THE MEANING OF NEPTUNE
In astronomy, Neptune is the last planet in our Solar System. It was discovered in 1846, with mathematical calculations. Its discoverers were Urbain Le Verrier, who calculated its position, and Johann Gottfried Galle, who found it. Neptune has 14 moons. Due to its great distance from the Sun, it is also one of the coldest planets.
In mythology, the characteristics of Neptune are personified by the Greek god Poseidon and the Roman god Neptune. Poseidon is the god of the sea, storms, earthquakes, and horses. Neptune is the god of the sea and horses.
In astrology, Neptune is associated with idealism, spirituality, and the search for universal truth. Neptune tells us how able we are to use our intuition and transcend the boundaries of the material world to create something so extraordinary that it doesn’t even seem real. This planet represents our most impossible dreams, so it simultaneously also carries the potential for great disappointment and escape from reality. Wherever Neptune is located in the birth chart, that is the area where we can be intuitive, inspired, and creative, but also dreamy, confused, indecisive, and a little lost.
CHARACTERISTICS
Neptune represents our intuition and our ability to perceive invisible worlds and transmit their messages to the material world. This planet is connected to the intangible world, which is the source of spirituality, universal wisdom, and creativity. Neptune represents the magic and an otherworldly charm that is extremely attractive and seems unreal. Whatever Neptune touches becomes more beautiful and more enchanting. It looks ideal as if it's from a dream; after all, ideals and dreams are what make life worth living. Neptune is the planet that encourages us to fulfill our dreams, it is the reason why we imagine a better future for ourselves and strive to achieve it. Neptune in a strong position in the birth chart tells us that the individual has a vivid imagination and is extremely creative. It is also characteristic of the individual to have a well-developed intuition that guides them in their creative endeavors. In addition, they also have extraordinary charisma and personal charm. To others, the individual seems very special, so they tend to idealize this person, as they consider them to be the embodiment of all that is good and beautiful. If Neptune is in a weak position in the birth chart, it means that the individual is too lost in their imagination and finds it difficult to see the truth. They are also often too dreamy and floaty. Other people are extremely fascinated by this person and idolize them. The individual is often happy to play this role because they really want to be everything others see in them. They often believe the praise, admiration, and projections of others, and can quickly begin to think that they truly are as special and wonderful as others say. In the end, however, it usually turns out that they adapted their personality to outside projections because they wanted to meet the expectations of others and didn't wish to disappoint.
Neptune is also the planet that represents our ability to empathize with other people. It tells us how deeply the problems and suffering of other people affect us, as well as what we are willing to do to help them to make their lives a little easier. Neptune represents the boundlessness and interconnectedness of everything that exists. This means that we are all connected in some way, that our personal experiences are universal on an emotional level, even though they seem completely different; emotions are universal and through them, we can identify with other people. If an individual has a strong Neptune, it means that they have an extraordinary ability to show compassion and mercy towards other people. They easily put themselves in other people's shoes and understand them deeply, without any condemnation or prejudice. They are often highly intuitive and able to experience other people’s emotional states as their own. Because of this, they know how to help people in difficult situations. In addition, this quality allows them to become an exceptional artist, as they are able to provoke deep feelings in people with their work and thus confirm that we are all connected to each other. If Neptune is weak in the birth chart, the individual is too compassionate, which makes them so self-sacrificing that they tend to do too much for others. Other people can easily take advantage of this person's kindness because they find it very difficult to turn down anyone who asks for their help. They have trouble separating other people's emotional states from their own, so they can experience other people's emotions as their own. Because of this, they often struggle with negative emotional states. If they are constantly surrounded by people who have personal problems and seek the individual's support, they can even become depressed. Many times, constant sadness and pain lead them to try to escape from reality, which often manifests in some form of dependence, most commonly on various substances.
Neptune also represents our idealism and altruism, which means that this planet is the reason we believe in the goodness of people and also the reason we try to return it when we can. We often do things for others without expecting anything in return, simply because we believe it is the right thing to do. This attitude can inevitably mean that we will end up disappointed many times, as the world is not always kind. This ability to be compassionate and understanding and to constantly forgive means that we can also let go of the disappointments and betrayals we have suffered and try again. An individual with a strong Neptune is idealistic. They believe in the goodness of the world and people, so they are usually kind and generous to everyone because they believe that their kindness will be repaid. Their sensitivity and kindness are the qualities that others see very clearly, so people usually don’t want to hurt the individual because they see them as a good person and don’t want to cause them any harm. If Neptune is weak, the individual can be overly idealistic. They usually see the world through rose-colored glasses and believe too much in the goodness of people. Their idealistic outlook on life means that they often find themselves in situations where others mislead them or betray them in some way, so they end up disappointed. Because of their extraordinary compassion, they are able to forgive the same people over and over again. This is also the reason why they keep repeating the same mistakes over and over again. Constant disappointments can lead the individual to start running away from reality, which often manifests as irresponsibility, addiction, or unproductive behavior.

A negatively expressed Neptune manifests as deceptiveness and the ability to mislead and lie, both themselves and others. The individual is dreamy, floaty, and unproductive.
