This is a tricky one - I can see how it would go both ways with Neptune. I'm sleepy - does that sentence look as questionable as I think it does? I mean, I can see how my own Neptune might lead me to see things that way - like my Neptune in the 2nd, trine MC and Jupiter, and inconjunct Saturn. My self-image was at least partially distorted for a long time, it might even still be, but I also appreciate small things in my life. For any crap, I always seem to be looking for it to disappear and be replaced by more of a Hallmark life, and in some ways it is.
I don't know if I'm making any sense. I can see how my neptune squaring someone's Venus, might have led me to focusing on his good points, rather than the negative ones... or my Neptune trine Midheaven leaving me convinced that, because I have such a great family, I would have been fine had I done this, this and that - discounting the fact that I could have made crappier decisions going down a more 'normal' road.
*edit. Oops. Not to take anything away from you! I just realized how that sounded. I'm sorry, I'm tired. You just used the word 'ideal' and it sent me down that road. His Neptune sees your Juno as perfect.
My Juno squares my MC/IC, and I grew up resenting the idea (mildly), that the pinnacle of my existence, was supposed to my wedding day. "The happiest day of your life!" You get the hubby, and your work here is done. (It's in my 7th house.) I'm trying to think of how my Juno might have worked/played with others. I do love Taurus Moons... (I might edit this out... as usual, just because I'm half asleep.)
