Weekly Horoscope

UNDER THE INFLUENCE

There’s a reason why Neptune is the planet of popular delusions and the madness of crowds. People believe what they want to believe when its influence is powerful and they can’t be talked out of it. This week the Sun, Mercury, and Mars will all fall under its spell which means that it will be easy to lose yourself in its thrall. You may find yourself emptying of all resolve, unable to follow a course that was clear to you days ago, or suddenly willing to yield the field after saying you wouldn’t stand down. There are times when softening your stance or accommodating others is good, but this isn’t one of them. Conjunctions and squares don’t always bring out the best in this watery planet. In some cases they bring out the worst. That’s why you would be well-advised to postpone any big decisions, pledges, or moves until next week when Neptune’s influence wanes. You don’t want to wake up scratching your head in disbelief as to what you’ve done.
