Look forward to explorations - imaginary or physical. Keep tabs on time as you immerse in chit chat, books, games, movies and online world. You may feel pulled in new spiritual directions. Listen to what a mentor or teacher has to offer. A father or father figure may play a role in building up your joy and enthusiasm. Maybe you are feeling a shade out of sorts today. If you are feeling stressed or confused, try meditation or prayer. You may feel stuck in a rut. Before you act, engage in some real contemplation of yourself and your goals. Take your time and follow your heart.

You might want to leave a trail of breadcrumbs to follow back from the daydreams that will be the hallmark of the next five months. Today, nebulous Neptune turns retrograde in your twelfth house of fantasy and illusion until December 12. This can be a boon to creative and spiritual pursuits, like revving up your meditation practice or recording an album. But the trickster planet is infamous for confusing dreams and reality and causing us to project our hopes AND fears. So be careful not to venture too far from terra cognita.
