About Neptune in Astrology
Neptune is the planet of dreams, intuition, and transcendence. It governs spirituality, imagination, compassion, and the dissolution of boundaries. Discovered in 1846 during the Romantic era, Neptune represents our longing for connection to something greater than the material world. In a birth chart, Neptune reveals where you are most idealistic, creative, and vulnerable to illusion. As a transit, Neptune spends about fourteen years in each sign, defining a generational spiritual and artistic climate.
A Deeper Perspective
In esoteric astrology, Neptune carries the Sixth Ray of Devotion and Idealism. It represents the universal solvent that dissolves the barriers between personality and soul, between individual and collective. Neptune's confusion at the personality level is actually the dissolution of illusions that separate us from our true nature. When Neptune transits a sign for fourteen years, it defines the spiritual aspiration and creative imagination of an entire generation.
