Chiron is 1° Pisces 52′ (minutes) on January 1, 2012 — and reaches 6° Pisces 1′ on January 1, 2013.
From our perspective the Galactic Center is 27° Sagittarius 1′ on January 1, 2012 — and reaches 27° Sagittarius 1′ 9″ (seconds) on January 1, 2013.
When the planets directional lines go back and forth in the above illustration, they’re indicating Direct (forward) motion and/or Retrograde 
(seemingly backward motion) throughout 2012.
2012 is the Chinese Year of the Dragon and begins on January 23, 2012 in the U. S.
- Solar Eclipse May 20–21 2012 at 0° Gemini 21′
- Partial Lunar Eclipse June 4, 2012 at 14° Sagittarius 14′
- Total Solar Eclipse November 13–14, 2012 at 21° Scorpio 57′
- Lunar Eclipse November 28, 2012 at 6° Gemini 47′
Notice that Neptune enters Pisces on February 3, 2012 (until April 2025). This is a very important energetic and consciousness shift in 2012 for everyone, but especially so if your Sun is in Pisces, or if you’ve got Pisces Rising (ASC), or have a Virgo Sun, or Virgo Rising. This sign change by Neptune—along with the final Saturn in Libra retrograde period from February 7 – June 22, 2012—is an important phase for everyone in 2012 with resolving duality in ourselves and becoming integrated, unified individually (Saturn in Libra retrograde). Neptune in Pisces will be helping each of us perceive, feel, see, experience and know Source/The All That Is and our Higher Selves in direct, personal and intimate ways; absolutely no religious or spiritual middlemen (priests, pastors, fathers, gurus, shamans, masters, healers etc.) required for us to make this direct mystical connection consciously.
During 2012 many of us will exit the old 3D system of 12 and enter the new 5D system of 13 where we are consciously aware of the fact that we are aspects of Source/The All That Is and we have an increasingly conscious working relationship with our Higher Selves and need no one to interpret or define reality for us.

/ January 17, 2012I’ve been thinking about Neptune often since you’ve written this entry. Besides Pisceans, and those with natal planets in the mutable signs (Gemini, Virgo, Sagittarius, and Pisces) who will have transiting Neptune conjunct, square or opposite natal planets, do you suppose those of us with natal Neptune aspects in our natal charts will feel this transit strongly, even if transiting Neptune does not make any significant contact with these natal planets?
Ready or not, I suppose it’s time for all of us to resolve those square and opposition aspects in our individual natal charts. The drama eloquently described in each chart will unfold, if we have not done the polarity resolution work Denise describes. Certainly, each part of this drama is unfolding in my own life–the drive for personal significance, the internal chastisement for placing so much emphasis upon rapidly disintegrating infrastructures, the subsequent paralysis. I hope Neptune in Pisces will help us dissolve old identities and beliefs, rather than launch us into further delusion. I suppose each potential exists, for us to choose.
Choice, unfortunately, is the scariest prospect for those who, like myself, are teetering on the edge of some precipice–the precipice of one reality or another. In this regard, I fear my negative Neptunian tendencies–I fear my imagination, my ability to dwell, dreamlike, in the landscape of lovely words, crafted by my own hand or another’s. I fear the spell I weave upon myself. Denise, will this tendency of “thriving in stupor glee,” as Lou Ann describes it, not become more pronounced in individuals who are prone to it? How does one integrate extreme polarities without letting either consume one utterly?

/ January 11, 2012Denise dear,
Is it safe to vent something I would like to express here… about Neptune in Pisces… and the Pisces I have to confront daily? My dad is a Pisces and yet he’s thriving in stupor glee and mad-crazy… in all areas of Life during this whole Ascension Phase… and this is becoming more and more vexing…
He’s very much like 3/144… the ego’s rants are all the same IMHO. I couldn’t bear reading much of it: I get it enough here at “home”.
He hoards his financial wealth while the rest of us have to find our way with or without it… loves to make others miserable on purpose…. and is a nasty verbal bully who throws tantrums every now and then… especially for Sundays when his wife no longer wants to go to church with him. Because the rest of us are women… he keeps reminding us through his tantrums… that he must be the one in control…
I haven not seen any change in my circle… especially him the patriarch and old religious beliefs in my family, so that I get to move on physically in my Life. I ought not to care about his evolution and learning… but he’s in my way from physical freedom. I don’t have the financial means to move to another location… so that I get to continue empowering myself… speak my Truth… have my voice… get to say what I really want to say/express… and part ways with someone who’s now at the total opposite pole of me.
Just today I overheard… in his conversation with a friend, whom he invited… about how he got to “train” me to do as he says… being broken to be trained (it sounded like)… and succeeded… because I was not allowed to touch anything in the house until I apologized for speaking my Truth. That really got to me. I would like… for once… to have MY power back in a non-ego, empowering way. I would like to tell my Dad… as a mature and evolved BEing… that he no longer has power over me… in ANY form of way… all because I no longer have to eat his food… borrow his old car… drink his filtered water… live under his roof… and all other things. I get to leave this place… and say my Truth again to him… with conviction and support from the Universe.
I would really like a breakthrough and break free from this Piscean father of mine… THIS year. I would like some form of closure on this. Would I EVER get to have my power back…? As for this line:
… I agree with Barbara: this speaks VOLUMES. I am living proof of that earlier phase: since 1999… I no longer go to the ol’ church anymore for answers… since 2006 I no longer go to anyone about god anymore… since 2008 I no longer go to ANY church/person whatsoever … even though it’s the “new Age” ones. I’ve been talking to my Higher Self for nearly 13 years now… and my HS is hinting to me that I’m only getting a spec of a grain of sand of experiencing my true God/dess self. My entire family still goes to either the Catholic or Anglican… and I’m SO fed up of that reality… it’s not funny anymore.
I’m SO ready for this breakthrough.
Love to all,
Lou Ann

