Mars Neptune conjunction in Pisces is occurring on May 18th 2022.
Having reached a threshold, we may not feel satisfied with the results we got until this point. We may feel disappointed at ourselves and others. We may be thinking the worst, seeing the glass half empty. These are feelings we need to face, accept and deal with. What is it that we can do now about it?
Lately, and especially since Jupiter Neptune conjunction on April 12, there has been an awakening to a higher state of consciousness, which is more loving, generous and sensitive. This love comes from the soul! We have been able to feel much more what surrounds us and what others may be feeling. We are more vulnerable to the emotions around us. And this can sensitize us to many injustices happening in the world, although we may feel powerless to do anything about it right now.
So, take a deep breath, dive in and face the unknown. There is a new strength inside you which you may not be totally aware of. Witness your feelings of discouragement, guilt, your fears and sorrows, but don’t let them overpower you. Instead, have compassion for yourself and know that there is a part of you which can overcome these feelings.

This is a time for purification, transcendence and catharsis. There are strong and maybe overwhelming emotions, a feeling of being lost, victimized and overpowered by the unconscious. This is a powerful and scary energy for many, because it requires a lot of faith.
These can be very turbulent and confusing times. There may be a lot of confusion around what is going on and where we are supposed to go, around who is who in a situation and what is supporting us moving forward.
There can be dispute towards what is the ideal path, discussion and arguing around the future, lack of clarity around what to expect or hope for. This can be a time of fear and paranoia around decisions we are supposed to make. We may feel unprepared for what’s next.

Our feelings are showing us that there is a struggle within, a struggle to dissolve emotional attachments to certain beliefs. There is not one unique way to pursue. We must detach from an obsessive approach to what we believe now, because there are actually many possible and successful outcomes for us. We should stay open and avoid being single-minded about something.
There is an opportunity to be realistic about emotional attachments to certain beliefs, and to be released from them through rational considerations. What have your experiences shown you? What has your reality imposed on you? This is a time to question your beliefs, to see if they’re not out of date.

Amongst all of this, Jupiter now in Aries provides us with some refreshed faith. But we must concentrate on ourselves, our energy and will power, apart from what is going on outside. This is hope we can find within our sense of self, out of what we have learned lately about ourselves and who we truly are.
So, don’t stop believing in yourself! Yes, you can start anew. Understand that there is always a new beginning after a cycle has ended, and there is always a new possibility after something or someone has left. There is always some fresh air you can breathe, somewhere else you can go, someone else you can meet. There is always a way to restart and it is up to you.
Mars will soon reach Aries, its own sign, and conjunct Jupiter. That will give us energy and will power to respond to our soul’s calling. That’s when we can have the courage to stand up for this calling and to take a step, after coming to realize our connection to one another and hopefully even having tasted a bit of universal love ;-)

This gives us clarity, objectivity and emotional detachment around our self-value. We can now be able to see excesses and attachments to personal values, understand what lies in the basis of them, what caused them and why it may be so difficult to overcome them.
We can now go beyond appearances to grasp the essence of matters. We can see and understand some outdated patterns and structures in our groups and in our cultures now, which have influenced and maybe even dictated our personal values. And this opens up the way to transform these rigid patterns and structures.

There are wounds coming from excessive masculine orientation which need to be healed and this issue is going on since Chiron entered Aries back in 2018. So, with Venus here, we value the need to alternate activity with rest, assertion with attraction, giving and receiving, so there can be a harmonic healthy rhythm in existence. Maybe we just need some time to rest now, before we take action again. If we push too hard, it can damage us and our relationships.
On a collective level, since male chauvinism is a collective issue, there are important lessons here about the welfare of people. There is a need to soften aggressiveness, diminish conflicts and wars, slow down the arms and space race. This is not what we should be concentrating on right now.
We need to desperately and urgently solve the problem of hunger and extreme poverty. There is no priority in travelling to Mars if we cannot even take care of our home, the Earth, and its beings. Mars can wait. Now, our home is being devastated by pollution of its air and waters, fires on the forests, which increase many problems, diseases spreading quickly and, as if these weren’t enough, we also have wars. Again, when there should be union and alliance, there is division and dispute. The question is: how can we get to a common ground, to an agreement, so we can move on to solve our problems? Or are we just continuing to argue while the world collapses around us?
