Neptune in Astrology: Meaning Explained

Discussing the meaning of the planet Neptune in astrology, and explaining what it signifies in a birth chart, with astrologers Laura Nalbandian and Chris Brennan.

In astrology Neptune is generally said to signify illusions, mysticism, escapism, spiritualism, confusion, romanticism, the blurring of boundaries, extreme sensitivity, compassion, and transcendent experiences.

Neptune is one of the more recently discovered outer planets, having only been discovered in 1846, although astrologers have figured out its meanings pretty well after nearly two centuries of working with it.

This is part of a series of episodes where we do a deep-dive into the meanings of each of the planets in astrology, by reading some excerpts from different astrologers to see how they have talked about the planet in the past, and then using that as a jumping off point for discussion.

Laura is organizing two astrology conferences happening in Seattle and Denver in May and August of 2022, and you can find out more information here:
