Neptune in Aries Transit

– the start of a new 165-year cycle

Neptune has a reputation for being a mystical and elusive planet, representing dreams, intuition, and spiritual exploration. It’s a very slow-moving planet like Pluto and Uranus, and when one of these planets moves sign, a big fundamental change comes about (and they are all changing signs from earth and water signs into fire and air signs within 18 months of each other).

As we approach the upcoming transit of Neptune in Aries, occurring from 30th March 2025 until 2039, even though it retrogrades back to Pisces from October 2025 until January 2026, we can look back at the last Neptune in Aries period…

From ChatGPT...

'Historically, the last time Neptune entered Aries was from 1861 to 1875. This period coincided with significant global upheaval, most notably the American Civil War, which aimed to abolish slavery. The qualities of Aries – courage, action, and initiation – combined with Neptune’s influences led to a radical push for freedom and transformation. Such transits often usher in a time of bold ideals and movements, pushing society toward change.

During that era, the spirit of independence emerged in a big way. Activists and visionaries arose, fueled by a desire for liberty and justice. Neptune's alignment brought a surge in artistic and spiritual expressions. This historical backdrop suggests that the upcoming transit of Neptune in Aries may similarly prompt significant cultural and ideological shifts.

Neptune in Pisces has been a dreamy era and not always in a good way. Neptune has been in Pisces since 2011. This transit has heavily emphasized spirituality, creativity, and emotional depths. During this period, there has been an increase in the popularity of spiritual practices, including mindfulness, energy healing, and yoga.

With Neptune in Pisces there are no boundaries, a borderless digital world has opened up to us and immigration has been a big theme. This transit has had its challenges including feelings of confusion, illusion, and disillusionment.

As we prepare for the shift into Neptune in Aries, several themes are likely to emerge. We can anticipate a rise in self-expression and independence, more self sufficiency, more people going 'off grid' and the end of the adoration of the celebrity as we've known it as Neptune also represents the film and entertainment industry.

There also lies an opportunity for bold dreams, vital actions and less watching from the sidelines and dreaming. Aries just does it.

But whatever comes about with this transit, a new adventure awaits us.
