Mercury Facing Off with Neptune

Mercury is now at home in Gemini. This enhances rational thinking and learning. However, today it starts to square off with Neptune. Where Mercury is rational, Neptune is fuzzy and Quixotic. How do they get along? Not usually well. The combination can raise issues of prevarication- whether we lie to others or lie to ourselves- we have to face those issues.

It is a great time to determine how truthful you are to yourself…and how honest those closest to you are to you. In short – where do your secrets lie?

Uranus Shaking Up Taurus.

The Sun and Mercury are in Taurus for a short time. However, I want to talk about big, slow and “far-out” in so many ways Uranus being there. While Taurus screams security and safety – Uranus wants to send electrical bolts of change to everything it sees. How do the two combine?

At its worse, this combination will shake to the core, “little things” like financial markets, 401 ks, home prices – all of those areas controlled by Taurus.

However, it can also juice up our creative skills – and invite those home-projects such as cleaning clutter and changing old, faded wall paint. It is like spring cleaning on steroids time.

So before the stocks go crazier – go buy some paint and some cleaning fluid and use the energy of Taurus to the most

Are you looking for some inspiration?

Then perhaps you should wait until Wednesday to get creative, especially if your Moon is in a water sign. On Wednesday the Moon will move in it’s ruler, watery Cancer. It will also make a flowing aspect to the Mercury-Uranus conjunction that will hang around for a few more weeks.

Water signs are good conduits for inspiration and ideas. Mercury, the communicator, gets an extra jolt of electricity or spark from Uranus. All together they will help you get the mental sparks flying.
