Ghosts Of Neptune
Daily Horoscopes for the weekend are up – Major Neptunian Weirding in the shadow of the Eclipse alerts for each sign except (lol) Saggo. They get to just phone it in. “Phone it in” – in case you don’t know – is like an old journalist joke for when someone does a story from the comfort of the hotel bar, watching CNN, no interviews, just phoning it in.
Ghosts are huge at the mo – last night i dreamed of someone who died years ago, my astrology mentor, an amazing man – and in this dream i was walking through my usual bit of the neighborhood when suddenly there was a whole new street there. Going down it, i saw he was alive and still had his old art gallery, only he’d renovated it…we had this incredible conversation about astrology and i kept saying stuff like “wow! it’s so cool that you’re alive after all, why didn’t you tell me?” You know those dreams? And you wake up all poignant & wondering if you were in another dimension. I think it’s the Neptune dimension.

love the art.
i love the art. the blue fin and the grays. it reminds me of transferring from aries men to cancer. #astrology101
Love it… ” you start on wednesday and aim to finish by 2016
hmmmm, well, I smashed my beloved mob phone yesterday, O M G, then the home phones have decided to get stiiiiiicky buttons..losing half the calls. MERC RETRO anyone ? else ?
Love those colours and the image. Thats me down the south coast in a few weeks.
The last ghost I saw was my grandfather’s the day he was buried. I was 10,in bed and looking through my door to the adults talking in the lounge room. He came up through my floor and stood there at the door, looking and listening to the adults conversation. He just stood there for a while but I didn’t converse with him. At the time, it didn’t phase me at all. If it happened now ? not in a dream ? not sure how I’d go.
Yes I’ve been having phone dramas too. And my sister dropped hers in a cup of tea (she’s an Aries).
I lost my cat yesterday, it’s strange that this post is about ghosts. I wailed after she’d been gone 4 hours as I’m heading to Melbourne from Byron today and didn’t want to go with her lost. I prayed to my dad (who’s not alive anymore) and as soon as i finished she came back, all scared and traumatised – she’d been chased by a dog.
Maybe they can help us in the other dimension a bit more…
x
Wailing ? Poor baby, no wonder your Dad came to help. I was taught that people who pass, can stay for 12 months to help out, then they are gone. Gives them and the living a bit of a transition period.
The only exception is wailing which can bring them back years later x
Oh thanks, that gave me a smile. Oh the humility of losing one’s only treasure.
I heard on the radio once that when you’ve lost very close family you should talk to them especially when you’re upset about stuff, and i do it with my mum but i just randomly decided to do it with dad (he’s been gone 28 years now) and maybe he was keen to let me know he’s just as close as mum.
Oh, pets. How much they mean to us!! I can bear the pain of no parents if i still have my cat!
I forgot to say, on another ghost note, I keep smelling my mum everywhere. It’s so weird – the thing you just can never replicate when someone is gone is their smell.
Yet in the last week – mum. This softness and safety I’ve missed for so long.
Wow…
So touching davey luv. Gem daughter recently said she knows Nana has been guiding her.
That seems to be the order in my world. I spent a lot of time with my grandparents, quality time you could say. Probably much more than with my parents.
One of the common foundations of all human religion is veneration of the ancestors. Maybe its because we can look in hindsight at a still memory and see it properly, through rose coloured glasses. I still have my parents around and my wife’s parents and its sometimes damned hard to venerate them when the’re alive.
haha.,,Yeah xx Leo Nana exposed her to things I hadn’t…Like classical music…Maybe why she took piano for nine years..
Then again, I exposed her to Seth,,Both my kids thought I was nuts then, they don’t think that so much now.
Esp Gem, she understands that alcoholism for example is genetic and needs to be healed and cleared so the next generation doesn’t carry it forward.
So great to have and get that understanding from my child…It;s huge.
Told her that on the path to enlightenment, the hardest part is left for the last.
Honestly don’t know what I would have done without my genius Kataka teacher as his teachings always come in handy when I need them.
Of course I don’t know I need them till I need them…
Oh the trickery of spirit
I dreamt about my gorgeous grandma about 2 weeks ago – she passed 10 years ago – she was such a wonderful lady. The dream was so vivid and she was earnestly trying to tell me something I knew I needed to know – and then my grandpa was there too and I hugged them both so hard – I could feel it and I started crying I was so happy to see them – then I woke up with tears running down my face. And tried so hard to remember what she was telling me but I couldn’t…I think it must be in my brain subliminally though because I feel a shift…
My grandpa died 3 months before her, but it’s my grandma I still think of almost every day
Oh darling, hugs is all I can say…x
You will see them agian..love is eternal…
ETERNALLLLLLLLL
dammit…xo
Now your reply almost made me cry! Thank you. Hugs to you too x
I see the hummingbirds almost daily on my walks here in the desert. I consider them a sign of hope and joy. x
Been feeling merc retro even in its shadow before it hit … broke a key off of my laptop, microwave died, handset for my phone (landline) won’t work, kettle has now given up, and today I broke a tooth … eating bread!
