God of the Sea

Neptune is often associated with the divine “womb” where all souls are said to be incubated before their entrance into the physical world. This symbolism is often associated with a distinctly feminine quality, which is why Neptune is often seen as a representation of our unconscious mind and prenatal memories.

Do you feel connected or like an outsider on planet earth?

These memories can have a profound impact on how we connect with the Divine, as well as how we connect with Mother Earth. If we feel like we belong to this world and are in tune with its rhythms and cycles, we are more likely to feel at home and connected. On the other hand, if we feel like outsiders, disconnected and unable to fully embrace the world around us, we may struggle to find our place in the world.

Contemplate and explore your relationship with the Divine and with Mother Earth.

• What feelings and memories come up for you?
• Do you feel like you belong or are you struggling to find your place?

By exploring these questions, you may be able to uncover unconscious beliefs and patterns that are holding you back and begin to develop a deeper connection with yourself, others, and the world around you.

Neptune: Symbology

The symbol of Neptune is the Trident, a long three-pronged fork or weapon. The Key to Understanding and Inner Knowing.

The trident represents power, creativity and inspiration.

This powerful image, along with a grounding cross, can serve as a visual reminder of how Neptune is about mixing the energies that are deep within you. When these deep emotional energies surface, the trident can remind you of your responsibility to create and expand in new directions, while maintaining a newfound balance.

By connecting with the symbolism of Neptune, you can tap into the power of your own inner sea, and find the strength to navigate the ebb and flow of your emotions. Remember that the trident represents not just power, but also creativity and inspiration. Allow these energies to flow through you, and let them guide you on your spiritual journey.

By honoring the symbols of Neptune you can tap into the deeper mysteries of your own soul, and find the courage to navigate the unknown depths of your own being. Let the trident serve as a powerful reminder of your own infinite potential, and guide you on your journey towards greater wholeness and self-realization.

Neptune: Mother Thyself

Neptune is often associated with illusions and idealism, it can also indicate a “baptism of fire” in the area of the psyche (The House Placement of Neptune in your chart.) where it operates. This is especially true when Neptune co-rules with Jupiter in the sign of Pisces.

Neptune represents forces that are connected to the prenatal and preverbal stages of development, making it difficult for logic and reasoning to heal the challenging aspects represented by this planet in the chart. Instead, what’s needed is infinite patience, unconditional love, and a caring, “motherly” attitude towards oneself. By working with Neptune’s elusive difficulties in this way, you can gradually overcome the obstacles and find a deeper sense of spiritual connection.

It’s also important to note that the interpretations of Neptune’s placement in the Houses of the natal chart are oversimplified and may be modified by aspects to Neptune and the general planetary distribution in the chart. Explore these nuances and develop a deeper understanding of how Neptune is operating in your life. Through this process of self-discovery, you can unlock your full spiritual potential and create a more meaningful, fulfilling life.

Neptune and the Prenatal Experience

A relaxed Neptune in a child’s birth chart can often indicate a relaxed fetal stage. A stressed Neptune may symbolize that the soul was restless during the fetal stage, not quite ready to come into the world. This can show up as increased kicking or scratching inside the womb, particularly during the later stages of pregnancy.

If you’re currently pregnant, it’s important to note that the prenatal experience can have a significant impact on the child’s spiritual and emotional well-being. To ease any prenatal “angst” that your child may be experiencing, practices such as grounding, music, breathwork, yoga, meditation, and water immersion (ocean, swimming, salt water baths) can help create a peaceful, nurturing environment for your child and support their spiritual development in the womb which will carry on throughout their lives.

It’s essential to maintain an inviting attitude towards your unborn child, from conception to birth. Your child is a unique soul with their own journey and purpose in life and you are being gifted a the vessel they chose to use to come to the planet. By being self aware and connecting with your child in a loving, positive way during pregnancy, can help set the foundation for a healthy, fulfilling relationship as they grow and develop.
