Star Struck Style

Transiting Neptune is currently square my natal moon. This is a once-in-a-lifetime alignment for me, and it’s going to be affecting me for several months. Still, I’m not convinced that it’s going to change my behavior too much because Neptune isn’t personalized in my horoscope.

Nevertheless, the transit does make one more sponge-like. When an individual is under the influence of this aspect, they can “absorb” the vibes of others. In a room full of cranky people, for instance, they’ll become cranky themselves.

Just a couple of months ago, I mentioned an incident at one of my part-time jobs where my assistant manager mentioned that the “energy” changed when I started my shift. That was a compliment: I was in a great mood that day, unlike my coworkers. I try to be positive and upbeat when I go to work, and if I’m not in the mood to be positive, I usually keep to myself. This transit should keep me doing exactly that. When I’m in situations where the “energy” is negative, doing what I can to remove myself from the situation is the remedy. Otherwise, it’s likely that I can get sucked into a world that is far more negative than the one I choose to live in.

I’ve already learned to avoid my family in situations like this. When my brother and my mother are around each other, the conversation often becomes far more negative than either of them realize. For such fortunate people, they really complain a lot about nothing. Now I need to be sure that I don’t end up in other situations that are especially negative. It’s lucky for me that I’ve been doing that already. My new year’s resolution was to find happiness in my own little world, and this transit will encourage me to continue on that path.

So, that’s what I’m going to do. I’m going to be Mary Fucking Sunshine for the next couple of years. I’m going to be so positive that it’s going to make the rest of you feel suicidal. Or maybe I’ll just try my hardest not to be a buzzkill when I’m not at my best. Perhaps that’s a more-practical option.

It’s good to have a goal . . .
