The Astrology of 2025: A Year of Transitions and Letting Go

What a year it’s going to be! There’s a sense that everything’s changing, yet our daily lives don’t bear evidence of the shift. We are stepping across a threshold into a new chapter that will fully happen in 2026 when Neptune, Saturn, and Uranus all enter their new respective signs and stay for longer planetary cycles.

This year, though, several notable planetary shifts signal a year that invites us to close chapters, embrace uncertainty, and shape our futures.

One of the most significant shifts of 2025 is the North Node’s transition into Pisces on January 11, highlighting the themes of healing, healthcare, mysticism, compassion, and dreams. The North Node acts like a cosmic compass—wherever it goes, it draws our focus to the themes represented by that sign.

This shift also brings the lessons of its opposing South Node in Virgo, suggesting that while expanding into a more compassionate mindset, we’re leaving behind any over-reliance on rigid perfectionism or anxious detail orientation. It’s a dance between practical discernment (Virgo) and universal love and oneness (Pisces).

Throughout 2025, Neptune and Saturn dip into Aries, the pioneering warrior sign. Neptune is the planet of dreams, illusions, and spiritual longing. Moving into Aries, it’s like catching a glimpse of a spark that lights up new possibilities. This transit amplifies inspired action, urging us to take leaps of faith toward our deepest visions.

With Neptune dipping in and out of Aries this year, we experience waves of idealism paired with the courage to try new things. There’s a push to create something meaningful—a spiritual cause, an innovative social movement, or an artistic experiment.

Saturn, the planet of structure and responsibility, tests our commitment to our goals. In Aries, it supports our willingness, dedication, and conviction to those individuated goals. Saturn’s energy in Aries encourages new beginnings, personal leadership, and forging a path that aligns with our authentic desires. The lesson is to marry vision with discipline—revolutionary impulses anchored by real-world follow-through.

2025 could feel like a trial run to 2026 and beyond. We have these short windows where we glimpse the future. .

Later in 2025, Uranus—the planet of change, liberation, and breakthroughs—begins its move into Gemini, the sign of communication, ideas, and transportation. Gemini rules all things related to information exchange—languages, media, technology. Uranus in Gemini can mean massive shifts in connecting and sharing knowledge. Expect leaps in technology or unexpected revelations about social networks, AI, or new forms of learning. Also, we’ll see transportation changes.

2025 is a transition period— a pivot point: we are closing chapters and preparing to open new ones, guided by intuition, courage, and a willingness to shape the future. It may feel like something is ending, but this “ending” is also the dawn of renewal—an open door to a more inspired, connected, and visionary way of being.

Read your horoscope below:

  • The year begins with your ruling planet, Mars, going retrograde, which can feel like moving in slow motion. Mars moves back into Cancer on January 6, making you want to change everything from the layout of your home to the color of your bathroom towels. The good news is that retrogrades are a time for reassessment, not action. Focus on tying up loose ends rather than starting new projects, and move forward after March 29, when the solar eclipse in your sign signals a breakthrough that lets the universe step on the gas pedal.

    Mars retrograde (until February 23) also sets the tone for your relationships. Frustrations may build up, but they won't resolve after April 17, when Mars enters Leo. Early in the year, you may be more focused on your career. Saturn and Neptune move between Pisces and Aries throughout the year, indicating when you'll be immersed in the mystical while living in the practical. You can build a solid foundation for your dreams, but you could face some relationship challenges as a hallmark of personal growth.

    Venus retrogrades in your sign from March 1 to April 12, urging you to reflect on your relationships. It is a period of negotiation where you'll explore the balance between your individual needs and partnership dynamics. The two-week period from March 14-29, during which the eclipses, Venus and Mercury retrograde culminate, motivating misunderstandings or relationship mishaps. As Neptune moves through Aries from March 30 to October 22, you may question your current relationships, particularly if they don't align with your deeper dreams or desires.

    By April, Pluto opposes Mars, bringing heightened romantic energy. Mars in Leo (April 17 – June 17) invites passion and sensuality, though it could stir up drama. Significant changes in your home and personal life are likely as the year progresses, especially during the September eclipses. Conflicts in relationships could come to a head, but they'll also offer opportunities for growth and understanding.

    The end of the year will bring some stability, particularly around December, when Mars enters Capricorn. This grounded influence can help you create lasting security in your relationships.

  • What a year it is going to be! Expect major chapters to close as Uranus, the rebel planet, moves out of your sign, bringing you a much-needed reprieve from the whirlwind of activity you've endured over the past seven years. This shift marks the start of a year focused on clarifying your goals and intentions, with new systems put in place to achieve them. As the outer planets move into fire and air signs this summer, the sky's the limit.

