5th Harmonic aspects

Post by Venus_Daily »

Aug 22, 2015
I have recently gone over the 5th harmonic aspects in my chart after reviewing a previous thread on the subject, and 2 of the objects seem to fit my like a glove, which are Mars/Neptune. This planetary duo is described as dopamine driven,
...individuals born under strong Mars-Neptune vibrations have a tendency to take themselves too seriously. They expend a tremendous amount of energy in behalf of their ideals or, in symbolism, their visions - to the degree where each and every hankering becomes nearly an obsession.
Mars-Neptune is the "spoiled brat" aspect of birth-charts. The aggressive instincts of Mars when filtered through the vagueness of Neptune behave like Stephen Leakcock's rider who mounted his horse and rode off in all directions.
What I wanted to know is if this celestial duet was also high for people with neurotransmitter imbalance and even ADHD.
My life has become like that now, although I probably never noticed that it already was, I basically started out with small goals, and when I projected those onto people, and they withdrew from me in anyway was when I noticed my largest struggles with depression. It has basically turned into, if I get rid of this stretch mark, get a nip tuck here or there, get the best grades, I'll be happy, but that surge in dopamine never converts into serotonergic contentment and bliss like it should for some reason. In fact that fanatical zeal is probably a symptom of the frontal lobe not functioning properly after being exposed to excessively high levels of dopamine. What I first noticed myself saying when I was noticing the signs of major depressive disorder, runaway ADD, and anxiety was "I just want to be content". Neptune and Mars is sort of that dangling a carrot stick in front of the rabbit's face, if the rabbit somehow manages to break free from the trap and get the carrot he immediately realizes the carrot tastes nothing like he expected it to taste, in fact it usually tastes awful if the rabbit is not prepared to deal with the reality.

No data on which to base an answer. But think in terms of the behavior more than the neurochemical cause, and you might find answers to the inquiry in the rest of your post.

The fact my aspect structure is so integrated makes distinction between aspects difficult for me sometimes. And mine is a sextile.
But friend 'T' has a conjunction and I really notice it. It is as if he is chasing after what he imagines in his own mind as the correct and most desirable option and the way he dramatically expresses this desire is bizarre. It is like nothing else matters at the time but his mission. He will persist. And he is persuasive. Sexually anxious. Talks way too much. Leans in allot. Seems like his object of desire is right in front of him but out of reach.
After an undesirable outcome, he sides with rejection and he makes up a self criterion of pity and false rationalization. I know its false because what he says is like a tragic ending to a story starring him and his imagination/dreams/goals.
I believe the native must have a reality check before noticing the pattern of this aspect. For me I think the meds helped with my depression/anxiety. But I still give into temptation more than liked, and when I do, I have regrets unless I hit big.
