Holding Onto the Dream

The Jupiter-Neptune conjunction – Retrograde Style

Awhile back I posted about the Jupiter-Neptune conjunction this year and the potential it has to help all of us dream bigger and better in a certain area of our life than we ever have before. Jupiter is the planet of expansion and abundance and Neptune is the planet of faith and inspiration.

Together these two planets are acting in a particularly misty eyed and spellbound way that can have you believing in your ability to wave your magic wand and create something spectacular OR have you rudely awakened from a reverie in which you have been pathetically deluding yourself.

On July 10, 2009 Jupiter and Neptune will once again be in exact mathematical conjunction however this time both planets are moving retrograde. This suggests that we’re all now in the process of internalizing the Jupiter-Neptune promise in our lives. Are you giving up on your dreams? Or will you pursue them with more glossy idealism than ever before?

I can’t tell which of these scenarios it is for you my spirited women friends unless I’m looking at your unique birth chart but I sure can tell you what I’ve seen happening around my world lately.

Astrologers seem to be dropping like flies all around me. I don’t mean physical death, I’m talking career death. A handful of fine astrologers who I’ve come to know and admire realized under this Jupiter-Neptune conjunction that their magic wands are out of pixie dust and they need to wake up and smell the reality that a career as an astrologer isn’t paying the bills.

It makes me sad. Especially because I refuse to give into the madness of believing for one second that I can’t be successful doing what I absolutely love.

Jupiter and Neptune, I have something to say to you:

I’m an astrologer – hear me roar!

I'm reading this in July 10 and so I am going to believe that Jupiter and Neptune will help me to move towards my dream-- why not, I have nothing to lose! Thanks for the information.
