Neptune in Taurus

A deep generational placement (the 1870s into the late 1880s), Neptune in Taurus pours the longing for the ideal into the material and the sensual, so a cohort dreams of beauty, abundance, and a heaven you can touch. At its most inspired it spiritualizes the ordinary and finds the sacred in the earth. Its blind spot is mistaking possessions for peace and gilding comfort until it becomes its own illusion. In one person it can show as a refined feel for beauty and a quiet idealism about security, with a soft place where money or pleasure cloud judgment. The work is loving the world without confusing it for salvation. At your best you make the ideal beautiful and real.
