Getting Honestly Lost, Because its Honest: A Funny Thing Happened on the way to Knowhere

While Issues of Pluto and Saturn seem to predominate the fixations of our media all summer (mostly because power sex lies and cold hard cash make for good copy)  there are 2 other stories that we as mystical reporters should be keying into all summer! Uranus (who is about change, revolution equality reason and the march of the new.  And paradoxically, Neptune (set over the mystical the transcendental and the undefinable).  And while it may be tempting to fall into the big "adult" worlds insistence that being caught up on the serious definable and worrisome, is the only responsible thing to do, I am here to tell you quite the opposite.  

All of these things are happening because the way we assume to be the responsible things to do, are in fact not.  In fact if we allow ourselves to simply follow the current of the big narrative, we find ourselves so well informed of our exact position, that we will never find our way out of it.  
I will undoubtedly return to both the subject of Neptune and Uranus over and over this summer (as well as Pluto and Saturn) but at this time, really, really, its time to focus on Neptune, which usually feels a lot like going completely out of focus.
In essence we find ourselves in a spot where we must get ourselves honestly lost so we can determine what it is to be honestly found!
Enter Neptune!

 Rather than chronicle every fascinating way that Neptune is playing with us right now and for days to come, I thought perhaps just a bit of advice and well wishes.

This is a time to explore, not to claim.  This is a time to listen, not define.  When you try to grasp you may retain nothing.  It is not a time for that kind of growth or that kind of learning... Rather it is a grand Beautiful moment to open to possibility, reject assumption, and allow for a knowing that supersedes and is ultimately greater than the mind.

How does one find such a thing one might ask?  Traditionally I believe its 3rd star from the left and straight on till morning.  Or possibly 3 loops  widderschynnes (pronounced /wid-der-shins/ fancy old word for counter-clockwise) around the standing stones.  You might also find the right hole in a stone, and if you go at just the right time (and all-things considered this may well be it!) it might let you through.  Or you could wander till you find the most mysterious fog, set your course and walk into it.  For this journey plans will simply not do.  Neither will mind nor wit.  
The best directions are the following:
Stay open and relax.  Make no plans.  Follow your gut.  You'll know when your on the right track, and if you think your almost to the destination you aren't even on the right path.  You are already there, and you will never be further.
Sound Cryptic? Esoteric?
GOOD.
Now stop thinking about it, you'll never get any closer that way!
(and remember: It's supposed to be fun)

"I enter into unknowing, as someone who knows where they are going, that is, nowhere!  And I'm going as fast as I can, because its the best place to be.  Because it is the place where I can always find myself.  I reject the road-maps either assumed in my head or given to me, I wish to be  an honest fool, just as the Wisest of all Athens!"
