This aspect has a noticeable but not overpowering influence on your experiences. This interaction between Mercury and Neptune is present and can be felt in your life, but it doesn’t dominate your overall chart.
When transiting Mercury forms a square aspect with natal Neptune, it creates an atmosphere where clarity and precision in communication might be elusive. Mercury governs thought processes, communication, and intellectual pursuits while Neptune rules imagination, dreams, and intuition. The square aspect is known for its challenging nature, often bringing tension and conflict between the energies of the two planets involved. During this transit, mental fogginess can become prevalent; making decisions or conveying ideas clearly can prove difficult.This planetary alignment tends to blur the lines between reality and fantasy. Misunderstandings may arise more frequently as perceptions are clouded by idealism or wishful thinking. There is a heightened susceptibility to deception—either being deceived by others or engaging in self-deception. Creativity might surge but there could be difficulty distinguishing practical ideas from unrealistic ones. Sensitivity to subtler realms increases; intuitive insights are strong yet discerning their validity requires caution during this period of confusion brought on by the Mercury-Neptune square transit.
