Neptune Retrograde

by PRAMA CHOPRA | Jun 1, 2023

Neptune retrograde is an astrological phenomenon in which the planet Neptune appears to move backward in its orbit as observed from Earth. Neptune is associated with spirituality, dreams, illusions, and the subconscious mind. When Neptune goes into retrograde, its energy is believed to turn inward, emphasizing introspection, self-reflection, and the exploration of our inner world.

During Neptune retrograde, which occurs annually for approximately five to six months, it is believed that we are called to examine our spiritual and emotional lives more deeply. This period can be a time of heightened sensitivity, intuition, and the uncovering of illusions or delusions that may have been clouding our perception.

Neptune retrograde invites us to reflect on our dreams, ideals, and aspirations, and to discern between fantasy and reality. It encourages us to dive into our subconscious and explore the hidden depths of our emotions, fears, and desires. It is a time for spiritual introspection, creative exploration, and seeking clarity in matters of faith and spirituality.

During Neptune retrograde, it is important to stay grounded, practice discernment, and be aware of potential tendencies towards escapism or self-deception. It is a period for inner reflection, healing, and aligning with our true spiritual path.

To find specific dates for Neptune retrograde in a particular year, it is recommended to consult an astrological calendar or refer to astrology websites that provide accurate retrograde information based on your location and time zone.
