April 2024 Horoscopes for all Zodiac Signs

What does April 2024 have in store?

This month begins with Mercury in retrograde (April 1-25, 2024). During this time, confusion, communication issues, and technological breakdowns tend to surface. Unresolved issues from the past may pop back into your life, forcing you to face them head-on. People from the past may re-enter your life, as well. This is a time to review, re-assess, and tie up loose ends. It is important to not make major decisions during a Mercury retrograde transit, as communication problems and crossed wires are a hallmark of this retrograde.

There is a Solar Eclipse at 19 degrees Aries on April 8, 2024! This eclipse will usher in new and exciting beginnings in your life, so use this time as an opportunity to start fresh. In conjunction to Chiron, this eclipse represents an opportunity to work through and heal our innermost wounds.

On April 11th, 2024, retrograde Mercury will be conjunct the Sun (also known as Mercury Cazimi). On this day, new information related to a past issue or event may present itself to you. Use this opportunity to hear the other person out and show your vulnerabilities.  Since this conjunction is in Aries, be sure to remain calm and patient in your dealing with others, and resist the urge to speak too impulsively.

Later in the month, on April 20th, 2024, Jupiter will reach a conjunction with Uranus in Taurus at 21 degrees Taurus. Expect unexpected announcements and surprises on this day. There will be an electricity in the air on this day, and it is best to leave your agenda as flexible as possible.

This would be a great placement for business partners, given that Capricorn rules business. While not emotionally demonstrative, this couple can depend on each other in times of need.

Composite Moon in Aquarius

This couple expresses their emotions in an aloof, detached manner. They have a strong foundation of friendship. They treat each other as equals, and may bond emotionally over shared friends, clubs/groups, and long-term goals.

This is not the most emotionally demonstrative couple, but they truly ‘like’ each other. They encourage each other’s individuality and give each other plenty of freedom.

Composite Moon in Pisces

These two are very forgiving and tolerant of each other. They bring out each other’s compassion and sensitivity. They bond over music, arts, and spirituality. The couple feels most emotionally content when they are alone.

In some cases, the relationship might lack definition and boundaries can be quite loose, so it is important to be very clear and honest to one another. The couple may feel they have found their soulmate in the other person.

On the downside, this relationship might be somewhat unrealistic or overly idealized by at least one of the partners, so honesty and clarity are of utmost importance here.

Asteroid Psyche in Synastry

In Greek, Psyche is the word for “Soul”. Not surprisingly, it is ruled by Neptune and Pisces, which represent dreaminess, fantasy, and soul connections.

It is considered one of the most important asteroids, as it represents one’s inner psychology and our ability to uncover who we really are.

In mythology, Psyche was a beautiful girl, but her stepmother Aphrodite was very jealous of her (sound familiar? This is a very common theme in movies).

Aphrodite’s Son, Eros, ends up falling in love with her. The couple finally end up together after Psyche successfully completes a series of tasks Aphrodite assigned to her.

Eros and Psyche were true soulmates and were able to overcome barriers to be together. It is a story that shows how love can transform us and unite us with our soul’s true desire. To read the Psyche’s full story, click here.

The May 5th Lunar Eclipse: A Sudden Twist of Events

Two weeks after the Solar Eclipse on April 20th, there will be a Lunar Eclipse on May 5th. Lunar eclipses are usually a time for endings and epiphanies.

The Natal Chart of Prince Harry: An Earthy Prince

Prince Harry was born on September 15, 1984.

His Rising Sign is in Capricorn, which means he approaches life in a serious and no-nonsense manner.

Capricorns Rising people come across as very serious and formal, which is very fitting for a Prince!

They can be quite hard on themselves, and are far more critical of themselves than anyone else could be.

They are naturally ambitious people with a flair for business and leadership.

Capricorn Rising folks do not come across particularly friendly, but rather mature and capable. They are dependable, practical people who can be relied for their calm and cool approach to problems.

The Ruler of this 1st house, Saturn, is located in his 9th house of travel, faith, and higher learning.

Harry is very fond of traveling, but the planet Saturn here can indicate journeys related to one’s job or duty.

Traveling and exploring new cultures and worldviews is essential to Harry’s identity.

Harry also has Pluto, the ruler of his 10th house, in his 9th house, which indicates a career related to travel, higher learning, and/or faith.

Harry’s Sun is in Virgo in the 8th house. Virgos are known for being busy, productive, health-conscious people with perfectionist tendencies.

They are hard workers who feel best when they are being productive. They are service-oriented individuals who like to help others.

