Daily aspects
extile Neptune (Capricorn) During this transit, time should be taken out to visit any relatives, or friends, that are currently in hospital, old age homes, or institutions. You will feel very charitable, and should spend time volunteering at animal shelters, and giving your time at soup kitchens. You will feel very close to your female friends, and may even be attracted to them. It is a perfect time for creative expression. Spending time on the beach will bring a lot of joy and relaxation, especially meditating there at sunrise.
When Venus is in Sagittarius, our ideal being awakens. We have strong self-confidence, a lot of intuition, and a well-groomed mind. We have strong religious feelings, are optimistic, generous, and warm. Our love for travel and country life, as well as our love for the sport, awakens. When it comes to love, we're always on the hunt. We are longing for lasting love, but during this time, we tend to idealize short-lived and hasty ties.
This transit can cause you to be depressed, and search for low-level forms of enjoyment, such as watching intimate acts online. You may hook up with others for intimate pleasure, to make you feel better about yourself and desired. It's important to use protection at all costs. Violent outbursts of emotion can affect relationships during this time. Women may want to change things about you, and you could get involved in tax affairs, as well as the affairs of other people's money.
