I had a shopper who instructed me of a “shared delusion” she had along with her ex.  I’d by no means heard the phrase earlier than. I used to be intrigued.

I requested her questions, whereas I searched the time period. I discovered it tied to a different time period, “shared psychotic dysfunction“. Principally, an individual has some delusion. The individual close to them, their accomplice, presumably, believes the delusion. I’m tying this to Venus (relationship) Neptune (delusion).

I’ve Venus sq. Neptune in my chart.  It appears it might make me inclined to this sort of factor. It’s scary but it surely’s additionally true! I am weak on this means. I spotted this after I may tick off quite a few examples of instances in my life when this has occurred.

I can’t say I’m comfy with this! Nevertheless it’s severe and I feel ought to put this out right here on the prospect would possibly assist somebody. I additionally wish to supply an instance to restrict the confusion that may be attributable to this…

I as soon as knew this individual; I used to be very near him. We met as teenagers.

He was a prodigy. We had been each prodigies, in our personal means. However he left the nation for specialised coaching and nurturing of his expertise.  It was a communist nation.

A number of years later he returned. When he got here house, he thought individuals had been following him.  He mentioned he was adopted on this different nation as a result of he was American.

This sounded possible.  However he thought they had been nonetheless following him after he obtained house. This sounded much less possible however attainable?

In actuality, my good friend had(has) a significant psychological sickness.  This obtained to some extent the place he thought somebody was following him in his automobile.  He obtained pissed off and maneuvered so he may get behind the automobile following him. He started following them, so they may see what it was like!

He obtained proper up on the bumper of this different automobile. He was infuriated and the individuals within the automobile that was by no means following him, as a result of frightened. They pulled right into a comfort retailer and referred to as the police. The police got here and so they argued in car parking zone – he’s following me – no, THEY WERE FOLLOWING ME”.

However even after a state of affairs like that, I’d nonetheless have the capability to consider the automobile might need been following my good friend. I imply, how can we all know?

I’ve additionally written about Jim Jones and the mass suicide (search the location). My husband needed to go clear these our bodies up.  That was one other “shared delusion” on a special scale.

I’m scripting this as a result of it got here up at the moment but it surely additionally appears significantly related as most individuals consider that half the phrase resides in delusion – not their half in fact!

What have you learnt about Venus aspecting Neptune and “shared delusion”.
