“The very least you can do in your life is figure out what you hope for. And the most you can do is live inside that hope. Not admire it from a distance but live right in it, under its roof.” Barbara Kingsolver

Communications flow more seamlessly today, and are steeped with inspiration, as articulate Mercury trines idealistic Neptune, an aspect that also aligns us with our long-term vision and the hopes that we hold for our life, as well as for the people that we love. There’s also more of a willingness and ability now, to step inside another person’s shoes, and see what that person is thinking and feeling – something which can also lead to a deeper sense of connection and trust between people.  The late Stephen R. Covey referred to trust as the “glue of life,” and said that it was the “foundational principle that holds all relationships.”

Because Mercury also rules contracts, when it’s aligned with the more surrendering, diffusive, unifying Neptunian energy, we also see, sometimes, more of an inclination to sign, or at least negotiate, peace treaties, or other similar kinds of agreements. Too, Mercury-Neptune carries a strong creative component, making it an ideal time to work on projects that require the use of our imagination or envisioning skills.

The waning Crescent Moon also remains in curious, breezy Gemini, all day, making harmonious aspects to Uranus (originality), 8:50 am, Jupiter (optimism), 3:21 pm, and Venus (love and our power attraction), 11:31 pm.
