When Jupiter forms a square with Neptune, as it does now, something inside you begins to see through the illusions you have been living with—especially the ones built on dreams that looked beautiful in your imagination but never felt solid in reality.
This is the kind of influence that slowly sharpens your view of the blurred lines you once accepted, where someone’s potential stood in for presence, or where your vision of what something could become kept you tied to what it actually never was.
You begin to understand that some of the stories you have been telling yourself were shaped more by hope than by truth, more by the idea of someone than by the way they have actually shown up.
This is the kind of moment that pulls you in deep, like the way your body tenses during a conversation that leaves you confused, or how your mind begins drifting in the middle of a plan you used to be excited about. You begin to feel it in the way your energy dips after texting someone who once made you feel seen, or in how your heart feels heavy when you think about a goal you used to chase with everything you had.
The unraveling begins with doubt, with small discomforts, with emotional tension that builds under the surface until you finally stop pretending everything still makes sense.
Jupiter brings expansion and Neptune brings vision. When they clash like this, your inner world starts to grow too big for anything that cannot stand on real ground. The illusions begin to stretch, and then tear. You might start remembering what someone promised you and notice how little of it ever turned into anything real. You might realize that you have spent the past few months—or maybe even years—trying to keep something going that only ever gave you glimpses of the connection you needed. And in those realizations, something begins to shift. You begin to take your energy back from the places you gave it too freely and begin to see that the fantasy was never going to turn into something stable, no matter how hard you tried to believe in it.
The last time this square hit was in September 2019, and the next will not come until January 2032. That makes this moment one that holds weight. You are standing in a stretch of time where the truth feels louder than the excuses you have used to explain someone else’s silence, or your own hesitation, or the way your life feels more like something to manage than something you live with clarity and choice.
This is where the waiting fades and clarity finally takes hold. When something survives only through your effort, when your energy keeps a connection alive that never grows or deepens, it becomes clear that you have been carrying too much alone.
You begin to understand that hoping someone will grow into who you imagined no longer feels like love—it feels like delay. You reach the moment where protecting their potential costs you too much, and from here, you choose diffferently.
This square brings a quiet but strong correction. You look at what you have been maintaining and begin to ask why. Why do you keep returning to conversations that never go deeper? Why do you keep offering your time to someone who never plans anything solid? Why do you keep chasing a vision that only makes sense in theory but drains your spirit in practice?
The answers may be hard to sit with. You may see where you have ignored your own needs, where you’ve played the role of being patient, low-maintenance, endlessly understanding, just to avoid conflict or disappointment. You may realize how much you have given without asking for anything clear in return, how long you’ve waited for something to begin while pretending it already had.
But once you see it, you cannot go back to the illusion. You cannot unhear the voice inside that says, “This does not support me anymore.” You cannot keep building a life around someone else’s hesitation or an outdated goal that no longer reflects your values. You begin to understand that your peace matters more than potential, and your clarity matters more than the comfort of pretending everything still fits.
This is a release that comes with grief, yes—but also with relief. You begin to see how much space gets freed up when you stop trying to fix something that keeps breaking in the same place. You begin to trust that what is falling away now is making room for what will meet you fully, without confusion, without conditions.
You might feel this in your relationships, your career path, your creative life, or the way you have been treating your own time. Wherever it is felt, it brings the same invitation: to stop pushing for something to become what it keeps refusing to be, and to instead step back, get honest, and start moving in the direction of what feels honest, what feels grounded, and what gives back as much as you give it.
You are not wrong for hoping, or weak for wanting to believe in something more. But now you see clearly, and you understand the cost of staying in limbo when your life is asking for movement.
This is the kind of astrology that brings you back to yourself— the version that says, “I want something that works. I want something I can trust. I want something I do not have to chase.”

With just under two weeks before Mercury enters its shadow phase on June 29, this is the perfect time to take care of the practical things that help your life run smoothly, and Mars moving through Virgo gives you the perfect energy to do just that.
This combination of influences is ideal for fixing what has been overlooked, organizing the pieces of your day that have become messy, and making sure the details you depend on will continue to work without causing stress later.
