The Mars-Neptune 2020 Conjunction In Pisces Is About Transmuting Light
In addition to the collective vibration you're currently experiencing in between eclipses, there's another cosmic event happening on Saturday, June 13. Mars and Neptune will join forces in the transcendental sign of Pisces, which also happens to be Neptune's sign of rulership. Idealistic and universal, the Mars-Neptune 2020 conjunction in Pisces is all about tapping into your divine light and spirit.Celestial ruler of mystical Pisces, Neptune is symbolic of the divine feminine, while warrior-like Mars is a perfect embodiment of the sacred masculine. And while the thought of categorizing specific energies as "feminine" or "masculine" seems cringeworthy and stereotypical, there's a distinctive duality existing between both, especially when it comes to the ancient practice of astrology. For instance, whether you're referring to the four elements, (fire, earth, air, and water) or the three modalities (cardinal, fixed signs, and mutable signs), a unique fusion of both the divine feminine and sacred masculine is alive and well in all 12 signs of the zodiac.
The sacred masculine — embodied in the elements fire and air — is the physical energy you project into the world and in the third dimension. The divine feminine — governed by the elements earth and water — is synonymous to the energy that exists within and comes to live in the universal realm. Having said that, it's important to keep this in mind in order to fully understand the power of this rare conjunction.
Neptune In Pisces
Dreamy and elusive, Neptune is the planet of collective consciousness, dreams, transcendence, unity, and universal love. Again, it's no wonder this heavenly body governs Pisces, as it's incredibly in tune with the invisible realm. What's even more interesting is, the last time Neptune traveled through Pisces was about 250 years ago, between 1760 and 1785. If you think about the historical events that took place during this era — namely, the American revolution — you'll get a better idea of how powerful this celestial transit is.
Swimming through the all-encompassing waters of Pisces until 2025, Neptune will teach you how to cultivate your creative visions, powers of intuition, and divine light. Neptune in Pisces is selfless, idealistic, and symbolic of the unconditional love surrounding your highest being. Its ethereal essence serves as a reminder of the numinous frequencies all around you, as it brings you closer to your vivid imagination. You are a multidimensional being and it's time to use your ancient gifts for the good of mankind. The collective is counting on you.
Mars-Neptune 2020 Conjunction In Pisces
Aggressive and animalistic, the essence of Mars has absolutely nothing in common with Neptune's connection to source. The warrior planet governs everything from your aggressive impulses to your most carnal desires. And though Mars epitomizes the sacred masculine in every way, things automatically change when it's traveling through Pisces. So much so that Mars in Pisces is typically frowned upon, as both a transit and natal placement. However, what most people don't realize is that Mars in Pisces' infinite strength is just as selfless as it is mysterious. So if Mars takes action with vigor and passion, Mars in Pisces goes to war for the sake of mankind.
On Saturday, June 13, aggressive Mars will conjunct dreamy Neptune in its sign of rulership, Pisces. This rare event will be nothing short of extraordinary but as always, there's both a high frequency and a low frequency available to the collective. The good news is Mars will invigorate the essence of Neptune, which can ultimately inspire you to take necessary action in order to make your dreams become reality. Mystical and swirling with creativity, this combination of energies could almost seem too good to be true. On the dark side, however, Mars-Neptune in Pisces is prone to delusion and escapism, given its inhibitions with harsh realities.
To say this conjunction feels like a fantasy would be an understatement. It's extremely important to stay grounded and present during this time, as there's a fine line between an illusion and your current reality. Mars wants to help you fight for your ultimate fantasy, and Neptune knows no boundaries. Use this energy wisely without losing sight of what's right in front of you. And if you're in the practice of remembering your dreams, make sure you write them down. The universe wants to communicate with you and help you tap into your highest vibration. Open your heart and mind.
“Is this the real life…Is this just fantasy?” – Queen, “Bohemian Rhapsody”
That first line, and really the entire song, captures the essence of this placement in so many ways. After all, Mars conjunct Neptune in Pisces is the realization that our actions can create the reality of our lives, and therefore, we can create the life of our dreams with our actions…which makes it important for us to be aware of both how we are acting and what we are dreaming.
Neptune is the ruling planet of Pisces, and therefore is very much at home moving through its native sign – the sign of unconditional and Universal Love, compassion and selfless service, and idealism and imagination. Residing in its own home until 2025, this is the power of the visionary in the truest sense of the word, and creative power in all its forms will prove extraordinary, ruling over any other powers or influences in the whole of the Universe at this time.
The last time we were graced with Neptune in Pisces was approximately 250 years ago – roughly the years 1760 through 1785. Think about what was happening in history during that frame of time, and you get an idea of how profound the visionary power of this influence can be.
Mars in Pisces – as I discussed in a previous post – is taking actions to put ourselves first, making sure we have what we need to care for ourselves so we can be fully present to the Highest level of service we can provide to others. Mars in Pisces also enables us to take the initiative more than we usually would in being of selfless service to others. We may even be inclined to fight for the care and well-being of others.
Mars in Pisces is an annual occurrence, but the conjunction of Mars and Neptune isn’t a frequent transit, and this conjunction within the sign of Pisces is very rare. The combination of Mars and Neptune in Pisces creates an energy in which we are inspired to take assertive actions to make our most fantastic dreams and visions the manifest reality of our lives. Contrary to popular beliefs about Pisces energy, this combination is rarely a shrinking violet kind of vibe – this is some pretty powerful and forthright stuff. Dare I say, this Mars conjunct Neptune in Pisces energy can show up as Pisces energy at its forward best.
