Neptune transits your natal Sun can be very positive or very negative. It depends on how you use this transit. It mainly dissolves your sense of reality and gives a greater sensitivity, compassion and spirit of sacrifice.
If you have a weak sense of self, this transit can be immensely debilitating and humiliating. So, it is important to value your individualism, self-confidence and ego awareness, as well as assessing your general situation and spiritual growth needs in the period during this transit.
You may become extremely idealistic concerning spiritual matters, and gain enormous creative and artistic inspiration. These transits can also give great illusions, fantasies and confusions, but generally give a greater sense of sacrifice, whether forced by circumstances or by your own need.
They often alter your personal attitude towards the outside world, although it occurs in a rather mild and gradual way over a long period of time. They calm your ego and favor devotion to spiritual and meditation practices. They also dissolve the karma of the past if your are spiritually ready.
Transit Neptune Conjunct Natal Sun
Transiting Neptune conjunct your natal Sun gives spiritual strength and creative imagination, unifying your ego with the whole. This increases sensitivity, understanding and compassion for others. There is a greater concern for the spiritual meaning of life. You feel the need to surrender, subordinating you ego to that of others.
This can be very positive or very difficult, depending on how secure you are with your individuality, and how prepared you are for circumstances that benefit all, not just benefit you. If you are internally prepared, this can indicate the beginning of a strong spiritual or artistic quality.
Your physical body is also more sensitive now. You have a lower tolerance for drugs, medicines, supplements or alcohol. You may feel low in energy, so get plenty of rest. Do not deceive others, or pretend to be something you’re not, because the truth is likely to come out during this time. You’re also now more susceptible to being deceived by others.
You’re more idealistic now, but you must try to be both realistic and idealistic at the same time. Dream, but base your dreams on reality. You must try to balance both during this period because an excessively realistic person may feel discouraged and even depressed. On the contrary, an excessively idealistic person may get out of touch with reality and end up greatly disappointed.
Transit Neptune Trine Natal Sun, or Transit Neptune Sextile Natal Sun
When transiting Neptune is trine, or sextile, to your natal Sun, your mental outlook towards the world changes immensely. You become more spiritual and compassionate. Even if you are naturally more materialistic or practical, you begin to be interested in spiritual matters. Above all, you begin to understand that the material world does not give ultimate meaning to your life.
This transit stimulates sensitivity and compassion for other people, as well as encourages wanting to help others. You’re able to work selflessly and not feel resentful. You’re not ignoring your own needs, rather you identify with the goals of those you’re helping.
You can perceive subtleties, ideas and thoughts that at other times would be difficult to understand. For this reason, it is very favorable for spiritual practices or meditation. Involvement in spiritual groups will be easy, without conflicts and with sufficient objectivity.
Your intuition is heightened and you can sense what others need. You can have a strong instinct to start projects or perceive where to invest or take risks. This transit stimulates creativity and romantic and artistic inspiration, especially in music and poetry.
In general, it is a very idealistic period, but you must also do the work that must be done to carry out these ideals. The negative part of this transit is that you could sit and daydream all day, without doing what you envision. That would be a waste of this energy because this is a moment where your ideals and dreams can be actually carried out, since you see them more objectively. You can go beyond the limitations that you’ve accepted in the past. You see that you are more than just your ego, that there is another dimension to life. People may appear as spiritual messengers or agents that help dissolve old karma or blocks in creativity.
Transit Neptune Square Natal Sun
This description applies for any of these transits:
- transit Neptune square natal Sun
- transit Neptune semisquare natal Sun
- transit Neptune sesquisquare natal Sun
Transiting Neptune square your natal Sun is a period of uncertainty and confusion over the direction of your life. Some disappointments can be experienced, which can deflate an excessive ego or produce very negative effects on an already insecure person. Any defeats only reflect things that were not a real reflection of you.
Extreme care must be taken in doing things that you do not really believe in, as they will result in a loss of energy and a lack of vitality. This is not the best time to join spiritual communities that promote self-denial. You need self-care now. Try to first organize your own ideas, instead of adopting someone else’s vision or belief. Your own ideas may seem unrealistic now, but they may have benefits in the long run.
Above all, you must try to stay true to yourself and avoid any kind of deception. Deception, either from yourself or others, would highly likely end with disappointment now. Do not gamble or take unnecessary risks. This can be a very beneficial time to dissolve influences or illusory traps of the past.
Transit Neptune Opposite Natal Sun
This is a time of misunderstandings in which others are likely to misinterpret your intentions. When transit Neptune is opposite your natal Sun, you must be very clear and give full details when you explain yourself. Do not leave others with doubts about your intentions, as that leads to misunderstandings or disappointment, which leads to suspicion. For this reason, it’s best to work only with people with whom you have mutual trust. Trust will allow misunderstandings to be cleared up without damaging your reputation. Be open with those you trust.
Don’t get involved in crooked plans or with dishonest people, since it’s not likely to work in your favor. Pay special attention to see if the people who enter your life are honest. Beware of committing too much to some new organization or spiritual movement without analyzing its worth. Self-deception is likely now, so it may be best to wait until after this transit passes to make long-term commitments to new ideas.
This transit weakens the ego, and even the physical body. Take extra care of your health. Confrontations with others can leave you feeling depleted, discouraged, and even like giving up.
However, if you don’t give in to feelings of uselessness or emptiness, you can experience a new spiritual dimension and understand a deeper meaning of life, as long as you avoid self-deception. This transit can dissolve conflicts where the ego has fallen into the trap of being too realistic or materialistic. It can be a period of great artistic inspiration.
Transit Neptune Quincunx Natal Sun
When transit Neptune is quincunx to your natal Sun, something beyond your control may interfere with your self-expression. You may feel like someone is draining your energy, or like something is wrong, but can’t quite define what it is. Self-deception is possible.
This is period of uncertainty and confusion over the direction of your life. Some disappointments can be experienced, which can deflate an excessive ego or produce very negative effects on an already insecure person. Any defeats only reflect things that were not a real reflection of you.

When transiting Neptune was quincunxing my sun, I went through a period when I felt confused about my job and life direction. Also, some prescribed medication I had already been taking began to make me feel incredibly drowsy, which started to become dangerous, meaning I had to switch to an alternative medication.
Perhaps this is an example both of the magnifying effect Neptune can have on drugs of any kind, and of quincunx transits asking us to make adjustments by generating a sense of unease and discomfort.
Within a degree I feel sleepy although I don’t sleep well at night. It’s like a brain fog. I’ve become more intuitive however.
One more year. Conjunction
I feel drained.
It like just no energy.
I still swim and do other. Daydream lol. Whether dreams come reality or not.
I also have Uranus in fourth . Transit.
I dread the square of Neptune to progressed mars and mercury . A couple degrees away.

I eat right and all. It seems I’m still depleted .
