Would it be like the type of Christian man who is a Goodie two shoes and would not fight

1) Might have masculinity issues- the image of masculinity is overly important, even though they retain an ethereal and slightly feminine aura. Contrast to a Venus Pluto conjunction.
2) Sexuality issues- linked to 1
3) Cannot say no, easily swayed
4) Mars beats down Neptune into a pulp. Neptune dies, Mars wins. These people are Neptoon-less.
5) Neptune throws acid on Mars. Mars screams and melts. Neptune wins, and these people have no drive, or passion.

Perhaps it would be like a Pisces Mars?

Great Post.
With those last 2 opposite possibilities--which one does one choose when interpreting the chart?

This may sound silly but I have this question in general often?
Does one choose the "stronger" planet?
Would it be Mars?

At the highest level, it means spirituality, selfless actions, integration of your feminine side.

This is not a good aspect for ego driven people (as we all are at some point), especially for men. Ultimately, Neptune asks a man to give up so many identity beliefs about what a man should be and it asks to find a unique way to express your masculinity, very differently from social sterotypes. As a man, you are asked to integrate Neptunian energies, which is not an easy task, in particular in this society.

At the highest level, it means spirituality, selfless actions, integration of your feminine side.

I am a very sensitive, empathic, intuitive and even psychic individual. The hard side of being a Neptunian Mars man is that it is difficult to pursue personal ambitions, take actions (for my only interest). I sometimes feel mentally clouded, unable to think straightforward (even with my cappy Mercury as Neptune influence is so strong on my personality). I am a passionate individual (venus square Pluto) and I was very active sexually, but I finally decided not to have sex any more (even masturbation) because, above all, I seek spiritual connections with my lovers which I found hard to find. I have not been interested in sex for years and I do not feel frustrated at all. I do not miss sex. It is as if my energy was transformed and used differently. It may change in the future if I meet a person with whom I coud have a deep (spiritual) connection, but sex is not compulsory to me or a cause of concern.

What I feel from this conjunction is just that I am very in tune with spiritual trends around me and when I take action (Mars) it feels very in line with my destiny.
I always feel like I am going with the flow and seldom against it, in life. It's generally lucky for me to go with the flow. I'm always positively surprised (This could be because of Jupiter in Pisces - sextile this conjunction.. since Jupiter is 'good luck').
I do have very set out plans - as all Cap Mars people.. but they are not self-inspired.. My future plans are always inspired by something else.. something I feel is "right" - like I should be doing it because it *fits* my fate... rather than I simply chose/decided to do it (not sure if that makes sense).

It can be similar to Pisces Mars and I like other watery Mars people!

I completely understand that!
Have you ever been with a Scorpio Mars partner?
This is the only man I have felt a true spiritual connection with.

When describing demisexuality as an orientation to sexuals, sexuals often mistake it as an admirable choice rather than an innate orientation. Demisexuals are not choosing to abstain; they simply lack sexual attraction until a close relationship is formed.

See, for as long as I can remember, I always played battles and fighting, was fascinated with war strategy, loved martial arts. If you ask me who my favourite people in history are, there's going to be a bunch of military commanders among them.

Occasionally I do really dream of it as well.

I've heard there are some theories about what you are naturally good at is something you brought over from past lifes.

Hi Betty Boop,

I actually fell in love with a man with a Scorpio Mars recently, but I did not identify this part of the chart as a “turn on” for me. We had other interaspects that triggered the attraction. It was a karmic encounter, but sadly, I do not think we are meant to have a true relationship :-(

I can talk about my private life to people I have just met, it is not a problem for I have a strong need for truth and some kind of “intimacy”. But at the same time, I need to have my personal space respected and the possibility to withdraw from others. Freedom and respect are very important to me (Sun square Uranus, Aries Moon, etc.)
However, you are right, as a last resort, it is very difficult for me to open the very heart of my soul to people. It is as if I was working hard to open myself in being as true as possible and telling “others” intimate things because I actually try to reach this part of me who is at the heart of my soul, overprotected and finally not connected to others. I try hard to loose my grip on vulnerabilities and Neptune is here to help me whether I want it or not ;-) Because it is such a frustration not to be connected…

As a matter of fact, I feel Neptune has always been there to subtly push me to refine my energies and the way I express myself. When I do something which is not aligned with Neptune, this energy manifests itself from my unconscious as a cloudy mind, a loss of energy, dissipation, frustration, dissatisfaction and sometimes various material obstacles.

Step by step, Neptune brought up my conscious there, but I am still very much identified to my ego and the frustration I feel is sometimes unbearable as to interpersonal love for instance (not the lack of sexual act but the lack of reciprocity).

Thank you so much for answering my questions! I don't know anyone in RL who has this conjunction. It's interesting because I am also in love with a Scorpio Mars man, and it is likewise "not meant to be a true relationship" -- that's how it seems anyway. What sign is your conjunction in?
