The mechanics
What's happening
Neptune conjunct your Mars
Neptune dissolves whatever it touches: it softens, blurs, idealizes and lets go. It brings imagination, compassion and longing, and the fog in which it is hard to see what is real. Your Mars is your drive: how you want, act, fight, and go after what you need.
A conjunction puts the transiting planet on the same degree as your natal point: the two merge, and the planet's drive becomes the point's drive for the duration. It is the most direct and total contact. Here the transiting Neptune makes a conjunction to your natal Mars, so Neptune's drive meets your Mars at that angle. Neptune runs a 165-year cycle, so each angle to this point happens once, if at all.
The tell
What it feels like
- Low energy, vague motivation and confusion about what you want.
- Inspired action in art, healing or spirit.
- Anger goes underground; the body is sensitive.

How long it lasts
Brace, or build?
Neptune takes about fourteen years per sign, so a transit to one point lasts about two years across up to five passes. It is felt as a slow season rather than an event: a year of fog, a year of clearing.
The move
What to do with it
Somewhere to go
Act on inspiration in small daily steps instead of waiting for the surge. Protect the body from substances. Neptune on Mars refines the will; keep it moving at half speed.
