I'll have it happening in about 50 days if I'm right about Neptune's movement (I'm probably not.)

I really can't tell if it is the eclipse, or this Neptune transit, or my Pluto transit that doesn't quit, or I've just become a major whiner...

But tNeptune on my SN makes the most sense for what I'm going through right now. I think the eclipse was actually quite nice for me. I felt really settled and calm and I did come to some realizations (not forced ). With Pluto opposing Venus and not both my Sun and Venus anymore, I have settled into one love triangle, and that's progress. What's on my mind is my spiritual direction.

I am at a crossroads, and (this is really hard to admit) I don't trust myself to make the right decision. I can't trust that I really understand what is happening in my life right now, and yet, I can see that I will have to choose a direction. I was content with doing/being it all, sharing only the parts of myself I know the different people in my life can handle. But I guess when you are everything in spirit, it kind of makes you nothing in this reality, and nothing (for the benefit of those around you) gets accomplished. Even the little knowledge of astrology I could claim has given herself to my confusion.

These aren't bad things. These are difficult things, but I do thrive in hardship. I cry a lot, and I thrive.

Of course this is SN. SaturnFan has a Pisces NN. She'll be experiencing the same transit as you, or maybe already is...

Since Neptune rules Pisces, I'd expect this transit to boost the energy of the North Node and make it a priority. If the NN has been ignored during the past years, then the conjunction could be problematic and cause events which will push the native to embrace spirituality, empathy and generosity. If these characteristics have already been incorporated consciously, then the conjunction can be empowering. In both scenarios, this should lead to rapid spiritual growth.

YES!!!

Neptune has been in Pisces for a while, and what's really weird is I keep forgetting. Every time someone mentions it, it sounds like new news to me. Last night when I read Koho's post, I forgot until now that I've known about tNeptune in Pisces, and that it should be approaching my SN. It's the weirdest thing. I keep forgetting about this transit...

Pluto and Uranus have really stolen the spotlight, but I think Neptune is what brought me here to astrology, (and other places/things) in the first place.

tNeptune will also be opposite Saturn and Lilith. Lilith is awake right now...

Saturn is interesting because, in Virgo 2nd house, it is supposed to ease it's restriction in that arena around the age 35 for the native. This is something I think I can feel happening. I've always known I'm to pay attention to Saturn as Saturn is in close conjunction to my NN....I'll have to map out some understanding for myself.

SaturnFan, it was a treat to read your interpretation of my SN experience because it was very clean and accurate.

It's wonderful you know about this transit well in advance. I know you both have been working on answering your NNs. Me? Not so much, but I can see that life lives, whether I'm ready or not.

Unlike with other Neptune transits, I think you have a lot more potential to achieve a lot of clarity during this time. Both Neptune and the North Node are so spiritual. So, you can feel highly enlightened during this time. Instead of a lot of confusing fog descending, the transiting Neptune conjunct North Node period is like all of the fog LIFTING and you being able to see your way toward something higher. Material concerns and worldly obsessions can be discarded during this time but that can be a big part of the enlightenment.

Since your North Node is Pisces, you have an even greater chance to experience this transcendence. Just DON'T resist it. Surrender to it. I know one Pisces North Node guy who's going through this transit but who has just refused to give his life over to Neptune. His Moon's on his Virgo South Node so he's incredibly stuck in his routines. All he does is Virgo stuff - just work and working out - I can tell he's so unhappy these days. Neptune's naturally going to be opposite your South Node. So, you're going to need to surrender your bad habits and your comfort zone during this time. Be willing to transcend toward becoming someone new. Because I think if you can't let go of your South Node during this transit, you'll feel very overwhelmed and disillusioned. But, pursuing your North Node will bring you bliss and great spiritual purpose. Just don't lose all sense of realism, either, is the only thing I'd warn against.

And appreciate this transit because not many people experience it during their lifetime! Make the most of it. My transiting Neptune conjunct North Node period totally set the tone for the life I'm living now, which is a lot more spiritually fulfilling. I can't imagine going back to being heavily in my South Node again.

And do you think tNeptune conjunct NN has the same positive effect on all the signs as long as the individual embraces it? Pisces makes sense to me. Aqua makes sense to me.

I do think each North Node placement is about spiritual evolution because the North Node pushes you to be bigger and better than you think you are. Becoming your North Node is sort of like being reborn. So, I think that brings out the spiritual element in every sign, though some will feel this more strongly than others, depending on the sign.

I also think that transiting Neptune conjunct North Node can be positive for any sign. It pushes you to dream and to go higher. I think that's what both placements are about, in different ways. Neptune is about transcending and the North Node is about evolving. So, yeah, I think it can be a beautiful transit because these two placements are pretty in sync, as far as their purposes. It would be very different than having transiting Neptune crossing your Mars, which would could blur your sense of direction and make you feel lost. The personal planets might suffer when affected by Neptune because it can seem to threaten the sense of self you've created.

But, the North Node is about becoming bigger than that old sense of self. So, Neptune can be very inspiring in its influence during this time, even though it will probably take away some earthly things you've gotten used to. But, you have to accept that and not cling to your old ways (South Node).

I'm hoping tNeptune conjunct NN heralds the final news on my Coast Guard processing. Big career change for me; the corporate world suddenly felt empty and I decided to enlist the CG because I was attracted to its humanitarian efforts (my NN in the 11th). Not easy for me - I'd certainly earn more money on my current career track but the appeal just left one day and no indication of returning.