But no ghosts that I’m aware of … maybe a tad too hazardous around here at the moment.
Don’t speak too soon. I thought the same. Brillliant – ghostproofed.
But yesterday i was unwell for a bit and when i was napping i suddenly realised how they got in.
When i’m not well and start dropping to sleep i realised that i see faces of very ordinary people you probably would not look twice at except that they are ugly because you can see their heart in their face – these people are angry and selfish and demanding attention. (I used to wonder why i would see ordinary looking people with no connection to me – hello i’m a Piscean if that sounds snobbish it is)
The thing is, sometimes they are in the background of what else i’m seeing like my normal dream vision, then they creep closer around the sides, until they are in headshot closeup, mouths moving and stretching like they are talking talking urgently and very quickly – only there’s no sound. That’s when i realise they have got my attention by creeping – i notice the peripherals, i observe people from the sidelines, sideways. When a person looks at me front on i never look back. Without choice i look through them. So front on, i heave my energies and break the spell ( i do not want to drag these people into my sleep, right?) But yesterday as i di that i saw a woman in black and white walk past my back door…which is above the ground…but i was in bed with my eyes closed. Wtf.
I’m a sag and it’s been ok for me lately (last couple of days)I must say… still very unusual, but not in a bad way. I did have an interesting dream experience last night. I kept dreaming about one of my students and was concerned about finding meaningful work for him. When I woke up I thought, he’s not even coming in today!! WTF!! Why all the worry.
He met me in the carpark this morning cause his alternative program had been closed cause some of the kids from his other school had been in that horrible accident. He wanted to hang out with us today. No problems!
Later I remembered the dream and though… woah!
I love this picture. This morning I dreamed a lady in the lane next to me offered to demonstrate how to bowl with skulls, squids and octopuses.
What a strange dream! What do you think it meant? It sounds awkward to bowl a squid.
I feel like the mermaid here is being offered all these charming tokens by this well-meaning octopus and she just ungraciously says, “meh!’ and lies back down.
Sort of the kristen stewart of mermaids..
I’m a writer, so I interpreted the dream to be about using the head/mind in my work. The skull, the (bowl)ing of the head, octopus & squid: ink, changing shape, using resources from the deep unconscious, something strange, alien-like, frightening . . . in the dream it did seem rather awkward to bowl with squids and octopuses, but the woman assured me it was possible and her preference.
In 2009 I dreamed that I had a job interview with a mermaid. She was mean. She called me a man, said I had no grace and was vulgar. I didn’t get the job.
I’m a Sag too but with a very strong Scorp and Pluto chart so I don’t really feel like I’m getting much of a reprieve here.
And the dreams…good grief the dreams!
Me too. Phoning it in?? Good grief, Charlie Brown, if only. I will certainly be phoning it in re any social life this weekend. For the last few weeks, I’ve been on a gruelling research schedule across 4 states and different parts of 8 cities/regional towns, getting up at 5 to get on planes, juggling driving in strange rented cars around cities/towns I’ve never driven in (let alone zipped across several times in a day to get to focus group appointments at opposite ends of town), juggling my own phone, plus an 1800 number linked to another mobile, plus work emails, plus getting back to hotel rooms and then keeping on working, and then getting home, barely having time to do the washing, while finalising details of the next state I am going to, before I am off again.
So I get back on Wednesday night (round 10.30) this week and get a text from my boss – at 11.30pm at night – telling me that someone had complained that I was 2 minutes late to an appointment in the back of Bourke or somewhere. So I spent yesterday trying to hose down an inner rage, given that I have yet to be reimbursed for literally weeks of as yet unpaid hours, not to mention some $750 worth of travel expenses that they wouldn’t advance me (all very legit – hardly living high on the hog….).
Totally exhausted. As for the big reset – scorp eclipse is first house for me, just past my 16 degree scorp ascendant – I can feel a major confrontation with the powers that be coming on, and I know already, having nearly resigned/nearly made a formal bullying complaint before all the travel started, that it will be ugly.
Yet, if I resign, in protest at weeks of unpaid work that I never signed up for but was necessary to keep the damn project (grossly underfunded, and which I did not devise) on track, I will be homeless in the not too distant future. If I hadn’t done the work, I would have nothing to show on my cv for the investment of time I already put in. More importantly, because I give a fuq about the subject matter, I feel a responsiblity to those battlers who’ve spilled their guts about their lives on very low incomes to me, to get the data I’ve collected out there. That’s the new economy and how it affects anyone with a conscience for you. Damned if you don’t, screwed if you do.
I”m with you Caitlin – the image of we saggo’s as always just winging it, phoning it in from a bar,and happy to run away from responsibility does not apply to those of us with mucho Scorp and Virgo, methinks.
