Neptune waves of (Dis)illusion

• Neptune in Virgo: • An idealistic expectation of collective and

individual purity and perfection in all things, of right action.

• An inability to understand why their suffering persists despite every effort to purify and atone for themselves through personal sacrifice.


Neptune in Virgo• Born between the two world wars –

many had fathers who served. Ideal heroes.

Escapism Needs• Children were supposed to be seen

and not heard. • Made do with very few “extras”.• Had to be grateful for what they

had.• Grew up between the Great

Depression & World War II.


Escapism in books, radio stories, dressing up and animation.Every story provided fantasy - albeit they usually had a moral attached – Don’t lie or Don’t be selfish!

Learned not to waste, to endure, work hard, respect tradition, build slowly, work out the details & stick to small budgets.

A deep longing to break free from routine and become Shirley Temple, Huckleberry Finn, The Swallows and Amazons or Katy Carr (What Katy Did).


These expectations are judged against some ultimate standard of conduct. For these people purity and perfection is unconsciously linked to the desire to sacrifice oneself, the ego, to the principle of service to another, others, or the Whole. Even if it means the ultimate sacrifice.

These people find balance when they remove judgmental tendencies and recognize profound understanding of everything in perfection as it is – however banal or strange. Serving the whole without expecting everyone to adopt their beliefs. Of course, they can achieve this on a small budget!

Uranus waves of (R)evolution – AriesJan 13, 1928 – Jun 6, 1934 / Oct 9, 1934 – Mar 27, 1935

Born and raised in a time of economic depression, conflict, revolution and uprising.

This was a time when you had to fight for what was wanted, including individuality, independence and the place in which you stood. People fought for themselves and stood their ground. Respect was given for a good fight rather than from being a good person.

The drive in this group is to initiate change through radical exploration of personal uniqueness while fighting to exert personal expression within the collective.

This wave of Uranus in Aries people were greatly influenced by Chiron in Taurus and carry trauma surrounding their sense of security and self worth. Uranus in this position fights to break free from scarcity and oppression while Chiron forces the individual to confront circumstances in which they feel they are not enough or do not have enough.

Uranus waves of (R)evolution – TaurusJun 6, 1934 - Oct 9, 1934 / Mar 27, 1935 – Aug 7, 1941 / Oct 4,1941 – May 15, 1942

Born and raised in a time noted for conflict, changing societal values, financial fluctuations and rife with clashes between conventional vs unconventional.

This group struggled to preserve material, physical, and financial security and uphold traditional and familiar lifestyle values.

Technological advances and innovations were viewed with suspicion. This wave of individuals resisted change until they could rebel against it no longer.

An apt motto for the collective during this time would be “if it ain't broke, don't fix it”

This wave of Uranus was mainly influenced by Chiron in Gemini and Cancer (although some of the early and late dates would be influenced by Chiron in Taurus and Leo, respectively.) Chiron in Gemini deals with limitations around the ability to express oneself freely and clearly without ramification. Chiron in Cancer threatens the basic sense of security in the face of changing roles within family dynamics and personal safety.

1938 – 1945


• Neptune in Libra: • An idealistic expectation that

all people are essentially pure and good in general, and those that they form intimate relationships with specifically.

• When they realize that they have given themselves away to another, and that they have nothing to show for it but pain and needs that have gone unfulfilled.


An unconscious desire to rescue or save people through masochistic self-sacrifice, a desire to heal the hurts of their intimate partners, and to have their own sufferings and hurts healed by others; and especially by their intimate partners.

Idealistically expect the dynamics of giving and receiving, of equality, of justice, and of fair play to prevail in all human interactions, and especially between themselves and their intimate other.

Members of this generation seek perfection in their relationship. They are not going to accept a substandard marriage just because it’s economically prudent or socially expedient. It just wouldn’t be fair, to them or their partner.


Understanding that true balance in opposites is always fair when looking at the bigger picture, instead of from just one polarity. But in order to know both sides, it’s important to be on one first and then the other. Because…

You don't know what love is…

…Until you've learned the meaning of the blues..

How deep is the ocean…

...How high is the sky?Ray Charles Nina Simone

Uranus waves of (R)evolution – GeminiAug 7, 1941 – Oct 4, 1941 / May 15, 1942 – Aug 30, 1948 / Nov 12, 1948 – Jun 10, 1949

This Uranus wave heralds the end of the Silent Generation and the evolution of mass information sharing via the media in new and innovative ways.

Information networks have branched beyond community borders - we now see the finger on the collective pulse as interest in world events becomes part of daily life.

The changing face of communication shifts how society stays connected to information and the way messages reach people, for good or for not as propaganda was a common tool of mass manipulation to spread fear and disinformation among the masses.

This Wave of Uranus was less impacted by long Chiron transits, rather here we see once wave influenced by Chiron in Cancer, Leo, Virgo, and Libra. We see this play out as densely packed generational karma pertaining to the breakdown of family structure, suppression of expression, PTSD effects of WWII impacting physical and mental health, crippling self criticism and inability to relate to others in healthy, harmonious ways.
