While this week’s Pele Report gives an overview of our times, there are always more and deeper levels to be explored. One of those has to do with the nature of Neptune. Where Neptune falls in your birth chart, by transit and progression, shows where you are vulnerable to deception due to innocence, naivete, false assumptions and beliefs, self-delusion, lack of discrimination and discernment, or blind faith (to name a few as there are more). The transiting Sun coming into conjunction with Neptune this weekend will shed light on our illusions and delusions, hopefully bringing us greater self-awareness, maturity, and responsibility.

Fortunately, (and there are no accidents) Venus, Mars, and Saturn all transiting Aquarius, the great awakener, will help us maintain an “observer/witness position” to offset the Wetiko mind virus of Mercury (logical thought), Jupiter (intuition), Sun (self-awareness), and Neptune (Spirit) all moving through the deep realms of the collective unconscious. This represents not only the perpetuation of propaganda, mind control, lies, and deception running rampant and causing absolute chaos for many people but that at least some of these lies will be exposed. This can represent a time when the dragon clearly shows and reveals himself within and without, that we may take his reins, tame him, and benefit from his additional power. Unrecognized, of course, the dragon is capable of causing significant damage. We will see both.

The old adage “Nothing is as it appears” is a good attitude to hold during these next few weeks. The coming events are a sure opportunity to strengthen the muscles of intuition, self-trust, and self-reliance. The more we can tap into, listen to, and follow our inner voice, the more we will be guided toward our highest destiny. When making choices, it will be good to pause and reflect on whether those choices (based upon judgments both conscious and unconscious) are coming from old tapes of external authorities or are your own, inner, soul guidance. You may need to dig deep within your psyche/past, but you will be glad you did.