And like you and Joh, omg, the dreams. Nightmares, to be precise. The fact that I have been pulled aside and scanned for explosive residue at every airport (thanks to the vast amount of odd techy equip I’ve had to lug around) and keep on worrying about sleeping (exhausted) through alarms hasn’t helped. I keep getting a re-run of my old ballet school nightmare, where I miss my cue on a major stage; then again I’ve had one where I packed a tiny bit of stress-relief hooch by mistake (not that I ever would) and find myself in jail.
LOL, I have Circe on the 0 degrees Neptune point where it is stationing at the mo. If I hadn’t been so so busy, I’d have been weaving spells to turn my boss into some easily squashable slug over the past week or so.
Actually, now that the four weeks of travel madness is over, there’s an idea for the weekend….and that makes me feel SOOOOOO much better. Can a squashed slug pay you, though???
heee heee fi…. I love your fiery words…. particularly “trying to hose down an inner rage”…. you know I have scorpio ascendant too though at 7degrees and I have a similar situation re feeling like a confrontation is brewing, and there have been a few micro confronts on the lead up… It’s intense and it does bring up issues of homelessness, debt and how to wipe self off the floor and get back up again if one was to read the riot act to place of work and walk on out!!!
You know it is now evidenced to me that bullying is rewarded among adults, particularly in work places and more so in politics… and we expect children not to do it!!!!! they are just learning from the adults..
Anyway its crap…. I also would be happy doing some witchy spells and find myself casting call outs to the universe to make someones karma hurry up…. but i know this does not work but its a desperate measure… why do bullies succeed!!!!
Im making a plan tomorrow of how to get through this time, its so fucking intense, Ive cried most of the day….
thanks pg and big hug to you…fuqing intense is definitely the expression i’d use too x
Fi, time seems ripe for an exit plan. What assets can you grab on your way following a message of “am sorry to end our relationship with an unhappy note”? Do you have a contract you can wave at them? Good intentions must be reciprocal…in your bank account. And how long do you think you can survive? A ritual on Eclipse Day perhaps?
thanks qdrpled x – posts were coming so thick and fast when I tried to reply yesterday that mine got stalled, I think.
Getting ready to confront. Her, her boss (head of dept, to whom I have alread foreshadowed problem) and then union if necessary. But resigning not an option right now. Have a meeting with her (boss) in the arvo prior to eclipse.
My lord Fi, that’s mental, can I just wish you luck? And a nice virtual cup of hot cocoa.
hey andy, thanks luv. long time no post, I know, but really appreciate the support x
Texting you at 11:30 ? about a meeting you were late for ! This is a child your dealing with Fi. I’m assuming it’s a guy ? Who made it as your boss ? how ? Government, yes. The only place a child can remain one and end up head of the dept. Actually, that works for most free enterprise too lets face it, we all pander to fools for money.
Love the hooch dream. It reminded me of living in SE Qld. The monday papers always had a story about the people caught carrying that friday night flying into Surfers Paradise for the weekend from Sydney. Bringing a little bit of smoke or whatever for there ‘holiday’. They used to put them in jail I think ? court Monday morning, large fine..etc..fly home Monday night. of course aside from friday night, they never tested or had staff there, so you could have lugged a sack of fairy dust over your shoulder and had no problems. x
Ah dave, god love you – but she’s a woman, and it ain’t government!!
Had to laugh – the nightmare was actually prompted by a grandma who I interviewed in SE queensland last week who told me she’d been saliva tested for drugs at an airport….that was after I’d joked to her about how the weird looking mikes I was using to record our discussion (look like ufo’s) had attracted airport security attention. Happily, I got home ok from Brisbane, having been tested again for explosives residue, by the rather apologetic security staff, with two burly cops looking on.
It is of course the kind of thing that makes one (one Saggo, anyway) pull out one’s small stash the minute one gets home, and roll a spliff, just for the hell of it.
Huh 3 nights ago had vivid out-of-the-blue long and healing dream about my first mentor/lover from 20 years ago, total transformation of the real scenario (where he was 10 yrs older, massively artistically supportive but emotionally fucked up and ultimately inaccessible).
In dream we were same age, teenagers hanging out in a parental home, so friendly and all the angst of the original situation had evaporated — as if we had instead met as same people but without the age gap, and pre-psychological/emotional damage.
Haven’t thought of him consciously in months. The dream was so real and long it “gave” me the things I wished for/expected from him at 18 when we met.
So bang-on MM: a massive ghost, as really this experience has haunted me and all my relationships since.
Natal Sagg moon conjunct neptune btw, mercury transiting them today
& Neptune at 0 pisces is stationed right at end of my 8th house.
Looking forward to it transiting my 9th … 8th has been a nebulous doozy
My Mum was in my dream on Wednesday night, I spent the whole Thursday just going ‘wow’. She was showing me something about a connection and birth.It felt more than I can really describe, more like an out of this world connection.
My Mum and I have Saturn at exactly the same degree in Virgo…
xx
Amazeballs. Ye verily.
That’s beautiful Bgem, blessings. And saturn hey? That’s deep, xx.