    There could be a few bumps in the road as Venus, your ruling planet, goes retrograde from March 1 through April 12. Romantic confusion may sometimes feel like a comedy of errors, but this retrograde period offers the opportunity to repair relationships. You may encounter misunderstandings or find yourself questioning whether to stay or go in certain circumstances. But let's face it—you're in it for the long haul. Trust that your persistence will lead to rewards.

    From July 7 to November 7, Uranus dips into Gemini, bringing breakthrough moments in your financial mindset. Remember: abundance doesn't always have to come through hard work. This year, it's about being receptive and allowing the universe to bring what you need.

    Pluto's movement through Aquarius helps you become a more influential thought leader. You may receive opportunities to speak publicly or take a stand on important issues. It's a year for career excellence, so stay open to new possibilities that align with your vision for the future. Saturn in Pisces brings extra support in solidifying commitments and encourages you to dedicate yourself to a new vision. While this may mean letting go of past dreams or collaborations that didn't pan out, trust that these setbacks were necessary stepping stones toward something greater.

    Jupiter enters Cancer on June 9, inspiring you to expand your social circles. November brings a sentimental mood that may inspire beautiful memories and romantic connections. If you're single, mid-November could mark a turning point, allowing love to warm your heart. For those already in relationships, this period brings an opportunity to deepen your emotional connection and celebrate your bond.

  • There are two ways to ride a roller coaster: you can grip the bar tightly as the ride twists and turns or throw your hands in the air and enjoy the thrill, trusting you'll arrive safely at the end. Think about this metaphor as you move into the year ahead. Your sign receives a jolt of electricity and excitement, sparking rapid change in your life and in the world around you. Uranus, the planet of rebellion and change, dips into your sign from July 7 – November 7, setting the stage for a period of exhilaration. Over the next seven years, you will be at the forefront of societal shifts shaping future generations. The choices you make now will propel you toward shaping your destiny.

    From May to September, Saturn and Neptune move through Aries, ushering in peak activity in your professional and social life. You may find yourself drawn to political causes, social groups, or charitable work. You might also consider shifting your business model to include community-driven projects or membership-based services—these ventures could be highly profitable for you. Don't let fear hold you back; pick up the megaphone and speak!

    In the first part of the year, Jupiter shines in your sign, asking you to dream big and prioritize joy. However, Mars is retrograde until late February, slowing things down, particularly in finances. You may encounter delays in receiving payments or balancing your budget. Be patient; this, too, will pass.

    Soon after Mars goes direct, goes retrograde in March, from the 1st to the 12th, which may bring frustration in your relationships. Before those cortisol levels rise, make time for self-reflection. Jupiter's move into Cancer on June 9 helps bring balance to your cash flow, potentially alleviating financial stress in your partnership and motivating cash flow to offset any expenditures.

    The September eclipses stir significant changes in your home and personal life. The eclipse on September 7 serves as an initiation, alerting you to any necessary shifts in your family dynamics or living situation. The September 21 eclipse marks the end of a difficult period and the beginning of a fresh start. You are learning to choose yourself over obligations, letting go of any guilt associated with putting your needs first.

  • Let's start with the good news. Jupiter, the planet of love, abundance, and blessings without strings attached, enters your sign in June. This planetary ingress starts a 12-month cycle where your heart opens wide to receive all the universe offers. Jupiter shines hope like a bright light in moments of longing or despair. Let this hope remain steady, even amid the more erratic energies that may arise in 2025.

    The first quarter of the year might feel like learning to drive a car with a manual transmission —there will be stops and starts, with progress made in increments. Mars is retrograde until February 23, which suggests a stifling of your usual spark of energy and motivation. You might even feel frustration mounting without an obvious outlet. Remember, not every battle needs to be fought; sometimes, stepping back is your most powerful move.

    Saturn dips into Aries from May 24 to September 1, bringing a surge of conviction in professional disputes or conflicts. With Mars staying in your sign until April 26, the first quarter of the year could be full of ambition, lending you a stubborn streak to pursue your goals.

    The North Node enters Pisces on January 11, and you can discover the gift of alchemy through specific spiritual practices like rituals or full moon meditations. Your whole worldview is expanding, drawing you to new destinations, especially in March and September when the eclipses spark a deeper inquiry about life's philosophical questions.

    As the year progresses, October and November bring a full-circle evolution of the heart. Welcome the possibility of new love or deepening a commitment with someone close. Mid-November introduces a Grand Water Trine that aligns Uranus, Neptune, and the Sun, gushing a flow of heart-chakra energy to heal and nurture. It is a time for an experience of love beyond your imagination, but it requires your participation in purifying resentment and allowing yourself to welcome goodness.

