Neptune

[Music] Neptune really exists for the purpose of moving us from the Uranus stage of things being burst through, things being broken through, and going beyond. So things that have been shattered by Uranus then become dissolved at the Neptune stage. So it's really something that puts us in a frame of mind where we are going towards oneness. We are going towards a total connection with everybody and everything.

So Neptune in the twelfth house are really a combination of all the other signs. They are all of those in one soup. So it's something that urges us from the realizations that we had at the Uranus stage to the unity, a state of total unity and oneness with everybody and everything. And it is the collective unconscious. It's all of the collective desires and dreams and everything.

And what does that look like? So it's a receptive planet. It is considered the higher octave of Venus. So where Venus is raw sugar, Neptune is a refined sugar. And it is representing the function within people that leads us towards universal love. Neptune is not a personal planet. It's urging us towards inclusion, universal values, and universal principles.

So at the Saturn stage, we are restricted by those personal values and principles. We shatter through that at the Uranus stage. And actually at the, we see through that at the, hopefully we shatter through that at the Saturn stage and then receive their awards for that at the Uranus stage. And then at the Uranus stage, I realize there's more. There is a way that we can be connected to the everything, not just within our society, not just have a world connection, but we can have universal connection.

So we go for personal connection at societal connection and Saturn. If I must say more, how do I want to put it? At the Saturn level, they are personal connections because Saturn is opposite to the moon. But they are that we, those personal connections we make within society. And then we have societal connections in with Uranus. And then universal connections with Neptune. So we're going up a step when it comes to what are we connecting to.

It's psychic experiences, it's transcendental experiences that Neptune represents. Things that go through walls, things that have no barriers, things that permeate what becomes an aerosol. And it's the release of self. It's the purpose of Neptune to release us from the ego, from the concept of the old self, so we can meet and then release the new self, which is the higher self. So it's representing the end of the cycle of human evolution and societal evolution.

It's our impressionability as well. This is nebulousness that we find with Neptune. It is not a clarity that is there. Disillusion is what we see, not just disillusion of what you know, personal things are, but disillusion of old forms and any values, any things, any structures, anything we've built, anything we've come to associate with ourselves at the Saturn phase. Between the Uranus and the Neptune phase, we are seeing through that. And then it's more about universal values, values and ways of being and ways of discerning that are totally inclusive.

So it's escapism as well as the other side of Neptune, escaping into something greater than what is looking for formlessness rather than form. Saturn as the creation of forms, Neptune, Uranus is the shattering of those forms. Neptune is the disillusion of those forms. So it is its destruction through erosion when we're looking at how Neptune works. It's a destruction through a weakening, through a gradual process of breaking down. If you think about it, water is the most really corrosive, powerfully changing force that there is. And it's so soft and it's so in many ways comforting, but it is this, the thing that can corrode and erode more than anything else. Water.

So brings us to a realization of actual universal oneness. When we're able to look through our illusions about oneness, look, there are illusions in our Neptunian illusions. Neptune is very much Harry Potter's mirror, where we can either use it in a way where it allows us to entertain ourselves through rapt attention to the illusions in front of us, the things we've always wanted to see, our preferences, our fantasies, the things that we wish could be because we know that in a perfect world, it could exist. And so it's that ultimate test of what have you learned about yourself? Do you know the truth of yourself and you're willing to step through that mirror into total oneness? Or are you still entertained by your preferences and your fantasies and that's all you can see? And so you don't step through the mirror, you're just entertaining yourself with it.

So Neptune has the ability to dissolve the former selves, our former idea of ourselves. It has the power to entertain us with endless illusion or create a process of disillusion that can then result in nihilism, a feeling of there's nothing left to live for. So it could be nihilism, a desperation and sadness, an isolation, or oneness and inclusion and universalism and the release of false, the false self, so that we can meet the true self, the higher self, the universal self, the self that never ends. And so Neptune is either [Music] self-destruction and denial or inclusion, the truth, universal values, universal value that we give to everything and everyone.

So we can either understand Neptune as it's completely depersonalized universal self, mmm, excuse me, or we can understand it as the mirror of our hopes and our dreams and our fantasies that leads us into continued self-destruction and denial. Or the other side of Neptune leads us to the truth. So it's, it's the most elusive planet and that it really is the last step to oneness, to total realization, to self-realization, the meeting of the true self. And it's at that point that we are so confident that we've, we've arrived that we either get stuck at the mirror or we step through it because we realize that it isn't real. The mirror itself is an illusion.
