Mars/Chiron urges you to take action regarding a painful issue because today it should be easier. Express yourself- doubts about your talent can be confronted and integrated into what you’re doing. Efforts based on purpose and self-determination will put you in the drivers’ seat- others hurt, just like you, but your bravery will show them the way. Put yourself first with the understanding that you’re still vulnerable-this is the difference between acting from a place of arrogance versus acting with tempered pride, awareness and empathy. Pain deepens the brilliance of your light because others recognize their own wounds in your battle.

Neptune makes the third of three oppositions to Vesta, concluding an issue that’s been in effect since Dec 20th, 2020. The focus on details/perfection is challenged by the pull to let it all go. At this point you’ve reached a final turning point where you decide to fix what’s broken (rather than ignoring it) or accept that some broken things cannot be fixed. The error may be dissolving (it’s just not an issue anymore) or you’ve determinedly punctured the bubble of illusion with your precise focus.
Vesta in Virgo is sacred reality- purifying what’s immediately in front of you. Neptune Rx in Pisces is the reveal of what’s false/clouded so you can ascend into pure truth, acceptance and forgiveness. This is the axis of earth and spirit -where does your issue lie on this axis?