Perhaps you should google the Sabian symbol for that degree of Virgo? I find the Sabian symbols helpful when I notice degree patterns.
**Hugs Gemmy** x
Your beautiful Barista x Same degree Saturn? So it was 28 years from when she was born to when you were ?
She was 29 davidl, she was Virgo and her Sun is conjunct my Jupiter. You guys are very kind, thank you xo
In life it doesn’t pay to have too many expectations but I’m really looking forward to Neptune ‘moving on’. I tend to think Jupiter too is getting pretty jacked off biding his time in Gemini–minor injuries to my hands in the work of 6th house Jupiter efforts to expand, open the window, eat, earn dollars etc.
Forgot to add . . that’s a great dream. Alive and well all this time. We have a lot to unlearn about ‘death’.
wow mystic did u dream that on neptune oil???
neptune on my venus……
neptune is activating my 11th house
and i need to sort
my boundaries with friends
its all my fault. i lost my phone two weeks ago, money crises
where i live etc is all too much
but my spirit is strong…..
a friend who is of to india drop by to see me
and i not slept much for two nites due to
drunk neighbours talking really loud….etc
its that karma in the 4th house
she wanted a reading
i said no as i not slept
but did it anyway
$20…its not mixing right friendship with readings
neptune again in scorp others people money
it started out ok but i went on too long….
dark moon blues
feels like these words by p j harvey
I walk on concrete
I walk on sand
But I can’t find
A safe place to stand
I’m scared baby
I wanna run
This world’s crazy
Gimme the gun
I met a man
He told me straight
“You gotta leave
It’s getting late”
Too many cops
Too many guns
All trying to do something
No-one else has done
and this too will pass 5 of pentacles…..
Big Exit
Neptune 0 degrees Pisces is smack bang in the middle of my 7th house -
the only thing I remember from last nights dream was being held and kissed with indescribable passion….
It’s Uber Neptunian at the moment, isn’t it, I’m relishing it because I have felt totally devoid of inspiration for at least 4 years, I miss my waking dream states, I can’t create or ideate without them, you don’t want to be in permanent fog, but permanent saturn salt mine territory is awful (I’m virgo so I don’t know why the saturn in libra phase was like a continuation of the virgo transit, my MC in Libra maybe?)
Just had a lovely shopping trip in hideous supermarket with my mind totally tuned to another station. Thank You Neptune.
Oh and I’ve just been listening to Kate Bush, thinking she is the ultimate Neptunian genius, and looked her up to find that Neptune aspects her Sun, Moon, Venus and Mars.
I have Chiron square Neptune, have had since around Aprill 2011, supposed to end around december 2012, this should be interesting.
I have actively manifested the retreat i need in a very mature (you would laugh if you have known me for years) and grounded way. Moving in 3 weeks to a pretty magick part of Oz, will be surrounded by all my artist/musician friends, but have managed a transfer from my “real job” but only 30 hours a week which allows me to finish my degree (that i started in 1992 he he) and concentrate on my Art and Musick, which is also interesting as the other transits going on are Jupiter sextile Venus and Jupiter sextile Mars…… I’m in interesting times………
omg, can I phone it in????? that would be awesome. Mystic needs to write me a note. Dear ______ please excuse Ms. from her regular locations as her sagg moon and venus/neptune will be phoning it in this week. I would love to phone my life in right now. what am I talking about? here I am in a giant cardigan and giant cup of tea in dooner and hairpins on a computer. only for another few minutes though. Christ I hate the day mission right now. I am seriously considering moving to India to a yoga fortress or whatever. Moon on auto kick hole in wall and escape. What is the point of having all this sagg in the 6th house? it just makes me the wanton escapist of the century.
Yah, I had that fantasy yesterday!
as for the dead, dreams no, visitors yes. seems all the ancestry stirring has left me with a few lurkers. Go towards the light and move the hell on. ps I love you.
neptune is directly opposite my mars, again, I seriously hate neptune squares and oppositions, ultimate snaffu. At least you know with Saturn yeah. Did you do your homework. no, smack. Neptune is just a strange fog that re arranges everything
i just called on my epic philosophy major critical thinking skills to tell off my mom…in the most compassionate way possible. i asked her about her opinions leading to her affirmation statements she believed or did not believe in and then tied them into other statements, making her realize that many of her opinions were simply giving words to her fears. related it to her childhood. told her that maybe what she thought wasn’t what she really thought. she agreed.
then i moved in to my childhood. it was traumatic, but i haven’t brought it up in 7 years after 5 years of complete hell (13-18) and 2 years of worse hell by way of anticipating the hell (11-13). fuck, it felt so good to use all the things she had just agreed to against her opinions on this subject. i’ve never done it before because i did not fully understand it and i would always abort the mission because i felt bad, but just getting it out felt soooooooo good and resulted in the weirdest, most hysterical unconscious giddy laughter 5 minutes later in my bed. i haven’t had a real laugh like that in a minute, and i don’t even fully know WHY i did.
i’m not mad at my mom, it’s just important to recognize what happened in order to move forward (stay stuck and be fuqed…and i’ve been stuck, but changed after having that epiphany/understanding/absolution of blame about my childhood)
interesting how ridiculously involuntary laughter, hysterical crying, and orgasms are all involuntary shaking motions involved in a release. if you look at the “trauma release exercises” online they talk about how animals take time outs to shake out trauma after it occurs…but humans are taught to keep it inside and thus shitty posture and forced expressions.
