artist's conception of Neptune as seen from Triton it's largest moon

The power of Neptune can be seen working in our lives on so many levels that it absolutely boggles the mind! Most of us, however, are largely unaware of the all-pervasive influence this mysterious and fascinating planet has on us and the rest of the solar system, and will continue to have in the years ahead. At the outskirts of our system, Neptune is in an ideal position to rule over the collective nature of our beings. Even rogue and distant Pluto does not entirely escape its vast and entangling net.

Neptune was discovered in 1846, and is the planet of dreams and the subconcious, ruling over at least one third of our daily lives. It's discovery coincided with the rise of religious sects and secret societies, the use of oil and steam for power, and a growing collective awareness or unity through such visual media as film and television. Neptune's power is the power of subtlety and suggestion.

In 2010, Neptune made one full orbit around the sun(and through all twelve zodiac signs) since its discovery, signifying an important stage in our collective awareness -an ability to to see, understand, and deal with the various illusions or misconceptions that humans as a whole have been living under. Neptune is the planet of Maya, which means "illusion".