  • With the Sun as your sign's guardian, you are always ready to shine, but this year throws the curtains open and aims the spotlight on you. With Pluto in your opposite sign and the other outer planets shifting gears, it's a year to own your personal power, reconnect with your passions, and embody courage, like your sign's symbol, the lion.

    The year kicks off with a slow start, as Mars goes retrograde until February 23, urging you to reflect on your current path and the choices that have brought you to this point. This retrograde started in your sign on December 6, which might bring stagnation or frustration. Take this time to reassess your ambitions, ensuring they align with your heart's desires.

    Neptune enters Aries on March 30, and Saturn joins it on May 24, making for a turbo-charged season of life. What can't you accomplish with these outer planets in the pioneering warrior sign, Aries? You've waited your whole life for this moment. Imagine the possibilities! If you've been feeling uncertain about your direction, Neptune's light shines on your dreams, and Saturn's influence gives you the fortitude to realize them.

    Jupiter, the planet of expansion and abundance, enters Cancer for its year-long movement through that sign on June 9. This transit highlights your spiritual path, allowing you to connect with the invisible realms, whether through psychological exploration of your subconscious mind or consultation with your favorite psychic medium.

     The eclipses along the Pisces/ Virgo axis line could lead to catharses in your finances, especially in March and September. Throughout the year, the North Node teaches you to trust others' generosity without guilt. Your focus will be centered on building wealth, but that may require you to stick to a budget.

    Love asks you to open your heart this year, accepting your partner's idiosyncrasies and basking in gratitude. As Uranus shifts into Gemini from July 7 – November 7, you get a reprieve from household stressors or upsets. This transit offers a preview of what the next 7 years will bring. Let hope be your driving force, closing the year and preparing for 2026.

  • After years of being bewitched and bewildered by Neptune in your opposite sign, 2025 brings you out of dreamland and into reality. Neptune's fog has sent you on a spiritual quest, guiding you toward hidden treasures. But now, it's time to ground those spiritual gifts and put your creative talents into practical action.

    Your health will be a significant focus this year. The South Node enters your sign on January 11, urging you to protect your energy and focus on your top priorities. The following 18 months are a timeline for reassessing your wellness and avoiding getting bogged down by others' demands. It is your time to nurture your heart's calling.

    The March 14 and 29 eclipses will introduce new ideas and curiosities, signaling turning points in your life. How you respond to relationship or career stress will have lasting effects, especially as Uranus enters Gemini on July 7, bringing sudden changes and surprises in your career. You're about to experience rapid expansion, primarily through communication. Be open to unexpected opportunities and be willing to leap at the right moment.

    Professionally, your journey has been unclear, but Neptune eases some of that pressure in 2025 while Saturn asks you to make new commitments. This year is about building solid partnerships that will support your long-term success. Life may feel like a daring adventure, but only if you surrender your need to know the future and trust in the process.

    Jupiter enters Cancer in June, helping you form meaningful connections and experience abundance through community.

    The year closes with love on your mind and heart as Mercury retrogrades in November, guiding you to reconnect with people from your past and reflect on your journey. The opportunities and changes of 2025 will set the stage for a new era in your life—get ready for a grand awakening.

  • Psst… don't tell the other signs, but your sign is most likely to have a phenomenal year! Uranus dips into Gemini from July 7 – November 7, and it forms a harmonious aspect to Pluto in Aquarius, setting you up for a free flow of intellectual energy to brainstorm, collaborate, and complete remarkable feats. Throughout the year, you're reaching new destinations, mentally and physically. Have your passport ready; you're going to fly!

    This year, expect moments of tension that will push you to live more authentically, especially in relationships. Things will move too fast for your comfort zone, so be intentional with your thoughts, words, and actions. Every decision you make this year makes a lasting imprint, so stay focused on your most purposeful priorities.

    In light of this fast movement, your health will be of primary importance. Make time to maintain the proper balance of body, mind, and spirit. Take an integrated approach to wellness, especially during the eclipse months of March and September.

    From March 1 to April 12, Venus, your ruling planet, goes retrograde, creating a period of reflection in your love life. You may question the direction of your relationships or find yourself re-evaluating what you truly need from a partnership. While Venus retrograde can bring emotional confusion, it also offers the opportunity to gain insight and heal areas that may have been overlooked.