Neptune in Aqua was on my
(i) Midheaven: despite being qualified for computer-y + beyond jobs i had many on and off stripping stints…as well as trying to find happiness in relationships to avoid career pressure and responsibility. Yeah, hello daddy issues. Don’t let the door slam behind you now that Neptune’s out of the room..
(ii) Sun, so who I really am and want to be especially from 11 years of age = blurry.
I also have my moon (mom) and mars (dad?) in my 12th house and my parents both have NPD leading to terror, perfect grades, PTSD and anorexia for me. So ready to finally let it go now that I understand and have dropped any remaining brainwashing.
yes R… Ive just been reading about TRE and it sounds amazing… a friend did a workshop last year, I would love to do one…. Im longing for that release from tension/trauma right now and the shaking is what gives a very deep release!!! so cool it happened naturally for you… Though Imust say I woul dnot like the shaking that comes when Im actually in a fear state, i prefer the safe state…
I have those sort of dreams on a regular basis about loved ones who have died.
They are so real and vivid, and I totally recognise that feeling of “why did I think you were dead!” from them.
They sure do leave you feeling poignant and wistful about those who are in other dimensions of being, but I find them comforting too.
*11th house Scorpio Neptune one leg of yod to Saturn in Aries/ Sun Pluto exact conjunction in Virgo, and square Mars in Leo*
Just realised the “reset ecplise” falls in amongst all of that at 21 degree Scorpio. Neptune is 24 Scorp, Sun/Pluto at 22 Virgo and Saturn 24 Aries. Guess I better keep a weather eye out…
Lots of astral travelling dreams of late. Familiar faces and totally unconnected people and places in them. Weird but also comforting.
Myst ,thanxs for the message about ‘phoning it in-’ i’m onto that next week, Scorpio detective work for the eclipse.
Tonight i want to dream of my deceased topaz eyed fluffy white cat , Sugar Pearl, who used to put her padded paws around my neck & cuddle me.
She was killed by my neighbour’s unvaccinated feral tom at 10 years old 10 years ago, missed another 8-10 years extra of love & joy to & from her. Friends called her the love sponge, the white goddess on 4 legs.
She never miaowed, but sometimes squeaked & never killed, trained not to by associating birds with pleasure for her.
How co-incidental that the white spade in my court case was purchased for the pet cemetery under the tree.
Damn Chris Noth. He just keeps appearing in my dreams and he’s all big and important and dark-suited (a la in “The Good Wife”) and I have to go on a date with him. Every dream, I HAVE to go on a date with him and it’s just the most awful date ever. We have nothing in common, we sit there looking elsewhere, checking phones, looking at other tables for other friends… It’s like my subconscious has a momentary ad break or something and this is the ad it always plays.
But why Chris Noth? 5 times now it’s happened. He’s a Scorpio so maybe that has something to do with it? I should check the celebs that pop up in my dreams at certain times of the year to see if their sun signs match with that particular month. Now that would be cool.
It’s gotta be Chris Noth is the date because he is apparently a shallow player in reality and if you actually went on a date with him you would sit there and have entire sections of the date finding the wall paint interesting. Your subconscious knows it’s shit.
But why the dream? Repeat dreams have messages that can be profound. Are you wasting your time on a type of guy that actually doesn’t suit as represented by Mr. Big?
ok
right… so…. I had this realisation last night that a friendship that has mutually “let itself go” not without pain had some fairly bad juju at times, despite all the love…
Ive been playing tennis for a while now with a group of people I don’t know and it is amazing when they freely give strong compliments, are inclusive (though not always to be fair to my argument) and humble with their own game…. yet this friendship I recall when we played tennis (despite the loving inclusive nature of the friendship) was competitive, without tolerance or patience and ultimately destructive!
It was a really amazing insight for me to realise that there were some faults, more than just the conflict, some fundamental differences and ways of being that would continue to conflict against each other, and often amongst a fog of intense emotion, denial, what now seems like dishonesty, but beautiful bonding, honesty and deep sharing, lots of laughter dance and joy… so there goes, maybe there is no realisation of any consequence, some people just play better tennis than others… : )
Sometimes, yes, I get that competition is “friendly” but it often does have a distinct under current of wanting to see the other person lose, not just the structured game, but at the other game of everything. Ick. Qi Vampire-ish. Let one of those go myself. So be it.
he came to bring you a message. You are maybe being presented with new opportunities where you’ll have to rely on past lessons to be able to harness the gifts being presented??
