When the Sun in one chart forms an aspect to another person's
Neptune
Hard aspects between the Sun and
Neptune in synastry can be rather tricky, but certainly not unmanageable. In a very few cases, outright deception is involved with this aspect. However, in most relationships with this energy, conscious deception is not an issue. What can happen, however, is that the relationship starts off with a mystical and decidedly romantic air to it. You may have felt that you met "the one", and
the Sun person, in particular, may project too many qualities (often unrealistically wonderful ones!) onto
the Neptune person. The Neptune person will likely be charmed by the attention, and may be inclined at times to feed
the Sun person's imagination in order to keep his or her devotion levels high. This is not a conscious attempt to deceive
the Sun person!
As I have mentioned elsewhere, Neptune in synastry has often
been associated with one person trying to deceive another person, but in reality, this happens much less frequently than
the following, more probable scenario: the Neptune person
tends to "play along" with the personal planet person's image, and
the intention is not to hurt that person. What can happen is that
the Neptune person ends up promising more than he or she can give. If
the Neptune person eventually backs out, or slips away slowly, the
Sun person can feel saddened and even slighted, feeling that
Neptune was misleading. Misunderstandings can be the result, and every attempt should be made to keep the dreams and visions of the relationship not only realistic, but also clear and
defined.
In most cases, Neptune does not want to hurt Sun, and this may be the motivating factor behind
Neptune's tendency to avoid bursting Sun's bubble. The Sun person should attempt to avoid putting
the Neptune person on a pedestal as well. Both of you should
consciously try to avoid offering each other unrealistic hopes.
They will come back to haunt you! (In the sense that they will
undermine your relationship, and possibly to the point of little
chance of recovery). The important thing to remember, with the
square and opposition, is that although the Sun person seems to
want to see the best in a Neptune person, people are not able to
completely snow themselves. The Sun person will eventually feel a
certain level of mistrust, and might even swing from seeing the
Neptune person as completely wonderful to seeing that person as
someone who is completely evil. The ups and downs can be taxing.
The Sun person should remember that if he or she has to make
excuses for the Neptune person (whether those excuses are made to
others or to oneself), then they are not seeing the Neptune person
clearly. They are truly not accepting that person, warts and
all.
The focus should be on the
tremendous spiritual connection that you might find exists between
you if you are open to it. The Sun person tends to want to see the
best in the Neptune person, and if the Sun person doesn't go too
far, and if the Neptune person avoids the trap of playing a game
of "pretend" in order to please the Sun person, both of
you can enjoy the freedom from judgment that this relationship
offers.
The trine and sextile aspects between the
Sun and Neptune in synastry are more likely to feature the more
positive, stimulating interactions outlined above. There is a
level of forgiveness and mercy in the chemistry between you. You
may share your dreams together with a sense of freedom. Tolerance
exists between the two of you, which is a very soothing and
settling quality. The conjunction can go either way.
