Tweedledum and Tweedledee

    Agreed to have a battle;

For Tweedledum said Tweedledee

    Had spoiled his nice new rattle.

Just then flew down a monstrous crow,

    As black as a tar-barrel;

Which frightened both the heroes so,

    They quite forgot their quarrel.

Individuals with Neptune in the 7th have stories to tell when it comes to relationships.  These individuals seem to have a knack for picking the most unsuitable partner in the room, they are usually easy-going individuals who just draw those with issues to them like a magnet.  These individuals may have lessons to learn about remaining strong and independent within relationships or they may have to learn to compromise more.

Often these people have a few relationships before they find the one that is right for them.  This is just part of the learning curve that we all go through, if you have this aspect don’t worry the right person is out there.

Individuals with Neptune in the 9th house tend to have strong opinions on life, morals and society – I am speaking as someone with Neptune in exact sextile to Jupiter and Piscean Moon in 9th.  We have a strong sense of our own moral compass, and sometimes that energy comes across as self-righteous to others.  Which is ironic because Neptune in 9th house individuals often hate self-righteousness, they realise we all make mistakes and none of us are perfect.

Neptune in 9th house individuals realise the purpose of religion or philosophy is not to enable us to feel superior to others, but to gain insight and wisdom into who we are and where we are going in life.  However because they often have passionate beliefs these people can be evangelical.

At heart these people are always learning, they should always keep themselves open to new ways of viewing the world and the positive aspects of different cultures and ways of doing things.  An open Neptune in 9th will grow and develop, if the individual closes their mind to other religious or philosophical viewpoints they may face traumas that force them to open up to new possibilities and perspectives.

Oh Lord, won’t you buy me a Mercedes Benz ?
My friends all drive Porsches, I must make amends.
Worked hard all my lifetime, no help from my friends,
So Lord, won’t you buy me a Mercedes Benz ?

Individuals with Neptune in the 10th house often have issues relating to work, money and climbing the proverbial ladder.  These people may be very hard workers who never seem to get the credit or they may struggle to find an occupation that suits their unique talents and abilities.  They may float from job to job never finding a fit or they may lack the opportunity to advance due to circumstances such as family or lack of education.

These individuals may also have to deal with the opposite scenario, overnight success at a relatively young age, when success comes quickly and relatively easy we may forget that we can fall just as quickly as we can rise and that putting something by for the future instead of splashing out may be wiser in the long run.  Whatever these individuals do there is a good chance they will end up in the public eye, there is a danger it may be for going off the rails or children’s misdemeanors with the 10th house.

 

 Sometimes when we touch

The honesty’s too much

And I have to close my eyes

And hide

Individuals with Neptune in the 11th are very wary of letting anybody get too close.  These people need a lot of space and time to get to know someone, even then they only let people in so far before the drawbridge gets pulled up.  They prefer small social groups which are not overwhelming to being part of the masses.

These people find it difficult to blend into groups or organizations and feel like they stick out like a sore thumb.  They work better in small independent outlets than large organizations.  These people are highly creative and imaginative and are original thinkers drawn to express themselves in unique ways.  Sometimes the individual may be uncomfortable with this unique creative spirit as it seems to isolate and set them apart.  They need time to come to terms with the fact that we are all unique individuals, we all feel freakish in our own unique way.

These people need personal relationships that allow them a lot of space and freedom, they are honest and true they just need that time alone with their thoughts.

Neptune in the 12th individuals are learning to listen to their intuition, to develop the ability to sense what is happening around them.  They are being asked to exam and question their preconceived ideas about what is spiritual and what is imagination.

They are developing the instinct to follow their hunches and trust their deep intuition.  These people are learning to hone and define their psychic abilities.  They are learning the appropriate use of empathic talents, this may include learning to erect barriers when necessary to protect them from the negative energy of others.

They are also learning that all gifts and talents come with a price, the gift of empathy is only achieved by experiencing deep pain one’s self.  These individuals will have experienced much emotional trauma in their lives that enable them to connect and relate to others.  They realise that life is seldom black and white but many shades in between.
