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 is ruled by the planet Neptune? Any 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.

Question: I have a two-part question relating to clingy, dependent people. 1.) What house placements and aspects are indicative of someone who is likely to be very clingy and totally dependent on others for emotional and other types of support? 2.) Similarly, what aspects/placements are associated with attracting such people? I’m asking because the only women I seem to attract are those who are so emotionally needy that they drain nearly every ounce of energy out of me; I’m trying...

In astrology Neptune symbolizes tremendous beauty, insight, and transcendence – and although this all sounds wonderful, this planet’s experiences can be followed by some serious comedowns. The transcendent feelings can come through love, a drug, living a dream – and the descent can come in the break up of a romance, the come down of a trip, the having to get up and go to work after our wonderful holiday or retreat and then it’s back to the doldrums of...

With Neptune in the 7th there are many different ways where a Soul can be utterly deluded by way of projecting God versus the actual reality at hand. For example, a Soul can delude itself into believing that “God is telling me to be with so and so” when the actual reality is not that at all: so and so is simply a person who the Soul desires to be with yet finds the need to project the rationale of...

Question: Years ago I read a book that talked about how everyone who came into our lives reflected something in our thoughts and beliefs. I learned about how people in my life mirror something about me. I was stumped since an ex-partner is my complete opposite. I have what would be considered a Neptunian chart and consider myself to be kind and compassionate, but my former lover liked to frequently drink, socialize and then lie about what he’d done. Any...

1. Neptune is a mysterious and distant world and in it, we see the beauty, hope, and love that we may feel is missing. The realm itself is filled with mystique and we yearn for that elusive something. Neptune rules the imaginative process that can dream up ideal states and it makes us feel good and we like to believe that life can sparkle. 2. Where Neptune is placed in the horoscope we want tranquility and ease. 3. Neptune is the planet...

The planet Neptune contains shadowy shapes, distortions, and cloudy water. As it is famous for reflecting our longings back to us like a mirror, the oceanic god can have us “saying yes” when we really should be saying – no. Drinking can be a kind of magic, this alchemy and metamorphosis have the power to change our personality and mood. Too much intoxication, though, and it can result in unconsciousness or even death. You’ll have to forgive the lack of...
