Neptune is the planet of visionary schemes, corporations, stocks/shares, inflation of all types, involved affairs, dramatic art, movies, pornography, photography, aviation, oil, gas and submarines.
It rules involuntary servitude, slavery, blackmail – all methods by which people are kept in bondage; and big pharma and the pharmaceuticals – medicinal and other drugs – it produces for a world wracked with pain.
You live in an age when gene science promised wonderful cures. The medical researchers were desperate for funding dollars, awards and bragging rights and their wonder treatments turned out to be drugs and painkillers.
They’re prescribed by new age doctors to manage ever disease known to humanity, but rarely cure, have side-effects and when they’re stopped the condition being treated returns. But when you’re wracked with pain you’ll try anything.
So, Neptune’s smart drugs, magic pills and painkillers promise a quick fix from the mental and physical pain which prompted Katherine Hepburn as Violet Venerable in Suddenly Last Summer (1959) to comment: ‘Isn’t it nice of the drug store to keep us alive.’
Neptune rules drug addiction, drug traffickers, chemicals/chemical waste, poisons, deadly toxins, pesticides, plastic, fishing, the fishing industry, oceans, smuggling, race fixing and any illegal manipulation of a sporting event.
In politics it rules the ideal and seemingly perfect socialistic policies where citizens justly and equally share in benefits aka socialism.
Neptune promises the best without doing anything to get it and promotes the idea that people can get rich without working. It thinks that those who do nothing should get as much as those who work hard.
Neptune is the most active factor in promotion schemes, vast undertakings of worldwide scope, and in socialistic and utopian enterprises.
In business it rules promotion and stock companies.
Promotion involves any type or method of communication that is used to inform target audiences of the relative merits of a product, service, brand or issue.
Neptune rules enterprises in which many members share alike or on a pro rata basis. Its mega corporations are suitable for large-scale economic activity. They raise large sums of capital through investors who buy shares and participate in profit sharing.
Neptune’s most pronounced influence is to exaggerate the hopes and expectations and its idealistic vision is often a grand illusion.
Its energies drive the world and its inflation is an economic bogeyman.
It rules socialists, visionaries, idealists, dreamers, spies, actors, fraudsters, embezzlers, scammers, slaves, refugees, people traffickers/smugglers and fishermen.
Neptune is the planet of mysticism, alternate states of consciousness, mystical lines of thought, religious ecstasies, spiritual aspirations and mystery. It’s a daydream believer and quite unscientific.
It rules brotherly love, psychical research and undesired control by invisible forces.
‘The Society for Psychical Research was founded in London 1882 (with Neptune conjunction Jupiter and trine Uranus in the sky) and since then a vast amount of evidence has been acquired by men of outstanding scientific attainment, all indicating there is an inner world, not apprehended directly by the physical senses, that under certain conditions enables physical phenomena to take place that are quite inexplicable by the laws of the physical world.’
The SPR is active today but Reuters and BBC World News pay it no attention.
The Neptune effect causes people to desire something for nothing. It sets the scene for non-violent crime – embezzlement, graft, insider trading, money laundering; and all the more subtle methods by which, without violence, people are taken advantage of: fraud, scamming and bribery.
In the age of fantasy games and entertainment people spend too much time detached from reality which sets the scene for trickery and deception.
Neptune’s a deceiver, trickster, imposter, masquerader, charlatan, swindler, fraudster, scammer and shamster and it regularly deceives and cons people by persuading them to depart from their money in the hope of gaining fabulous easy wealth.
Neptune creates chaos and uncertainty. It blurs facts, magnifies trifles, exaggerates expectations, inflates hopes and overstates numbers and a confused, muddled state of mind doesn’t know what’s going on or what to do.
Neptune is into glamour, make believe and fantasy entertainment: what you see is not what you get. Its the lord of illusion and a master of intrigue, lies, deception, deceit, hocus pocus and breathtaking exaggeration.
Neptune is grandiose and complex. It thinks in trillions of dollars and dreams of a classless society but has difficulty seeing and facing reality and often breaks or fails to fulfill what it promises.
Yet with all the snake-oil, fake remedies, false claims, deception, intrigue, confusion, fantasy expectation and broken promises humanity travels towards a grand ideal: its vague unknown utopian destiny.

Neptune is progressive and ultra-new. It promises the ideal and strives for idealistic conditions like a world free from poverty, conflict and inequality but it flip-flops, beats around the bush and can accomplish nothing due to inertia, daydreaming, confusion and/or avoiding the issue.