They are detail oriented and have critical minds. Virgos are very particular people, especially when it comes to health.

Sun in the 8th folks are usually very aware of, and even preoccupied with, mortality, so the combination with the Virgo energy means he is someone who likes to take care of their health and avoid accidents.

Some may even describe them as overly cautious in this regard.  This makes total sense given his childhood and the death of his mother.

Harry’s Moon is in Taurus in the 4th house, which indicates he is strongly connected to his family and roots, particularly his mother.

His Moon is opposed by Saturn, which indicates a rather cold and duty-bound upbringing.

Harry had to grow up fast because he had to grow up early, and may feel he missed out on his childhood due to all the duties placed on his in his early life.

Harry might find it difficult to express his ‘inner child’ because he never learned (or was discouraged on) how to show his vulnerable side.

Interestingly enough, his Descendant is in Cancer, which means the Moon rules his 7th house of partnerships.

It is not surprising there have been so much drama in his relationship with Meghan.

Saturn represents duty, career, and responsibility, and it directly opposes his 4th house Moon, which represent both his mother and wife.

In Harry’s life, there will be a constant push-pull between his duties and responsibilities, and his real of emotional security and partnership.

Given this, it is understandable that he felt he needed to choose one or the other.

Harry’s Venus in in Libra, which means he is a very relationship-oriented person. He feels most complete when he has a partner.

He is fond of cooperation and harmony in his romantic relationships. He will compromise with his partners, as he values justice and fairness greatly.

Harry’s Venus is in the 8th house, which means he seeks intense connections with others. He is ‘all-in’ when he finds someone he loves, and expects the same thing in return.

This placement is also great for wealth, as it indicates marriage will bring shared wealth and success, but also scandal.

Harry has his Mars in the 11th house in Sagittarius, which indicates he is an adventurous person who loves to travel.

Sagittarius represents the truth and honestly, so Harry will learn a lot about himself through his travels. He has the spirit of a true adventurer.

Mars in Sagittarius detest authority and are naturally rebellious; the more you try to control them, the more frustrated they become.

His Mars is in the 11th house, which indicates he puts a lot of energy and passion into his friends, goals, and humanitarian causes.

Harry has, or will have, friends from all walks of life. His Mars is conjunct Uranus, which indicates he can be quite impulsive and unpredictable.

He is naturally rebellious and has a strong dislike for authority.

Harry’s Jupiter is in his 12th house, which is an incredibly lucky placement.

I find that people with Jupiter in the 12th house are incredibly fortunate, particularly when it comes to taking major risks. Many “daredevils” have this placement.

This placement also indicates a very rich inner life.

He is a spiritual person who is interested in exploring the inner workings of his subconscious mind. He is very concerned with helping the less fortunate.

 

As per Harry’s chart, he is a very cautious individual who does not make big decisions without very careful consideration. It is clear from his chart that his decision to leave his old life was not taken lightly.

There is a very clear opposition between his duties (Saturn) and his partnerships and emotional security (the Moon).

He loves being in love, and is willing to compromise to make his partner happy. Combine this with a very cautious Virgo Sun, and it is unsurprising that he chose a new life path.

Prince Harry is a fascinating figure, and I am excited to see what he does next!

The April 20 Solar Eclipse: Change is Coming

This Solar Eclipse will be anything but boring.

The Eclipse will take place at the last degree of Aries, which is known as the “anaretic” degree, or “degree of fate”. At the end of a sign, we are closing a chapter and getting ready for a new journey, but change is sometimes not very easy.

It can instead bring about crises or sudden events, which jolt us into a new situation. There will be a sense of anticipation in the air as we near this eclipse.

To complicate matters more, Pluto will be exactly square the Solar Eclipse Sun. This indicates very deep transformations are about to take place, including at the global level.

This year, Pluto will enter Aquarius after a 15-year residency in Capricorn, so we can expect a lot of changes. Pluto in Capricorn represents the transformation of power, tradition, and the status quo.

full moon astrology beautiful sky pink green

When it first entered Capricorn in 2008, a financial crisis occurred when the United States housing bubble burst and American real estate value collapsed. While financial institutions were bailed out, unemployment, suicide, and distrust increased among the public.

Pluto uncovers the truth, which leads to lasting transformation. Since Pluto entered Capricorn, much corruption has been exposed, leading to an awakening among the public.

Pluto in Capricorn has exposed the problems of having too much power at the top. Now that we have entered the final degrees of Capricorn, we will see more turning points take place. Take, for example, Prince Harry, who is challenging the institution of the monarchy and uncovering the truth of his experience as a royal.

