Aspects
Neptune Conjunction Sedna
Sedna's frozen abyss is fused with Neptune's ocean, so you feel the deepest layers of collective and ancestral grief, the suffering of the abandoned and the forgotten, and a longing that reaches the very bottom. This can bring profound compassion and a connection to the oceanic, the environmental, and the ancestral unconscious. The danger is the same depth: drowning in collective sorrow, victim consciousness, or dissolving into the abyss. At its best this is a vast, redemptive compassion for what was sacrificed. The work is to feel the depths without being swallowed: let the oceanic grief move through you toward compassion rather than pulling you under.
Lean in — Let the deep grief move through you toward compassion.
Watch for — Drown in collective sorrow or victim consciousness.
