Venus conjunct Neptune
Venus conjunct Neptune: affection and imagination fused, a romantic, artistic and compassionate nature drawn to ideal beauty.
Meaning
Venus is exalted in Pisces, the sign modern astrology gives to Neptune, so the two share a home of sorts. At one degree they make a single longing, for a love and a beauty larger than life.
How affection meets imagination: romantic idealism, artistic sensitivity and compassion, and the gap between the person you love and your image of them.
Love and imagination are fused in you. You tend to be romantic, artistic and compassionate, drawn to music, film or beauty that moves you. You may fall for potential rather than reality, or give too much in relationships. Art is often where this finds its best form.
In practice
Conjunctions are often the most visible feature of a chart, and people close to you notice them quickly. The work is to learn the two functions separately, so you can tell when one is driving the other.