Yeah, I am curious as to what the interesting astrology conversation covered.
I was just refering to Mystic dream and neptunes reflections i suppose:)
I woke up to a sad dream, immediately followed by a soothing voice “I am sorry but this is the best I can do now”
And of course Merc retro, two old flames showed up same day. Last night I almost blurted out what I still feel, Mystic’s Eclipse reset rules kept the gates guarded.
My instincts tell me I better retire to the inner space this weekend.
Interesting…I am really glad to be kicking off this whole Neptune-in-Pisces era (mainly a 6th house transit for me) with Saturn in my second house so my day-to-day borders are backed up by my values. I’m feeling pretty non-zombie and way more into my art.
Dreamed my sister came back- clad in Vestal tunic- carting candelabras. She said “You are NOT going to believe where I’ve been and what I have been doing. I’m going to tell you all about it!” Alas, I awoke. She left us in June. My Isis conj her Libra Sun/ Neptune- that heavy cardinal sweep took her away.
I just found this write up on planetwaves about Neptune turning direct and some of the astro themes of the year. Never heard of transpluto before, but it does sound like magically new beginnings for us all: http://planetwaves.net/pagetwo/astrology-with-len-wallick/no-illusions-neptune-stations-direct/
Transpluto?
Good read though.
Not so sure about ghosts, but at least two people have come to me with their dreams about the past in general. I want to say it has something to do with the Mercury in retrograde? idk..
Ghosts… It seems a cold term for people who just can’t move on. Like Love Zombies of the Spirit World I guess.
The death process is so mucky. Energy/shamanic type work is icky too, it’s really just being a garbo of the etheric. Never so clear as when you see how the door to the spirit world is swinging open & shut like a fly wire door on an old verandah while a person is dying.
My dear Auntie died last week, it was such a horrid process, couldn’t swallow, no IV, fevers & thirst for four days. They didn’t want to prolong her death further by interfering and as much as her spirit would agree I could feel her body struggling, afraid and then just plugging on regardless. As she was relatively young, the heart didn’t know how to stop itself.
Did a spirit journey and talked with her ‘ghost’, somewhere between a dream & reality, but my reality in truth. There was struggle but the funeral today went well and I saw her release herself onward.
I tried driving to the burial in the countryside with no map, just GPS & got lost! I drove in total 5 hours. When I was 20km from the cemetery I turned around & went home as she wasn’t there anyway. Funny thing, I knew I wouldn’t get there as I left, but I kept going anyway.
Why do we do things like that?!
My Mars (in the 3rd house of short trips) is opposite Neptune (in the 9th) atm. I will give this incident over to pure astrology and nothing else.
“Funny thing, I knew I wouldn’t get there as I left, but I kept going anyway.
Why do we do things like that?!”
So, so, so many times, and in so many ways, right?
So be it. Glad you saw her release. You’re right, she wasn’t there any way.
Peace and blessings to you.
Ha! Yes, too true. My Neptune/Mars opposition resolution is to do my best to understand when I am truly guided (an art in itself) and act upon said guidance without hesitation (martial style).
Was sorry to miss the burial, but perhaps best afterall. My sis was supposed to the eulogy and decided not to at the last mo. Seems very disrespectful to me. She doesn’t believe in the afterlife, but my aunt was nun. Anyway, as a living person I had wanted that verbal honouring and closure. Ugh! The water signs in the family are so self-protective and self-involved, it’s about how they feel and never about what’s good for the group, I find it so selfish.
I can’t even go there with that one Andie…
Part of me says, Jesus Christ, give her some morphine (pardon my language),..another part knows that sometimes it’s the vividity of the experience that the Soul needs… to be fully present, pain and all.
Sorry you got lost love but today, I had a little spirit reading with a gal who does numerology and an animal spirit deck. She said ‘don’t say you LOST the weight, say you released it…”
Ah yes, I get that…perhaps you released too..
Regardless, you sound strong Lioness…x
Thank you lovely Sweet Pea. Yes I think it was a release just to chew up road. She was on morphine but I don’t know if that slakes thirst, it certainly appeared not to.. It’s ok now, congrats on yr transformation btw!
Saggo here. Nothing neptunian for me right now, and rightly so, as I have too much earthly shit that I have to deal with, much as I would like to escape it. However, a couple of weeks ago I did see an old man in the neighbourhood at what turned out to be the moment he died in hospital.
The earthly shit I am dealing with is someone else’s problem turned into mine as well. He came to me for help with a problem that I can’t solve -and it is partly in the neptunian space. We’re up against a pre-ordained decision, prefaced by a process that may yet destroy him. I knew I couldn’t solve his neptunian problems – that’s for him – or even change the outcome, but I became involved to show that not not everyone is out to get him.
I had an unusual and realistic dream this AM, too. But I am still thinking about the really cute man in the grocery store. The REAL really cute man–and still kinda distracted.
I suppose both of above are Neptune.