As Mercury also rules Virgo, anything left unfinished or disorganized will soon become more obvious, more frustrating, and harder to manage, especially once things begin to move out of order.
This is a good time to start by paying attention to your technology, especially the items you use every day, because once Mercury begins to slow down, issues with communication and electronics tend to surface. Take time to check your phone, clean up your apps, back up your files, and update your computer so everything runs smoothly.
If your chargers are worn out, replace them now instead of waiting until they stop working at the worst possible moment. If your internet has been cutting in and out, or if your tablet keeps freezing, handle those issues now while it is still easy to get them sorted. These kinds of simple repairs may seem small, but they can prevent far more stress once Mercury’s influence starts to complicate things.
This is also the right time to take a serious look at how you get around every day, whether you drive, bike, or take the train. If your car has been making a strange sound or flashing a warning light, it is worth taking it in for service before something more serious happens. If your tires feel low or your inspection is coming due, do not wait until you are forced to deal with it all at once. If you use public transportation, check your pass, load credit, and make sure your regular route has no changes or delays scheduled. If you usually rely on apps to guide your travel or help you navigate appointments, make sure those are functioning properly too.
Mars fuels action and Virgo creates focus, so together they offer a kind of help that makes everyday systems stronger, more reliable, and easier to maintain.
You can also use this time to look at your schedule with fresh eyes, especially if your days have started to feel rushed or disorganized. Take a look at the appointments you have already booked, and ask yourself if anything needs to be rescheduled, adjusted, or cancelled entirely.
If you have been meaning to book travel, finish paperwork, make a doctor’s appointment, or confirm your plans for the next few weeks, now is a good time to follow through while the energy supports careful preparation. Once Mercury slows down, it becomes easier for plans to fall through or for communication to go sideways, so anything you can finalize now will help reduce frustration later on.
It is also worth taking time to review your finances, even if things feel overwhelming or out of order, because Virgo energy supports small, simple improvements that begin to add up over time. Look through your recent transactions, notice any charges you did not expect, cancel the subscriptions you do not use, and organize your bills so you are not surprised when something comes due.
Your inbox and your messages deserve just as much care, especially if you have been putting off replies or letting things build up. Start with the most important conversations, respond to what you owe, cancel what no longer fits, and follow through on promises you made but never got around to. You do not need to answer everything at once, but if there are conversations that weigh on your mind every time you look at your phone or open your laptop, that is a good place to start. Mercury rules communication, and during its retrograde, delays and misunderstandings become more likely, so making space now helps protect you later.
Even your home can benefit from this kind of energy, because Mars in Virgo supports action, order, and functionality. Take time to clean out your refrigerator, restock your pantry with food that supports your energy, refill your health cabinet with items you trust, and fix anything around the house that has been bothering you, even if it only takes five minutes to resolve.
If your smoke detector keeps beeping or your favorite chair wobbles every time you sit down, those small irritations are easier to solve now than they will be in a few weeks, when it can feel like everything hits all at once. Virgo wants things to work, and Mars helps you do the work.
Your body will also speak more clearly during this time, especially if you have been pushing yourself through tiredness, skipping meals, or falling into patterns that leave you feeling drained. Virgo rules health, and Mars increases energy, so this is the right moment to bring more care to the basics that affect your well-being. Prepare meals that give you fuel rather than take it away.
Also, if you can, cut down on screen time, especially late at night if your sleep has been suffering. Turn off any devices that you do not need, and place them in another room.
Move your body in a way that helps you feel more connected rather than more exhausted. Book appointments you have delayed. Take the supplements you said you would try. Rest when your body asks for rest, and listen when something does not feel right.
These next eleven days are an opportunity to create more clarity, more order, and more trust in the systems that keep your life functional.
Mars in Virgo gives you the energy to act, but only on the things that matter. Mercury is already beginning to slow, and anything you clean up now becomes one less thing you will need to deal with once the pace of life shifts.
The action you take during this window will leave a lasting impact, and even small changes—when made with attention—can help you feel more supported, more prepared, and more in tune with what helps your life flow harmoniously.
