Aries in 2025
HAPPY NEW YEAR! 2025 will be a pivoting year for all mankind on planet earth. It’s a year of transition from Yin to Yang, feminine to masculine (I’m referring to the energies), earth/water to fire/air.
Major transformations on your dreams and people around you.
Pluto in Capricorn since 2008 has transformed your career path and public image over the past 16 years. For the next 20 years, Pluto in Aquarius will influence your social connections, friendships, hopes, dreams, and community. People in your life come and go. You might focus more on helping people in the community or start a humanitarian project. Examine the positions of your natal Pluto, Mars, Scorpio house, Uranus, and 11th house to discern the connections and understand how this significant transit influences you on a natal level.
Spiritual healing and soul growth
For the next 18 months, the shift of the Nodal Axis from Aries/Libra to Virgo/Pisces will guide you towards tremendous spiritual healing and soul growth through compassion, unconditional love, and forgiveness. Trust your intuition. People you meet and events that require decision-making might not always appear obvious and logical. Let go of the need to over-analyze tasks or insist on perfection in your daily work.
An opportunity to do it right this time. Be brave to be creative, enjoy life, nurture yourself!
Mars Retrograde continues until 24 Feb. This is a big astrological event as Mars goes retrograde only every 22-24 months. This is prompting you to reflect on the period from October to December 2024. Mars in retrograde motion can feel like being restrained in a straitjacket, with a strong desire to and be courageous being held back. During the period, did you miss any opportunities to shine, experience joy, or pursue a creative project that you declined? It could also involve preventing your children from doing something they love or a creative project at home that you need to reconsider. A conversation you intended to have with your mother but did not occur? A decision that you made which you feel uncomfortable with now because you did not consider your own self-protection? This is the time to correct them. Being brave and standing up for yourself is a familiar energy to you, Aries. Therefore, you will undoubtedly be able to course correct them.
Be kind to yourself. Learn to let go.
On 31 Mar, Neptune moves into Aries. Neptune changes sign every 14 years. The influence Neptune has on us is a very transient and permeating effect. Since 2011, you might have a prolonged process of soul growth through events that compelled you to reflect inward. You learned to release and let go, be more compassionate and intuitive. Perhaps you began to explore spiritual or esoteric studies such as astrology and meditation. However, from 2025 till 2039, Neptune's ingress into Aries will require you to continue your spiritual practice with a stronger focus on your physical body. Do not be too hard on yourself. Practice self-forgiveness.
Time to fight for yourself! You matter! Revisit boundary issues.
Saturn transitions into Aries on May 26 and remains for the next 2.5 years. Fellow Aries, 2025 marks a significant period for you. With both Saturn and Neptune moving into your sign, you will demonstrate to the world how to be a warrior and advocate for yourself. Emphasis will be on your body, appearance, and overall self. However, Saturn will retrograde back to Pisces on 2 Sep for approximately 4.5 months, guiding you to revisit boundary issues. Is there a relationship that necessitates reconsideration of your vigilance and boundary-setting?
Warm, nurturing and some good news at the home front.
On 10 Jun, Jupiter ingresses into Cancer. For the next twelve months, luck and abundance will shine on the arena of family and home. It may be an opportune time to work on home projects, family planning, and nurture yourself and your loved ones.
Learn to slow down when it’s too much for you to handle. A chance to revisit your personal finances.
Uranus will move into Gemini on 8 Jul. Uranus changes signs every seven years. Over the past seven years, you may have experienced changes in your financial situation or your sense of self-worth. From 2025, you may suddenly be inclined to take up a new course for self-enrichment. There will be a lot of communication and information going around in your life. There could also be sudden changes in situations related to your siblings or close relatives. During the next seven years, be mindful of days when you have information overloaded. Stay calm and always remember to slow down when necessary. Uranus will retrograde back to Taurus on 9 Nov for approximately five months. Utilize this period to revisit situations where you may have overlooked your personal finances and resources or neglected to consider the impact on your self-worth.
A call for spiritual healing and soul searching
On 23 Oct, Neptune retrogrades back into Pisces for the final time. This period is ideal for spiritual healing and cleansing. It may be beneficial to take some time off to reorientate yourself after the influx of new, sudden energies that have been present since early 2025. This is an excellent opportunity for soul searching and self-reflection.
It ain’t over till it’s over
The last quarter of 2025 see all outer planets, (except Pluto) Saturn, Uranus, and Neptune, return to their previous signs for a few more months, extending into early 2026. 2025 will provide a significant preview of the major shifts in energies for the coming years, transitioning from a phase introspection and healing to one of advancement and advocacy. This marks a truly remarkable conclusion and the beginning of a new era.
