NEPTUNE SEXTILE NATAL MARS

Transiting Neptune entered Aries on March 30, 2025.  It does go back into Pisces for a short period of time (October 22, 2025, to January 26, 2026) and then after January 2026 remains in Aries until it moves into Taurus in approximately 14 years. 

The Sextile aspect (60° between two planets or angles) is considered a major aspect. (The Conjunction, Trine, Square and Opposition are also major aspects.) Normally, we find we begin to feel the energetic influence of any major aspects at about 3-5° prior to becoming direct as well as about 2-3° separating.  When direct (exactly at the degree), this will be the time when the aspects’ energies are most intense.  A transit from transiting Mars, the Sun or transiting Uranus will set in motion the interlinking energies of the planets (used to establish correct timing) that are making aspects together.  The progressed Moon can also be used as a timer.

The Sextile aspect is an aspect of opportunity and like the Trine often presents the individual with favourable opportunities, easy flow, pleasant or generally good outcomes, but unlike the Trine (which operates in such a way that little work on the part of the individual involved is required) the Sextile often needs a push or effort from the individual to create results from the opportunity.

Neptune, operating in its positive sense, brings to the forefront artistic abilities, creative potential, the want to help others and for those so inclined, can open the door for greater psychic perception. More insight and intuitive abilities can rise to the surface potentially providing those affected by this aspect with opportunities for advancement with these subjects.

Natal Mars, depending on its position in the birth chart, often produces a driving force and is a motivating factor for achievement.  It can also have something to do with our sex drive and can become aggressive in this pursuit, depending on which sign and the natal aspect configurations affecting Mars.  It can be confrontational, easily aroused and provide us with a push when we need it (and at the most opportune moments).

Neptune Sextile Natal Mars

Neptune and Mars together can provide the push needed to bring forward some of life’s mysteries, create artistic opportunities for advancement and lead to favorable life events because we now have the ability to push ourselves a little harder with few reservations.  The opportunity is in place, but it will be up to the individual involved to make things happen.  Sitting back idle will not help with achieving what may be wanted. It is up to the individual to put in the work required to accomplish goals.

Much will depend on the overall condition of Natal Mars, along with any other transits and progressions in play at the same time.  The houses impacted will define what potential lies ahead and what areas of life are involved.

Do not let the energies of the aspect of Neptune sextile Natal Mars slip away. Put forth effort so that you can reap the rewards of this opportunity involving artistic abilities or the mysteries of life.

URANUS MOVES INTO GEMINI

Uranus temporarily will move into Gemini on July 7, 2025, then back into Taurus on November 8, 2025 and finally move into Gemini for approximately 7 years on April 26, 2026. We thought we would touch on this transit as it will create a more easy flow for Uranus’ energies.

Taurus is stifling the energies of Uranus, (in its fall position which is a placement of general weakness for what the planet represents). 

We have been learning to diversify and not depend on any one thing that brought us security and stability during Uranus’ stay in Taurus. Uranus does not sit well with ingrained structures that do not want to shift, even when a shift is required.  Uranus wants to open doors and awaken us to new possibilities and new beginnings because what has been in place, no longer suits our evolutionary quest.

Taurus is quite content with leaving things as they are.  It seeks security especially in areas concerning earthly achievements.  It moves tentatively, preparing for what might be required in the future as it slowly shifts where it feels shifting is required for the security it seeks. 

Any shift which Uranus would have been trying to implement would take a long time to transpire and would not come easily.  There were concerns about what this change might bring. There would have been concerns as to whether these changes were safe, although the potential for building a solid foundation would have been in the forefront of any change taking place.

Soon, we will begin to feel it shift a couple of degrees prior to Uranus actually moving into Gemini. Our ideology will shift, and we will be more open to dialogue and ready for change. We will be mutable enough to shift without too much interference or worry about what this change might bring.

Gemini is easier going than Taurus, is able to shift where needed, is open to discussion and new dialogue and is adaptable when it comes to new enterprises.  We will be able to move ahead, think in broader terms and evaluate without cause for concern or worrying about the outcome. We will understand that change is required and that anything that is stagnated will no longer serves our purpose for the future. 

As Uranus moves into Gemini, the thought process undergoes change, and we are intrigued. Our thoughts are stimulated by potential and concepts can maneuver their way over hurdles that have been in place. This will result in slow but likely steady growth.  Now, we can use what we have learned and open our minds further into exploration. We will now understand that if we rush into change, it might not work out the way we want it to. 

When Uranus moves into Gemini, we can now harness our optimism, moving along a little slower than what we might want, but with the ability to evaluate all potentials as we begin our exploration into the new and welcoming journey forward.

SATURN AND NEPTUNE CONJUNCTION IN ARIES

We have a high-powered conjunction coming up with Saturn and Neptune.  Neptune entered Aries March 30, 2025, and will return into Pisces on October 22 and then make its return to Aries in January, 2026. 

Saturn moves into Aries on May 25, 2025 and returns to Pisces September 1; finally moving back into Aries in the middle of February 2026. 

Saturn and Neptune will be aligned in the early degrees beginning in May, 2025 and staying in close proximity in Aries until September 1. 

Uranus makes a Sextile to this positioning in July while Pluto (in Aquarius) will also make a sextile to this placement.  Those individuals with planets or angles in these areas in their astrology charts will be influenced by the overall configuration taking hold during these times.  More will be written as we maneuver our way closer to these other planets making aspects.

Saturn and Neptune Conjunction in Aries

Today, we will be touching on the influence of the conjunction of Saturn and Neptune. 

Saturn has to do with reality, focus, is serious in nature, disciplined, organized, structured and reliable.  Saturn is driven by the conscious mind and is in tuned with the material world and what the material world has to offer.

Neptune is illusive, mystical, spiritual, psychic, can be somewhat vague, can also be unreliable and often has to do with dreams, the meditative experience and is driven by the unconscious. 

So how will Saturn affect Neptune? 

Saturn tends to create stability and will clarify exactly what the psychic realms mean on a personal basis, due to both planets being in Aries.  Saturn will ask you if you are seeing things clearly as they are. Saturn wants you to focus.  It will want you to ensure that you can depend on what you feel and see in front of you. Saturn wants a solid foundation and for things to work out over the long haul. 

On the other hand, how will Neptune’s energy affect Saturn?

Neptune will ask Saturn to step out of its comfort zone and look at things from a different perspective.  There will be a lot of “what-ifs” and will also tell Saturn to not be so serious and stop worrying about the outcome, because in fact we might not know the outcome.  Neptune will ask Saturn to look inside for the answers and rely more on intuition and its senses. 

Together Neptune and Saturn will mold with one another seeking out facts, reach for assistance from higher sources, gain understanding although at times things will be vague and perhaps misunderstood.  Over time, things will solidify and make sense although turmoil will be a result until everything settles. All things taking hold under this influence will affect us on a personal level likely causing anxiety and concern for those who tend to allow this.  A part of us will hold on and even possibly martyr ourselves but we will gain wisdom because of the experience.  Reality and the mystical will try to find solace in what is unfolding as they join forces, pushing towards the greater good for all concerned.

The houses in the astrology chart that are being enhanced by these two planetary links will define what areas of life are involved.

The final results will be tied to fluctuations and mistrust and at the same time an understanding that this will align itself and likely teach a lesson that will not be forgotten.  How we confront this in our own personal terms, how we push for change that affects us, as well as the influence from those we are close to, will influence how this all works out.

Saturn and Neptune conjunction in Aries are unusual partners but with diligent efforts and concern for others in the coming months, our life events focused on the practical and merging with the mystical will be energized.
