Aspects
Mercury Square Neptune
Your mind and your imagination do not always agree: thinking gets foggy, focus slips, you forget or misremember, idealize the facts, or are easily fooled and prone to wishful logic. The same sensitivity, worked, becomes a clear, imaginative, intuitive intelligence. The work is checking facts, writing things down, and telling the real from the wished-for. At your best you turn the fog into vivid imagination grounded in truth.
Lean in — Check the facts and write things down to clear the fog.
Watch for — Let wishful logic stand in for what is actually true.