My sister keeps having dreams where her hands are being eaten. Different situations, but they all somehow end up with her hands being consumed by something, animal, human, zombie. In one dream a child was eating her hands. We are both very perplexed. She doesn’t seem to have a clue what it’s about.
Has she got people in her life who are holding her back, stopping her from doing something she wants to do? People who are “tying her hands”?
Is she in a situation where she feels her power is being undermined?
Does she have children? Is she going through some trying/difficult times with them?
Interesting. Nothing is holding her back, she has no kids, no trying times. The opposite. She has been given everything her whole life, and is in an envious position. But I think that’s a scary place to be in some respects. It’s easier to have an excuse to not be happy or to not achieve. She holds herself back, I think. Maybe the hands are her creative ability. I don’t know. We’ve both been wondering about it. What sign rules the hands? She is a Kataka sun and asc, with planets also in Kataka, and her moon is in Pisces. Kind of a Mer-Girl, all around.
Been feeling the ghosts in daily life and I’m sure the dreams have been very vivid, but I can’t really remember them, I just seem to wake up with a song in my head or some kind of revelation/useful thought, but I can’t link them to the dream.
Weird dreams abound here too. A recurring dream about my dearly departed Pisces dog, who I always thought of as a guardian angel. She’s been back in my dreams for weeks now, along with sundry other dogs.
I’ve also been dreaming about my first love. What I at 15 thought was ‘true love’ turned out to be something else entirely. I found out a few months back that he was convicted 5 years ago of child sex offences and is now doing hard time. I had a bit of a meltdown at the time I found out, but then haven’t really given him much thought since. Yet he keeps appearing in my dreams so there must be some stuff to sort out. Perhaps it affected me more than I realised and is connected to my sexless marriage.
LOADS of dreams about my ex lover. The final fly-past, letting him go for good.
I cannot wait for Neptune to go direct, I am doing a ritual, I am seriously leaving all the merde behind. I’m glad the lover didn’t leave his wife for me. After the reset moon I’m taking the next steps re winding up the marriage. I’m hopeful of finding love again but first I am tending to my life.
hi dear – sounds all pretty intense. I often dream of some of my dead cats, and its lovely – I find it an anima energy. The dark moon and neptune turning – M said there would be old love angst etc. Sometimes these sad old things return for re-processing but its great you’re not dwelling too much and I wouldn’t assign too much value or weight to the 1st love stuff either. I believe growth is a concentric, but ascending process and so we often do revisit old stuff but each time with a greater perspective. x x
Hi there – yep, pretty intense but also very simple when all’s said and done. You’re right re the first love stuff – it’s illuminating to have made the connection but that’s all it needs to be. No further mining required, imo.
The last sleepless night I made myself think of ten good things to come out of the breakup with the lover and that was also v illuminating. Helped me put that to rest. (Finally – I hope!!)
Hope you’re on track for your deadline? xx
hi there – you sound sanguine at least! I too can’t wait for neptune to turn – inspired by you to do ritual as well. i’m in a terrible work bottleneck Chrys – PhD, day job, other project all peaking – my bad but its one of those piscean nightmares where you keep going… well, I have X more days… *groans* x x
Haha oh dear. I hear you
Time to channel all your Virgo planets and haul everything over the line… Get whatever you can down on paper and remember the old muso saying – you can always ‘fix it in the mix’ xx
thank you! x x
Yep, the lover and the marriage are always part of the same story. Be free to choose from the infinite.
Neptune one degree of my DC in Scorpio. Eclipse in Scorpio.
Mercury rets at 4 degree right on my sun. Mercury rets natally. I’m not feeling any merde around this retro and true to Saggi style might be shooting my arrow off too quickly but I think this one will be more magic than mental.
Ok yeah we get to phone it in a bit but it’s been a tough little run of late. I guess even with that there’s that innate sense of being able to swim even whilst being smashed on some jagged rocks. Today is ok but what was with the last two days?
Dreamscape has been pretty out there for some time. I always have a dose of otherworldly activity whether awake or asleep so that hasn’t felt more than usual. I have seen what I would call random short to medium term future outcomes however in some dreams and seem to be bringing up old and odd past that seems sort of irrelevant but must somehow be relevant so I watch bemused for all to be made clear in it’s own time.
Speaking of Neptune, Pisces doc’s playlist recently had this on the system at the office….Said omg, I remember that song! From 1985 album “Crush”…didn’t know…how funny.
Love the happy little ditty parts,,,do finger thingys in the air..

HI. I haven’t been here for awhile, my computer hasn’t been working.
I have been missing it.
I love these dreams. They occur on and off for me, with my moon in the 12th.
Heya Catfish
Welcome back!
I dreamed of my Dad a few nights ago, he died 2 years ago, in the dream he was quite distressed, I’ve been asking for his message, but I feel its about Mum, I keep sending him love & telling him to let go & be free …
Is your Mum holding on to him ?
