When Intuition Goes Bad
by Nic Gaudette
We all go through periods where our intuition isn’t the best. Wires get crossed, and we get the wrong message. We may have difficulty tapping into our intuition or we get an overload of messages that we don’t know how to sift through. Astrologically, you can see when those periods may occur and get an idea of how to handle them.
The planet ruling intuition is Neptune, so the first place to look at is your natal Neptune. You’ll want to track hard aspects made to your Neptune. Aspects are when two points are at certain distances away from each other by the transit or moving planets. The hard aspects are the square (3 signs away), opposition (6 signs away or in the exact opposite position), and the conjunction (in the same exact spot).
Aspects by transit Sun, Mercury, Venus and Mars will be short-lived since they move quickly, and you only have to worry about them impacting your intuition for a few days. All you need to cope with these aspects is a little patience. The Moon moves even faster, touring all twelve zodiac signs in less than one month, so transit Moon aspects only last for a few hours. However, the transit Moon will make hard aspects to your natal Neptune several times every month, which the other planets won’t do, and the few hours those aspects are in effect can be very difficult intuitively. It can even be uncomfortable to tap into your intuitive side. If the aspects occur in the middle of the night, you can have stronger dreams, insomnia or even nightmares.
The outer planets of Jupiter, Saturn, Uranus, Neptune and Pluto move slower, so their impact can be much greater. Hard transit Jupiter aspects to your natal Neptune can make you lazier with your intuition, and you purposefully avoid listening to your intuition, so you have to resist that urge. You can also experience a flooding of intuitive messages with Jupiter, and this requires you to sift through them. Zone in on the message that’s strongest and ditch the rest to avoid getting overwhelmed.
