Neptune in the signs
Neptune in Aquarius
Neptune in Aquarius (1998–2012) dreams of the connected world. In a chart it shows where the collective is felt and the individual dissolves into it. The work is to keep a self inside the network.
In plain words
Neptune stands for your dreams and longings. In Aquarius, that works in an Aquarius way: independent, principled and a little detached. You do it your own way and care about the bigger group.
