On Monday, 4th of April 2011. Neptune entered Pisces where it stayed until early August when he returned again in Aquarius and entered Pisces on 3rd February 2012. Epochal event, the astrologers would say. Although, it looks like that every few months we have some “epochal” event that “very rarely repeats itself.”
The last time Neptune was located at this place was in the period 1847 / ’48, Just months after it was first observed from Earth. We can say that this was his first “birthday” since the moment when it was awakened in the collective conscious and his approaching the end of the Zodiac reflects the major changes taking place within the mankind.
Neptune is the end of the trip, for any individual, any group or any country. The things that Saturn tightly held within its borders and Uranus destroyed with its thunder, so we could “crack open” as an individual, now are dissolved in Neptune’s sea of total equilibrium. There are no more black, white, left-right, pretty ugly … all are equal, all are one big ocean, and all are linked to recognition. It is not surprise that during the last stay in Pisces Neptune was the time when communism was conceived, the desire to equalize all classes into one big “commune.” Current political situation in the world presignifies appearance of some similar movements.
In fact, Neptune in Pisces talks about the arrival of time when new ideals will overwhelm the humanity. The ideals in which people fed up with material world will seek the meaning of their existence. Misconceptions are certain; promises will be glamorous, because it is one of the main characteristics of Neptune. People want to be part of something “bigger” and “meaningful” so they “drown” in glamorous social events where alcohol and drugs blur their state of mind, seek inspiration in the concerts, “great artists” and even greater spiritual gurus. They want to rip all the connections with the real world and rise above the banality so they attend yoga and Reiki classes, visit astrologers and tarot masters … in hope that it will save them from the meaninglessness of individuality in which they fell in.
It is these things that will Neptune in Pisces put to the test because there is no solution in Pisces, this is the end of the road, end of the Zodiac in which all blends into one, the one big chaos from which will only the clearest ideals filter out when Neptune enters Aries in mid-2025, and this is just the beginning …
Music is a very strong reflection of changes in the collective consciousness of humanity, and Neptune’s motions are directly related to these events. His discovery in the mid 19th century marked the era of Romanticism as a reaction to excessive industrial rationalization and his transitions from one Zodiac sign to another signifies some form of musical change.
The last entry in Aquarius 1998th coincided with the cessation of the existence of clearly defined styles of music, especially with regard to combining electronic sounds in almost all styles and electronic music alone emerged in the mid 1980’s during Neptune’s entry into Capricorn. It is realistic to expect some recognizable musical directions over the next fifteen years.
