Bathing in a Sea of Emotions: Neptune Stations Retrograde

Feeling a bit underwater? Inundated with a sense of unclarity? Bathing in a sea of emotions? Perceiving the world to be a sea of illusion, confusion and disillusionment?

This sense may be stronger these days given that energetics associated with Neptune-- boundary-blurring, permeability and sensitivity—is quite palpable given its stationing retrograde today.

Surrender to your feelings, letting them pour over you. Consider how taking some time alone, floating by yourself, can be nourishing over the coming days. Perhaps it's a way to connect you to your center, allow the streaming of soulful longings stream through you. Take time to infuse yourself in Neptunian activities--swim, bathe, read/write poetry, see/make art, read spiritual texts, smile at strangers, pray, meditate, radiate compassion, do creative visualization...anything that touches and moves your spirit.

Yet, if spending alone time isn't nourishing, then come together with friends, family, and community who are also swimming in sensitivity right now and hold space for one another. Join together in activities that move, touch and/or inspire you. Use your direct hotline to the reservoir of compassion and focus on creative manifests that move, touch and/or inspire others. See art, make art, be art-- remember it for its ability to channel and stream love, acceptance, and empathy.

As Neptune infuses a sense of floating and waviness, some people experience strong Neptune times as ungrounding. Watch for this, and do what you can to stay centered so that you don't lose your center and/or have accidents because of your head being in the clouds.
