Comfortable with Uncertainty 11/06/06 - 11/12/06 With the Saturn/Neptune opposition still in play, (the exact opposition occurred August 31), planets making contact with Neptune will also aspect Saturn. This week Mercury, Venus and the Sun connect with this opposition. Mercury squares Neptune twice this month: the first time on November 8 while retrograde, and the second later in the month when direct. With this aspect, your mind is just not going to be the sharpest tool in the shed, but neither is anybody else's! As lovely Venus squares spiritual Neptune on November 6 and squares practical Saturn on November 12, your important relationships come under review. We round out the week with self assessment as your keyword when the Sun squares Neptune on November 9.
November 6: Venus squares Neptune; November 12: Venus squares Saturn Venus, the planet of love, transiting through passionate Scorpio gets a reality check from Saturn and a dose of romance from Neptune. In your important relationships, you are likely to see-saw between practical considerations and your idealism. The challenge here is to retain you faith in the power of love while also taking into account the human mortal messiness of relationships. That's not too tall an order is it? You'll do fine if you remember that romantic love is enhanced by the healthy boundaries of Saturn.
November 8: Mercury squares Neptune When Mercury entered the water sign Scorpio on October 2 your thoughts became colored by feelings, and the intensity level of your conversations ratcheted up. When retrograde Mercury backs into a square with Neptune this week, communication can get a little foggy making this a poor time to negotiate or to clear up misunderstandings. There is a fair amount of uncertainty in this aspect. You may not be told relevant information or you may withhold important facts. Make sure you take your time to think things through and importantly listen to others and read between the lines.
November 9: Sun squares Neptune When the Sun squares Neptune you may feel like you just drove into a fog bank. Figuring out who you are and where you're going without familiar landmarks is the challenge now. So, this week do yourself a favor and don't try to figure out the future. Find a quiet place, whether it's in your bedroom or under a Bodi tree. Escape from the world and commune with nature, write your innermost thoughts in a journal or listen to music. Logic is not helpful now. Instead, be imaginative, be a visionary.
