and fight the current of change which creates more disruption to what was in place. Once this change has taken place, down the road, we will realize we are right where we need to be.

 

In many cases, there are no halfway measures with Pluto’s energies, and substantial transformation is at hand.  This may take some time to take in but again, it is taking you to where you need to go.  Some of the steps along the way may not be overly pleasant but what was in place no longer suits your new place in life.

 

With this Full Moon in Scorpio, it this is a time for integration, a time for regeneration, a time of transformation.  You are ready to advance to the next stage of life even though you may not believe this currently.  You should make adjustments, take control of the situation, be patient, learn the lessons that have unfolded, stand tall and never give up. Be sure to move ahead with confidence knowing that at times life dictates and we follow because of our own best interests.  Processing events will be important but do not dwell on the negative as it only brings you to an unpleasant place. Learn from the process and release.

 

Check your whole chart for the full story as no one influence gives the full picture.

SUN IN TAURUS TRANSITS 2024

For those with their Sun in the sign of Taurus, this next few months should be eventful.

 

What are the Sun in Taurus 2024 transits?

 

Transiting Uranus, Jupiter, Venus and Mercury are either already in the sign of Taurus or will soon be going into the sign of Taurus. 

 

Uranus and Jupiter are tied together in tight proximity throughout April 2024.  They form a conjunction at 21° so those with their Sun in Taurus and in close conjunction to this degree will experience Jupiter and Uranus forming a tight aspect in the natal chart.  Check the house position to get a clearer understanding of the area of life involved.

 

Uranus speaks of change and often disruption, although the change it suggests are what is required as things no longer suit your evolutionary purpose.  This change can come when you least expect it, out of the blue and may disrupt the normal flow of life.  You may have had a few hints along the way suggesting that you needed to make certain changes and if you decided not to listen to the nudge then perhaps the energies of Uranus become more profound and are often uncomfortable. 

 

Jupiter, on the other hand, adds to what is taking place but often suggests that what is unfolding is quite positive even if it does not look that way.  Jupiter brings good luck and fortunate conditions, but don’t forget its energies are mixed with Uranus which calls for change at almost any cost.  Uranus is known as the awakener and does just that.  It awakens you to the obvious and challenges you to move forward in unexpected ways.  Jupiter will enhance this situation and quite likely make it bigger than life.  The indicators are that it will be a change for the better but not without some drastic changes at the same time which may be uncomfortable.  Jupiter expands what it touches.

 

Venus moves into Taurus at the end of April and takes approximately 3 weeks to go through the whole sign.  Its impact will be less impressive but love and affection may be part of what it brings with it. It may also bring more social experiences which may involve a young female in one manner or another.  If, for example, the energies are in the fifth house, your children might be involved, or a love affair takes off.  Venus will join in on the energies of Jupiter and Uranus from about April 17 through to about April 27.

 

Mercury moves into Taurus in the middle of May (after an Aries retrograde cycle ending April 26) and finishes off its Taurus tour in early June.  Sometimes Mercury would give you lots to think about especially if you moved ahead with goals prior to it returning to direct motion.  In many cases, there may be disruptions to plans or slowdowns during its retrograde cycle, but this positioning has to line up with your natal chart,, and for it to have a profound impact Mercury should also be retrograde in your birth chart.  One way or another, Mercury will make you think things through and focus on actions that might have unfolded or on what your next step will be.

 

Happy solar return to our Taurus readers.  Enjoy your next cycle around the sun.
