What Neptune fundamentally requires of us is an attitude of surrender to and trust in the flow of events, a surrender of our attachment to outcome and our need to plan and control. Neptune will often take us on to new phase in our life, but along the way we also have to become more like him.
Last time I had a major Neptune transit was in 1997/98 - conjunct IC - and it turned my life upside down. I really hadn't been expecting that. So with Neptune conjoining my Sun next year, I'm having to accept that anything could happen, it will probably be really big, but for now I can't see how.
All I do know is that life seems a bit limiting at present, I'm increasingly aware I'm only functioning with part of myself. The astrology readings and blogging are fine, but then I sometimes feel it's all these words and there are big bits of me left out of that, and I want a break from all these words. There suddenly isn't quite the same energy available for it all, and I think this can be a sign of things to come: with a major transit beginning, you can find energy being withdrawn from aspects of your life, and it's outside your control, and it's necessary so that something new can arise, it's like the leaves in autumn.

I am through my neptune transit... grateful to say. I hope the tide flowing you away from blogging turns, for purely greedy reasons. We need the voice of a water-logged Aquarian! :-P
Thanks Elsa! Hmm, what about Neptune and your Node-Uranus?
Like this post a LOT! Neptune transits frustrate the hell out of me and this one is no exception being square my Mars. Most of the time I ignore them until they are completely in my face & i can't anymore . . . :-)
I have Neptune transiting my Ascendant and I am having enormous difficulty losing things. I recently went to Melbourne (I am from the Blue Mountains out of Sydney) and managed to lose my wallet with all my cards and ID (identity-asc)two days in a row! Dumb and dumber. So preoccupied and in a total fog.
The first time a kind young man ran after me and gave it back after I had left it at the theatre (Neptune). I reflected how grateful I was and how difficult it would have been for me to lose it away from home!
The next day I left it behind again, but the universe had already given me my kindly warning, and this time I was in Footscray, which is junkie central (Neptune again)and it didn't come back.
Certainly right about the withdrawal of energy from the outer world with Neptune. I am keeping pretty much to myself and find contact with outer world quite traumatic at the moment.
There is a sense also of my body and personality (Asc) disintegrating (Neptune).
The upside is having periods of time, usually outside in beautiful day and feeling absolutely happy.
Springtime in the blue mountains is very special.