However, even in its forward best, Pisces can be a bit (or a lot) delusional. I mention that because if there is any downfall for Pisces, it’s its knack for romantic idealism and fantasy. The harsh practical realities of life don’t always sit well with Pisces – they are usually trying to hide or escape them rather than face or embrace them. Neptune and Pisces can take us into the realm of daydreams and fantasies – into the mirage of an ideal reality. And when Mars tries to act upon those mirages as if they are real, it often finds itself eating sand rather than drinking water. This is where the dark side of Pisces can show up – the victim or martyr shows up when Neptune in Pisces’ dream doesn’t come true.
The sad thing is that when we experience this kind of disappointment, we often fail to realize that we set ourselves up for it. And usually, it’s because we simply didn’t take the actions or steps we needed to take to make it or allow it to happen. Sometimes, we’ve taken actions…but the actions we took weren’t in alignment with our dreams and ended up taking us further away from our dreams and visions instead of closer to them (like the young man in the song who chose to take actions that left him feeling far away from who he knew he could be).
For example: Unless your dream mate is the mail person or the pizza delivery guy, you’re not going to meet the love of your life if you sit inside your house all day. Even if you’re online dating, at some point, in order to make it real, you have to take or allow for action to meet the person face-to-face in the flesh.
So it goes with the dynamic of Mars and Neptune conjunct in Pisces. This is your chance to take actions on your dreams. Mars gives us the passion and energy to take actions to make those dreams come true…but only if we create the circumstances so that the ideal can be brought into reality.
Consider your biggest dreams and visions for your life through the following questions:
- What do I really want for myself and my life – the big picture summary/outcome? What do I envision for my life? What do I envision for my community or for the world? (A simple answer, probably summed up in one or two sentences.)
- When I ask myself what I really want, if that list is more than 10 items long, which of the qualities or characteristics are truly “must-haves”?
- Are these items on my list things that I really want, or are they things other people in or around my life want for me or for themselves? (It’s important for them to be your own for you to be truly happy with the outcome(s).)
- Am I prepared to take whatever actions are necessary for me to manifest this vision into reality? Am I willing to do my part to put myself in the path of the manifestation of my dreams?
- Am I willing to step into my vision to have what I dream truly become my reality? Do I really want this to be real for me?
That last question always makes me chuckle a bit because you’d be amazed at how many of us say that we want our dreams to come true, but then refuse to take the actions because we are afraid of how our lives will change if we actually get what we want. It leads us to the crucial questions of the whole Mars conjunct Neptune in Pisces experience:
- How does what I say I want fit into the lifestyle I envision for myself?
- Does that action help or align with my vision for my life, or does it destroy, hinder, or change that vision?
(Note: If it doesn’t align with your envisioned course/direction or if it changes your course altogether, you may want to consider that it may not really what you want for yourself OR that you may really be envisioning a major change of direction for your life.)
That is the creative power of Mars conjunct Neptune in Pisces. Through intentional action rooted in your dreams and visions, you really do have the power to change your individual lifestyle. And through the changes you make for your own life, you also hold the ability to change the world around you and the world as a collective whole. Mars conjunct Neptune in Pisces can bring forth proof of a basic tenant of Universal Truth – your actions really do have an impact on everything and everyone around you, and that everyone and everything around you has an impact on you as well.
You can dictate the terms of those effects. All you need to do is to choose how you take action in the face of your dreams and visions and the life choices they present to you. Do you want your dreams to be real, or to remain dreams?
The choice is up to you. How much do you really want it to be real?
You can work with the energy of this transit for a couple more days. Its effects will have power February 2nd through February 6th, 2013 (the conjunction was exact at 12:56p PST today). Do your best to make the most of this amazing energy – take your first (or next) steps toward the life of your dreams today!
Thanks for reading and sharing. Until next post…

Tania Gabrielle: 20:20 Neptune-Sun-Mars Awakeningby ForeverUnlimited |
There are times when a slow-moving planet like Neptune receives a celestial boost.
One of those moments has arrived:
- Neptune at 20° Pisces is being squared by the Sun at 20° Gemini right now, opening up a powerful quadruple 20:20:20:20 portal.
- On Saturday, June 13, Mars and Neptune are conjunct at 20° Pisces (more on this powerful conjunction here).
Mars represents fire - your drive, ambition, originality, instinct and physical energy.
The Sun, our star, nourishes your inner Light and instills confidence.
Neptune represents our spiritual nature, compassion, unconditional love and unity.
In Pisces, Neptune’s home sign AND the sign of the Piscean age that is ending now, this week marks an important juncture.
As the Sun and Mars activate Neptune, we are being challenged to release.
It’s important to take a time-out from hard work since SPIRIT needs your attention.
Your inner voice is calling you.
Hold space for serenity and silence for the next few days.
Take extra time to rest.
Listen to uplifting, soothing, inspiring music.
Tune into your ethereal, mystical nature.
Surround yourself with beauty - and lavish your attention on all that is tender and beautiful.
Embrace the exquisite.
Your Soul feels soothed when you disconnect from stress, and are just grateful for what is.
If you neglect your creativity and your imagination, you may get out of sync, feel depleted and disillusioned.
So make a major commitment to your imagination.
Feel free to Daydream.
Go out and bask in the beauty of nature.
Appreciate Earth and her blessings.
This profound change from the Piscean age to Aquarian age is in full force.
The transition is inviting you to leave behind the familiar and TRUST in the unfamiliar.
Rest assured, your Intuition will guide you every step of the way!
Just allow yourself to be guided.
Be in beauty.
Love and Blessings,
Tania Gabrielle
