At heart you are very gentle, impressionable, and receptive -
a
dreamer. The world of your imagination, feelings, and intuition
is
as real to you as anything in the outer world, though you may
have
trouble verbalizing or interpreting your inner experiences
in
a way others can understand. Mystical, artistic, musical,
emotional
and imaginative, you have a rich inner life, though you
may
seem rather unobtrusive and quiet outwardly. You usually keep
to
yourself.
You have great sensitivity and empathy with others, and you
often
sense things psychically or intuitively which prove to be
correct.
You are tolerant, forgiving, and nonjudgmental,
accepting
people unconditionally regardless of their flaws,
mistakes,
or outward appearance. You have deep compassion for the
suffering
of any fellow creature and often feel others' pain as
if
it were your own. You sympathize with the needy, the
disadvantaged,
the misfits of society. You are capable of giving
selflessly,
living a life of devoted and compassionate service to
others,
as a healer, physician, social worker, or minister.
However,
you tend to give indiscriminately, to let others take
advantage
of your kindness, and to encourage the weak to remain
so
by becoming dependent upon you. You have little sense of
boundaries,
of limits, of knowing when to say "no". Moderation
and
self-discipline are not your strong points.
You are a lover and a peacemaker rather than a fighter, and
you
try to avoid open conflict. You will patiently ignore or
"tune
out" problems and hope they will go away by themselves,
rather
than directly confronting them, and you tend to lack the
positive
fighting spirit that is sometimes necessary to overcome
challenges.
You are fluid, open, nonresistant, and somewhat
passive.
You do things in a subtle, often covert, manner.
Your gifts may also lie in the realm of the creative,
artistic,
or musical, for you have a great sensitivity,
inspiration,
and limitless imagination. You respond very strongly
to
beauty and to love.
Your faults include a tendency to be lazy and negligent, and
to
wallow in self-pity rather than taking strong, definite action
to
change your life for the better. You also tend to become so
detached
from your immediate environment that you live in a
disorderly,
chaotic sort of hodgepodge, though this probably
bothers those around you more
than it bothers you.
Your Sign's Ruling
Planet
Neptune
- A Transcendental Planet
Neptune's
function is to dissolve the hard and fast boundaries that
separate
us from what is commonly referred to as the "real" world.
We
associate Neptune with those planes of existence whereby we may
receive
inspiration, spiritual guidance and other paranormal experiences.
Without
drawing some boundaries, those acts which stem originally from a
self-sacrificing,
compassionate nature, can end up making one
feel
like a victim instead, due to underlying feelings of guilt and unworthiness.
Because
the nature of Neptune is associated with that which we often
do
not see clearly, it also represents those things which may deceive us.
This
deception may be self imposed, as in not wanting to face unpleasant
realities,
or it may manifest simply as us being deceived by others.
That
which we do not want to face about ourselves is sometimes
reflected
back to us through the actions of others. Addictive behaviors and
drugs
are under the rulership of Neptune. Substances or habits which allow
people
to escape reality and withdraw for a time into a so-called more ideal
existence
are all a part of the illusion created by Neptune's foggy effect.
Another
of Neptune's properties is fantasy. The creating of illusion and
fantasy
allows one to become whatever it is one may desire at the moment.
Actors
often have a strong Neptune or Pisces energy in their charts.
Musicians,
composers, movie producers, artists, singers,
and
"glamour queens" (including those that live next door), all fall
under
the rule of the Neptune inspired fantasy.
