Neptune in Aries marks a shift from dreaming to daring
Neptune entered Aries again on Monday, January 26. We had a preview of what Neptune in Aries was going to feel like from March 30, 2025 to October 22, 2025. Neptune got as far as 2 degrees Aries before stationing retrograde and asking us to start reviewing the Aries area of our chart followed by what felt like a very long retrograde back to 29 degrees Pisces (or is that just me? 2025 was rough 😂).
✨ What came up for you during this time?
✨ What were you reviewing and making finishing touches on?
✨ Did you let anything go?
✨ What happened that surprised you?
Now, Neptune has re-entered Aries for a solid 12 year transit (until May 22, 2038 when for a brief time Neptune will enter Taurus before stationing retrograde and traveling back into Aries. Something to keep in mind because astrology is the study of the quality of time, but for now, we’ll focus on Neptune in Aries.)
Neptune in Aries is going to create a collective shift from emotive watery depths to fiery dreams and actions. This change is going to take some time to get used to. You may notice that what felt ideal before no longer does. It’s possible that feelings of disillusionment could come over you and others in a way you’ve never experienced. Pay attention to what you’re drawn to and how it makes you feel or act. Explore what makes you feel driven.
This is your once in a lifetime opportunity to experience Neptune in Aries. You may not have the time to keep up with how quickly things change or fluctuate or you may not have the energy or interest to take notes.
Prepare yourself for getting well acquainted with the Aries area of your birth chart because Saturn re-enters Aries on February 13…
