@teasel.

Neptune is not great for concentration or things that require energy. This unless they have a creative element /escapism theme to them.But even then, maintaining focus is not easy.The Nep mind can wander.....a lot.😐

Your input here had me reflect on some things in my life that Neptune has been doing when in the 11th🤔

Nep Aqu(particularly when it was squaring Sat) was "party time" for me. It was during my Uni days.Sat rules my 10th & 11th.I was drinking(Nep) and partying a lot.

Watch out for the upcoming Mars transit in Vir that will square transiting Nep.


I have Mars Aquarius. I was at the tail end of highschool when Nep conjunct my mars. I tried drugs and got more into drinking. Ate a lot of crappy food. This was also around the time I learned astrology goes beyond the sun sign.

Yes. Sounds about consistent to a Neptune transit 🙏🏿

Neptune opened me up again, to the possibility of love, and friendship, and then subjected me to bullying, gaslighting, questioning of my character - that mostly ended in my favour, but getting past that is difficult, when someone keeps trying. My mother became an alcoholic. My world was turned upside down.

When I think of astrology, I blame Pluto a lot, but Neptune has a lot to answer for.

When I was in my feelings, a couple of weeks ago, I wanted to write more, so I left this open, but it's also the reason that I stopped spending so much time analyzing astrology, years ago.

It's weird, but not that weird I guess that I'll usually add something new to my spiritual beliefs. When it was in retrograde I started to learn more about twin flames. Because I started to feel more spiritual chemistry with people, and didn't really understand it.

And I started to learn more about angel number too.

I’m so sorry to see that your mother turned to alcoholism. I know this pain all too well. It’s so difficult to accept that you can’t help someone who has given up on themselves. Nothing hurts more than to see a loved one self destruct and there’s nothing you can do to stop it. It adds another level of grief when that loved one is your mother, the person that gave birth to you. The one person that is supposed to love you more than anything else in this world. It feels like the worst rejection ever, a mother abandoning her child.

It’s a very painful experience. How old were you when this happened? Did you have anyone to talk to, Teasel?

I know what you mean by "character questioning ". I think its part of Neptune's process of softening you up and getting rid of "tough exterior " built defenses.

Whoa!! (°▽°)❤️ these post are beautiful..

I had the Neptune transit square ASC/DSC in the beginning of this year and last year - I found out from a rectification recently and it all made sense to my experience.
I was also going through Pluto square moon so it may be a combination.

During these moments, I learned all human experiences are subjective including my own. It helped me become more compassionate of others and MEEE - how am I suppose to justify or quantify how much a person feel or went through solely from an experience. I let go if someone couldn't understand my "suffering" - it elevate less suffering

I was floating the whole time - observing human vs soul - I can see the ego we played and adopted (programmed - not the brainwashed kind, the personality kind) - watching it play like a musical instrument - the instrument had no idea someone is playing it. It thought it was playing on his own. I became non-attached to personalities/egos and took things less personal with peoples trigger - it's their innerwound as a result I became accepting to peoples negative emotions and became genuinely emotionally available. I stopped analyzing people logically and accept there's no need to because something kept happening to me,

The dissolving of our ego.

Every time I tried to build structure - logic to understand myself or others, it gets washed away by end of the night... including astrology, I would think these planets are our engine here on Earth. It's not US. Even with human design, psychology - they were just not US. These are build so ingrain in us. When I accept our personality/ego is an illusion it felt so trippy! I can feel the dissolving effect. I was apathetic/neutral and accepting at the same time. I was more emotional/sensitive when Neptune conjunct my chart ruler. However with this transit, I gave all the compassion towards myself - I learned how to give it to others the better way. I used to think pity = compassion. but it is not, at least to me. Maybe this is the "undoing" effect. I allowed the unknown and use my intuition to guide me, it made it easier to accept this transit (Neptune) and Pluto (letting go of fears). Self compassion was so important to me at the time and allowing myself to cry it all out - the me that no longer serves me and the things I believe is me - wasn't me. It limit me to something greater that no words can represent nor a symbol. It was all in here *points to chest* or out there somewhere in the universe.

I feel so grateful for this because I picked up new skills: meditation and intuition (inner knowing) - perhaps a bit of psychic abilities? It seems I'm spiritually inclined. My grandpa visited my dreams before his passing and I heard whispering voices giving me guidance at the toughest times and it happened again during tNeptune/CR as well. I met my soulmate, his Moon conjunct my ASC and there goes tNeptune squaring it - we had a psychic connection - I thought it was all in my head... I thought I was delusional. No science or google can explain this.
I once was lost before, relied heavily on logic when really what I needed most was my irrational side. Intuition is our greatest navigation - it may not be rational but spirituality isn't objective, it's subjective and not measured. (I could be wrong it seems Pluto + Neptune brings out spirituality in me)

I have Sun 11H/Neptune 7H square + Pisces MC + Gemini Rising (Mercury in Pisces). I'm going to exp the tight orb with Neptune again in a few months then the tPluto/Moon end of the year. Then square Neptune/Mars next year. 😬 I can only hope for the best.

At that moment it felt as if all the existential doubts were eventually answered without a single thought, that is to say, the acquired wisdom was a knowledge in which no intellectual knowledge was needed, everything fell into place intuitively if it should be described but it is impossible to do so.

This feeling of ego or I that is felt in the body has returned and is so strong that it convinces itself that reality or truth is as dictated by thoughts, when these are illusory. They are the thoughts (the clouds) that prevent us from seeing the truth/what we really are (the sky that never disappears).

The transit of Pluto is also happening in the 1st house

Sorry for my English, I use a translator and some sentences can't make sense..


