NEPTUNE - Mother of Myths, Glamour and Uptopias

Submitted by ciuboda on 12 December, 2008 - 18:31.

"Man, the Utopian — yes. Because we can be this Utopian, we as humans. Very likely, the ant does not dream of an ant Utopia; the ant's next step in evolution is not a vision in the ant's mind, for, after all these millions of years, that vision would have begun to take shape — there is presumably no "next step" for the ant as an ant. But humanity advances; we advance because we can dream of Venus rising out of the Neptunian ocean of new possibilities. With Neptune, all things are possible; but troubles come to the person who deceives himself in confusing "possibility" and "actuality," the dream and the reality, tomorrow (or some day after tomorrow!) and today. We can be so fascinated by the vision of Venus rising out of the sea as to rush into the sea, blind to the fact that water is not earth — and we drown."

    ' With Neptune in the 1st house, it represents a feeling of being lost and confused about your identity. You may not feel sure about what you want in life, and every time you try to establish solid ground in terms of self-definition, the lines become fuzzy and blurred. The Ascendant is our place of birth; it is the house of identity and potency and describes how we approach life and our personal outlook.'

    "Until today, I have not realised just what the influence of the planet Neptune implied or signified. Neptune takes a long time to travel through one sign, and therefore through one house. It has been in my natal 5th house since I was about 12 years old. About the same time that I fell for a blond Canadian girl in school, that I would not stop idealizing and thinking of as truly beautiful, even now, though I am not “in love with her” and haven´t really thought of her since I left school."
