The mechanics
What's happening
Neptune conjunct your Sun
Neptune dissolves whatever it touches: it softens, blurs, idealizes and lets go. It brings imagination, compassion and longing, and the fog in which it is hard to see what is real. Your Sun is your identity and vitality: who you are becoming and the center the rest of the chart organizes around.
A conjunction puts the transiting planet on the same degree as your natal point: the two merge, and the planet's drive becomes the point's drive for the duration. It is the most direct and total contact. Here the transiting Neptune makes a conjunction to your natal Sun, so Neptune's drive meets your Sun at that angle. Neptune runs a 165-year cycle, so each angle to this point happens once, if at all.
The tell
What it feels like
- Confusion about identity, direction and what you want.
- Heightened sensitivity, imagination and compassion.
- Low energy, escapism, and a longing you cannot name.

How long it lasts
Brace, or build?
Neptune takes about fourteen years per sign, so a transit to one point lasts about two years across up to five passes. It is felt as a slow season rather than an event: a year of fog, a year of clearing.
The move
What to do with it
Somewhere to go
Do not make permanent decisions about identity in the fog. Give the imagination a daily form and the body a daily structure. Neptune on the Sun dissolves the false self; let it, and keep the floor.
