Astrology Will Impact Long Distance Love This Fall

By Lou Raedwulfe


The start of fall brings warmth to the heart, images of sun-kissed memories by the ocean, and the heat and passion of hot summer nights are our fondest of memories. As the impact of social media continues to explode across the globe, long distance romances have increased dramatically. Facebook, MySpace, Twitter, and a host of other outlets have brought people together from locations far and wide. As plans to finally meet, or to reconnect as part of the long awaited fall vacation are made, astrological forces are in play that may make this last quarter of the year of love a lot more chaotic than might be first imagined.

Neptune, the Sea King, began its retrograde dance on June 7, as mentioned in a previous article. Importantly, while this is occurring, Mercury will begin another and final retrograde on Oct. 21. The implications of these astrological events on earthly affairs of the heart are most certainly worth noting.

Be careful not to rush into romance at the drop of a hat. Stop and consider that things might be going too fast, even though you may feel that the love of your life has just dropped into your scene. Just take things slower than you normally would. Long-distance relationships will be affected by Neptune in retrograde and later by Mercury in retrograde, so, take it one step at a time for a couple of months when reality will become more clear.

Yet, during the Neptune retrograde period, the Neptunian influence can take on a far different aspect in affairs of the heart. With space and time a factor, as is the case for many long distance internet relationships, the negative aspects of Neptune come in to play far too often. Emotions become clouded and delusions over take us as to the reality of things can result in our choosing to ignore our intuitive side and proceed blindly.

Additionally, if plans go awry, or connections are missed or delayed, the Neptune retrograde provides a slippery slope to imagined wrongs or problems where none may exist. This can lead to a quick change of heart and plans even if, ultimately, there is a reason for the confusion that may be obscured by the feeling of being deceived, which may or may not be justified.

When one adds the usual chaos of a Mercury retrograde to the mix, the combination can provide stresses to even the most committed and stable relationships, let alone those who are going to spend quality time together for the first time, in real time. Mercury's impact for the August retrograde can result in missed calls or emails, interrupted or cancelled travel plans, jumbled reservations, and the overall frustration of dealing with communication issues on multiple levels.

So, what should fall lovers do? Clearly, this is the time of year to spend quality time with your heart's interest. Equally important, if this is a regular meeting or the culmination of a long distance encounter that seems to have bloomed into something quite special. Although hearts, minds and bodies are clamoring to fulfill the promise of finally bridging the miles, it is important to remember that things may not go as smoothly or as planned especially during Mercury retrograde beginning in late October.

This doesn't mean that the long distance relationship is doomed or can't grow even more intense. What it does mean is that the impact of these astrological events could add complications that were neither planned for nor expected. Knowing that these influences are out there can help you and your love interest keep perspective and realize that, ultimately, the universe does have the upper hand and that those things which are destined will happen in their time.

You may find that, if someone will lend and ear, you will pick up some valuable information regarding your long distance relationship. Because things are not what they seem right now, doesn't mean you have to end it. Be brave enough to tell someone about it. A good hair dresser or someone who is experienced at psychic readings will surely give you some advice you will not soon forget.
