This planet symbolizes the principle of independence and self-sufficiency, as well as a principle of transformation. Its most striking characteristic is distance from others: the Uranian strives to stand out from the herd, distanced from structuring influences like convention, tradition, etc. Although this need to free yourself from the confines of convention, tradition, and family symbolizes an appeal for freedom and a desire to evolve beyond the bounds of physical limits toward a spiritual dimension, it may also correspond to a form of escape.
Your intense fear of being swallowed up psychologically causes you to react to certain emotional demands by making yourself remote or running away. You need a lot of space and frequent change. In a relationship, you are seeking a certain degree of intellectual excitement. Without it, you feel as though an unbearable, suffocating boredom sets in. By refusing certain concessions to convention which are practically inevitable, you may find yourself in unpleasant situations.
Finding an intelligent alternative to the routine set by the rigid forms of the past is extremely different from rebelling against any form of authority, in the settings of family, school, business, or society. One of the major problems you have to solve is how to wield your freedom, in your emotional relationships, as well as your relationships with society.
Neptune is a planet of dissolution and flexibility. You are highly receptive and open, and you feel a strong need for unity and connectedness. At times, you may feel overwhelmed by a feeling of confusion and subtle dissatisfaction. This can lead to a desire for escape or a plunge into blissful illusions. However, usually your fantastic dreams only make you more acutely aware of the realities of daily life. You are also highly flexible spiritually and emotionally, and your spirit and emotions emerge confused and your will is sometimes weakened.
