Neptune stands so excruciatingly close to Saturn and inches nearer by the hour. Only 12 minutes of an arc separates the two on 18 July - given the retrogradation rates of both gaseous giants, that is as close as they get for the moment. Undisputedly they are in orb and the full effects of a conjunction are now endured by all on planet Earth. Saturn and Neptune precisely conjoin in our not so distant future:19 February 2026, less than a degree into Aries. At that time, everything that one imagines and engages in this current interval possesses the hints of a successful end game.
This transit stimulates the Field of Dreams syndrome. If you’ve never seen the movie, it is worth watching. The characters defy real world sensibilities in the pursuit of an unrealized outcome and with a healing agenda that seems impossible to resolve.
Simply put, this is a time in which reality opposes fantastic visions. It remains critical to reconcile and pursue life’s greatest aspirations despite all real world signals that challenge common sense. Is this a matter of throwing caution to the wind, following whimsy without any grounded sensibility? No, not at all.
To manifest a great vision into reality, do Saturn to it:
Figure out what resources will be required.
Budget accordingly. If money does not organically appear to fulfill the budget, persist with what can be successfully completed.
Calculate a projection for a timeline of completion of the project.
Learn whatever you must learn (or hire those who already know what you do not).
It may be necessary to fabricate a prototype or an example. This works way better than tossing out an idle idea with no grit behind it.
Regarding the last point above, before supporting fantastical visions, people want to see real world application and significant gritty effort on the part of the proponent. For instance, if one wants to publish a book, write the book. Do not simply pitch the idea. Others want to see something that resembles “skin in the game.” And such effort satisfies Saturn.
Envision and engage every possible action to ensure fulfillment of the vision.
Also in orb presently and working up to an exact conjunction with Orcus (13 July) is Mars in Virgo. Now that Mars approaches the halfway point in the fields of Virgo, his requirements should be clear. What about that Orcus thing?
Orcus, the Etruscan version of Pluto, maintained charge over oaths, vows, promises, commitments, all things implied by nuance to be on the horizon or around the next bend. His task was to render punishment to all who fail to deliver upon any hint of promised outcomes that tantalize sensibilities.
To maximize this transit, engage all those promises, contracts, agreements and vows and work them forward as efficiently as possible.
Remember all promises submitted to your soul. Keep your word to yourself. Do not quit, nor take any action that fails to fulfill any commitment rendered to yourself
Do the best every single day sans judgment. At the end of each day document what you have done on all fronts to assure the success of your stated intentions and objectives.
And there’s something else offering fodder for fecundity that supports the visions and dreams one seeks to manifest. The third known interstellar visitor, A11pl3Z, recently blipped deep sky observation devices. Because this object initially was perceived to possibly come close to our planet’s orbit - potentially a Near Earth Object - it was given a heap of attention. The object now is perceived to be a comet in an unbound hyperbolic trajectory around the Sun with an extremely high eccentricity (greater than 6; the most extreme of all the known interstellar wanderers). This cosmic interloper, has since been redesignated 3I/ATLAS or C/2025 N1.
This visitor, which brings with it whatever from way out there insight that it does, passes near Mars in October. Mars then occupies late Scorpio and trines Saturn and Neptune in Pisces. Could this passage contribute to synthesis of the Saturn-Neptune thing? Sure. The north node (heliocentric) of the interloper weighs in at 22 Aquarius, prompting the question: how beneficial to humankind is this thing that you want to do and seek to get me onboard with as a supporter or at least as a user?
Where is it now? I do not know. I have found multiple locations for it via online sources - all very different. Until a stable and trusted source appears, I will not speculate on its zodiacal position.
Previously, Earth witnessed two interstellar visitors: Comet 2I/Borisov, which romped through our solar system in 2019, and Oumuamua, a cigar-shaped object that freaked out the world in 2017. The Oumuamua freak out was stimulated by speculation from some astronomers that it was an alien probe. How disappointing that the final and official assessment noted it was merely a hydrogen-spewing space rock.
In Hawaiian, Oumuamua translates to "a messenger from afar arriving first." Okay, so what if A11pl3Z is a messenger from afar arriving third? Virgo supports the idea that repeating information three times more likely drives it home and makes it stick in ones mind. As October arrives, A11pl3Z brings its messaging especially near, reaching its closest point of approach to Earth on 30 October (according to current calcs, subject to change).
This gizmo could provide a key component in the transits at hand. Include all messages. Listen to all options. Ignore no data. Come up with solutions that best serves all you envision to be on your developing slate and ensure it works for you as well as for the good of all concerned!
More soon.
Aligned with the interloper suggestions above, likely this is an ideal time to receive constructive input that serves your best purposes and dreams. Consultations can easily be ordered with the links below. Questions can similarly be posed. Galactic Reports add insight to what you already know about your chart. The Kuiper Belt / Galactic Astrology Study Program (KBGASP) can be ordered and downloaded immediately expand astrological insights and awareness.
Maybe at this time, none of this is for you. Would you be so good as to let others know that this information and astrological support exists for them as well? You might be doing someone else the perfect Mars in Virgo favor.
