What Neptune in the 7th House means
The 7th House is the axis toward the you — the steady partner, the marriage, the encounter on equal footing — and Neptune soaks this encounter with idealization and longing. You see in the other the highest, often what you dream of, and easily overlook in doing so who really stands before you. Its natural sign is Libra with Venus, so it is about harmony and turning-toward anyway — Neptune heightens that into the boundless and lets you seek merging instead of encounter. So you sometimes draw people who want to be saved, or those who deceive you, because you love the picture and overlook the signs. In love you can give yourself endlessly, forgive, carry along — and lose yourself in doing so, until you hardly know where you end and the other begins. Since the 7th House stands opposite the 1st, your own self, the art here is precisely not to disappear in the we.