Aww 💙 you explained beautifully my experience
Thank you for clarifying it because this confirms my rectification is close to correct than my birth certificate.

I also had a non-attachment to materials too and I loooooove clothes. It helped me let go of my shopping problems and posessions - it didn't matter liked it once did.

My first mantra for Neptune when I was getting into Astrology was "all resistance crumbles ".

The very "watery" energy of Neptune does sensitize one a lot to being more open or atleast open-ended.

I think it's the "acceptance" and "forgiveness" quality that Nep bestows that helps to see people more "holy"stically ( but admittedly also more unrealistically)

When the worst outcome of this energy manifests, one is taken advantage of because of being too open and indiscriminate.That's the downside.

I have Nep conj Sun ruling my 5th house Leo. I haven't fallen for dodgy types (which can happen with this placement). What I find more prevalent is that I don't really see my romantic partners realistically. And I end up building all sorts of fantasies around them.

They are bound to disappoint me. This because they simply can't live up to those fantasies. This is inevitable. And when they do "fall short". My attention on them also becomes "short".

From a non love level, I do enjoy watching fantasy films and doing water sports. I actually really enjoy swimming. And Neptune is related to water.👌🏿

Neptune on Sun-Higher sensitivity, higher receptivity. This is why there is an increased propensity for illness and disease. One is "letting in" more.

It's tricky because many times it seems outside of one's conscious control.Yet the awareness of letting in more does come I.e. crying a lot more, being moved by music/words/ food or films from an inherently profound level ,wanting to spend time alone OR in a state of never-ending contemplation etc.

This is a time where (because of one's openness) one can experience "Love at first sight" or (when in a state of not being aware) experience "Deceit at first sight " etc.

This is a time of dreaming....a lot. Making fantasies in one's head and "living" those as if they are real.

Boundaries tend to dissipate.So there may be an inability to separate fact from fiction.Or feel those people you know fictitiously ,ARE you.

Neptune has a mindlessness about it. It lacks a definitive focus in energy. So being lethargic is not unusual. As is feeling a sense of hopelessness like you are going around in circles with no ending.

Feeling pain and anger on behalf of others can happen.This even if they are on TV or online. Neptune itself is not an angry planet. But it an empathize with the anger and feel it as if it's its own.

Sometimes i get some clarity about Nep. And so I have to come back and write it down here. I hope this helps others too who are either going though this transit. Or will (in the future).

Upon reflection ,Trans Nep started on my natal Jup square and it's been a wipe out situation in my life ever since. I am still under this transit. Neptune is currently squaring my natal Nep/Sun square. It's hell.😐

Update: there have been thoughts of suicide and apathy. I call it "functional depression " and heightened sensitivity to other people around me. Like I can soak up their moods.

I would risk saying that hard Neptune transits are the most difficult to handle.

I have been going through many challenging transits from Neptune for years and since then some aspects of my life were almost non existent which was the most difficult part - life is in suspension, is slipping through my fingers, nothing is happening, I won’t even remember much from these lost years…I survived many hard Pluto and Uranus transits but these were growth transits, more like Saturn. I cannot say that about Neptune…

I have the impression that hard Neptune transits destroyed everything I managed to built with 3 important long term transits: pluto transiting 4th house and Saturn transiting 1st and 10th houses. They were difficult but all three helped me establish myself as a strong, efficient and successful person. Everything I touched used to turn into gold, everything I touch now is almost falling apart…

I hear u LOUD and CLEAR 🙌🏿🙏🏿.I am in full agreement.There's NOTHING inspiring about the Nep transit.It is just flat out extraordinarily tough.Probably tougher than Plu,Ura and Sat fot me too.

With Plu,Sat, Ura, there is movement. Life is building towards something etc. But with Neptune, you don't know whether you are moving forward or backwards? Are you going up or down? And there is this constant feeling that everything is slipping away from you and falling apart.

At the start of this thread,I was looking at Neptune from a theoretical point of view. However, what one theorized as "happening" vs. What is actually "happening", are two very different experiences.

It is by far the WORST experience of my life thus far. I am feeling so tired (internally).So exhausted.I keep on romanticising suicide and death. My growing apathy towards life is deeply concerning. I used to be so ambitious. Now I have no idea what to do with my life, who I am and where I am going anymore.

It's HELL🙆🏿‍♂️😪😪

Fortunately, these transits are not permanent, they as well WILL pass. Neptune will stop affecting my planets and angular 7th house sooner rather than later which is encouraging. I have seen enough already and know how life CAN change.
I don’t know how I will rebuild all damaged structures though. Maybe from the perspective of time I will find some meaning of all this.

I’ll share something soon, that I saw on Reddit, a few months ago, that I could relate to Neptune.

I’m also wondering how long Neptune has been semi-sextile my sun.

Like I couldn’t stick it out, and don’t you know, that’s when someone started to to make digs at me, and gossip. It’s actually funny. I don’t know if they’re still doing it, but if they are, then as long as I’m breathing, I get to annoy the living **** out of them, just by existing, and they get to enjoy their gossip. that’s a reason to get up in the morning. Or the evening, depending on my sleep schedule.

❤❤❤❤❤ thanks a lot teasel. Some days are(admittedly) better than others. I have also resolved myself to the acceptance that nothing productive can occur right now. Things will stall for a while or work towards questionable or ambiguous ends.

It's hard because I am seeing my peers getting further in life and getting more. Whilst I desire things that don't come to me at all 😪.It can be outright psychological torture. Really awful, demoralizing stuff.But as I said, some days are better than others.🙏🏿