Now that Pluto is entering Aquarius, we are likely to see a shift from top-down power, to bottom-up change.  We may see rebellion against oppression of all sorts, which will give way to a more equitable society.

We can expect a lot of progress in terms of science and technology, and how it can make the world a better place. I hope we can get to a place of less division and more understanding, so that we can make the world a better place for us all!

On a more personal level, this eclipse will bring about change and transformation in your life. You may uncover certain truths about yourself or your life, which may inspire you to change your situation.

As a result, you may decide (or be forced) to leave a part of your old life behind.  This eclipse may bring about major power struggles and sweeping changes in the houses the eclipse takes place.

In your life, where do you feel least powerful? Where have you given your power up to others?

You may be faced with uncomfortable truths during this eclipse period which will triggers major changes in your life. This will not be an easy eclipse, but sometimes things need to be broken down before something better can be introduced.

Eclipses are in effect for approximately 6 months.

What’s up with Khloe Kardashian?

We all know the Kardashians. They are American royalty in many respects: they get tons of attention in the media, are fashion icons, and people love to hate them. Love them or loathe them, everyone has an opinion on them. On the recent episode of Keeping Up With The Kardashians, they went over the drama that occurred between the family and Jordyn Woods (Kylie Jenner’s best friend) when Jordyn made out with Khloe’s baby daddy, Tristan.

It was well known to the family for a very long time that Tristan was a two-timing piece of trash. He had previously cheated on Khloe when she was pregnant with their daughter, True. Instead of kicking him to the curb, she took him back, which was a huge shock to everyone.

She had been through rough relationships in the past, as well. She was previously in a relationship with Lamar Odom, but their relationship broke apart after his drug problem and infidelity became too much for their relationship to endure.

Khloe is known by her family and friends to be someone who works very hard in her relationships, and doesn’t let go very easily, even in the face of infidelity and terrible mistreatment.

On her Instagram, I’ve seen hundreds of comments of fans pleading with her to ‘smarten up’ and find a partner who will respect and love her as she deserves. In the end, however, Khloe always seems to make the ‘wrong’ choice and end up in these situations over and over again. Why is this?

Khloe is a Cancer, a sign which is characterized as loving, caring, sensitive and co-dependent. Cancers are sweet as sugar, but if you cross them, you will get pinched. Her Sun is conjunct her natal Venus, which means she is a relationship-oriented individual. These types of people love to be in love and feel most complete when they are in a partnership. They are prone to loneliness and need to have a relationship to feel complete.

Her Ascendant is in Aquarius, meaning Leo is on the cusp of her descendant. This means that the Sun is the ruler of her 7th house. The 7th house ruler represents the type of partners we will attract in our lives. This planet, in addition to Venus, can be used to determine patterns in a person’s relationships. Unfortunately, Khloe has some pretty bad aspects to her Sun which explain her relationship past, and will inform her future in love.

Neptune, the planet which represents illusions, delusions, substance abuse, secrets and everything ‘behind the scenes’, opposes her natal Sun. People with this aspect tend to be forgiving to a fault, and tend to only see the best in others. They may attract or be attracted to partners who have mental or substance abuse problems, and feel a strong need to ‘save’ them. It is hard for them to let go, particularly when they feel their partners truly need them. They are vulnerable to manipulation due to their gullibility and inability to see the bad in others.

Looking at their synastry, there are some red flags that point to trouble. The Cancer-Pisces connection between their Suns is fabulous, as they are both very sensitive, emotional human beings. However, Tristan’s Uranus opposes Khloe’s Venus, which means that she will never feel he is truly committed to her. Their relationship will be very unpredictable and erratic, and she will not feel as though she can truly count on him. I saw an episode of the show where she was talking about how they don’t see each other too often & blamed it on his basketball schedule. From what their synastry tells me, Tristan experiences on-off feelings for her which prevents him from truly wanting to commit. If they were to rekindle their relationship, this will continue. Setting into a stable, predictable relationship will be very, very difficult with these two.

As if that was not bad enough, his Neptune also opposes her Venus. This is a classic indicator of deception and lies. This indicates that when caught, he may ‘play the victim’ to receive forgiveness from Khloe. It is very hard for her to see his negative qualities, and even if she does, she tends to ignore them. Tristan himself has a Venus-Neptune square in his natal chart, which means he is a very romantic, sensitive person, but has difficulty with honesty in his relationships. I wouldn’t be surprised if he has been in a relationship where he was lied/decieved/cheated on himself.

