Conjunction - 0°
Two planets occupy the same degree, merging their energies into a single concentrated point
Neptune conjunctions are among the most disorienting transits because Neptune dissolves whatever it touches. When Neptune reaches the degree of Chiron, the boundaries, definitions and certainties associated with that area of life begin to soften, blur, or dissolve entirely. This is not destruction - it is dissolution. The difference matters.
What Neptune removes was never as solid as it appeared. What remains after a Neptune conjunction tends to be more authentic, more spiritually connected, and less dependent on external validation. This transit unfolds over roughly two years and is often experienced as confusion, idealisation, heightened sensitivity, or a sense of losing one's footing in the area governed by Chiron. Creative and spiritual life often flourishes during this period, even as practical matters become harder to pin down. This transit typically unfolds over one to two years, often making multiple passes as Neptune moves slowly through the degrees.
Neptune conjunct natal Chiron is associated with one of the most spiritually significant encounters with your core wound. Neptune dissolves the defences and coping mechanisms that have kept the wound manageable, exposing it to a wider, more cosmic perspective. This can feel like a spiritual crisis or a spiritual healing - or both simultaneously. Astrologers have linked this transit to periods where the wound feels overwhelming because the usual boundaries around it have dissolved, where compassion for your own suffering deepens profoundly, where the wound connects you to collective pain in ways that are both meaningful and destabilising and where healing happens through surrender rather than strategy.
