What Neptune in Sagittarius means for you

Neptune was in Sagittarius from 1970 to 1984.

Sagittarius is about belief, travel and wisdom, and Neptune idealises them. This generation grew up with backpacking, new spiritual movements and a more international culture.

If Neptune is close to your personal planets, you are idealistic and spiritual. You search for meaning, and you are attracted to distant places and new ideas.

The challenge is following perfect societies that do not exist, or teachers who are not honest. The strength is a generous, open-minded idea of truth.

Love

You want a partner who shares your search for meaning. Talk honestly about what you expect, so that your ideals do not confuse your relationship.

Work & money

You do well in teaching, travel, publishing, spirituality and international causes. You inspire people with your ideas.
