April 17
Mercury conjunct Neptune
Mercury suffused with the rays of Neptune in Aries makes you both inspirational AND motivational. Not only are people convinced that you can make them a better version of themselves, they will push to exceed expectations. There’s something about your confidence that sparks bravery in others. It’s not unlike Shakespeare’s Henry V’s St. Crispin speech where he embraces his men as his “band of brothers” and urges them to fight back against the French armies who outnumber them. This call to action transcends any victory because there’s victory even in defeat. It’s the struggle that counts. This is an amazing transit for anyone who coaches, mentors, or guides because you are the flame that lights the bonfire. Where’s there’s belief, there’s triumph. Signs most affected: Aries, Gemini, Leo, Sagittarius, and Pisces
