Moon-Neptune Aspects

Moon Conjunct Neptune: Lost Little Girl

By astrologyplace May 11, 2015

A young girl was abducted from outside a store and never seen again. I was very much interested in the horoscope because it so closely resembled my own natal chart. Seeing how one’s life may change in an instant, along with the mysterious hand of fate, was profoundly moving. The Moon-Neptune natal aspect occurs in the young woman’s home and family sector of her natal chart, and the Moon is associated with the mother and early life experiences in astrology, while Neptune is associated with disappearance, mystery, and longing.

A void so vast, a presence gone amiss, Emotions tied to mother’s anguished bliss, As she searched for her daughter, far and wide, Longing for her return, with tears she cried. Amidst Moon-Neptune’s sway, A timeless reality may lay, Wherein the mother’s soul in disarray, Is left to dwell in victimhood’s sway. The mystery of what happened, Consumes her life, unbidden, Leaving her heart forever saddened, In a world where truth is hidden. When Luna and Neptune align, Compassion flows, oh so divine. But beware, for outside forces may, Bring negativity to your day. A touch of unreality, Makes it all seem like a fantasy.

In many grown ups this placement can be like a big sea of sorrow, causing them to experience profound melancholy, bewilderment, and even a sense that their mother is enduring pain. Strange events, muddled situations, and a psychic link to one’s origins can all be magnified when Neptune occupies the 4th house and is aspected by the Moon (the natural ruler). The lost little girl is always associated with Moon-Neptune aspects in psychological astrology, and there is a strong link between guilt, the mother, and her role as savior/martyr or great devotee of the ideal, lost causes, and charity organisations when the Moon is in aspect to Neptune. It can be an overwhelming emotional energy connected to feelings of discontent, delusion, and sorrow that flows into regions we didn’t know were there, leaving us feeling bewildered, in pain, and often frustrated and profoundly unhappy.

Oh, the placement of this burden Can be a sea of sorrow for some Causing profound melancholy to deepen And bewilderment to overcome A sense that their mother endures pain Can weigh heavy on their hearts Leaving grown ups feeling drained As if they’re being torn apart When Neptune graces the fourth abode, And the Moon’s aspect is bestowed, Muddled situations and strange events, May arise from psychic links, intense. The maiden lost, oft tied to Neptune’s sway, With Moon aligned, her psyche to portray. Guilt and mother’s role, intertwined they be, As savior, martyr, or devotee we see. For lost ideals and causes she doth strive, Philanthropy her heart doth keep alive. A surge of emotion, overwhelming and strong, Connected to discontent, delusion, and sorrow’s song. It flows into regions unknown, leaving her bewildered and pained, Frustration and profound unhappiness, her heart restrained.
