Share the story – all about planet Neptune on the ascendant…

“Say it’s only a paper moon…”

When drawing up a personal horoscope for the individual, one of the first things an astrologer will look at is the rising sign, located at the 9 ‘o clock point on the ‘natal chart’ or ‘birth chart‘.

It’s this astrological point that symbolically represents our entry to the world.

Our ascendant is the face we put on, the mask we wear and the general physical embodiment of ourselves and our approach – read more about the ascendant or rising sign, here.

Divided up in to twelve houses, the horoscope begins with the ascendant and the ‘first house’. When a planet sits in the first house or even more significantly on the ascendant it can really speak about the way we look…

Neptune In The First House

Neptune is romantic and poetic, musical and dreamy. It represents ‘the illusion’, spreading a watery veil over matters and distorting the view. It is spirituality, loss and longing and governs mysteries and glamor, movies and photography, and all that is designed to delight and create wonder through a soft-focus lens…

With the dreamy, watery planet Neptune sitting in your house of appearances others might view you in a distorted way – you could possess a face that looks like many people, familiar, and able to take on many guises.

You could appear incredibly glamorous, thus others might project an image onto you, whether you like it or not…

Kim Kardashian is an incredibly attractive woman who uses this to her advantage, able to be what the public wants simply by stepping out in style.

For Marilyn Monroe it was at times problematic, proving a challenge to hold onto her own sense of identity, to know herself and not simply be a reflection of what others wanted…

Down The Rabbit Hole…

Neptune governs dreams and fantasy, and people with this astrological placement could love escapism, dressing up in a fantastical style.

I find it interesting that so many stars with this placement gravitate towards the Victoriana style of Alice in Wonderland, the most dreamy Neptunian character possible!

It must feel very fitting to be dressed in a whimsical way, so if you have this placement give it a try – it’s not just for Halloween! You Could Try Tulle…

Intuition, Musical Talent, The Psychic…

Spirituality could be a topic close to home and these people can often be especially attuned or even psychic…

They may have an aura or special quality about them that makes other people see them as a religious ‘guru’ type.

Those Neptunian folk can be especially talented musicians, poets, artists or dancers.

Who Am I?

With Neptune confusing and blurring the waters in the house of ‘self’, a person with this particular planet in the first house could have a skewed view of themselves, a confusion that could lead body dysmorphia.

The first house IS our physical selves and with the presence of watery Neptune we might not know where we end and the world begins…

Arguably EVERYONE in the public eye’s had cosmetic surgery these days but is it perhaps more popular with Neptunian people?

Blurred Lines!

The presence of the planet could also point to scandal.

Neptune Rising In Sagittarius…

Kim Kardashian and Paris Hilton are two stars that found a different kind of fame and notoriety, both through high profile exposés – leaked(!) video tapes that well and truly blurred the boundaries of their personal space…

Cry Me A River…

The watery planet Neptune governs the sea, so it’s possible that Neptune sitting so closely to the image we project could have a wet or tear-stained persona!
