What does Jupiter square to Neptune

mean?
The answer depends on whether it’s an aspect
occurring in your natal chart, currently forming
in the cosmos (transit-to-transit aspect),
transiting your chart, or happening in a chart
comparison (synastry – relationship astrology).
It also has different meanings when in different
signs.

However, this aspect between planets has


common general themes. The following shows
interpretations of Jupiter in square (90-degree)
aspect to Neptune in these various forms as
well as in general.
When Jupiter and Neptune connect, our
capacity to believe expands and enlarges.
Jupiter-Neptune themes include idealization,
procrastination, and optimism.
In the Natal Chart
With Jupiter square Neptune in the birth chart,
you are especially charitable and sympathetic,
and on an essential level, believe in humanity,
or at least, each individual and their particular
back story. It’s important to be certain that
people who receive your generosity are worth
your efforts, although it can be difficult for you
to practice this kind of skepticism in part
because you don’t want to believe the worst.

Of course, other influences in your chart can


harden you on some levels or incline you to
mistrust, but this aspect points to a basic
desire to trust in others because you don’t
want to live in a world where mistrust is the
norm. The answer, then, is not to give up on
your idealism, but to remind yourself of
practical concerns from time to time and to
watch for unrealistic expectations. Your power
to believe is fantastic.
You may need to perform frequent reality
checks. One of the biggest potential challenges
with this position is the tendency to waste
opportunities by letting them pass by.

Possible Key Traits of Jupiter square Neptune.


You will find some, many, or all of the
following, depending on how strong this aspect

A basic belief in humanity or life itself.


Fundamental optimism, or trust in one’s own
“guardian angel” or equivalent, that sometimes
gets in the way of practical concerns or causes
other such problems.
Some laziness for checking the details of a plan
or situation.
Needs frequent reality checks due to a
runaway imagination.
Strong beliefs.
Very compassionate.
Easily influenced by environmental factors,
medicines, drugs; very impressionable.

procrastinator.
Finds it difficult to put dreams into motion.
Perhaps at its worst, self-justification is
persistent–people with this aspect may make
up morals as they go along, in other words. It
can be convenient to overlook certain rules to
fit the situation. It can be difficult to learn from
our mistakes with the sometimes blind
optimism that everything will work out
mindset of this combination. However, if this
tendency is controlled, there is great
compassion and vision to be found with
Jupiter-Neptune. Certainly, there is much
understanding and tolerance.
