The Astrology of 2025: Revolution in the Inner + Outer Sphere

2025 looks quite remarkable from an astrological perspective. 

In a brilliant cosmic dance, ALL of the outer planetsUranus, Neptune, and Plutoshift into new signs, while the social planets, Jupiter and Saturn, follow suit! With these huge changes, will also see all of the inner planetsMercury, Venus, and Mars—turn retrograde, and the Lunar Nodes (which guide our life path & destiny) shift into Pisces & Virgo. 

The outer planets move slowly and have unique transit lengths, so the fact they’re all shifting signs within the same year, to me, marks a profound + synchronized shift for the collective mind, heart and focus.

Spontaneously this year, you may find yourself gazing at a world totally unfamiliar. The new energies are passionately creative, glitteringly innovative & confronting the collective to become more strategic with their life force.

It is, after all, the year of the snake, according to the Chinese Zodiac & a 9 year in Numerology. The year of the snake suggests shedding skin & renewing oneself with calculated precision. 9 years are ruled by Mars, the planet with immense courage to INITIATE, pioneer & lead. 

In 2025, we will likely embark on the pursuits that we were previously too intimidated to initiate or complete.

There is a re-orientation is happening at a cellular & collective level; in the inner & outer spheres. We are being initiated into greater responsibility and accepting the unfoldment of our authentic path, while witnessing the birth of so much newness on the political and world stage.

Let’s tap into the most significant transits of 2025….

Pluto in Aquarius (2024-2044)

Pluto moved into Aquarius in November 2024, for the next twenty years. It is the dawn of a potent new age. I foresee this being an important phase of humanity’s journey where there is a battle between artificial technologies versus turning inward to develop our God-given technology and integrating our higher body and soul intelligence. With Pluto, truth always wins as it strips things down to their raw essence, while in the process, uncovering the shadow or dark underbelly, which ultimately leads to greater wholeness and humility. This transit will undoubtedly expose technology addiction, the dark agenda of transhumanism and the dangers of group think. Pluto is powerfully helping us shed all that prevents us from living a life in alignment with our higher visions. Many communities are coming together and strengthening with a common good in mind. Are you a slave to technology or weaving a conscious relationship with it?

Uranus in Gemini (July 7, 2025- 2032)

Uranus in Gemini brings a surge of innovation and radical change to how we communicate, think, and connect with one another. This transit shakes up our approach to learning, information-sharing, and technology. Expect an explosion of new ideas, unconventional thinking, and a desire for intellectual freedom. The collective mind becomes restless, seeking fresh perspectives and breakthroughs in education, media, and social networks. However, this energy can also lead to sudden shifts in opinions, scattered thoughts, or a tendency to overanalyze, creating a sense of mental disarray at times. Embrace flexibility and train your nervous system to become more adaptable.

Uranus- Pluto Trine (July 2025-May 2029)

On a collective level, this transit invites a period of transformation that feels both exciting and inevitable. Expect to see powerful shifts in how societies operate—innovations in technology, social systems, and governance may emerge with unprecedented speed. As new paradigms take root, there will be a deep reworking of societal values and structures, from economic systems to environmental policies. Individuals and groups may feel empowered to challenge the status quo and push for radical reforms. The part of you that craves change and reform, allow that part of you to speak up now. Your voice or cries will be heard.

Saturn in Aries (May 24, 2025- April 12, 2028)

This transit will push the collective to take control of their life force. It will encourage personal responsibility and for people to step into leadership roles. Aries is about boldness and self-reliance, and Saturn brings structure and discipline. This transit will drive people to take risks, pursue goals with determination, and push for independence in areas that may be suffering from co-dependent dynamics. However, there will be tension between wanting to move fast and the need for patience and hard work.

On a societal level, this period will encourage individuals to take charge of their lives and careers, while also testing how well we balance personal ambitions with the greater good. Lead your life with confidence, notice where you doubt your leadership ability to take control of your life force.

Neptune in Aries (March 30, 2025- March 23, 2039)

This transit encourages a search for deeper meaning through personal expression, often sparking movements focused on individuality, freedom, and revolutionary change. While the energy will inspire bold dreams, it will also require navigating illusions and the potential for misplaced idealism, urging the collective to balance vision with grounded action. This will definitely be a time when our actions can be more effortlessly infused with spiritual purpose. Act from the heart of your why.

Saturn- Neptune Conjunction in Aries (July 13, 2025)

Saturn’s discipline will work hand in hand with Neptune’s idealism, creating a rare moment to manifest long-held aspirations through focused, practical effort. This alignment will inspire the collective to build something transformative—whether personal or societal—by blending imagination with determination. Ask for clarity and discernment to distinguish between realistic ambitions and fleeting illusions.

