Neptune enters Pisces, 1:04 pm CST, USA.

February 7, 2012
Saturn retrograde at 29 degrees Libra : 8:04 am CST, USA
Full Moon at 18 degrees Leo : 3:54 pm CST, USA

Synchronicities between new friends are popping up quite a bit the last few days, the last gasp of Neptune in Aquarius !  Synchronicity and friends are Aquarian ruled.  Pisces / Neptune are the cosmic connections, the net, the web of life.

As Neptune shifts signs, little oddities and revelations will be zinging around, particularly relevant as Saturn (traditional ruler of Aquarius) is stationing retrograde with a Full Moon on the 7th, four days later.
Saturn is in Air (communications) and Neptune will be in Water (emotions), Full Moon will be in Fire (actions regarding your passion).  Full Moon will bring clarity to your Leo House, a culmination in creative action followed by a spreading of seeds (disseminating moon) of knowledge  gained in the last moon cycle as the moon wanes to dark.

~~~~~~~~~~~~~
Neptune eases closer to home plate and already I can feel my body getting pickier about the food I ingest.  I had just a taste of meat a couple of days ago – forget it.  Couch time, sick.
So thanks micro organisms inside, message received Loud & Clear !

Neptune girl will be good, green leaves, lotsa H20, meditation and quiet.  It’s better for my ethric body, I work and think better when not working on all cylinders to digest.  Moon and Cancer rule indigestion and I have Moon on 4th (natural Cancer house) opposite Neptune in the natal.  Stomach issues due to sensitivity.  Also, I am a multiple conjunct Virgo which is opposite Pisces – so compromise with the digestive process (Virgo).  Heads UP, Neptune cometh
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~

An increase of sensitivity will be felt  in your house of Pisces in the natal.  You will be in compromise with the Virgo house, and experience tension with Gemini and Sagittarius.  Growth in these areas is imminent in the next 14/15 years.  Your opportunities lie in Taurus and Capricorn, but you will have to get up and fetch it.

Where does Pisces fall in your natal ? Check the house by house guide below for where you will be feeling Neptune.
Be aware Neptune high vibration is mystical, compassionate and inspirational.
Plus, fabulous music,and  films are headed our way- YES !!
Neptune low vibration is deception, delusion, addiction and feeling* trapped.
note: I wrote feeling, NOT being.  It’s all about the mindset, folks.

1st- your identity, personality 2nd- your values, possessions, 3rd-communication, how you think, 4th- home and family, 5th-romance and creativity, 6th- work and service, health, 7th- partnerships, 8th- sex, reasearch, metaphysics, 9th- higher education, travel, 10th- career, status, 11th- friends and society at large, 12th- mysticism, spiritual healing (natural home of Neptune)

Saturn will station direct June 25, 2012 at 22 degrees Libra at 3:01 am CST,USA

Planets between 29 and 22 degrees Libra will get a dash of Saturn retrograde in the communication sign of Libra.  Work and self- discipline turns the focus inward in matters regarding relationships, partnerships and equality.  Inner balance will be actively sought in these matters.  Find the house where Libra falls in your natal chart and apply the house by house chart above to see where you will be feeling Saturn retrograde.

different dimensions

I am off for a few, cleaning and clearing the energy in my home.
Then I will return to organizing this site.  Thank you for your patience.

Neptune is flowing, soon to return home to Pisces on February 3, 2012.
She will relax in home waters for 14 years until 2024/5.

Neptune is my most highly aspected planet, and I feel the need to move and grow myself.  My Mars is in Sagittarius (my 12th house sign- Pisces natural home) conjunct Vesta (hearth and home, sacred fire) I follow my intuition, it is time.

