With the Moon conjunct, opposite, or square Neptune, your emotions swirl, pointing vaguely towards both enlightenment and turmoil.

Venus in Pisces: Heart of the Ocean
Venus in Pisces is exalted in traditional astrology, where it gains an optimal position for a planet to express its qualities.

Alan Watts famously described falling in love as a “divine madness.” His characterization aligns closely with the essence…
Virgo: The Goddess of Deep Work – Do Not Disturb
The noble Virgo is often mistaken for the neurotic librarian of the zodiac, but oh, they’re so much more.The Virgin, associated with purity, yet so involved in the grit and grind of daily existence.

Astrology, Psychology and the Four Elements
In astrology, personalities can be divided and categorized by the four elements: Fire, Earth, Air, and Water. Each with its own way of engaging with the world, both outwardly and within the deepest recesses of our psyches.
