The following are just bullet points that I have gathered from multiple sources both in books and on the internet in regards to Neptune. This became very useful tool for me when my own personal Ascendent was in conjunction with the current Neptune transit at the time. The more I discovered about the planet the easier it was for me to understand and make sense of the things that I was going through during this period of my life. The more we understand how the universe works the better we can understand our own true selves.
will influence your appearance and personality greatly
When located in your 12th house, you will be more secretive by nature and you may enjoy solitude in order to recharge your energies.
may feel as though interaction with others can be draining and it's important to avoid too much negative energy in your environment.
"I don't know if this really is specific to the twelfth house specifically or is specific for Neptune itself. Either way I believe that this is something that should be examined by the majority of people in this world. Taking some time away from others and finding the peace needed within one's self is extremely important. I believe that if this is not just a 12th house attribute and part of the Neptune characteristic, it may be important to examine that area in your chart where your natal Neptune is located as well as where the current transit of Neptune is currently in your chart and examine that area of your life. You may want to examine, if any at all, negative energy from others is causing or creating some difficultly in yourself or your life. This may be the area for some need of solitude for self reflection and rejuvenating on your part. I believe one of the best characteristics of Neptune is learning how to go deep within yourself and escape from the world around you. It is extremely important to understand how Neptune truly works within us so that when we do go deep within we understand the process on how Neptune does this. I also believe that this is the cause of why so many of the world find themself in different forms of addiction. This is why it is so important to understand the planets and their true purpose in our lives. When we lack the knowledge and understanding of what it is we are truly facing and going through in life we can sometimes find ourselves lost in the darkness within this planet."
Other people will never be quite sure whether you are showing them your true self or reflecting what you feel they want to see.
influence of Neptune ranges from unrealistic dreaming and illusion to the highest spiritual awareness and self surrender.
the trick is to find some kind of balance between these two poles.
"This is something that becomes more important when you better understand Neptunes role in your life and how it works. Once you have a better understanding of how Neptune works in your own life, you will have a better understanding the need for this balance."
Can act like chameleon within environments
Best to look at what your fear is especially when it comes to your identity and ego energies.
These fears may be holding you back from integrating a more whole and solid identity.
"Fear is one of the major areas in Neptunes role within our life. How we deal and face our fears are examined with Neptune in mind. The more that one looks at one's own fears the better the outcome will be for one's life. Neptune will force one to face one's fear within themself and how you handle and deal with that fear will be a result of Neptune. And like I had mentioned earlier Neptune is the planet of addiction, and when we don't deal with our fears appropriately we can run the risk of developing a very serious and life threatening addiction."
Avoid escaping reality into your own dreamworld, it is easy for you to do this as your imagination is quite strong.
You have a strong intuition and possible psychic talents.
Have more compassion and sympathy, especially for people who are oppressed.
"I believe that this compassion and sympathy comes from our own understanding of our own true self inside. Especially when we may not share that with others. Having the ability to understand and relate to others comes from our very own thoughts and feelings we have about our self."
Have to be especially careful with romantic relationships.
This transit can also produce important psychic experiences and transcend your personal life to higher and more spiritual levels.
