Every month when the Moon unites with giant Jupiter (7:21AM PST), this specific lunar conjunction (right now in earthy Taurus) can represent the highlight of the day as well as the most important cosmic happening. Not so today. Some 3+ hours after this increase in euphoria and positive thinking, far-out Neptune at 29 degrees of Aquarius grabs center stage by ceasing its recent retrograde motion and making a direct station (10:55AM PST). [Neptune remains in forward motion until June 4, 2012 when it once again reverses gears at 4 degrees of Pisces.] While our modern calculations for planetary placements in the zodiac give out a precise time for the pausing in space of Neptune, the reality is that Neptune’s major themes are active all day long. When Neptune is positive in its influence, we are immersed in spiritual insights, revelatory dreams, astounding visions of the future or other dimensions of consciousness – plus marvelous explorations in the fine and graphic arts, music, dance, theater, poetry, film and photography. Neptune can also equate with activity in and around waterways, and regarding oceanic and sea life. On the shadow side, Neptune correlates with addictive behavior, feelings of martyrdom and sacrifice as well as a rising tide of confusion, chaos and uncertainty. The practicality and business-like approach of lunar Taurus goes against the grain of the bulk of Neptunian archetypes. Primary partnerships may receive a boost this evening as Juno in Scorpio makes a supportive, 60-degree rapport with Pluto in Capricorn (10:08PM PST). Be prepared for a new wave of inspiration seeking entrance into the minds of human souls as tomorrow brings a potent Full Moon (12:17PM PST on Thursday) and the direct station of Chiron in Pisces (3:15PM PST on Thursday).
