Mercury moves so fast that a transit usually only lasts for a day, trine Jupiter, it could mean a lot of phone calls, emails, mental wanderings. It's pretty light.
Venus moves a little slower, not by much, and when Venus Squares Neptune, a lot of people go "yikes, a Square!". Squares only increase energy. Venus is nice, Neptune is nice, so increase that energy and it's double nice. Ok?
This is from "Planets in Transit" by Robert Hand
"Venus Square Neptune
This transit stimulates your romantic imagination to a considerable degree, making you somewhat unrealistic in your dealings with loved ones. Usually this is not serious; this transit may bring pleasant times of soft lights and romantic reveries. Daydreaming is also a characteristic of this transit, which is fine unless it interferes with necessity. In fact, this daydreaming tendency can manifest itself as artistic inspiration. If you are an artist, creativity of a high order can result.
In relationships you must be most careful. You may expect your loved one to life up to an impossible romantic ideal that no one could or should try to attain. Relationships must operate in the real world, but today you do not want to deal with reality. You may feel that real mortals are disappointing, and prefer your fantasies. In most cases this transit has a short effect, constituting a passing mood and not a source of real problems. But fantasy could be a permanent part of a relationship started today, and that is something you should avoid. Any relationship that begins now should be experienced over a long period of time before making commitments.
At its worst this transit can signify a breakdown of a relationship, which could be damaging to your ego. But do not take your disapointment too hard. Relationships that are damaged by this transit do not usually have a basis in reality to begin with. "
Hope that helps some.