    Neptune dips into your opposite sign from March 30 – October 22, making it a time of heightened romance. Give yourself reality checks often through grounding practices and therapeutic conversations. The rosy tint through which you see things may not give you a clear picture. Saturn also dips into Aries from May 24 to September 1, and any fantasy bubbles could burst, allowing you to let go of unrealized dreams and adjust your focus.

    Uranus enters Gemini in July, offering a liberated approach to communication and self-expression. Let go of your inner censor! It is a period of luck, but your attitude determines whether you'll experience good or bad luck. Keep your mindset free from regret or rumination about missed opportunities.

    Jupiter's entry into Cancer on June 9 will illuminate your career, inviting you to embrace your ambition without hesitation. Finances could be a focal point, but this is a time to focus more on your purpose than a paycheck. Your challenge is to balance depth and passion with practicality, finding an equilibrium between your heart's desires and real-world responsibilities. While this may seem daunting, no one is better equipped to handle this balancing act.

  • Scorpio, you crave depth in your connections, and this year's astrology suggests a satiation of that desire. Fractured relationships can heal under the light of Neptune's final journey through Pisces from October 22 to December 26. The universe presents an opportunity to reconcile with past wounds and mend relationships that may have been broken. The healing energy of Neptune encourages you to embrace forgiveness, both for yourself and others, creating space for deeper, more meaningful relationships.

    For the second half of the year, time speeds up, urging you to be intentional with your thoughts, words, and actions. How you choose to spend your time will matter, so it's important to ensure that your choices align with your top priorities. This year is a call to focus on what truly matters and let go of distractions that pull you away from your heart's urges.

    You may experience a shift in your approach to communication as Uranus, the planet of change, moves into Gemini from July 7 – November 7. You could find yourself reconsidering how you express your thoughts, particularly in relationships. Your daily routine gets a shake-up, either because of your finances or family life changes. You're making a significant turning point in trusting others, and you could grow more willing to love with your raw, unedited self.

    The spring months, especially between March and April, may bring some emotional turbulence, with Venus retrograde from March 1 – April 12, stirring confusion in your romantic life.

    Your birthday season is the absolute highlight with a Grand Water Trine in mid-November that promises a flow of goodness into your life. Plant your intentions like seeds and watch them grow

  • 2025 brings a mix of rapture and enchantment. Say farewell to discontentment and welcome breathtaking experiences and mind-blowing realizations! However, we start the year with Mars retrograde, which may create a slower start than you'd like. You could be tempted to push forward with a project or force an issue, but resist the urge. It's not worth the frustration. Instead, take one careful step at a time, trusting that these minor frustrations are opportunities to adjust for long-term success.

    The astrology of 2025 takes us on a wild ride, beginning in January with the North Node resetting to the first degree of the zodiac. It marks a wake-up call, guiding us toward our destiny, and for you, it's a reminder that your purpose is like a mosaic of experiences. It's not just your work. As the North Node moves into Pisces for its 18-month journey, you are evaluating the external forces that pull your attention, wondering if there are any to reduce or eliminate.

    Whether single or partnered, you'll experience breakthrough insights about how you love others, which could even extend to a fertility journey. Opportunities to explore new creative possibilities emerge from March 30 – October 22 when Neptune dips into Aries, awakening your soul's urge to express the heart's song. Saturn also dips into Aries from May 24 – September 1, helping you ideate ways to best share your gifts with the world.

    Uranus, the planet of shocks and surprises, moves through your opposite sign from July 7 to November 7, perhaps throwing your relationships into a tailspin. Uranus starts a new 7-year cycle, reminding you that you can't rely on others to love you if you don't love yourself first. Show them how to treat you by prioritizing your well-being.

    March will be a time of self-reflection, with Venus retrograde from March 1 to April 12. This cycle could stir up old skeletons in the closet or force you to examine your shadows. Relationships and finances could undergo an honest review. Yours is the sign of truth; let the truth surface as a liberating force, emboldening you to make necessary edits to your life.

  • Forming a diamond takes approximately 725,000 pounds per square inch of pressure. These stones don't get their sparkle without extreme conditions and heat. In the same way, you have been growing and evolving through the insurmountable challenges. Pluto, the planet of death and rebirth, has just concluded a 14-year cycle in your sign. Now, you are free in a way you haven't been before. The intense pressure you've been under has shaped you, and as Pluto exits your sign, you stand ready to sparkle like that diamond.

    2025 promises movement, but it starts slow. Mars, the planet of ambition, is retrograde until February 23, signifying a period of reflection to make minor communication adjustments that will significantly influence your relationships. You could encounter people from your past, but pay attention to any obvious red flags, especially from January 6 – April 17 when Mars moves through Cancer, your opposite sign. Conflicts with others could lead to personal growth. Remember that before dwelling on the frustrations or succumbing to hopelessness.