I guess they’re both holding on, they were together 60 years & tho I can criticize all the dependencies manipulations & undercurrents that were so much a part of the fabric of the family (uugggh) – I guess they loved each other too, so the separation is distressing.
When I say let go – I just wish for him to be free of earthly cares & concerns, my understanding of the spirit realms or whatever after death is not clear, more just what I feel & sense.
I tend to have this dream where my flight lands prematurely and then I rolling through a jungle like atmosphere.
I don’t think I’m doing this too well! Already feeling the push to drive success in business before the eclipse Wednesday. And taking action….too soon?
I’m being very careful. It’s just way too hard to sit on my hands and not do ANYTHING.
I’m making sure to weigh up the pros and cons of every single action.
Would it be best to just wait completely and do a whole lot of energy clearing until Wednesday and then power ahead???
IT all just seems like a major waste of time!!!!!!
There’s SO MUCH TO BE DONE!!! AHHHHHHHHHHHH!
Can I jusrt say that the pix looks like the bitch been on a three day drunk?
Everything clawing at her is the ghosts…
In that regard, I get it (you’s have ghosts too if you were drunk)
lol…Oh I love Mystic
Question: Would tonight, tomorrow, Sunday OR AFTER THE ECLIPSE (Last option!) be the best time to contact someone who I haven’t been in contact with in a long time (say a few months) but who has recently extended the olive branch to me (and I haven’t responded yet)?
All this mercury retro talk is getting be confused!!! Heaps of astrologers are saying different things.
Mystic keeps saying to wait till after the eclipse to do anything, but other astrologers are saying that NOW is the time to reach out, make connections, be vulnerable, share etc.
Which is correct!!!
If I rememember rightly, people often retrace their steps during a merc retro, yes old contacts reappear, but might just disappear again at the end of the retro.
Personally, it’s always a good time to make the peace… But not for sliding back to old paradigms.
What house is the merc retro for you ? There should be clues there and your current merc transits
I feel I am being haunted. My ended-long-ago ex was killed a year ago this month. There are many things that make me feel this way, for example, next week I am going on a business trip with not one but two male colleagues who have his first name… one of them is my boss. I couldn’t have the ex around me when he was alive and I sure don’t want him around me now that he’s gone.
Last night I dreamed that I was giving birth, and it was a terrible, painful, bloody affair. For some reason this was all happening at work; I was sitting at my desk. The doctor brought up “an old method of doing things” – just relax, stop pushing so hard, and let the blood and everything else just come. It was super intense. My dreaming brain didn’t stick around for the actual birth but this is what stuck with me after I woke up.
I had that dream once, but it was with my grandmother. I said “I thought you were dead” and she said “I just had to get away from it all for a bit” (or maybe she said “I had to get away from your grandfather” and anyway, she looked great and was so happy. Her advice for me was “Just keep moving.” I think this really meant that the guy I liked was bad news (which he turned out to be) and I should not hang about with him instead of having adventures. It was good advice. Yay Neptune dreams!
Aw gerd… I just had waking all through the night thinking about work problems! And there are may, I’m gonna have to write it all out today, that was too much for my poor sleeping brain to handle…. Work shouldn’t be so stressful right!
So I wake up this morning and find some guided chakra clearing meditation, wack on my soft eye mask and reawaken 2 hrs later from a lucid dream and feeling totally cleared after 4 months of stuff. I read this post the day before. Checked the venue for the Newtown 150th Festival and discover it was a former cemetery (not another dead Sydney venue !! Sydney Town Hall = first Sydney cemetery. Kinselas, Black Market were both spooked mortuaries turned nightclub… And now this place). I head off to my storage place in Alexandria to find my summer doona and plan to find this festival and see my friend’s band play. I got spooked at storage. I never get spooked but it seems only in Sydney (lived in Europe for a while). Anyway, there’s footsteps in long chambered corridors and I’m feeling uneasy and thinking of this post go out to the sunshine smoke a cigarette and vampires out of there. Wow that word was not meant to be vampires – it was an iPad spell correction. It was meant to be vamoose! Glad I came back to a home filled with the cheer and glee of an 11th pool party. Oh because this is my first comment and I read so many threads, I’m a cancer, libra rising with a Scorpio moon.
Sydney is the only place in the world have seen vampires,
with the fangs & tiny silver crosses in their puplis.
I’ve been having a lot of dreams about being held by someone and don’t know who they are but it’s so comfortable and secure, ect
The one it was a huge arm with lots of tattoos but again, no idea of who it was.
A side question(s) while on the dream topic. Is it..crazy to ask maybe but has anyone ever dreamed about someone before meeting them? Then you meet them and it hits you that they were in a dream?
What’s weird was at the time, in my dream my mind was telling me it was my ex, although looked nothing like him.. but instead looked like a person I met not long ago.
Someone different I encountered recently triggered intense deja vu(sp?) that lingered on and off for days and very strong feeling that had met before but hadn’t. Is this something that happens?
End of Crazy Lady rant
