Neptune Transits
"Neptune takes approximately 164 years to come full circle—too long to complete a cycle through our natal charts. This slow-moving planet’s transits are long-lasting, and each transit takes its time to unfold. As Neptune transits a point in our chart, retrogrades back over it, and then hits it again in direct motion, it imparts its own special wisdom upon the point in question—the areas of lives and parts of our psyches ruled by that point.
Whichever part of our lives and of our psyches that Neptune touches, especially by hard transit, is an area where we may feel “up in the air” and confused in the initial stages of the transit. Boundaries are not as clear, commitments are elusive, and perception is confused. If the Sun is involved, we don’t know where we are heading and we have a hard time defining what we want and where we want to go. If Venus is involved, our love life is unusual or confused. As the transit progresses, and certainly by the time it is over, we should have a more refined understanding in the affected areas of lives. What begins as confusion can eventually actually augment our perception and our understanding. Sometimes people experience a burnout of sorts that eventually leads them to take a different path–often a more spiritually rewarding and fulfilling one. Neptune acts to dissolve what it touches." source
Neptune in Pisces
"During the Neptune Pisces transit, we can expect ego needs to dissipate, if not dissolve to a great extent; such that globally, locally, and personally, hubris is humbled and little, or no separation or boundaries exist between who we are as separate beings and our oneness with all life.
Of course, this is a 14-year process, so we may start with feelings of disorientation, possibly abject weakness and helplessness, self-doubt, and confusion where we once felt total confidence and security — or vice-versa. Some may, on the other hand, immediately experience creative and/or spiritual inspiration as never before. The effect depends on the House involved in one’s birth chart and the planets/luminaries it transits." source
Neptune was last in Pisces April 4 to August 4, 2011.

Neptune is retrograde for 160 days and is stationary about 16 days before and 16 days after retrogradation. "Reasoning and all logic may be tossed aside in favor of mysticism, intuition and the esoteric."

Look up the house where Neptune is transiting your chart:
https://cafeastrology.com/neptune_transits_houses.htmlMy example:
Neptune transit third house: During this cycle, you learn to rely on your intuition. You may have some problems arising from your inattention to details, practical matters, and facts and figures. Others may find you less reliable in terms of making appointments on time or remembering them at all! Some challenges putting your thoughts into words likely leads to a stronger appreciation for such things as musical lyrics, poetry, and other art forms that experiment with modes of expression. You are likely to discover more imaginative means of expressing yourself. Neptune stimulates your imagination and intuition. Your words are more poetic and perhaps even inspirational."Look up any transits Neptune is making to your natal planets:

My example:
"Neptune Transits Conjunct Saturn +Problems could lose some of their definition and appear less difficult now. You might have a sense of living in a dream world or of being awake in your own dream. Everything seems less solid and definite. The spirit world seems real and possible.
Neptune transits square Moon You could get the wrong idea, develop false ideals, and let your imagination carry you away to the point that those who support and care for you are neglected or hurt. Walk a careful line when it comes to dreams versus realities. The dreams can be bad. Your sensitivity and imagination increase tremendously at this time, and you are much more easily influenced by images, the psychic and emotional energy of other people, and the psychic atmosphere around you. You may find yourself wanting to retreat from the abrasiveness, ugliness, or harsher realities of life, and to seek solace and comfort in nature, spiritual company, meditation, or your own inner world. Strange moods and feelings that you may never have experienced before come and go during this time period. Part of this is that you are absorbing others’ emotions and/or subtle psychic energy. Your sensitivity, receptivity, and empathy is so great right now that you may need to avoid negative, intensely emotional people, or even films or music depicting negative and unhappy imagery. You are opening psychically at this time and it’s very important to do it in a balanced way, and in a positive, supportive, or at least non-threatening atmosphere.
Neptune transits square Venus You are more sensitive than ever to emotional stimulus at this time, as your love and pleasure nature is heightened, open, and perhaps vulnerable to influence. You are opening up your heart, which can also mean you are more vulnerable to romantic illusions, to being swayed, and perhaps misled. You are easily charmed, and you must watch for a tendency to see what you want to see in romantic partners, rather than for who or what they are. You may gloss over important details and practical concerns in favor of idealistic visions and perceptions. Your desires are tender and compassionate. You are responsive to all things pleasurable, possibly to the point of carelessness or laziness when it comes to tending to practical affairs. Finances can suffer under this transit if you have a tendency to live on credit. Try not to borrow from your future, not just with regards to finances, but also when it comes to emotional matters. For example, you might throw yourself into a new romance that others warn you is not realistic. Force yourself to consider practical matters, even though you may resist it, while opening your heart to new possibilities. And, while opening your heart to new possibilities, be sure to use some common sense. Sometimes this transit makes us so vulnerable that we can too easily be taken advantage of or deceived, and this can happen with regards to money and in love, and sometimes both. There can be a lot of sadness as this transit can stimulate a deep yearning for something more than “just ordinary” life. We might attract challenging situations or relationships into our lives because of a deep longing for more drama or glamor in our lives, or for a soulmate connection. This transit can also do a number to your value system. The values you have cherished to date may change quite dramatically now, or you might be tempted to throw them away, or bend your morals, in pursuit of some pleasure or fantasy. As you chase something different, unusual, and otherworldly, you may lack discrimination in your choices of purchases, people, and pleasures.
Neptune transits square Mars *Work and important projects undergo difficult changes now. You are likely to feel very frustrated and disheartened at times, but don’t completely lose faith and throw everything out the window! This is certainly a time of questioning your values, goals, and directions in life, but try to come to rational decisions rather than act simply out of frustration.
