Essential dignity
How tradition rates Neptune in Gemini
In Gemini, Neptune answers to the sign’s traditional ruler, Mercury, and has no modern dignity of its own.
The classical scores do not apply: the table is older than Neptune’s discovery in 1846. Modern astrologers give it Pisces as home and Virgo as detriment.
