The outer planets are far from the Earth plus the central focus of the Sun, around which the whole solar system revolves. This makes their orbits rather lengthy and in the case of Neptune for example, to see this planet visit six constellations in your lifetime is a great innings. That is what makes Neptune’s arrival in Pisces so important presently, since it sets a background theme that lasts for the next fourteen years. You’ll notice an increasing interest in your spiritual development as a means of understanding whatever makes you tick. You discover the answers you’re after looking inwards, more than you have in the past…

Pisces, a water sign harmonises with your earthy nature, so the entry of Neptune into the next constellation but one before yours, is cause for celebration as it defines the coming decade and beyond. This marks an improvement over what has gone before, where perhaps you have viewed certain situations in too idealistic a light, only to see your hopes dashed over the long term. Don’t doubt yourself for aiming high, it was worth the effort and taught you loads, though some did not survive to tell the tale. Maybe you’ve learned life is easier in company, instead of shouldering each burden entirely by yourself?

may 21 - june 20
Neptune highlights the apex of your horoscope. It is only sensible to you ask yourself a few questions, about what you are doing exactly and the reasoning behind all kinds of mundane activities, most people do not worry over. This review and the central purpose behind it makes you nervous somehow, because your perspective has a spiritual slant, and it’s hard putting your concerns into any logical order or processing the answers rationally, either. Slowly, you are getting your first taste of a more ethereal and intuitive world view, that enhances your creativity and insight, but that often confuses you along the way.

june 21 - july 22
Life is engrossing when you’re in the thick of it, but sometimes not in a beneficial or helpful fashion. What is needed is an objective perspective, but this can be tough to maintain or acquire in the first instance, when your heartstrings are under tension and you’re emotionally involved one way or the other. It’s hard knowing what is correct, when you’re right taking a stance on a particular issue and when you’re better keeping quiet or putting others first. This is where a belief system will help guide you, whether a religion or political theory, alternatively some more homespun philosophy to fall back on when times get tough…

july 23 - august 22
What is success and how will you know when it arrives? Will you wake up one day suddenly satisfied, believing you’re the most popular individual within a continental radius, that you are irresistibly attractive to those objects of interest you have on your radar and that your talents make Einstein and Mozart, look like Dumb and Dumber in comparison? Probably not, because the feedback you are getting makes the biggest difference to your state of mind, especially the perspective of others on your endeavours. Naturally you feel you’re doing a great job, so why are you depending on the reactions of everyone else?

august 23 - september 22
Neptune’s gradual progress divides life into different chapters, that looking back you will affirm as each having a distinctly separate theme. Every change of sign lasts fourteen years and if you’re old enough, you recognise the phase that began in 1998 as one during which, you’ve struggled to make your working life reflect your ideals better, both in terms of the job you’re doing and what motivates you to continue. Certain of your choices were not so practical in retrospect, because your angle on whatever lay ahead was less than precise. There is no point in pursuing a lost cause, unless sacrifice boosts your self-image?

september 23 - october 22
Relying on those around you for harmony, places you in a vulnerable position. It’s great when everything is going smoothly, but what about those occasions where there is discord and upheaval, sometimes even in the most harmonious associations? Then your equilibrium gets disturbed, you feel unsettled and cast adrift, without the weight to anchor you and maintain the balance crucial for your comfort. Figuratively speaking, you are wisest mending your roof in the sunshine, even when there seems no pressing need. Investigate the means to maintain an inner poise, should the rain ever threaten your relationships again.

october 23 - november 21
Certain things people do, don’t make much sense. You’re familiar with unconscious impulses you find impossible to understand, but reckon easy enough to accept in practice. These feelings don’t have to be complicated, because across the range of human behaviour there are several joyous outlets established. Laughter for instance doesn’t stack up logically, why should anybody make strange noises in their throat, because they are amused? Dancing is equally pointless and what about art, yet the world has never been without it. There is more to life than rigid self-control. Expressing yourself leads to a happier existence…

november 22 - december 21
Renowned for your globetrotting exploits, you are becoming aware that a base of your own isn’t a bad idea. You can find the common ground and fit in almost anywhere, meaning there are issues to deal with when you stay in one place, that you don’t encounter moving around. You are a natural gypsy but have another side, that looks admiringly at folk who stay settled. Perhaps you have never found your perfect location or thought you did only to discover, it wasn’t so idyllic as you imagined. When you’ve been hurt before you tend to notice every imperfection, but face these one at a time, before you disappear again…

december 22 - january 19
There is a certainty in material issues. You have money or there is none, you have a job or you don’t work, you own property or rent, you know where your next meal is coming from or haven’t any clue. It is when you consider moral issues, determining the rights and wrongs of a given situation, that life gets confusing. A particular course of action may prove admirable under one set of circumstances and deeply inappropriate at other times. A number of beliefs you thought unquestionable have already been shaken to their core. This is the start of a process that ultimately, opens your mind up to a wealth of possibilities.

january 20 - february 18
You couldn’t emerge from fourteen years with Neptune in your sign, the same person as you were when this influence began. Maybe you’re too young to remember anything else, so become convinced the nagging sense of dissatisfaction and lassitude that plagues you still, is simply what it means being you. That isn’t so, but when a passing influence lasts this long, it is hard to recall anything different. Neptune departs your constellation early this month and won’t be returning during your lifetime. You’re not sure what it has left you with moving forwards, but a creative approach will uncover those benefits on offer…

february 19 - march 19
Neptune in Roman mythology was the god of water and the sea. Nowadays it is the planet connected with your constellation, so its entry into your sign this month is no small event, since it does not depart finally for fourteen years. You enjoyed a taste of this subtle yet powerful influence last year, but beforehand there has been nothing for comparison since long before you were born. Because it moves so slowly, it may take some time for you to realise the effect Neptune has on you. Gradually, you notice your insight and intuition heightened, making it imperative to think along positive lines and banish negative thoughts.
