Avoid During Transit Pluto Semisquare Neptune

• Don’t ignore your intuition. If something feels off, trust those gut feelings instead of brushing them aside.
• Avoid getting involved in shady deals or anything that seems too good to be true. This transit can make it easy to get fooled.
• Don’t escape reality with substances like drugs or alcohol. It’s tempting to numb out, but it’ll probably make things worse.
• Try not to bury your emotions. Even if it feels heavy, letting things build up could turn into bigger issues later.
• Don’t get lost in fantasies or wishful thinking. Stay connected to what’s real, even if dreaming feels easier.
• Avoid keeping big secrets or hiding the truth, especially from yourself. Secrets can bubble up in uncomfortable ways during this time.
• Don’t take on too much for others or try to be a martyr. You need your energy for yourself right now.
• Steer clear of cult-like groups or anyone promising magic solutions to life’s problems. There’s a risk of being misled.
• Don’t ignore your mental or spiritual health. If things feel murky or confusing, get grounded- talk to someone you trust.
• Try not to over-interpret your dreams or symbols. Sometimes a dream is just a dream, not a sign of doom or destiny.

To Do During Transit Pluto Semisquare Neptune

• Question your beliefs- it’s a great time to ask yourself what you really believe in and ditch ideas that don’t make sense anymore.
• Explore your subconscious- try journaling, therapy, or dream analysis to see what’s going on under the surface.
• Get creative- art, music, writing, or even just doodling can help you process feelings during confusing times.
• Let go of illusions- notice if you’re clinging to unrealistic hopes or ignoring red flags, and start letting them go.
• Work through old fears- face things you’ve avoided, even if it feels uncomfortable.
• Practice meditation or mindfulness- it’s a good way to stay grounded if you’re feeling spacey or anxious.
• Trust your gut- intuition can be strong now, even if logic feels foggy.
• Take extra care with decisions- double-check facts, don’t believe every rumor, and watch out for scams.
• Reach out for support- if things feel overwhelming, talk to someone you trust.
• Accept that not everything’s clear right now- it’s okay to not have all the answers during this shift.

What’s Interesting About Transit Pluto Semisquare Neptune?

• Increased Psychic Vulnerability – According to Grant Lewi in Astrology for the Millions (1940), a hard aspect between Pluto and Neptune, like the semisquare, can make someone unexpectedly sensitive to psychic impressions, sometimes feeling haunted by premonitions or odd dreams that are hard to shake.
• Complicated Escapism – From Charles E.O. Carter’s The Astrology of Accidents (1932): Pluto’s contact with Neptune can stir up a kind of unseen “urge to escape,” but not in obvious ways. People might find themselves pulled toward obscure hobbies, or forming infatuations with strange philosophies or spiritual fads. The semisquare especially can create tensions that make healthy escape tricky.
• Disturbance in Mass Consciousness – From Dane Rudhyar’s The Astrology of Transformation (1978, referencing earlier work): Pluto’s minor hard aspects to Neptune suggest a period where people feel “swept along by uncanny collective moods,” picking up on societal fears and movements, sometimes feeling slightly out of step with the times.
• Allure of the Taboo – Isabel Hickey in Astrology: A Cosmic Science (1970) discusses Pluto-Neptune links as awakening interest in the “forbidden” or socially frowned-upon topics. The semisquare can create a low-key, background curiosity about secrets, conspiracies, or mystical tales.
• Muddled Transformations – According to Marc Edmund Jones’ Horary Astrology (1943), this transit can bring on states where your intuition feels off, making it easy to misread subtle signs during times of transition. Sometimes you might act on a deep feeling that later turns out to be a mirage.
• Secret or Hidden Losses – Ernest Grant’s Astrology and the Aquarian Age (1936) ties minor Neptune-Pluto aspects to “the sharply felt but unseen loss”- unexpected fading away of relationships, ideas, or even memory, often below the level of full awareness.
• Unusual Sensitivity to Pollution or Toxins – In Ivy Goldstein-Jacobson’s Astrological Timing of Critical Illness (1969), hard Pluto-Neptune triggers can sometimes make folks extra sensitive to environmental factors- chemical sensitivities, mysterious allergies, or odd food reactions that come and go during the transit.
• Mystical Doubt or Disappointment – In Paul Clancy’s Astrology: Your Place Among the Stars (1937), a difficult Pluto aspect to Neptune is said to shake your faith in spiritual ideas, leaving you a bit disillusioned about spiritual leaders or cosmic promises that don’t pan out as hoped.

Experiencing Transit Pluto Semisquare Neptune

When Pluto makes a semisquare to your natal Neptune, things can get weird fast. It’s not a dramatic clash like Pluto square or opposition, but it’s definitely uncomfortable- like having a splinter you can’t quite see but really feel. The world might seem foggier, dreams become stronger (and stranger), and you could start noticing odd cravings or obsessions that don’t make much sense. Subtle power dynamics float up in your friendships or at work, and there’s this sense that everyone (including you) is hiding something. The energy isn’t super loud, but if you pay attention, you’ll pick up that something under the surface wants to shift.

Challenges During This Transit

• Confusion and Deception: It’s easy to get tricked by others or even by your own wishful thinking. You might trust the wrong people or end up believing in something just because you want it to be true, not because it actually is.
• Feeling Lost: Old goals or dreams suddenly seem pointless or too out of reach. You might feel unmoored- like your faith, spiritual practice, or creative inspiration is slipping away.
• Addictions or Escapism: Anything that’s been your comfort (food, Netflix, alcohol, old habits) could become more tempting now, especially if you’re looking for a way to tune out the unsettling vibes.
• Vague Fear or Anxiety: You might not know what you’re scared of, but you feel it anyway. Nightmares, paranoia, or just a general sense that something’s “off” can be part of the experience.
• Spiritual Disillusionment: If you’ve relied on a particular belief system or spiritual community, you could discover disappointing truths, hypocrisy, or just get bored or jaded with the whole thing.

Opportunities During This Transit

• Radical Self-Awareness: Pluto’s energy can help you peer into your subconscious. You might uncover why certain fantasies or fears have been driving you all along- and finally start to heal old wounds.
• Shedding Illusions: It can be painful to realize when you’ve been fooling yourself, but this transit is a great time to let go of dreams or beliefs that aren’t helping you grow.
• Creative Power: Your imagination is wild under this transit- so channel it! Art, writing, music, or even making vision boards can give structure to all the foggy feelings.
• Deeper Intuition: Even though things are confusing, you can tap into flashes of insight or gut feelings that feel more “right” than usual. Meditation or journaling can help you tune into this.
• Transforming Spiritual Practice: Out with the old- if your faith or spirituality is changing, use this time to experiment. Try new forms of meditation, different teachers, or explore philosophies you ignored before.
