With Neptune in Leo, you feel a strong desire to involve yourself with life
at an emotional level, for that part of your conscience structure which en-
courages you to relate to other people according to the way you were taught
you ought to feel, is influenced by more conscious factors in your psychol-
ogical make-up which encourage you to make the most of your personal poten-
tial.  Your efforts to get ahead yourself will therefore be modified by
your need to take into account the likely effect of your actions on other
people at an emotional level.  At best this can mean that you are a highly
imaginative person, and that you are keenly aware of the impact you make
on other people, taking this into account when aiming to achieve your high
ideals; you may be somewhat of a crusader.  At worst you may suffer from
self-doubt and resort to indirect tactics fearing that a direct approach
will fail.  Whatever the case, there is likely to be a rather mystical el-
ement in your make-up, though whether this is due to inspired idealism or
to inspired ability to distort reality depends on your conscious choice.
With Neptune in Virgo, you tend to deal with the practical necessities of
life and matters involving organisation in an idealistic and intuitive
way, which does not necessarily bear any relation to the matter in hand.
This tendency arises since that part of your conscience structure which
encourages you to relate to other people according to the way you were
taught you ought to feel, is influenced by more conscious factors in your
psychological make-up which encourage you to develop order and method in
your affairs.  Obviously it is hard to indulge in precise logical planning
when your conscience demands first that you take into account how others
are likely to feel about your methods, for emotion clouds logic.  You
may therefore find it hard to plan things in detail, since your feelings
colour your judgement, and you may be tempted to evade your responsib-
ilities in the material world, through feelings of inadequacy.  However,
if instead you persevere, you may well find inspired ways to solve prob-
lems, for you do not respect the boundaries of normal methodology.
With Neptune in Libra, you tend to view the world and other people in
an idealistic light, a light which does not necessarily bear any rel-
ation to objective reality.  This tendency comes about because that part
of your conscience structure which encourages you to relate to other peo-
ple according to the way you were taught that you ought to feel, is infl-
uenced by more conscious factors in your psychological make-up which
encourage you to develop a thorough objective understanding of the world
and other people.  Obviously it is hard to be objective in your thinking
when your conscience demands first that you take into account how others
are likely to feel at an emotional level, for thinking and feeling do
not go together easily.  You may be tempted to escape from reality since
you find it hard to get to grips with, but there are positive and negat-
ive ways of escape.  Drugs and alcohol are not advisable ways of altering
consciousness; you would be better advised to live according to your
ideals openly: both you and the world will benefit from this approach.
With Neptune in Scorpio, you tend to be a highly emotional person, and you
are keen to act directly on the basis of your feelings.  However, that
part of your conscience structure which encourages you to relate to others
according to the way that you were taught you ought to feel, is influenced
by this tendency, and the result may be a certain amount of confusion in
emotionally-based action.  The reason for this is that it is difficult
to act directly on the basis of your conscious emotional state when your
conscience demands first that you take into account the emotional react-
ions you imagine will be evoked in other people.  You may therefore ex-
perience conflict between the need to act for yourself and the need to
put others first, and this can lead to emotionally confused action.
However, it also means that you can develop a deep understanding of your
own and other peoples' feelings and motives, and you may use your sens-
itivity to find more refined and compassionate outlets for your strong
emotional energy, and you can fight hard for what you really believe in.
