Astrology aspects - Neptune quincunx Mercury With Mercury inconjunct Neptune, you feel guilty if you don't respond to outside interests. You make promises you can't keep, and console yourself by saying 'Well, at least I tried'. However, your reasoning is not in keeping with the facts. You create for yourself painful responsibilities that are usually unnecessary. As if determined to persecute yourself, you worry over problems that may never develope and overreact to those that do. You exaggerate the seriousness of your failures, and may even become ill by dwelling on tasks you think others expect you to do.

You are imaginative, inspired, and creative, but find difficulty in expressing these qualities to your complete satisfaction. Your work should give you the opportunity to express your talents. It may be difficult for you to work at the kind of job in which you must meet a schedule. You would probably work best alone, so that you would not have to compare yourself with co-workers. Also, you could set your own pace. Working close to others could produce uncomfortable misunderstandings and make your job very unpleasant. You would gain greater satisfaction from working away from exposure to possible criticism.

You must learn to establish your priorities in order to achieve your goals with as little wasted effort as possible. In your desire to gain approval for your accomplishments, you tend to take on extra tasks. This is where yoru efficiency suffers. Determine your precise responsibilities and never offer to do more than these. You cannot spread yourself so thin and expect to accomplish much. Your nervous energy will not tolerate that kind of abuse.

In your personal relationships, too, you can expect others to take advantage of your willingness to do things for them. Your disappointment can be crushing when you discover you've been used. Wait for others to establish their credentials and prove their sincerity toward you. Take frequent rests and try to unwind. The pressure you labor under may be imagined, but the resulting physical exhaustion is not.
