Okay, so today I decided to dive into this whole “Venus square Neptune” thing in my birth chart. I’d heard about it before, you know, vague mentions of confusion in relationships and maybe being a bit too idealistic. But I never really got it, so I figured, why not explore it myself?
First, I pulled up my birth chart online. I already knew how to do this,I use this cool website and punched in my birth date, time, and place. Boom, there it was, my chart, all colorful and full of symbols I mostly ignore.
Next, I looked for Venus and Neptune. I’ve gotten pretty good at spotting the symbols, so it didn’t take too long. And yep, there it was – a little red line connecting them, indicating a square aspect. Seeing it visually like that definitely made it feel more real.
Digging Deeper
Then, I started searching online. I just googled “Venus square Neptune natal chart” and a million articles popped up. It was a bit overwhelming at first, lots of astrological jargon that I didn’t fully understand.
- I skimmed through a few articles, trying to find the ones that were written in plain English.
- I focused on the parts that talked about relationships, since that’s the area where I feel the most confusion.
- I started taking notes from different sources.
I started to see some common themes: a tendency to idealize partners, difficulty seeing red flags, maybe even attracting people who aren’t quite what they seem. Ouch. It was a little uncomfortable to read, but also kind of… validating? Like, maybe it wasn’t just me, maybe there was an astrological explanation for my sometimes-messy love life.
My Realizations and Next Steps
So, after a few hours of research and reflection, I started to connect the dots between the descriptions I was reading and my own experiences. I remembered past relationships where I’d definitely put partners on a pedestal, only to be disappointed later. I realized that I sometimes ignore my intuition, hoping things will magically work out even when the signs are pointing elsewhere.
This definitely isn’t a “quick fix” kind of thing. It’s not like I can just read about Venus square Neptune and suddenly all my relationship problems will disappear. But it does give me a framework for understanding myself better, a starting point for working on these patterns.
For now, I think I’m going to focus on paying more attention to my gut feelings and try to be more realistic about the people I’m dating. No more rose-colored glasses! It’s a process, but I’m feeling hopeful that understanding this aspect of my chart can help me build healthier, more fulfilling relationships in the future.
