NEPTUNE SQUARE SATURN

We will focus on Transiting Neptune square natal Saturn.

Transiting Neptune has a great deal to do with illumination, spirituality, the psychic realm, and the mystical approach to life.  It can also have something to do with illusion, confusion, vagueness, and uncertainty.  Much depends on the angle in question. 

Saturn on the other hand has to do with concrete results, reality, seeing things as they are, obstacles to overcome, hard work and a disciplined effort.  It provides rewards for hard work and is known as the disciplinarian but also teaches valuable lessons, although often taught through stringent avenues.

The Square aspect (90° angle between two points in the astrology chart) is considered one of the most challenging of all aspects.  It has to do with working your way through adverse conditions, the pace being restricted or life moving slowly when you just want it to move ahead. It represents challenges that need to be rectified or acknowledged.  Although this is a difficult aspect, it is challenging enough that it should push us to act and find resolutions to the issues at hand.

Neptune Square Saturn

When you take Neptune in its most challenging conditions connected to Saturn, this suggests that there is often a need for clarification and a reality check.  Things may seem vague when prior to this time you might have been sure about your next step.  You might not be very sure where the next step will take you and worry and anxiety are often part of the scenario.  It might be wise to get some clarity or someone else’s opinion before plunging into action, but to be honest, in most cases, plunging into action is not part of the process.  You will wish to examine things carefully and may not wish to advance at all because of the fear of failure.

In some cases, your intuitive perception might lend a helping hand and possibly your intuition may be way off. Once again, it is best to ask a reliable person what their opinion might be.  Worries and concern about the unknown are part of the process most certainly, and it might be best to wait until the energies have passed (which would be when Neptune is 2° past being direct).

The house in which Neptune is transiting, the house of natal Saturn and the house of natal Neptune, as well as the house cusp with Pisces as the ruler will help identify what areas of life are involved.  Also, it is wise to have a look at the aspects to natal Saturn as they will be activated as well by this placement. 

Don’t get cause up in what might be, because the imagination is often quite enhanced under this aspect. The imagination is likely not accurate under this aspect, also.  Just move ahead with caution and look for signs that might provide some assistance as you work your way forward.

NEPTUNE SQUARE NATAL NEPTUNE

Neptune Square Neptune

Transiting Neptune squaring its natal position is a generational aspect affecting many individuals.  This is due to its slow movement. Neptune stays about 14 years in each sign affecting all those individuals with their Natal Neptune in that particular sign of the Zodiac.  It can remain in some signs a little longer due to its retrograde cycle.  Neptune takes 164 years to make a full cycle around the Zodiac.

When it comes to the energies of Neptune, the areas affected by transiting Neptune squaring to its natal position will differ due to the placement of Transiting Neptune and Natal Neptune in their respective houses.  The houses involved will be the areas of life affected by the energies which can last as much as three years, but the intensity becomes more relevant as Transiting Neptune approaches the direct degree of Natal Neptune. This usually lasts about 12 to 18 months depending, again, on any retrograde movement.

Neptune in Square suggests that the energies are difficult to handle, and clarity is an important factor in determining which way to move forward or to adjust.  The square aspect is challenging enough, however, that under most conditions, it forces you into action. As a result, the desire is strong to find a solution.  Neptune can fog our imagination and causes us to see things unclearly.  In many cases, a close friend or family member can be of assistance to help us find clarity.  In some cases, you may want to seek professional advice to figure out how best to deal with the situation. 

Neptune can also bring visions, prophetic dreams, and insight, but you must be sure that what you are experiencing is real.  There can be mystical understanding after these reviews and enlightening experiences after some strife and confusion.  Confusion and dismay are often apparent during this contact, and although difficult to handle, the energies usually clear up about 2 degrees after the aspect has been direct. To give an example, let’s say Neptune is at 25° in the second house natally, and as Neptune transits this position, things usually become clearer at around 27°.

Much will depend on if Neptune goes retrograde inside these degrees to calculate how long these energies will be present.  The first impact when direct (so moving across the examples area at of 25°) will be the strongest and when Neptune moves into retrograde motion (if it does) the last time it moves in direct motion over the same degree will signify that these energies are coming to an end.

Using the same example, these issues would likely have to do with financial security or security as a whole.  Depending on where transiting Neptune is (which will be approximately 90° away from the natal position) you can also be affected by 12th house matters or 5th house matters.  The 5th house affects security due to your children’s concerns, your romantic involvement, your creative expression, and theenjoyment of life.  In the 12th house, this could mean the need to bring things to the surface because they have not been dealt with or subconscious involvement that may need to be addressed.  It may also involve hospitals, places of confinement and the psychic realm.

This is a short and specific explanation for Neptune square Neptune but the whole chart needs to be deciphered to get the full picture.

SUN IN PISCES TRANSITS 2024

This post applies particularly to those with their Sun in Pisces and deals with important transits during 2024. However, it also applies to those with their Ascendant in Pisces. 

When speaking of the Sun in Pisces, these transits will affect the overall life path and goals, along with inner personal changes or new directions taking hold. 

Those with the Ascendant in Pisces will find that these transits affect them in ways that others notice, external changes, and sometimes reflected also within relationships, personal appearance, and the way they represent themselves to the world.

Pisces Forecast

Saturn and Neptune are making conjunctions to the Sun in Pisces and Ascendant of Pisces.  I should also mention that any planets in the sign of Pisces or any important angles (ASC, DC, MC and IC) with Pisces on the cusps will also be affected by the conjunction of Saturn and Neptune to these placements; however the influence will differ.  Each angle has its own description and each planet its own energies.

Saturn currently (February 2024) is around 8–9°of Pisces. As the sign Pisces is very receptive to the vibrations of life, there may be feelings of a slowdown or some obstacles that need to be rectified.  Those influenced by Saturn may feel that they have to work harder than normal to accomplish tasks and there may be (for those so inclined) a holdback and reality check on anything related to the mystical side of life.  These individuals won’t take things for granted and will weigh out all their options before they plunge into these realms of existence.  They may question the validity of what is in place and want proof on some level before they continue ahead on their journey into the spiritual side of life.

Saturn can delay progress but only because each “t” has to be crossed and every “I” must be dotted.  Saturn makes us have a good long look at our perspective and may even make us somewhat dismayed at times.  It can create worry and anxiety but over time, and with work, it builds solid foundations.

Neptune on the other hand is quite at home in its own sign of Pisces.  Currently Neptune is at 26° of Pisces and will remain in the later degrees of Pisces until the spring of 2025 when it moves into Aries.  Neptune is often tied to the awakening of spiritual forces and creative abilities.  It opens the door through meditations practice and other agents similar in nature.  For those that are so inclined with this influence, the path may open under this aspect but make sure what you see is in fact reliable and not a vague identification of something that you might imagine to be true.

For those leaning towards music and the arts, these doors can open as well, especially if the twelfth and/or fifth houses are part of the story. 

Neptune is mystical, magical, and inspirational and can be the orchestrator of great strides in these areas. 

Giving without measure is part of the process and feeling your way through at this time rather than thinking things out would be suggested.

Happy solar return to our Piscean followers!
