On an astrological note, Jupiter, the planet of opportunity, now in Cap, expands on our awareness as we venture into new avenues such as education and government. Relationships take on a new perspective, as we begin to build bridges between contrasting beliefs and values. A strong desire to understand oppositional views, and the need to create balance is in order. As the warrior planet Mars, continues into the money sign of Scorpio, our desire to create financial stability takes hold. Direct movement with Jupiter and Mars, in balance to the transiting Sun will enhance our sense of drive as we forge ahead towards the new year. For many this holiday season will be one of balance and harmony as the planets playfully interlock, and a sense of ease permeates each and every one of us.

The planet Neptune, long considered the planet of make believe, rules our dreams, fantasies and illusions. Retrograde since May 26, Neptune finally turns direct on November 1. When Neptune turns retrograde, logic falls to the wayside in favor of esoteric interests and intuition. People begin to pay more attention to their dreams and explore more creative outlets. Now that Neptune turns direct, dreams that have been bubbling below the surface may begin to rise to consciousness. You may also feel an increase of compassion, rebirth of idealism and an increased spiritual awareness. Make a plan to re-connect with your goals and ideals, and cultivating a big-picture approach! Did you know that it takes 165 years for Neptune to circle the Sun one time, long enough for this planet to spend 14 years in each sign of the zodiac? Stationary for two weeks or so at a time, Neptune goes into retrograde five months out of every year. If Neptune is retrograde in your chart, you may be deeply involved in escapism, or living in a dream world. No one really knows what goes on behind your eyes and, though you may be sitting at a desk in an office, you're probably dancing ballet or hunting wolverines in your mind. The position of this planet can make some people more inhibited and unable to realize their dreams. Alternatively, some can be plunged into a dream world from which they can't resurface. This could even include drug or alcohol abuse, constant escapism, running away or absolutely shutting out reality.
