It’s hard to tell if you’re staying true to your vision or chasing a mirage when Mars forms a trine to Neptune on October 28. On one hand, it feels like you’re getting closer and closer to your goal, yet everything seems so transitory, like it could all slip away like water through your fingers. These are the shifting sands sensations that often accompany Neptune’s illusory energy, which is why you will need to take things one step at a time. Keep doing what you’re doing, and you’ll arrive at your destination—or at least an oasis—on November 2nd.
