Astronomically, Neptune cannot be seen with the naked eye. Astrologically, Neptune represents part of the unconscious and universal mind. This cycle brings a time slot, when your conscious mind will be disorientated and confused due to messages that the universal mind is trying to make you conscious of. Making this an excellent time to develop meditation techniques, being a tool to get clearer communication from your own inner higher inspirational self, the best guide there is. The more you develop this process the more beneficial this cycle will be.
Astrologically this planet, when strongly placed in the Birth Charts of individuals, makes people into Dreamers, Physics, Saints, Bums, Drunks, Escapists, False Profits, Liars, Trickster, Thieves, Mediums, Actors and Dances, Imitators, Spies and Easedroppers, Visionaries and Missionaries.
When Neptune comes into our lives
by Conjunction, Opposition and sometimes the Square
it marks a period of
Spiritualization, Inspiration
and gullibility.
Neptune can be the ultimate fog.
It's highly vulnerable, sensitive and impressionable, so illusionary, foggy, illusive and intangible that it can seize you completely in an amazing emotional manner, inducing states of super consciousness which makes all things appear out of proportion. Colours are brighter, music is more magical, everything right in tune with the moment. Faces look amazing, astonishing and undescribable. This super sensitive state can be very cloudy and unclear, which leads to Psychic misinterpretation and misunderstanding of what seems to be in the separate reality of Neptunian rapture, beyond space and time; or it can also be one of the clearest and illuminating experiences you can experience.

Neptune is imagination. Where would you like to be next summer?...Without Neptune or imagination, you couldn't conceive of it! The song "Imagine" by John Lennon. Without this imagination, what hope would we have for the world today? Properly channelled Neptune, the non material dream world (imagination, visions, dreams) can be brought into the material world of every day reality through the use of discipline, purification, knowledge, wisdom, calmness, visualization and injecting life into the world to make it a better place to be. But the reality seems to be that we are not ready to accept this energy and know how to use it properly. Malefic or Negative its not, only the use is. When used properly Neptune can put you in touch within a world that is the Divine Source of Revelation itself.

A strong Neptune cycle is very sensitive and vulnerable, leaving you open to self deception and being easily deceived by others. You should be extremely careful as deception, thievery, cheatery and the fog are all around.
A principal Neptunian function, is service to mankind. Sister Theresa, Mahatma Gandhi are examples of this kind of service. Neptune wants us to be spiritual....kind, compassionate, self-sacrificing, humble, and selflessly giving loving helpfulness to our fellow beings. This energy makes some people devote their lives to social service, attempting to make the world a better place, for their having been here, without any real consideration of their personal progress in the material world in which they live.
Neptune dissolves your sense of reality, which can leave you prey to bewilderment, puzzlement and indecision, vague irrational fears and terrors.
Neptune energy includes, drug-addiction, alcohol, Mysticism, illusions, delusions, super sensitivity, smuggling, muddle, chaos, confusion, retrospection, escape....and a mask.
It can indicate a period of time when one feels hopelessly lost, like a lone ship at sea, not knowing where to go. Strange feelings of depression can accompany this situation, it is a really cloudy situation. It may make you feel like nothing matters - depression - an inability to deal with the real world with a weekend ego in the state of just being pushed and bumped around. Time to escape into the world of drugs? booze? opiates? meditation? What to do? Nothing seems real or to matter anymore. I'll kill myself or become a martyr or better still a SAINT! I'll give it all away - it doesn't matter or should I say it ceases to have any value. Something else has the value....could it be life itself? Without life and inspiration I am dead, with life and creative inspiration, I am alive and well, even if all else dissolves. The world can take everything away, except, who you are and what you know.
A Neptune period can indicate a period in which a new relationship comes along and has an mesmerizing, magical and hypnotical effect. You could be having the time of your life and this relationship could be like the impossible dream come true. The most inspirational and spiritual union ever! And as the influence of the period starts to wane and the fog begins to lift, you are now face to face with someone else! What happened! You just returned from the world of fantasy. Be careful of relationships at this time as they are foggy and unclear in this reality where things must be clear and stable in order to coexist in harmony.
The cycle is loaded with self deception!
