Transit Uranus Sesquisquare Natal Neptune

“Shaky dreams and sudden intuition”

Here’s what to do and not do when you have a Uranus Sesquisquare Neptune transit. Below that are some interesting things about this transit.

Avoid During This Transit

• Don’t ignore reality or get lost in daydreams- it’s easy to get confused or misled right now.
• Avoid making big decisions based on sudden inspiration or “gut feelings” without checking the facts first.
• Don’t start risky financial ventures or gamble. Things aren’t as stable as they seem during this transit.
• Try not to dive into escapist habits like excessive drinking, drug use, or binge-watching TV to avoid problems.
• Don’t trust every new idea or person you meet- people might not be clear about their intentions.
• Avoid ignoring your instincts when something feels “off.” Trust your inner warning signals.
• Don’t overcommit to new spiritual practices or cult-like groups; you might be more impressionable now.
• Don’t run away from responsibilities or try to “escape” reality, even if life feels overwhelming.
• Try not to start big creative projects unless you’re clear on the details- it’s easy to lose focus or direction now.
• Avoid spreading rumors or jumping to conclusions. Misunderstandings are common during this period.

Do During This Transit

• Explore new creative hobbies or artistic projects- even the weird or experimental stuff.
• Journal your dreams and pay attention to gut feelings; your intuition might spark cool ideas.
• Question old beliefs or fantasies that aren’t working for you anymore.
• Try some gentle meditation or mindfulness practices to ride out any confusing feelings.
• Let yourself daydream, but keep one eye on reality so you don’t get lost in what-ifs.
• Set boundaries around escapism- notice if you’re avoiding something important.
• Embrace unexpected inspiration, even if it doesn’t make sense right away.
• Stay open to changes in your spiritual path; it’s a good time to learn about new philosophies.
• Talk to trusted friends or mentors about confusing emotions or visions- they might help ground you.
• Let go of old illusions and make room for a more authentic version of yourself to emerge.

What’s Interesting About This Transit

• Distorted Dreams & Illusions (Sibly’s Celestial Philosophy, 1842):
  Some older astrologers, like Ebenezer Sibly, saw hard Uranus-Neptune aspects as times when “phantasms of the spirit world” bleed into waking life. They warned you might be extra vulnerable to strange daydreams or fall for wild schemes.
• Sudden Clairvoyance & Premonitions (Raphael’s Manual of Astrology, 1861):
  Under the Uranus sesquisquare Neptune, Raphael (aka Robert Cross Smith) suggested that your “interior vision” could activate in fits and starts, resulting in unexpected flashes of psychic insight, even if you don’t normally consider yourself intuitive.
• Peculiar Friendships (Zadkiel’s Legacy; Astrology Simplified, 1869):
  Richard Morrison, writing as Zadkiel, mentioned these awkward Uranus-Neptune links as times when “unearthly conjunctions” may push you into friendships or partnerships with people who feel somehow odd, fated, or out of step with the world.
• Unstable Faith (The Astrologer of the Nineteenth Century, 1825):
  This old book, attributed to ‘Merlin’, tells of Uranus-Neptune friction resulting in wavering beliefs; a person may “abandon one system of thought for another, yet thereafter regret its loss.”
• Disrupted Sleep, Strange Visions (Broughton’s Elements of Astrology, 1898):
  In Luther Broughton’s view, a tough Uranus aspect to Neptune could mean “sleep may be harassed by visions or nocturnal wanderings, sometimes interpreted as ghostly visitations.”
• Sudden Changes in Mobility at Sea (A Manual of Astrology by William Lilly, later editions):
  While Lilly didn’t use Uranus, later astrologers applying his methods noted that challenging Uranus-Neptune times could affect “voyages by water, sudden changes or accidents at sea, or unusual happenings on or near the ocean.”
• Inventive yet Elusive Artistic Inspiration (Sepharial’s New Manual of Astrology, 1898):
  Sepharial (Walter Gorn Old) suggested that Uranus stimulating Neptune might trigger “original but ephemeral” surges of inspiration- artistic ideas seem genius in the moment but prove hard to pin down later.
• Strange Healing Experiences (The Book of the Stars, by O.H. Walgate, 1862):
  Walgate linked Uranus-Neptune friction with periods when “quack remedies and miraculous cures” circulate more widely; you might hear of or feel tempted by eccentric healing methods.
• Feeling ‘Out of Place’ in Society (Raphael’s Guide to Astrology, 1877):
  Another Raphael text talks about feeling “unfitted for the common ways of the world”- you might suddenly not relate to normal routines or find it hard to understand why everyone else just goes along.

Experiencing This Transit

When Uranus forms a sesquisquare (that’s a 135-degree angle) to your natal Neptune, it’s kinda like suddenly being tossed into waters that are both foggy and electrified. Unexpected stuff can come up that messes with how you’re seeing the world, your dreams, and your sense of what’s real versus what’s fantasy.

You might notice your imagination kicks into overdrive. Stuff you’d usually dismiss suddenly seems super possible- or even urgent. It can feel like ideas or hunches pop in from nowhere. Sometimes you might get flashes of inspiration, creative downloads, or weird dreams that feel more real than your actual day-to-day life.

But things can also get really confusing. Plans unravel, people act unpredictably, and you might be left wondering if you’re making mountains out of molehills or missing the point entirely. There’s a restlessness in your soul, maybe a craving to break out of routines through something mystical, artistic, or even a bit rebellious.

Challenges during this transit

• Confusion or lack of clarity: You might find it hard to separate facts from wishful thinking, whether that’s with relationships, work projects, or even your own long-term goals.
• Weird attractions to odd philosophies or quirky spiritual paths: You might get drawn to unusual spiritual ideas or communities that don’t really fit you, or go all-in on a big dreamy goal that’s not actually realistic.
• Sudden disillusionment: If you’ve been holding onto fantasies or if there are secrets in your life, this transit could throw them up into the light in a shocking way.
• Unpredictable moods and inspiration: Your emotions might swing fast, and your creative flow could be all over the place- super high one week, totally gone the next.
• Escapist urges: It’s tempting to zone out with TV, games, fantasies, or even substances, especially if reality feels overwhelming.

Opportunities during this transit

• Creative breakthroughs: Your imagination is supercharged, so this is an awesome time for music, art, poetry, or just seeing life in new and surprising ways.
• Discovering new spiritual truths: If you stay grounded, you can access sudden, almost magical insights about yourself and the universe. Meditation, tarot, or dream journaling might yield surprising results.
• Challenging old illusions: You get a rare chance to spot where you’ve been lying to yourself, where you need more freedom, or where it’s time to update your beliefs about what’s possible.
• Inventiveness and innovation: If you work in tech, science, or the arts, you might come up with ideas or solutions that feel completely original or ahead of their time.
• Learning to flow with uncertainty: By embracing not-knowing, you can develop better intuition, resilience, and maybe even start trusting the process instead of needing to control everything.
