Planet Neptune has an affinity with the feminine yin energy. When Neptune goes retrograde, delusions and illusions may occur more often than usual. Logical thinking may be particularly difficult, and judgment often does not seem as clear cut.
Neptune is one of the outer planets and the second transpersonal planet. It relates to both individuals and large collectives of people, for example, countries. It often operates in the background; however, it is very potent.
Stay Present with Everyday Reality
The retrograde of Neptune may also bring up issues from past lives and other universal dimensions. You may have always known that you are ‘different’ from others, and this time proves it! Lead a balanced life by practising being grounded in this physical reality rather than letting your mind go off too much into other dimensions. Try to stay present with everyday reality rather than using escapism tactics such as alcohol, drugs, or other addictions. You could be feeling somewhat ‘foggy’ or experience a feeling of boundaries dissolving between you and others. You might not be sure of where you begin and where you end, especially in relationships. Stick to your own knitting and allow others the same opportunity.
Release Hurts from the Past
During Neptune Retrograde, you may have spiritual wounds surface from the past that will need to be understood and healed. Painful feelings about past situations or past incarnations could come flooding back into your mind now, affecting your self-esteem and confidence. You may be feeling like a victim in some way. If so – it’s time now to deal with it. It’s all going to be ok; cry if you need to. Write your feelings down into a journal and do a personal ritual to release the past and forgive yourself and others who hurt you. You’ll learn to deal with your spirituality differently, to when Neptune is direct.
More Focus on Self Care
You may lack energy and motivation, feel sorry for yourself, or feel just plain ‘flat as a tack’. Watch your health and look after your general wellbeing, as Neptune is associated with viruses and ill health. Take plenty of long warm baths, have massages, and spend time in silent contemplation. It’s a time for being rather than doing. Even though doubt and uncertainty may enter your mind, don’t give up on what you feel is truly right for you.
It’s also a great time for spiritual self-development. Check out some self-help books, astrology, yoga, or learn astrology. Your psychic abilities could become stronger during this time. Especially the ‘clairs’ such as clairvoyance (clear sight), clairaudience (clear hearing), and clairsentience (clear feeling). Rely on your intuition, especially if it’s hard to think clearly now.
All planetary retrogrades give us the opportunity to review, reflect and reassess different areas of our lives. You can do this very effectively under a retrograding Neptune!