Khloe is not ‘stupid’ as most people believe, but she is delusional when it comes to her relationships. Unfortunately, this is not a quality she can just turn off, as it is in her natal chart. Given this, Khloe is doomed in her love life unless she makes some changes. She will continue to attract and enter relationships with deceptive individuals until she learns to LEAVE the men who exhibit deceptive, dishonest qualities. Given that she is forgiving (and quite honestly, very gullible), she needs to stop seeing her partners through rose-colored glasses. If she does not do this, she will continue to attract partners who cheat, lie and/or steal from her. She will continue to be with men who are deeply troubled or who she sees as ‘victim’ or ‘lost souls’ she needs to save.

I hope Khloe will soon find someone who truly loves her and exhibits the positive qualities of Neptune, such as compassion, sensitivity, and spiritual enlightenment. Her chart tells me she is an intensely spiritual individual, so she should focus on finding partners who share this quality with her. Good luck Khloe!

The Astrology of Beauty

Beauty is in the eye of the beholder. It really is. Poll a group of people of what they think of a certain celebrity and you will get different results.

In this article, I am going to talk about traditional aspects which are said to point to beauty. This is not to say that everyone with these aspects will be drop-dead gorgeous, as the entire chart must be considered.

Venus-Ascendant aspects 

This one is obvious. Venus is the sign of beauty, and the Ascendant & first house represent our physical appearance. Many people with this aspect are considered universally beautiful.

Think of Angelina Jolie (Venus conjunct Ascendant), Elizabeth Taylor (Venus trine Ascendant), Kim Kardashian (Venue square Ascendant), and Beyonce (Venus conjunct Ascendant).

Even if these people are not traditionally beautiful, there is a charm or air about them which is pleasing to others. They take care of themselves and care about the way they look. They are usually pleasant in nature, which makes them attractive to others.

Venus in the 1st house 

This works very similarly the Venus-Ascendant aspects I mentioned above. With Venus in the house of appearance, beauty is usually indicated.

People with Venus in the 1st house were born to be beautiful! This aspect also indicates someone with a beautiful, proportionate body. Women with this aspect are usually quite curvy and sexy!

Celebrities with Venus in the 1st house are Kourtney Kardashian, Audrey Hepburn, George Clooney, Zayn Malik, and Blake Lively.

Venus in aspect to the ruler of the 1st house

To determine the ruler of your first house, first determine which sign is on the cusp of that house (or your ‘rising sign’).

For example, Scarlett Johansson’s rising sign is Sagittarius, and its ruling planet is Jupiter. Scarlett’s Jupiter is conjunct her Venus in her 2nd house. Kim Kardashian’s ascendant is also in Sagittarius, and her Jupiter makes a wide conjunction to her natal Venus.

Venus in aspect to the ruler of the 1st house works very similarly to aspects to the ascendant. When this occurs, it endows the person with beauty, charm and grace.

Neptune in the 1st house

Neptune is the higher octave of Venus, so it makes sense that it would indicate beauty.

I find that Neptune is a different type of beauty, though – Neptunian women and men are glamorous, other-wordly. They stand out and look different and can captivate others very easily.

So many beautiful women have this aspect, including Kim Kardashian, Marilyn Monroe, Ariana Grande, as well as handsome men such as Cristiano Ronaldo and Tom Cruise.

This aspect can also point to those who are very fond of plastic surgery, make up, and photoshop (Kylie Jenner has this aspect, and I mentioned Kim Kardashian above). Thus is because Neptune blurs the line between fantasy and reality. This can lead these folks to present an altered view of themselves to the world.

By the way, this also works if Neptune is in aspect to the Ascendant or is in aspect to the 1st house ruler. I have found that Pisces rising individuals have similar characteristics.

Venus-Neptune aspects

Over and over again, I keep seeing this aspect in the charts of supermodels and other ‘beautiful people’.

This aspects give the native an ethereal type of beauty that gets noticed. They are dreamy-looking and usually have beautiful eyes. I personally love their sense of style.

Sun conjunct Ascendant or Leo Ascendant

While this is not a traditional beauty indicator, I’ve noticed that people with predominant Sun energy tend to be very attractive.

Leos are known for being ‘attention-getters’. Given that the Sun is the ruler of Leo, individuals with their Sun on their Ascendant often share similar qualities to Leo Ascendant individuals. I’ve noticed with my Leo Ascendant friends that they tend to always get tons of attention.

