Jupiter – Neptune Sextile

(Transit. Jupiter → Natal Neptune)

Het Monster. Aspects

Amiability, vivid imagination, but no practical skills. Mysticism. Good for artists and religious figures, but bad for practical fields of activity. Too many emotions, altruism (if Mercury and Saturn do not help – altruism is fruitless, unrealizable). Sometimes great sentimentality and miracles.

Katrin Aubier. Astrological Dictionary

Trine, sextile: interaction of a mystical idea with the blossoming of personality; religious faith is assertive but delicate. Tolerance, humanity, passion, and generosity. The conviction that upholding ideals and striving for a higher goal has no right to disrespect the individual, but on the contrary, must be built with respect for them. This aspect signifies power: benevolent, merciful, but still power…

Jupiter Sextile: Brilliant opportunities are better given than taken. Let’s give Jupiter its due: any of its aspects (especially a major one) to a Planet provides an expansion of opportunities in its spheres, absolutely free of charge; the only question is how to approach them correctly and manage them wisely. A Jupiter sextile gives a person an interest in expanding the spheres governed by the Planet, a broader understanding of its principle in both external and internal life. Jupiter will offer them many convenient opportunities for this, arranging them with its characteristic pomp. However, a person who believes that just as wonderfully the horn of plenty began its activity, so it will continue, will be greatly mistaken. Further, personal efforts will be required, and brilliant prospects will demand corresponding efforts for their realization (Jupiter will, of course, help along the way, but help will still have to be paid for in some way, as will the help of unexpected patrons). The Jupiter sextile is good because it expands opportunities and forms of work and provides a better, broader understanding of the Planet’s principle, especially if the sextile begins to be worked through. It is also characteristic of the Jupiter sextile that a person receives opportunities on credit, and often has to pay back in an indirect form (not on the principle of “I give to you – you give to me,” but rather “you give to me – I give to someone else”), which is not always easy for a person to understand. At a low level, a person perceives the Jupiter sextile as a trine and strives to absorb all advances without giving anything in return, which leads to unpleasant consequences for them, including very seemingly promising opportunities unexpectedly and permanently closing, and the person feels unfairly treated by fate, with a major hint of megalomania. Working through the sextile means not only a great expansion and effective use of the Planet’s spheres of influence but also a large number of promising developments that the person will provide to the outside world. Neptune Sextile: If you can understand – understand, because there will be no other such opportunity. The Neptune sextile gives a person opportunities for a true understanding of the Planet’s principle, but they require certain work from them, often not the kind of work the person is ready for and accustomed to. Neptune gives a distortion of reality, both external and internal, and working through the sextile means avoiding crude distortions and illusions, which are called deception and self-deception, towards subtle ones; some of them are called art, others – meditation, still others – prayer… Therefore, the choice offered by the Neptune sextile often has the character of a crude temptation; by sincerely rejecting it (which may require a large amount of internal effort and processing), a person receives a more subtle distortion and a more subtle temptation from Neptune, and so on. At some point, the level and way of seeing the Planetary principle suddenly become such that they can be a revelation for other people – if the person manages to convey their vision to them, and this also requires certain work. At a high level, the Neptune sextile gives a subtle understanding of the Planetary principle and its inclusion in such vibrations of the energy flow that an impression of revelation or a religious miracle arises. At the same time, the person may be poorly aware of exactly what and why they are doing it, but the feeling of the height of the flow and simultaneously strong resistance of the material will be indirect signs of the achieved perfection for them. At a low level, the Neptune sextile provides many opportunities for deception and self-deception, but also a feeling of attraction from the Planet, a feeling of ecstasy when mastering its principle. However, this will require much effort, and especially the development of internal honesty in evaluating one’s real achievements. If the Planet is afflicted, it is possible to escape troubles into a world of illusions, in which Neptune will, of course, help, but later cruel disappointments or blows of fate will begin. False pity differs from true compassion, which a person perfectly feels when they are directed at them.

Frances Sakoian. Aspects

Mysticism, excessive amiability, no practical skills. Vivid imagination, especially in the fields of religion, philosophy, and fine arts. Too many emotions in matters related to Jupiter and Neptune, therefore lacking discipline and practical sense to implement altruistic ideas, if Mercury and Saturn do not help. Sometimes great sentimentality and miracles. Love for one’s neighbor. They often receive help from friends and relatives themselves. Sometimes prone to solitude in religious principles, going to a monastery.

The negative side – sometimes a certain detachment from reality; a desire to see people better than they are; to justify everyone and everything; an unwillingness to see the reverse side, the gloomy and dark.
