Neptune Conjunct Mercury
© 2004 Curtis Manwaring
Transiting Neptune conjunct your natal Mercury. This is a time when misunderstandings in your communications are likely. Be careful in any contractual negotiations; that you understand the terms and that the other party understands you. Also be careful about the truthfulness of any communication you receive as others may be trying to deceive you. You may be a victim of identity theft or fall victim to fraud if not careful. Double entendre may be more prevalent in the way you speak or listen. You may develop an interest in music, poetry or literature (particularly fantasy novels).

If Mercury is lord of your 1st house, you may have trouble expressing yourself in a coherent manner. Other people may tend to misunderstand what you say. What you say often has a double meaning.
If lord of the 2nd, be very careful not to be swindled. Fraud is possible in your accounts now so keep a close watch.
If lord of the 3rd, you may be subject to alot of detours while doing errands. Relatives, siblings and neighbors tend to misunderstand you. You often have a hard time explaining yourself.
If lord of the 4th, be careful signing any leases or deeds or in dealings regarding real estate. Misrepresentation of the value of property is more likely.
If lord of the 5th, it is a good time to express yourself through music or poetry as your imagination and creativity in this area are higher.
If lord of the 6th, be careful about health problems that crop up now. Health issues tend to be neurological in origin at this time.
If lord of the 7th, be careful in all matters related to contract negotiations and business partnerships. Communication in marriage may be problematic.
If lord of the 8th, papers related to tax or finance may be lost or stolen. Be careful to guard yourself against identity theft.
If lord of the 9th, you may be attracted to the mystical side of life more than usual. Legal dealings may be under a cloud of confusion.
If lord of the 10th, you may be slandered in public or suffer calumny. Your public image is misunderstood and takes on a life of it's own. Scandal in career is possible.
If lord of the 11th, you have a harder time reading other people's body language. Acquaintances may not be truthful to you as often as you'd like.
If lord of the 12th, your imagination is heightened. Your focus isn't sharp, and you have a tendency to daydream. Good for indulging in escapist literature.
