Symbol
Uranus, Neptune, and Pluto are generational planets, spending 6 to 8 years, 13 to 15 years, and 17 to 31 years in each sign, respectively.
Neptune represents your Way of Mystery. Its placement in Sign and House reveals how we are connected to the mass consciousness and the spiritual energy of the universe.
Consider an individual with Neptune in Scorpio in the 1st House. Scorpio is a Water Sign. Water’s expression is emotional, intuitive, and imaginative. In Scorpio, the Element acts intensely, transformatively, and unrelentingly. So, the key phrase is “Your Way of Mystery manifests through your intense and truth-seeking quest for and attraction to penetrating and emotionally transformative identity development.” In short, this individual sees his or her search for identity as a mystery to be solved.
Neptune expresses itself through a Sign and acts most powerfully in an area of your life by House. This section will look at all 12 Sign and House placements for Neptune. It is important to make a clear distinction between the Sign and House. While it is correct that each Zodiac Sign rules a particular House, it is vital not to conflate the two.
Neptune in Aries is not the same as Neptune in the 1st House even though Aries rules the first House. A person with Neptune in Aries has a Way of Mystery devoted to independent and maverick behavior regardless of House placement. Someone with Neptune in the 1st House has spirituality devoted to figuring oneself out and working on identity issues over the course of his or her lifetime.
