"Vague, dreamy thoughts which lack clarity and direction could
cause confusion in your daily routine. You may feel as if you're
walking in fog...not being able to clearly see what's directly
ahead. Deception and dishonesty can also be associated with this
Neptune transit.
Unable to concentrate for any length of time, responsibilities
and professional duties may be neglected...or even ignored.
Therefore, important personal or business decisions and
negotiations should be temporarily postponed until this transit
has passed.
Drained physical energy and excessive self inflicted worry could
now make you prone to nervous illness or disease. However, do
beware relying too heavily on drugs or alcohol. Perhaps it's
time to escape to a more tranquil setting - escape your everyday
environment for a few days in order to rest and re-align mind,
body and soul." (linda-goodman.com)
"Be extremely careful in all practical affairs at this time. You tend to overlook details, forget to consider some aspect of a problem, and make silly mistakes. Forgetfulness can be a serious problem. For example, you might drive somewhere (for example, the bank) and then discover, upon arriving there, that you forgot something (for example, your bank book). In business negotiations, you forget to ask about certain details, and then discover later that you wish you had. Any major decision, such as a career decision or a large purchase such as a home, is very tricky now because of the large number of factors and possible issues that you can neglect to consider. By taking the time to go over all details, you can avoid a lot of problems and confusions! You may be tempted to trust your intuition, but it is best at this time to also double-check all important matters carefully. You are also somewhat gullible and easily deceived or manipulated now, so be very careful in dealings with others. Avoid any transactions or agreements with persons who seem like they might be somewhat dishonest because they probably are!
While lack of attentiveness and forgetfulness make this time period a difficult one for practical affairs, you can expand your awareness in intuitive areas. Any area of a psychic, spiritual, religious, or metaphysical nature is more interesting to you now than usual. Fantasy, fiction, art, music, movies, and drama are also appealing. Pursue these areas now; they open you up to new ways of seeing the world, and activate your creative imagination. This is an excellent time for learning and exploring new ideas and experiences in any of these areas. This is the time to break out of some of your accustomed ways of thinking, and explore new possibilities that you are normally oblivious to. Be careful, however, in making decisions or changes in life style based on your new perceptions and ideas. For example, you may be tempted to adopt a new religious path or embrace a new philosophical perspective on life; wait until a later time to make these kinds of decisions. Now is the time to receive new ideas and explore them, not to make important decisions or commitments." (grupovenus.com)

Neptune in the 12th House
"Neptune in the twelfth house imposes an influence on issues in the realm of your subconscious. A twelfth house Neptune sometimes produces fears and neurotic problems arising from the past. There is a tendency to be deeply involved with the unfortunate side of life. You may have a great compassion for people who are the outcasts of society, or those with physical or mental problems. This is an indicator of deep introspection and sometimes a cloistered life, preferring this to the commotion of the mundane sphere." (http://www.astrology-numerology.com)
"An inclination toward retreat, reverie and mysticism is what we might expect when the individual experiences the primal longing unadulterated by any surrogate. The gift of receptivity to such powerful redemptive images is also the gift of the artist. Commitment to a religious or spiritual path may offer consolation to Neptune's melancholy and world-weariness, and may provide a means of redeeming not only one's own loneliness but the victims of the past. Neptune in the 12th may shoulder the burden of redeeming family sin and unhappiness, and is particularly prone to identification with the suffering savior. For this reason, the individual with Neptune in the 12th, if unconscious and unformed, may become a scapegoat or vessel for family conflicts which go back over many generations. Certain forms of mental and physical disintegration, which embody an accrued family background of misery and difficulty, may be connected to Neptune in the 12th if the individual cannot contain his or her inner experiences. It is in this context that we may link drug addiction to this placement of the planet.
The line between Neptune in the 12th as visionary, artist, and healer, and Neptune in the 12th as addict, invalid or psychotic, is very fluid. Neptune placed in this house teaches us a good deal about our extremely limited and sometimes downright stupid definitions of sanity. The mystical or "oceanic" peak experience is not uncommon with Neptune in the 12th, and it can be redemptive and life-enhancing. Yet the individual may be so overwhelmed that he or she identifies utterly with being God's mouthpiece. This may, in certain contexts, be appropriate; Neptune in the 12th is more likely than most to recognize the essential divinity in the whole of life. It is only when primary narcissism dominates the stage, and no one else is granted the same status, that we may begin to worry. Neptune's apparent madness may be eminently sane, although attuned to the inner rather than the outer world. But there are some individuals with Neptune in the 12th, particularly if it forms stressful aspects with important personal planets, who are unable to maintain their boundaries against the flooding of the collective psyche. They may act out the traditional meaning of the 12th house, and spend their lives permanently or intermittently confined." (http://neptune-in-sagittarius.tribe.net)
"Neptune in the 12th House gives a person access to limitless grace in the form of ability to access understanding, which is possible, only when the partial view has been transcended. This placement may also confer considerable psychic ability, particularly in the form of clairvoyance.
As with Uranus in H12, however, a person needs to know he has this potential and put himself in a position where it can be developed, or he may have no conception of what is available to him.
People with Neptune in H12 are frequently born to parents who pride themselves on their practical sense and realism. The child is usually brought up to ‘look after number one’. From this bleak and unappealing world, the child with Neptune in H12 tends to retreat into a private realm of fantasy. The aspects made by Neptune to the inner planets will determine the extent to which the fantasies can be translated into a form which others can share or whether they remain locked away in a person’s mind. Regardless of whether a person with Neptune in H12 is able to channel its influence into artistic or literary form, he will in his daily life, be capable of acts of the most extra-ordinary selflessness. They may be sporadic and he may be disinclined to divulge his own motives but such acts are usually prompted by compassion for a person or animal in distress. The cost to himself whether reckoned in time, effort or cash, is often considerable. Secretiveness, bordering on the obsessive, is common with Neptune in its own House and there may be a tendency to hide behind images and aliases." (http://www.dkfoundation.co.uk)
Good 12th house article
"The twelfth house is Neptune's natural abode, so if Neptune is well-aspected, with sufficient self-discipline you will have a strong, authentic spiritual and/or psychic life. You also may have a strong and sometimes overly active—or potentially hallucinatory—imagination. Due to your extreme sensitivity, you experience stress on subconscious levels that can affect your health. You tend to be afraid of somehow being confined or locked up, or have a tendency towards confining yourself. If Neptune is afflicted, you can feel like an exile far from home on a foggy night, unable to clearly see where you're going. You may have vague, disturbing fears related to your emotional self-expression unless Neptune is well-aspected." (http://www.myastrologybook.com)