/ January 11, 2012Hi, Denise,
I find it interesting that the Ewenki people in Siberia have a calendar with 13 months– which actually works out perfectly in terms of the number of days in a year to give us 13 months of 28 days each. The first time I read that, I was like, Yeah! That makes sense. Also the same as a woman’s monthly cycle. I wonder how the 12 month year came into being with odd numbers of days in the months? It’s actually not even logical. Perhaps it is related to the other machinations of control that have been imposed upon us. Perhaps we’ll go to a 13 month year as well– if we even still use this type of time in the future.
Hugs,
Cat

/ January 11, 2012Cat,
How ya doing sweetie?
Yeah the Dark/patriarchy not only got rid of the Goddess and Goddess consciousness when they took over the planet, they also intentionally distorted this natural Source-connected state and system represented by 13 and tweaked it into a chaotic and negative system of 12 for the sole purpose of making it profoundly difficult for humanity to consciously connect with Source, the Divine within physicality. Doing this (and so much more) made it easy for them to control humanity and direct consciousness on Earth for thousands of years. (One big clue about this deliberate distortion is the 12 physical human disciples plus Jesus as a divine outsider or 13th character. The 12 were trapped in a 3D system designed to do exactly that. This symbolic 13th spiritual person represents the original Divine system of 13 within physicality. This is why the Dark BS about the number 13 being “bad” or “unlucky”. The Dark wanted to keep humanity as far away from 13 — the Divine and original system — as they possibly could for as long as they could. Speaking of 13…this Friday is the 13th., Friday the 13th., so USE it for what it really is people; Friday – Venus and 13 – Divine. God/Goddess in Divine Unity.
But — and this is the best news in thousands of Earth years — when we complete 2012 and enter 2013 this intentional Dark distortion will be no more for the Earth and humanity that’s ascending/evolving.
Hugs,
Denise

/ January 13, 2012Hi, Denise,
I’m doing a lot better these days. It’s amazing what a little quiet will do for a person. The noise pollution caused untold stress and, now that I’ve gone on the offensive consistently, the guys upstairs seem to have gotten the message that I mean business and are being decent. But they’ve only been able to sustain that for a week to a week and a half at a time, so this weekend should be the cruncher to see if they’ll coexist peacefully or will have to go.
With the number 13 as well, in Mongolia it is a lucky number in divination. I wonder why it was allowed in that part of the world and not here. Also, Tania Gabrielle has an interesting post on Friday the 13th- Your Lucky Day today, which I’d like to share if you allow it. She seems to be right in sync with you on this.

/ January 11, 2012Hi Denise and All Here:
THE SENTENCE of the year! Wow, this is good news. I “feel” it coming I feel the excitement of this — lost for words here. It is this “conscious awareness” of connection to Source, and the living it and the knowing it that for me this whole ascension process has been and is about. Bring on the “knowing”! I feel a 5D party about to happen/happy! For the first time in years, I want, I mean really want a “working relationship!” Yippee, and thanks Denise. You’re the best.
Note to Tom: So glad to hear from you and glad too you’re having fun. I liked the “Gasp” bit!
Love to All Here, B.

/ January 11, 2012Denise, this may be a bit simplistic of me, but wouldn’t those with planets in the first few degrees of Pisces primarily be the ones affected by this Neptune transit? I am aware that the practice and study of astrology itself may change with the coming shift, but my mind cannot grasp using such large orbs for outer planets. Will everyone with important points or planets anywhere within the sign of Pisces be affected to such a strong degree?
Denise
/ January 11, 2012balsamicmoon,
You’re right of course. With Neptune moving so slowly it will affect those people with early degrees of Pisces and Virgo (and Gemini and Sagittarius with a square) long before and much more strongly. As Neptune moves deeper into Pisces more and more people will have Neptune come within range (orb) to whatever natal planet, planets, angles etc. and activate those natal aspects and energies. I was just making a fast and easy blanket statement because I won’t get into in-depth astrology reports. I can barely do it anymore with the Ascension related material!
As you may remember I have very early Pisces ASC so transiting Neptune is already conjuncting my ASC from the 12th. After having Saturn, Chiron, Uranus, and Neptune transit through my 12th house during the almost thirteen years of my biological Ascension Process, I’m VERY ready for them to make the major shift out of my 12th and into my 1st; especially Neptune
My basement is clean…bring on a whole new level of Neptunian awareness and spiritual mysticism!
Keep in mind/heart Beth that this is 2012 and the twenty-fifth year of the Ascension Process (cosmic transit) and that the planets affect us differently now than they did prior to the start of this process. I sense that, as more and more people evolve/ascend out of their old 3D ego-based Solar Plexus and left-brain consciousness and into their 5D High Heart base, they will/are increasingly feeling the new astrological Age energies of Aquarius/Uranus and Leo/Sun. There’s more of a fifth dimensional collective or Aquarian Group type consciousness happening finally where more people will feel and be affected by the outer planets in far more individual and intimate ways than they ever could prior to the Ascension. As humanity transitions out of it’s 3D ego, Solar Plexus and left-brain and up into its 5D High Heart, the outer planets will, I feel, simply become inner planets as well and that’s a great thing!
Hugs,
Denise
