This chart case was particularly heartbreaking since it was unsolved and concerned a young woman who passed in an unusual way. Patricia E. Smith, an American nurse, died in an unexplained mystery. Her body was discovered in the bathtub on May 5, 1978, during a heat wave, and her car had disappeared. Because the corpse was too decayed for a comprehensive investigation to determine the cause of death, the Coroner determined that she died on June 29 or 30. When…...
Question: With Neptune, the distinction between the dream world and deception is blurred. It starts out as a fantasy, bolstered by an idealised version of what “could” happen in the future. Neptune shines a stunning, yet psychic and strong light on things that require transformation and healing; yet, we are in no way “victims” of what she reveals to us. She demonstrates to us what our soul is drawn to. Neptune is the source of all truth, regardless of what…...
Question: What does it mean to have an outer planet conjunct one of the angles of the chart? Whether we think of the energy Uranus, Neptune, and Pluto symbolize a cosmic’ or collective in the Jungian sense – as a shared pool of psychic imagery from which all humanity draws – these planets are unquestionably profound when they are strongly placed in a chart, ether close to the angles – 1, 4, 7, or 10 or configured with the Sun…...

Question: If you have a Mercury-Neptune aspect are you highly evolved mentally? It is often an aspect that astrologers actually associate with drugs due to the mind of the individual being unable to bear too much mundane reality. A lot of people believe that psychedelic drugs can occasion mystical experiences and enhance spirituality. Sometimes the truth isn’t that glamourous to Mercury-Neptune and they would much rather be talking about spiritual things. Indeed, they have the gift of putting information in a…...
As far as planets go, Neptune is the most difficult to understand. It is often said by astrologers that it represents some type of sacrifice in the life shown by its placement on the birth chart and the aspects it forms. The astrologer Liz Greene argues that Neptune has a totally different connotation than this. For many people, a Neptune transit offers an opportunity to give up something or put their own desires on the back burner so that they might…...
These days we tend to believe that the only kind of love worth having goes through the hardest trials and survives. Or “real love” brings pain, sacrifice, and hurt. It’s the reason we endure some of the betrayals, suffering, and the agony of longing. In Neptune’s realm, love is the most beautiful of dreams and the worst of nightmares. Harmful loving when we become each other’s habit. In Neptunian types of love, men and women lament to their partners “I…...
Paul Claudel, a French writer, diplomat, and poet, was transformed by a deep spiritual experience that forever altered his life. He characterised it as “in a split second, my heart was touched, and I knew I was right.” This encounter resulted in his conversion to Roman Catholicism, but he had spent years before to that attempting to reconcile the conflicting impulses of his intuition and his intellect. In Claudel’s birth chart, Jupiter is conjunct Neptune, which is an aspect that…...
Heaven! Elusive, isn’t it? How often have you thought: If only I had that house then I’d be satisfied! If only I could find someone truly to love me…then I’d be happy! If only I wasn’t under so much financial stress then I’d be content! If only…If only…If you got these things there would be some feeling of fulfillment, but perfection fades, and no one can be eternally satisfied. You think you’ve achieved the elusive magic element, but some other…...
Question: What strange illnesses or mental neuroses are ruled by the planet Neptune? A Planet Overriding the Chart Has Its Own Strange Pathologies as Well as Enormous Gifts The outer world for the Neptunian is full of threats and dangers. Psychologically younger than other individuals, they need everything to be perfect, resisting anything that’s less than ideal.
