The moon and Neptune are on the move today. This morning, after months of being stationed retrograde, Neptune finally moves direct. Later, the moon moves into Scorpio. Read on to see how these transits are awakening our wisdom, our creativity, and our adventurous side.
Neptune Stations Direct at 5:31 AM
After almost half a year of moving retrograde, Neptune, in idealistic Pisces, stations direct. These past five months have been a reflective time for us. Neptune governs our dreams, spirituality, and imagination. During a Neptunian retrograde we awaken from our fantasies and see our reality for what it really is. But now that it is stationed direct, we see our reality for what it can be.
Our eyes have been open to the severe state of our world and our inner self. We must take all that we have learned and apply it to our lives so that we may create the world that we want. This retrograde made us confront our traumas head-on. Now we must learn how we can heal from them.
This is also a time of artistic expression. You can channel your wisdom and creativity through art, performance, and the written word.
The Moon Moves into Scorpio at 6:50 AM
A little over an hour later, the moon moves into passionate Scorpio. This moon is increasing our sensuality and spontaneity. However, it is also enhancing our vindictiveness and aggressiveness. Our playfulness can quickly give way to conflict.
The lunar Scorpio is also inspiring our adventurous side. We have a strong desire to visit new places and have new experiences. This desire is amplified by our adaptability.
The Moon Is Square Saturn at 9:40 PM
In the evening, the moon in Scorpio forms a square with Saturn in emotionally restrained Aquarius. Under this square, we feel incredibly restricted. Scorpio’s vindictive energy from earlier has not left us. We may feel embittered and unsatisfied with our current situation. Aquarius is causing us to close ourselves off from others. Any openness or honesty we felt earlier are dwindling. We feel secretive and find it difficult to be truthful with our loved ones. At this time, we may be filled with an intense sense of melancholy.
At times like this, it can be easy to isolate yourself from everyone. A little alone time and mental rest may be beneficial. But it may also be helpful to reach out and talk to someone when you feel ready.
