Neptune's 5 Month Retrograde ℞ through Pisces ♓︎
Neptune transiting Pisces: February 2012-March 2025
Neptune Retrograde will be retrograde between June 25-December 1, 2021 moving from 23° - 20° Pisces.
Neptune is the planet of transcendence, blurred lines, vibration, illusions/delusions, escape, spirituality, deception, oneness, imagination, the unconscious & self undoing. Where ever Neptune resides in our charts forms a deep connection & spiritual receptivity within that area. It reveals the areas of our life we tend to idealize, perceptually alter &/or gloss over all together (& the ways we go about doing so). It also shows the ways & what we may sacrifice of ourselves in this life. You can find Neptune responsible for all of the subtle generational shifts we experience collectively. Where ever Neptune is you may be needing to either become more in-tune and open in that area or learning & practicing discernment with your gifts/self.
Neptune entered it’s home sign Pisces back in 2012 - throughout this transit we have felt & seen things like the spirituality and empath wave, the gravitation from western medicine to alternative and natural approaches, gender fluidity, the dissolving of gender roles & expansion of genders in general. The creation of virtual reality games and experiences, museums of illusion & escape rooms. The spike & popularization in meditation/spiritual practices & services, sound healing, tarot, celebrity psychics etc. Mental health issues (especially mood disorders), suicide rates & mass shootings have increased wildly especially amongst young adults. Music is now being used as a manipulation tool for deeper hidden agendas, substance abuse is glamorized, body dysmorphia has increased tremendously, things like CBD, MDMA & Ketamine assisted therapies have become mainstream, Prison & Health reform become major topics of discussion and so on & so forth. Lots of shifts that have subtly made their way to the forefront of our society.
Dual bodied Pisces (mutable 🜄 water) is the vibrational, soul connection we all have to everything, it’s the losing of oneself to find oneself, the eye of the storm and the realization that we are one and co-creators of this paradigm. When Neptune moves through here we get a double dose, feeling a deep vibrational intensity of the wild waters within and all around us. The messy, rushing waters are here to cleanse us, connect us & ultimately bring us to our wholeness just like the many rivers & streams flowing to the ocean. If the past 9 years have felt like a rollercoaster for you, you probably have some Neptune &/or Pisces significance in your chart.
As Neptune retrogrades our vision becomes a bit clearer allowing us to see our truth vs our illusions/delusions, things typically unseen move into our conscious awareness for acknowledgement &/or working through. We will be re-evaluating the various realities we’ve created and move through, our tendencies of escapism and reconnecting with our fullness & duality. When we accept and embrace all facets of ourselves and the world around us we learn unconditional, unwavering love & we can move through the world with a deeper sense and awareness of who we are, how we contribute, and our soul purpose here.
Neptune is a slower, generational planet spending about 14 years in each sign, so for personal analysis it must be looked at in its relationship to your personal/inner planets & the house its moving through.