Jupiter In Cancer (June 9, 2025- June 29, 2026)

Jupiter in Cancer will bring a wave of emotional expansion, encouraging the collective to prioritize family, home, and emotional security. This transit fosters a nurturing energy, amplifying a desire for connection, care, and support within communities and close relationships. Day-to-day, there may be a heightened focus on creating a sense of belonging and emotional fulfillment, whether through strengthening family bonds, investing in personal growth, or making environments feel more supportive. Connecting to one’s roots and past is likely. The atmosphere might feel warmer, more inclusive and the desire to be real family or soul family may be top priority. Nurture your roots, honour your ancestors & bask in the beauty of belonging.

Mars Retrograde in Leo + Cancer (December 6, 2024- February 23, 2025)

Mars retrograde in Leo and Cancer (December 6, 2024 – February 23, 2025) will invite the collective to slow down and reassess how we express our passion, assertiveness, and desires. In Leo, Mars’ retrograde energy may stir up questions about our personal identity, creative expression, and the way we seek attention or recognition. We may revisit past projects or relationships that require us to recalibrate our self-esteem and how we shine in the world. As Mars moves into Cancer, the focus shifts to home, family, and emotional security, where we might experience frustration around nurturing or defending our emotional boundaries. Day-to-day, this transit may lead to periods of internal tension, delays, or revisiting unresolved conflicts, particularly in relationships that feel emotionally charged. It’s a time to be patient, recalibrate intentions, and avoid impulsive actions.

Venus Retrograde in Aries + Pisces (March 1- April 12, 2025)

Venus retrograde in Aries and Pisces (March 1 – April 12, 2025) will be a period of emotional reflection, particularly around love, relationships, and values. In Aries, Venus urges a re-evaluation of how we assert ourselves in love, possibly bringing up themes of independence, selfishness, or impulsivity in relationships. As Venus shifts into Pisces, the energy becomes more introspective, stirring up a review of idealized love, spiritual connections, and past emotional wounds. Day-to-day, there may be moments of emotional vulnerability, revisiting past relationships, or reevaluating how we give and receive love. Avoid rash decisions & superficial connections. Learn to be a team player.

Virgo Total Lunar Eclipse (23°56’) (March 13)

The Virgo Total Lunar Eclipse on March 13 will bring a powerful culmination, urging the collective to examine the balance between practicality and emotional fulfillment. Virgo, the sign of discernment, service, and detail, will illuminate where we’ve been overly critical or perfectionistic, both in ourselves and others. This eclipse will ask us to release old patterns of self-judgment, rigid routines, or the need for control, encouraging a deeper acceptance of imperfection. This eclipse may stir our sense of worth and how we care for ourselves and others. What no longer serves your emotional well-being and where can you be more compassionate to yourself and others?

Aries Partial Solar Eclipse (9°00’) (March 29)

The Aries Partial Solar Eclipse on March 29 will ignite a powerful surge of energy, propelling the collective toward bold new beginnings. Aries, the sign of action, courage, and self-assertion, will encourage us to take the initiative, pursue our desires with confidence, and embrace fresh starts. This eclipse will illuminate areas where we’ve held back from stepping into our power, urging us to break free from fear and indecision. Expect sparks of inspiration, clarity, and the courage to act decisively.

Pisces Total Lunar Eclipse (15°22’) (September 7)

The Pisces Total Lunar Eclipse on September 7 will be a moment of deep emotional release and profound illumination. As the Pisces energy amplifies our intuition, dreams, and inner worlds, this eclipse will force us to confront what we’ve been avoiding—emotional baggage, old wounds, and illusions that no longer serve us. It’s time to let go of anything that’s keeping us from fully stepping into our power and potential. The collective will be pushed to embrace compassion, forgiveness, and spiritual growth, clearing the way for new emotional clarity. Notice how the way you connect to ourselves, others, and the universe is changing.

Virgo Partial Solar Eclipse (29°05’) (September 21)

The Virgo Partial Solar Eclipse on September 21 will be a powerful moment to refine, reset, and recalibrate. As the sun aligns with Virgo’s practical, discerning energy, this eclipse calls us to focus on the details, streamline our lives, and prioritize what truly matters. It’s an invitation to assess our routines, health, and daily responsibilities—clearing out clutter and creating space for more meaningful progress. On a collective level, this eclipse will highlight the need for practical solutions to long-standing problems, especially in areas of work, service, and wellness. Devote yourself to the task at hand. This moment, as much as any other, deserves your pure awareness.
