I have this aspect natally, and yes, it does make you more sensitive & intuitive. You may also find it harder to have a handle on who you are, due to Neptune's nature.

I had a thread around here somewhere just 2-3 weeks ago about this; not sure where it disappeared to...

That's really interesting that it's gone on for so many years! I was trying to figure out how many years Neptune takes to go full circle; i think it is ~167 years; this must be why it's not moved a whole lot.

It's almost like a natal aspect for you then! Do you find that to be true?

eatbooks, the transit will feel a lot similar to what it would be for someone who has it natally

Neptune is currently squaring my natal Mars and Saturn in the 7th is also squaring Mars..
So I've been dripping with Neptune for a while now.
I guess to answer your question as far as effect... I feel that everything has slowed down. My vision of the future is blurry and I don't act like myself anymore much of the time. Considering the oppisition to the 7th house, I'm sure those closest to me are wondering where the heck "I" went. I must say that I've been quite a flake at times. And really don't relate to others very well.. I think it is a time of self- healing...

Zala posted somewhere (I"ll try to find) Neptune transits in the houses.
this rang so true for me as i quote...

"Our Neptune transit helps dislodge whatever is defective within us, those unredeemed parts that we have failed to honestly address in the past. We now have a chance to reveal and heal the self-sabotaging elements of our first house identity. Meanwhile, the finest traits of our Ascendant are now to be repackaged in a more appealing, even charismatic way"

It's exactly how I am, but I never knew where it came from with all the other craziness in my chart. With the talk of "name tags" and having to imagine how someone else would do it because I don't know how *I* would do it. lol

The one thing I don't really understand is this:

How can Neptune be in my 1st House(in Sagittarius) but my Rising sign is Scorpio???

I would also love to hear what this is, for I have the exact same thing!!! Neptune in Sag, in the 1st house natally- rising sign Scorpio!!

Your Ascendant is probably in the later degrees of Scorpio, and Sagittarius must start in your 1st house. Though, it all depends on what house system you use; I find the Equal House system to give some different planets-in-houses placements from Koch or Placidus or Regiomontanus..

Neptune is in Aqua. right now transiting my 1st house.

Now it leads to other questions though:

I have neptune in the 1rst (in sag, like you) and I regard it more as a channel on expression rather than a lens over my appearance. Try this link

and see if your decanate fits you.

That explained and helped A LOT!

Of course, with me nothing is ever cut and dried.
