Neptune in the 1st House 
  *************************************************************** 
  If the planet Neptune is within eight degrees of the Ascendant, the characteristics 
  of this planet will be significantly increased. In addition, any other planetary 
  aspect will play an important influence. When a planet in the first house is close 
  to the Ascendant it is referred to as a rising planet. Marilyn Monroe had Neptune 
  rising in Leo. In a well-aspected chart, your strong imagination will work well for 
  you in art, literature, and your chosen profession. Others may see you as a saint 
  or an angel, admiring your sense of compassion. You could be clairsentient, 
  which means you can actually experience the feelings of another beyond your 
  own feelings. While your empathic gifts are strong, they will require 
  development.  

   
  In a challenging position, Neptune will tend to defuse your personality so that 
  you may appear indecisive. Should this be of concern, you should slowly and 

  carefully develop a well-integrated personality and strive to have a clear 
  direction in life. Perhaps a saintly Scorpio or someone with a transformed Pluto 
  factor will assist you in this regard. However Neptune is affected, its placement 
  here will enhance sensitivity and create high ideals. You can easily lose 
  yourself in a world of imagination. There is often a strong psychic sensitivity 
  which usually manifests as confusion until you evolve in certain spiritual terms. 
  You tend to mold your identity on what others want and expect from you. If 
  nurturing love and harmony was denied in your early years, you may spend 
  your whole life looking for this complete harmony with another person, and you 
  may change yourself to suit person after person to achieve a part of it. The 
  problem is that nobody can really be enough for you if you are not enough for 
  yourself.  
   
  One way to make use of this Neptunian energy is to reveal collective feelings 
  and pictures through some artistic expression. These visions allow you to 
  inspire people who cannot access such formless dimensions so easily. 
  Neptune's broadness and depth enables you to sense what others are feeling 
  and to give them support. Perhaps you will dedicate your whole life to saving 
  and comforting others.