    Neptune, the planet of dreams, dips into Aries, starting the first phase of a 14-year cycle from March 30 to October 22. This transit signifies a watershed moment for your family, and healing may lead to a newfound appreciation for your ancestral roots. Saturn also dips into Aries, starting a 2.5-year cycle from May 24 to September 1. Saturn's influence offers stability, helping clarify real estate or housing decisions.

    Saturn's influence shows a tension between personal and public life. It's asking you to focus on nourishing your roots, which may mean caring for family members or working fewer hours. Trust in your ability to manifest your desires and build the life you've always dreamed of, even if you press pause on some aspects of your life.

    Love grows more palpable and genuine at the end of the year. We close the year with passion planet Mars in your sign, but November is the month when sparks could fly. A Grand Water Trine around November 15 bursts the dam of fear around your heart, allowing love to flow without reservation. Be more grateful than critical, and you'll allow love to work miracles.

  • Magic is the willingness to enter into a wondrous relationship with all of life. – Rachel Lang

    You know this quote if you've read my book or taken my classes! If you've ever experienced magic, you understand how it feels when the sparkle of the spiritual core courses through the mundane. 2025 is full of those moments for you. Your call from the universe is to stay open, willing, and available for wonder to urge you into a relationship with life. The universe invites you to wander into the mystery and linger in it with gratitude.

    The year starts slow as Mars goes retrograde until February 23. Mars retrograde often dims your usual drive and ambition, making frustrations more palpable as it feels harder to externalize stress. Instead, you may become more attuned to your anger and subconscious impulses, but there's power in this buildup. It's like embers generating heat, which can be focused on fueling projects, pushing your ambition toward professional goals, or changing your health. The key this year is to stay calm on the outside but rage on the inside. Use this emotional energy wisely to channel your determination.

    Shortly after that, Venus goes retrograde from March 1 to April 12, shining an unflattering light on finances. Mercury retrograde falls in that timeframe, too, suggesting there could be a few glitches with banking, debt, or other money matters. Fortunately, Neptune starts moving out of Pisces into Aries, which offers more pioneering vision and stability in this area of your life. The 14-year transit becomes more active in February 2026, but we get a preview from March 30 to October 22. Prepare for inflation and perhaps extra expenses, but remain optimistic in general.

    The eclipse cycles in March and September further highlight financial matters, making it a year to focus on adjusting your mindset and setting new policies. Funds could come from unexpected sources; stay open to all possibilities.

    Uranus dips into Gemini from July 7 – November 7, electrifying your love life and sparking romance. If you're not interested in romance, you may have a creative breakthrough that gives you the impetus to express your talents in a way that stirs passion. It's a fertile time for you in all ways. Start that business, write your book, and shine your light.

  • You've been through a period of accelerated growth, and while it hasn't always been comfortable, it has been necessary. The last two years have allowed you to lay the foundation for the rest of your life, giving you the clarity and direction you need to realize your personal power. 2025 presses the fast-forward button on your life, making you look back in awe as the missing puzzle pieces click into place.

     

    The year kicks off with the North Node entering your sign on January 11, starting an 18-month cycle that feels like a "Choose Your Own Adventure" story. You no longer rely on outside circumstances or cosmic forces to dictate your fate. You are now in charge of steering your life in the right direction. Each encounter holds a valuable soul lesson, shaping your journey for the next nineteen years.

    March is the pivotal month of the year, bringing a dramatic turning point. The eclipse on March 14, with a Full Moon in your opposite sign (Virgo), activates a deep desire for recognition. No more playing small; you want to be seen and heard. This lunation encourages you to showcase your creative genius and step into the spotlight. The eclipse on March 29 is a bookend to a 2-week period of turbulence. Don't worry – you'll have a safe landing!

    Venus goes retrograde from March 1 to April 12, and with Mars retrograde until February 23, you may find yourself questioning aspects of your relationships this year. When the personal planets are going retrograde, we can feel frustrated, lonely, or dissatisfied. Venus is in your sign from March 27 – April 30. Have you wondered why you end up in the same relationship patterns? This cycle helps clarify how to love yourself in a way that will help model how you want to be loved by others.

    When Jupiter enters Cancer on June 9, expect a surge of joy and optimism. This spirit will be helpful as a major chapter closes in September – a month that marks the end of an 18-year cycle of building resilience. You've weathered heartbreak, health concerns, and difficult periods, only to rise stronger, like Lazarus from the dead. It's your time to honor how far you've come and embrace the exciting possibilities ahead.
