I have chosen to depict Neptune in Pisces with the abstract painting of Gerhard Richter - "Sea".
Neptune in Pisces
is "at home" after 160 years of travelling trough other signs which
were not his own. Influenced by other signs, different knowledge and
landscapes, Neptune is finally at home to rest and digest the gained
experiences, in order to better understand himself.
The sea -
the unconscious, the depth, the immense fluidity, the womb, empathy and
grace, the need for love, for poetry and subtle mannerism, the illusion
and unstabillity of our life, the faith - is bringing in front of all of
us, the final introspection reflected in the water / mirroring back our
souls.
Pluto in Capricorn
is a goat, an Underworld Devil- abducting and pushing us to experience
fear, trauma. The death of our old selfs and the transmutation- into a
person aware of the fragility of life.
Becoming the servant of
the depths, of the earth, the soil - is the only way of preserving our
life and sanity, helping and nurishing ourselfs and others in this
sprouting fragility.
Bernini's Persephone is like that rapresenting - immortality and the eternal growth gained after sacrificing our freedom and comodity.
The
German word- Schorck-, a variant of Schurke "villain, scoundrel", was
later applied to the fish due to its predatory behaviour. The texture of
shark skin depicts the cold porosity.
Like other fish, sharks extract oxygen from seawater as it passes over their gills.
Unlike
other fish, shark gill slits are not covered, but lie in a row behind
the head. A modified slit called a spiracle lies just behind the eye,
which assists the shark with taking in water during respiration and
plays a major role in bottom–dwelling sharks.
While the shark
is moving, water passes through the mouth and over the gills in a
process known as "ram ventilation". While at rest, most sharks pump
water over their gills to ensure a constant supply of oxygenated water.
The respiration and circulation process begins when deoxygenated blood travels to the shark's two-chambered heart.
Mars in Scorpio
- (where Mars is at home/ but in a water element), is the symbol of
willpower, fierceness and the killer instinct coming from within, from
observing and making strategies and then taking action.
Even if the animal is vile and cold, the Shark skin
is still porosive and is showing us the capacity to absorb the sea/
unconscious, and like that, communicate with the neptunian ideals. Our
ideals and the God who is directing us.
The religious war in Gaza is one unfortunate example of acting - but on a personal level - Mars in Scorpio Trine Neptune in Pisces- can annulate the negative aspects of each planet and reinforce us to act on more empathic level - with a vituous heart.
In
order to do that, we will first have to purify our water / subconscious
- from toxicity of our everyday thoughts and feelings.