I went to Las Vegas a few years ago with a group of friends, and one of them had a Leo Ascendant (and Leo Sun). She is very pretty, don’t get me wrong, but I was amazed at the amount of men chasing after her. She didn’t even have to do much – men would just flock to her like bees on honey.

Leos just have that certain ‘something something’ that attract others to them. Leo represents confidence & sass, and they exude these qualities to the rest of the world.

How you perceive yourself informs how others perceive you, so it’s easy to understand why Leos are so irresistible!

Famous Leo Ascendant individuals include Jennifer Lopez, Beyonce, and Heidi Klum. Some celebs with Sun conjunct their Ascendant are Kourtney Kardashian and Scarlett Johansson.

 

ANYWAY, this is not an exhaustive list. I will continue to add to it as I observe more.

There are tons of women and men out there who do not have any of these aspects, but are beautiful! So, please don’t take this list as the be-all end-all for beauty 🙂

If you are interested in attracting a certain someone, it is way more important to look at how their planets aspect your planets. This will tell you if they are attracted to you!

For example, my Venus is in Capricorn, so I find people with their Ascendant in Capricorn, Virgo, or Taurus absolutely stunning, even more so than other Ascendant signs.

The Solar Eclipse of July 2, 2019

It’s that time of year again! We have a Solar Eclipse at 10 degrees Cancer on July 2nd, 2019.

As a rule of thumb, solar eclipses represent new beginnings. They generally mark the beginning of a new cycle and the ending of an old one. As an astrologer, I find that the effects of the solar eclipse can be felt a month before or after an eclipse, so keep that in mind!

Since this eclipse is in Cancer, it will affect those who have planets between 5-15 degrees of the Cardinal signs (Capricorn, Aries, Cancer, and Libra). Being in Cancer, the eclipse has the potential to bring family issues to the forefront, but in a positive way. This is a great time for family get-togethers, hosting events in your home, interior decorating, taking up a cooking class, or connecting with family members you may have lost touch with.

This Solar Eclipse does not make many close aspects to other transiting planets. It is in a loose sextile to Uranus, which can bring positive changes and surprises to one’s home life, or to the house in which the Solar Eclipse is found. It is in a large trine to Neptune, which brings an air of compassion and sensitivity to our environment.

Of course, the most important part of a Solar Eclipse is how it affects your own chart. To determine this, we must look at the house the Eclipse falls in, as well as the aspects it makes to your natal chart.

Solar Eclipse in the 1st house/Cancer Ascendant

In the 1st house, the Solar Eclipse brings new beginnings to areas surrounding self-worth, confidence, and physical appearance. This is the time for a brand new YOU. During this time, you may decide to get a more daring haircut, or experiment with different fashion trends, thanks to the sextile from exciting Uranus. Take this opportunity to meet new people and make connections.

Solar Eclipse in the 2nd house/Gemini Ascendant

The Second house represents financial matters. With this eclipse, you may find new ways of increasing your income via a new business opportunity. This is a fantastic time to budget, meet with your accountant, and pay off debts. This eclipse can also signal a change in job which provides you a higher salary. This transit can also increase ones desire for materials objects, and many of you may decide to make a large purchase at this time.

Solar Eclipse in the 3rd house/Taurus Ascendant

This Eclipse brings your relationship with your siblings, relatives and transportation into the spotlight. The 3rd house also represents communication and short-term travel, so perhaps something regarding a writing project or a trip will come to fruition. You may receive a surprising phone call or letter at this time.

Solar Eclipse in the 4th house/Aries Ascendant 

This is a powerful eclipse for you! Having a Solar Eclipse in Cancer in the 4th house  will put your focus on your home and family life. Many of you will move at this time. A major home renovation may occur, or surprises involving family members may surface. This is a great time for family get-togethers and connecting with relatives you have not seen in a long time.

Solar Eclipse in the 5th house/Pisces Ascendant 

This Eclipse will put your focus on fun, romance, children, creativity, and risk-taking. This Eclipse could involve surprises involving your romantic partners, or your children. You may solidify a relationship that has been on shaky ground, or a new relationship may enter your life. Couples may be blessed with news of a baby at this time. If single, this is a great time to go out and meet new people. Overall, this is a time of fun and joy for those who are lucky enough to experience this eclipse!

Solar Eclipse in the 6th house/Aquarius Ascendant 

This Eclipse will put your focus on your health, workplace, routines, and pets. Surprising announcements regarding your job may occur at this time, and health issues may pop up. You may decide to begin a new exercise regimen or diet at this time, or you may decide to adopt a new pet.

