Neptune in your 9th house draws you to spiritual or artistic ideas and to faraway places. Check the facts behind anything that sounds too inspiring. Its stay in Aries runs to 21 May 2038. It is retrograde until 12 December.
Pluto in your 7th house brings intense one-to-one relationships and questions of power inside them. Partnerships change at the root. Pluto leaves Aquarius on 8 March 2043.
