Be Pessimistic and don't trust anybody.
Just give up and don't keep hope.

I'm a fishy with Venus-Neptune in exact conjunction

You don't, because Neptune energy is borderline the closes to sanity. By not knowing is to know. To accept everything is to grow. Neptune is opposite of reality. But you see there is no reality, life is what you make it. The sad truth that no one accepts is that there is truly no point to anything we do in our lives. Death is something we all must face and nothing in the physical world is allowed to come with us. I am very Neptunian. We just want you to show us your heart. We are the kings and queens of passive aggressiveness. If we don't like you, you'd never know. Deep down most lie for the sake of a fallen world that rewards arrogance and status and not the unity of all humanity. Just be gentle, and understanding towards people's emotions. Neptune digs music, drugs, love, fantasy, magic and sacrifice. Think hippies.

It may be true that life is meaningless (although we don't know for sure), but don't you want your life to be happier than it was 10 years ago? 2 months ago? Wouldn't you rather have $2 million than $20,000?

Wouldn't you want to be a little famous? Just a few thoughts.

And yes, your writing in this one is very Pisces/Neptune in flavor.

At least I'm going to try that. 😉
My Moon and Venus opposite Neptune.
Neptune Sextile Mars and Inconjunct Sun.
More or less I'm Neptunian and Delusional too. 😂

Oh god.... It's like asking how do you catch smoke in an alternate dimension - and the smoke teleports when you're within 100 meters of it.

First off, don't try to beat it or think of beating it. It's not meant to be 'beat'. Accept it.
The more you try to beat it, the worse you feel and less you see. Every description of Neptune or Pisces is as mysterious, elusive or misunderstood as the planet itself. I don't think we're meant to 100% get Neptune, and if anyone claims they do, they miss the point of Neptune. Neptune isn't about exact science or anything tangible.

I don't think pessimism or distrust are the keys. Those can be just as deceptive as delusional hopes, and will and can also lead down a sad path. Healthy skepticism is good, though, but not stubborn skepticism. That easily becomes more like fear disguised as skepticism.

I get why they say that Pisces's co-ruler is Jupiter.

Just as Aquarius's planet is Uranus and co ruler is Saturn, to keep that insane, erratic, Earth shaking energy in mild check - Pisces needs Jupiter.

Jupiter is uplifting. Jupiter is hopeful. Jupiter is happy go lucky.

Neptune needs Jupiter, because on its own, Neptune is self destructive, depressed, "what's the point of it all?" they'll feel everything like a raw organ, ungrounded, lost and feel like they're going mad in the Neptunian fog.

Jupiter helps uplift Neptune. Like Eeyore with Tigger as his best friend.

So, in the end, it's not about beating Neptune, but changing perspective about it, changing outlook and how we deal with Neptune. Tapping into Jupiter is key, I think.

There is no conquering it, only learning to work with it.

Learning to flow with the current, rather than against it. Allowing myself to be creative and to daydream, but also maintaining a firm grip on reality. Not making any decisions based on delusions or lies (those that I tell myself or what others have told me). Keeping stable, grounded friends and family. Staying away from drugs and alcohol.

I've had Neptune transiting through my 1st house and opposing my Virgo stellium since 2012. While in Aquarius, it transited my ASC. I also have my Sun, Mercury, and Venus trine Neptune in my natal chart. I've managed to make mistakes with most of the above at some point during the last 6-8 years. But I've also managed to make some of it work for me in positive ways.

Pessimism hasn't helped me through the transit, by the way. In fact, the times when I've been most pessimistic, I've also been depressed, without hope, and generally miserable. I'm pretty sure I would not have survived if I had felt like that the entire time. It's been helpful for me to remain optimistic, with a healthy questioning attitude for that which doesn't seem quite right.

No quoting, please.

Sad but true reality for us Neptunian babies. We're like eternal hippies even before hippy was invented, though not all of us look like the stereotypes. And we just wanna have fun and live and love the world but we're so self aware of how ****** it is, makes it hard to not get sad and gloomy all the time. Being open-minded and continuously learning about the world around you and figuring out ways you can help people, I feel, is the best way for Neptunians to beat our sad and gloomy nature. We need to have fun and share love with others to keep from falling into chaos...

Some folks (involved with the world sports games) would especially appreciate that right now (Beer shortage???!).
