Aspects
Amor Conjunction Neptune
Your capacity for unconditional love is fused with the longing to merge and the pull of the divine, so your compassion runs without edges and your love can feel saintly, universal, almost transcendent. You forgive easily, give freely, and sense the suffering of others as your own. The danger is the same boundlessness: martyrdom, self-erasure, loving an ideal, or giving until there is nothing left. At its best this is grace, real spiritual love. The work is compassion with a self still in it: keep boundaries inside the boundless love, and let the longing deepen your tenderness rather than dissolve you.
Lean in — Keep a self inside the boundless love, with real boundaries.
Watch for — Give until there is nothing left of you.
