SUN OPPOSING NEPTUNE
This aspect depicts conflict which, when resolved, results in growth. Oppositions show a tug of war between opposing forces. If they are resolved, then the oppositions become the backbone and strength of the chart.
It is important to understand that the Sun rules masculine energy, the identity, ego, individuality, power and pride, while Neptune is in-tune. Think of Neptune as being intuitive, in-tune and tuning in like a Tune-Ah-Fish, since Neptune is the ruler of Pisces (the fish).
The Sun opposing Neptune reminds me of the person who always thinks they are being picked on. These individuals always seem to be pointing at someone else (it's their fault), but yet they are always getting the blame.
The problem is the individual creates imaginary problems where no problems exist, and then feels singled out to face unfair obstacles and penalties. Therein lies the blame game. Needless to say, there is a lot of confusion and misunderstanding.
The individual with this aspect in their natal chart may feel that early in Life they were singled out for discipline, and responded with a defensive attitude toward teachers or parents, which are authority figures (the Sun).
So basically the Sun opposing Neptune plays the blame game, and you can rest assured, there is definitely deception, double-dealing, fraud, subterfuge, and trickery going on. For sure! Folks, we all know this game, whether as a child, a high-schooler or an adult who is still has not matured or evolved.
The game goes, when the guilty blames someone else for which he or she is guilty it is called projection. It's a way of not taking ownership for one's own actions and reactions. I suppose it's also called 'shifting the blame'. Either way, there is a lack of accountability and responsibility.
This aspect has a high identity and inferiority complex, which results in fraudulent confidence boosters, and BIG ones at that.
On the chart wheel the Sun is identified by the glyph that looks like a target, which represents the circle of unlimited potential that is brought to Life with a dot in the center. The dot is your focus and where you will shine in Life.
On the flip side, the more positive side of this aspect, it can certainly be over-compassionate, over-empathetic, over-sympathetic, over-benevolent, quite possibly an enabler, highly spiritual, creative and lyrical (poetic). As you can see, it is very extreme.
If you received an 'Ah-ha' from this write-up, please consider supporting my 'original content' and buying ME a coffee. You might say, "One awakening (horoscope) for another awakening (coffee)". What a wonderful exchange of chi' and express gratitude.