Vesta is conjunct Venus in the sky now in the sign of Pisces.  She is activating my 2nd and 8th houses.  (What is mine and what belongs to others.)  Mars is Rx in Virgo, the need to sort and purge (Mars is applying to natal Pluto ! ) financial documents (Venus rules money) and a fire (Mars) will be lit tomorrow eve !  I will return soon after the weekend (USA) refreshed, invigorated, with energy flowing.  WoOo HoOo
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~

Find Vesta in your chart to find the home of the sacred fire in your belly.  Find your house of Pisces to locate where she is lighting the beacon for you now by transit.

Locate Mars Rx in Virgo, and any planets in Gemini or Sagittarius (squares- internal) or Pisces (opposite- others and compromise) for how Mars Rx is activating your chart.

Monday the 23 Mars Rx at 23 degrees Virgo, Mars direct at 3 degrees of Virgo on April 13, 2012.  Any planets between these degrees will be getting the spit & polish so to speak.  Mars is the blade, prune well to grow tall and lush ~


I thought I would try some Osho divination: The Book of Secrets.
One thousand and thirty-nine pages, and I got this …
This is soOo Mars Rx !
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~

Why ?  Why is fight so associated with love ? 
It is associated because the same energy can move in different dimensions.  You may call it love or hate.  They look opposite, but they are not so opposite, because the same energy is moving.
Energy can move, can change directions.  It can become hate, it can become love — the same energy.  And the same energy can move inward also, so whenever you have the impulse to do something (fight / anger energy), stop ! 
This is not suppression.  You are not suppressing anything, you are just playing with energy–just playing with energy and knowing the workings of it, how it works inwardly.

Larks & Owls

The Siesta by Frederick Arthur Bridgman

Neptune going into Pisces may very well bring the return of the luxurious nap.
I’m a night owl…you ?

Using magnetic resonance imaging-guided brain stimulation, scientists (click) tested muscle torque and the excitability of pathways through the spinal cord and brain.
They found that morning people’s brains were most excitable at 9 a.m. This slowly decreased through the day.
It was the polar opposite for evening people, whose brains were most excitable at 9 p.m.

Evening people became physically stronger throughout the day, but the maximum amount of force morning people could produce remained the same.
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
Click here for more on your chronotype.  Chronos is time, or Saturn.  Sleep cycles are built around rhythms in our bodies, light, food intake, blood pressure and sugar all determine our personal rhythm, our body clock.

I have experimented asking people if they are larks (am people) or owls (pm people) by looking at their charts.
I have speculated on planetary placements and emphasis above or below the horizon, the position of Neptune and Moon (sleep) and their aspects.   At this time, my results are across the board.

Insomnia can be indicated by hard aspects to Moon, Mercury, Mars, Uranus or Neptune in the natal.

Mars superpowers what it transits with energy, restlessness.
Mercury transits can indicate increased nervous tension.
Uranus transits indicate a sudden change.

If any or these transits are in hard aspect to Moon or Neptune – it may disrupt your sleep patterns.
Dreams are Moon, Neptune and 9th house (Sagittarius) or higher planes of thinking and traveling.

So in that case, siesta !
I love naps.  Neptune most highly aspected, Moon exalted in Taurus, with the majority of my planets in the south. 
(Near the mid-heaven or noon).

Are you are an early riser…?… or a night owl ?
How is your Neptune for sleeping and dreaming ?

How cool is this ?
The photo is from here, a terrific photo-filled post about the sculptural artist Jason deCaires Taylor . (click for artist website)

My biggie Neptune (sea) square Venus (art) in Leo (creativity) really digs this !
My Neptune is also opposite Moon, (Neptune= ocean, Moon= tides) so oceanic art is right up my alley ~> Sculptural art placed in the sea and left to age ?!  Very cool !
(Saturn rules age and time, and is my chart ruler)
I was a sculpture major in college, so this really speaks to me.
Working and weaving art in tune with Mother Nature.
(Saturn rules work and spiders/weaving webs/ knots.)
Naturalists are Saturn and Neptune ruled.  Neptune rules inspired art.
Does Jason’s art inspire you..?

Look to the Neptune in your natal chart to see how you are inspired, and how you inspire others

Look for conjuntions to indicate where matters are dreamy, foggy, underwater, basically you are operating on pure inspiration and spiritual guidance.
 (This is also also where you need to be cautious of illusions, and delusions.)
Look for any squares to Neptune to see how you will reach deep within for inspiration.
Look to any oppositions to Neptune to see where others will directly inspire you.

wave bye bye

Wednesday November 9 at 12:54 pm, CST USA…
Neptune goes direct ~ >
turning to head back home to Pisces  ~>  WaaHoOoo YiPpiE !

There is light at the end of the tunnel for Pisces + Neptune peeps !
Hallelujah,  AMEN !

Direct motion begins at 28 degrees of Aquarius.
Neptune will drift ashore in Pisces on February 3, 2012.

She will relax in home waters for 14 years until 2024/5.
Bliss !

I felt such a powerful whoosh when Neptune was back in sign this summer.
Water on Water feels much better than Water Electrified.

~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
Neptune (higher octave of Venus), is the planet of spiritual intelligence.
Being zapped by Uranus (the higher octave of Mercury) and flip-flopping polarities in an air sign known for detached scientific intelligence is not akin to Neptune’s dreamy, inspired, foggy, stealth.

Check 28 degrees in the house of Aquarius in your chart, for when Neptune goes direct, you will feel a shift in perspective  ~> an outward manifestation of dreams and visions cultivated during June to November in that house.

Making Waves

We have a lovely Pisces (Neptune rules) Moon (feelings, public) conjunct chiron (healer) and Neptune (oceans).
Moon and Neptune both trine (harmony) Mercury (messenger of the gods) and Venus (love).
Neptune (oceans) trine Saturn (conservation).

I was cruising Radiohead info and found this great site Project Oceans.

I love it that Radiohead is so incredibly environmentally active – refusing to jet across the globe to play in a television studio – they dial it in – pointedly explaining why to do otherwise is ludicrous.
oh yeah baby I dig you.  My Saturn has a crush on your Saturn. 

Obviously, I’m not done talking about how great Thom Yorke (click here for more Thom) is, so pull up a seat Radioheads..!
Thom has Mercury, Venus and Neptune in Scorpio.  Intense and powerfully perceptive, he is able to read the collective pulse (Mercury, Neptune, Venus in Scorp) of unconscious human need (Mercury opp Moon) and forge (Pluto rules Scorp) new tools for building a more environmentally (Saturn conjunct Moon) sound future for us all.

That Virgo stellium is a powerhouse !
Virgos appreciate life in all its forms.  They see the web of life, the sacred patterns present from the micro to the macro scale.  They are earthy healers here to serve and protect.

Thom has Virgo Mars (desires, action), Jupiter (hope, philosophy) conjunct Pluto (the big game-changer, regeneration) and Uranus (the wild and free).  He is progressive and pioneering, a leader in the environmental movement from a musicians standpoint.  The band has taken solid steps to cut the amount of carbon emissions they produce during touring, as well as backing ecowatch groups and artists programs raising awareness on global warming.

Thom has Libra Sun (balance) opposite Aries Moon which is conjunct Saturn (Earth).  Moon and Saturn have a Mars flavor which brings a militant attitude toward finding balance with the public (Moon) and Earth (Saturn).

Libra Sun opposite Aries Moon conjunct Saturn – all are in Cardinal signs – they are initiating plans of action and making waves.

Thom is a number 5 life path, and has a 5 Sun.
5= Change, flux and adjustment
His Moon is 7 = Divine order, the mystical, a turning point.
Sevens are the triumph of spirit over matter.

Spirit (Sun) in the sign of balance (Libra) using art and music (Venus rules) to shine a reflection toward the masses (Moon) of what humankind is unconsciously doing to our (Mother, Moon) planet (Saturn, Earth).

I’m glad you were born to spin around on the planet with us, thank you.
