Hi erika
I took a very quick look at your chart. You currently have Mars & Uranus transiting your 12th house.Mars gives energy where ever it goes and to whatever it touches. The 12th house is the house of "restrictions" and "psychological problems. So Mars transiting your 12th will be bringing these type of things up to the surface The best way to handle Mars going through your 12th house is to stay a little more in the background, don't try to move things forward, use this time to prepare for the new projects that you will be able to start when Mars enters your 1st house.
Still staying with Mars......it's currently exactly square your natal Neptune...
Like I've already mentioned, Mars energises and activates anything it touches. (The square is not an easy transit) Neptune is your imagination and dreams. On the negative side, Neptune also rules everything that can induce dreams, like alcohol or drugs. If you have tendencies towards substance abuse, be extra careful during this transit. Avoid making any major business deals or major purchases at this time, because you will tend to see only what you want to see. Be extra careful of deception while the Mars/Neptune combination is in effect. That includes a sudden desire that you may have to deceive someone, which is also a possibility here. The worst effects come with the stressful aspects - the square is a stressful aspect. But let's look on the positive side of this transit - it's excellent for anything involving creativity and imagination, especially anything to do with art, painting, film making, dance, and music. Are you interested in those type of things? It's also good for any volunteer charity work that you may want to do.
Now to Uranus.....
When Uranus transits your 12th house, it's actually a good time to go into therapy, as you'll make great progress. Material will seem to "come from know-where" from your subconscious. If you're not in therapy then this transit could force you into therapy. Uranus transits make for sudden changes. On the negative side, since the 12th is the house of “self-undoing”, any planet transiting here can make you act in a self-destructive manner. Uranus will do this by making you dive into things without thinking them through. Any sudden changes you want to make, while this transit is going on, are more likely to backfire. The 12th also shows “hidden enemies” - people who are working against you will tend to do it via strange or unusual ways.
Please let me know what's happening with you. The Mars transit is not a long one and will be out of your 12th house next year - but Uranus will be there for a long time. In saying that, it's not a bad thing. Uranus brings sudden changes but they can be good