I'm hoping Neptune, being the ruler of the sea, coincides with my swearing into the Coast Guard because that'd be a really good story to tell all future astrologer friends. Then I'll be happily on my way to becoming Admiral in 20 years which means Ruler of the Sea in Arabic *puts on Cappy MC ambition hat*. I've got a long list of humanitarian ideas I'd like to do but it all really relies on a successful CG career so c'mon Neptune, work some magic on that 11th NN cause I promise all my plotting and planning will be worth the little help here. Natal Neptune is in my 9th house so I should be on the ocean anyway.

So I'm basically expecting Neptune to do some concrete, practical things to my life and NN which is kinda weird thing to say. Been patiently waiting for over a year now and it's wearing thin even though I understand Uranus in the 12th has been clipping past "chains" from my life, Saturn has been in the 7th clearing out old relationships, and Pluto has been expanding my mind in the 9th.. all these things are useful but I'm ready to work and put all my plans to practice and I'm hoping Neptune is the initiator of that.

I know it won't be confusing though. Neptune won't be finding a confused NN holder here. I know exactly what I want to do and every day I plan out my goal. I've said it before I feel fairly guided because the message from astrology and all the other systems I've used just spell it out rather plainly and complementary

For Venus,

I hear you. I'm definitely hoping to help out your trouble sometime soon. Hopefully when I start thinking about your NN and things I can offer a perspective you haven't considered.

-----

Actually, here's something.

For now SaturnFan's analysis was very very good. Neptune conjunct Pisces South Node definitely makes the fight you've had all along so much harder. I'd imagine, like Saturn said, you need to develop that Earthy practicality of your Virgo 2nd NN.

Remember, I think you said you're a Life Path 5, the greatest warning of the LP 5 is to marshal themselves into discipline to achieve the freedom they crave - stability, perhaps self employment, by cultivating their strength. Whatever that particular strength it is.

Your Virgo NN in the 2nd shows you the strength you need to cultivate to achieve the 2nd house stability that would in turn give you the freedom a 9th South Node would crave. Remember, 9th house represents -

"The Ninth House is the sphere of high studies, both physical and mental journeys (philosophy, spirituality), rebelliousness, changes of scenery, desire for dealing with the unknown. It is in analogy with Sagittarius and Jupiter. It is a cadent house, less important than the angular and succedent ones."

The key here is rebelliousness, change of scenery, and the general expansiveness of Jupiter and travel - freedom. A person with this South Node craving could act without purpose, erratic, and do what they will all the time and achieve that as a form of freedom. But, as suggested by the Life Path 5, the true freedom may lay in cultivating your talent to reach the stability and success you crave (Leo Ascendant does like the finer things?)

You'll always want this. Just keep telling yourself the best way to truly get this is to achieve that 2nd NN stability, get disciplined, analytic, competent like the Virgo (not the Virgo people but the abstract energy) in that arena you've always eyed with success.

Because remember, like the Enneagram type 4, you can either fall into the average levels where fantasy rules you, or you apply that Pisces South Node talents to something purposeful in that will bring you the NN stability. No fantasies, work.

That's the current analogy I find between your Node axis, your LP, and your self-typing of the 4. Pisces SN is in analogy with the type 4 to dream of the want, your 9th SN is in analogy with the LP 5 want of freedom. All are solved by a dedicated Virgo work ethic toward the stability represented by the 2nd house.

Hopefully I'm a little warm here. If I am then the next step is for you to fill in the gap with the details. So just walk around thinking what part of your daily life can you tackle a little more Virgo-like without indulging in your fantasy without totally giving up that wonderfully creative side of you.

It's also worth noting, like the 22/4, the 5 is a late bloomer but for seemingly different reasons. From what I can tell it is the 5 wanting freedom and to be their own person that ends up making them a late bloomer. The 22 seems to just have trouble in finding practical purpose. The troubles here are murky and I'll think on it further to refine the difference.

Another way I can put it is since I'm your mirror - I'm applying my Virgo SN talents to achieve my very hopeful Pisces 11th NN. Meaning I'm working toward that humanitarian ideal with a Pisces sense of empathy and compassion through means of Virgo-like practicality, attention to detail, and general sense of work. Virgo is the means to my Pisces 11th NN end.

Fascinating!
I'm going through the exact transits as the ones you mentioned above. aspects to the same planets, same houses, and yes feeling exactly the same way.

I also had forgotten that besides the Neptune Saturn opposition, Neptune will also be conjuct my SN soon.

So about this. The tNeptune transit is already foggying up my North Node. I came into my current job in January to kill time while I wait for the CG. Everythings playing in a way that it is going to be a very hard choice on whether I stay on with this company or do my bit and resign.

They're all saying stuff like "I don't think the CG is going to get you!" or "Well when one door closes another opens so you're staying with us right?"

And I'm like "The CG door isn't closed I just can't go through yet!"

But yea, I'm like a perfect fit for this firm and team and would make it up the ranks pretty well.

Still though, I think I'd be selling my potential short if I opt for the corporate track over the long term plan and strategies I've laid out for 20-25 years down the line.

One option is more attractive in the short term view of life and the other track can better take in the potential I have.

tNeptune conjunct North Node is a very, very strong energy. It's giving me doubts and I'm about as stubborn as you get with my fixed placements.

Since it's also opposing your SN, maybe it puts a bigger emphasis on the 'comfort zone' you are experiencing with your current job. It might want you to become crystal clear on whether you want to let go of it, before it helps you embrace your NN in the CG.

I understand the feelings of doubt, and as a fellow Pisces NN, with a significant Neptune influence (it conjuncts my Sun by 1 degree) I've learned to deal with doubt based on instinct.
If I had a goal or an idea in mind, and people suddenly started playing it down, presenting 'better' options, convincing me that my current situation is either better, or will turn out 'for the best' I either feel:
suffocation - which means I should stick with my goal
or relief - which means I was obsessing and over-identifying with it, and there are better possibilities out there
