Meanings of the planets
Neptune
Rules the sign of Pisces and the 12th house of the horoscope.
Neptune is the planet that represents our idealism, intuition, spirituality and ability for compassion and self-sacrifice. It symbolizes what we yearn for and wants us to feel inspired. Because of its intangible nature, it dissolves boundaries and has an urge to merge with something greater than itself. Bewitching and glamorous Neptune is continually searching for a fairytale ending and enables us to escape reality; however it can make us prone to disillusionment, deception and can bring about loss.
This rather elusive planet is also associated with artistic and aesthetic talents such as music, painting and poetry, and more negatively allergies, addictions and susceptibility to drugs (medical / recreational). It also has a reputation for causing chaos and confusion!
The sign and house placing in the horoscope shows what we yearn for and the area of life where we are at your most idealistic or where we have spiritual / intuitive urges. It will show how and where we may have to be compassionate or self - sacrificing and are prone to deception or disillusionment. It will also show where our escapist tendencies lie.