Solar Eclipse in the 7th house/Capricorn Ascendant 

This Eclipse will put your focus on your one-on-one relationships.  The Lunar Eclipse may indicate that you will solidity your commitment to someone special. Relationships are likely to go to the next level during this Eclipse. This period can also indicate you beginning a new business partnership. You will make new connections with others and you will not want to be alone at this time.

Solar Eclipse in the 8th house/Sagittarius Ascendant 

The focus of this Eclipse will be on sex, intimacy, shared resources, death, and re-birth. New sexual opportunities may pop up during this lunar Eclipse, which is great news for all! You may experienced increased intimacy with your partner. This is likely to be a highly emotional time for you, but it presents a great opportunity to get close to someone special. In Cancer, your need to emotionally bond with your partner is increased – superficial interactions just won’t cut it at this time!

Solar Eclipse in the 9th house/Scorpio Ascendant 

The focus of this eclipse will be on travel, higher education, and/or religion. This eclipse may bring you to foreign lands. A new opportunity to study, or the completion of a project may occur at this time. You may experience a desire to study philosophy or religion during this period.

Solar Eclipse in the 10th house/Libra Ascendant 

The focus of the Eclipse will be on your career, social status, and reputation. During this time, a promotion, career change, or public recognition for your efforts may occur.

Solar Eclipse in the 11th house/Virgo Ascendant 

The focus on this Eclipse will be on friendships, clubs or associations you belong to, or past lovers. You feel more social at this time and will want to spend more time with your good friends. New friends could come into your life at this time, or an ex-lover could come knocking on your door.

Solar Eclipse in the 12th house/Leo Ascendant 

The focus of the Eclipse will be on 12th house matters, which include secrets, addictions, spirituality, dreams, and self-undoing. A well-kept secret may burst forth during this eclipse (especially as they relate to relationships), so watch out! You may experience a greater-than-average need for peace, quiet, and solitude in order to get away from it all. Meditation and spiritual retreats are favored.

Neptune square Sun transit

I just finished up my Neptune square Sun transit (my Sun is at 11 degrees Sagittarius). This transit was very impactful and I wanted to share my experience with all of you.

For reference, my Sun is located in my 12th house in Sagittarius.

Here are a few key things that happened during my transit:

Problems with men in my life

  • The Sun is a masculine project and often represents the men in one’s life. As such, I wasn’t surprised that some very close men in my life disappointed me during this transit.
  • For the majority of this transit, I’d had a very positive relationship with all of these men (at least, in my mind). What I didn’t realize was that I was focussing mostly on their positive qualities while ignoring their negative qualities.
  • It wasn’t until the last pass of Neptune squaring my Sun that everything came crashing down. Incidentally, most of the issues came to surface when the planet Saturn transited over my natal Neptune, which is the astrological equivalent of a wake-up call. Basically, I found out that these men were not who I thought they were. To be quite honest, I blame myself for not seeing these men clearly, for who they truly were. Hindsight is 20/20, and I kick myself for not recognizing the problems sooner. That’s the thing with Neptune – you have rose-colored glasses on the entire transit, so the crash is very painful
  • My advice: if you are in a Neptune transit and some people or relationships seem ‘too good to be true’, they ARE. It is imperative to stay as realistic as possible during this time and acknowledge the other person’s shortcomings. No one is perfect, and the more you remember that, the easier it will be later on. This goes for all hard Neptune transits.

Health issues

  • Health problems are common during Neptune transits. Neptune “illnesses” are generally hard to pinpoint or diagnose, and are often psychosomatic.
  • Up until my Neptune transit, I was an avid gym-goer. When the Neptune square hit my Sun, my fatigue increased more and more to the point that I was unable to work out, or do much rather than the bare minimum
  • Neptune is currently square my Ascendant, and the fatigue has persisted. Hopefully this will end once this transit is over

Increased sensitivity

  • This transit was active at the same time as my Pluto square Moon transit, which led to some pretty explosive results.
  • Neptune tends to ‘sensitize’ anything it touches, so the direct contact to my moon meant I was more sensitive to the feelings and actions of others. Negative, high-strung people drained me, and I was easily hurt. Things tended to ‘get’ to me more during this transit, leading to a lot of tears and hurt feelings.

Overall, this was not a positive transit, and I’m very glad it’s over.

As usual, I’m glad it happened because it has taught me so many lessons, namely to keep my guard up and not be so trusting of others. It also forced me to slow down and be easier on my body.
