Neptune in Aries | 2025 - 2039

On March 30, 2025, Neptune will enter Aries. Neptune will begin a new cycle of 165 years and will remain in Aries for approximately 14 years. Neptune is the planet of imagination, the bigger picture, and the ethereal. Read all about the energy and function of Neptune in Aries.

Energy and Function of Neptune in Aries

Neptune is the planet of imagination, the bigger picture, and the ethereal. It represents collective (un)consciousness. Full of trust, dedication, and surrender. Which can also cloud your vision. It is therefore related to illusion and disillusionment.

Neptune invites us to look beyond the physical and material world. In our book Your Being we described Neptune as the planet of the underwater world. Through Neptune, you can easily connect with the consciousness of aquatic animals, such as dolphins. The underwater world is different from the land world. As a land animal, you have no control there and need complete trust. The same applies to other dimensions and the Universe.

Neptune in Aries 2025 - 2039

On March 30, Neptune takes its first step into Aries. On October 22, Neptune goes retrograde to the last degrees of Pisces, then on January 26, 2026, it moves completely into Aries, where it will remain until March 2039.

Neptune has an orbital period of 165 years. Aries is the first sign of the Zodiac. This means that Neptune's shift to Aries marks the start of a new era.

Aries is a fire sign and is associated with willpower, focus, and courage. It is action-oriented and contains the energy to tackle something. Aries is all about doing. Being proactive, achieving goals and desires. As the first sign of the zodiac, it represents new beginnings, pioneering, and taking initiative.

Who Am I?

With Neptune in Aries, we can expect significant shifts in our perception of who we are and our (collective) ideals and dreams. Aries represents the ‘I am’. Neptune makes it easier to connect with other dimensions. You are a multidimensional energy being and Neptune in Aries can help you gain more insight into this for yourself.

To find out what Neptune in Aries means for you personally, look at which area of life (house) Aries is in, whether you have planets there, or opposite, square or in other angles that form aspects with it. There are numerous websites with a tool that provides a visual representation of your natal chart based on your date, time and place of birth. The numbers in the inner circle are the houses (1 to 12).

Initial Energy: Spiritual Pioneer

As soon as Neptune enters Aries on March 30, 2025, it will be conjunct Mercury, Venus, and the North Node. All three are in Pisces, which is ruled by Neptune. This conjunction marks a powerful transition in which the dreamy, spiritual, and collective energy of Pisces is linked to the pioneering spirit and assertiveness of Aries. It suggests a time when:

Spiritual insights and ideals (Pisces) inspire new actions and initiatives (Aries).
Thinking and communication (Mercury) and relationships and values (Venus) are influenced by a deeper, more spiritual understanding, which can lead to inspired conversations, artistic expression, or the redefinition of values.
The North Lunar Node in this conjunction indicates a karmic or destined moment. This could be a turning point for collective growth, whereby personal values and collective ideals are transformed into individual or social renewal.

Neptune and Saturn Side By Side

Neptune and Saturn move back and forth between the first degrees of Aries and the last degrees of Pisces, before moving completely into Aries in 2026. Neptune is ethereal and Saturn is material. Neptune represents imagination and Saturn represents reality. Neptune stands for the bigger picture and Saturn stands for structuring it.

Where Neptune is about the bigger picture and blurs the lines, Saturn is all about setting boundaries. The harmony between these two makes this a perfect time to learn how to set boundaries in a healthy way, without them being based on shortcomings, restrictions, or limitations.

This combination of energy helps you stand up for your ideals, realize your dreams, and take control of your life. To live your true essence in physical reality. Especially when you carefully utilize the action-oriented energy of Aries. Energy always arrives in a range of frequencies. So you can experience it in the lower frequencies or in the higher frequencies.

On February 20, 2026, Saturn and Neptune will be exactly conjunct at 0 degrees Aries. This marks the start of their cycle, which lasts approximately 35 years (their next conjunction will be in 2061). During this conjunction, they form a sextile with Uranus, the planet of innovation, awakening, and rebellion. And with Pluto, the planet of transformation, destruction, and rebirth.

Neptune and Uranus: Fueling Innovation

Uranus forms a sextile with Neptune in Aries. The sextile offers opportunities for creative or spiritual growth. The innovative energy of Uranus can be used to develop new forms of self-expression, such as pioneering work in art, spirituality, or lifestyles that emphasize personal freedom and identity.

This sextile with Uranus is exact on:

August 29, 2025
November 20, 2025 (Neptune is back in Pisces and Uranus is back in Taurus)
July 15, 2026 (Neptune is back in Aries and Uranus is back in Gemini)
January 15, 2027
June 6, 2027

Neptune and Pluto: Spiritual Transformation

Neptune forms a sextile with Pluto. This is part of the 495-year cycle that began in 1891-1892 with the conjunction (alignment) of Neptune and Pluto. Because Neptune and Pluto are both slow, outer planets, their aspects mainly influence generations and society as a whole.

The sextile between Neptune and Pluto has been going on for decades and has been exact several times at long intervals: 1950-1965 (15x exact), 1976-1986 (21x exact) and now between 2026-2032 (13x exact). These are moments when the themes of this sextile are further developed and integrated.

The sextile that is exact 13 times between 2026 and 2032 offers a period in which the spiritual and idealistic energy of Neptune can harmoniously combine with the transformative power of Pluto.

A special element during this period is that Pluto is, on and off, out of bounds. This aligns four times with an exact sextile between Neptune and Pluto. The energy of an out of bounds planet is often ‘out of control’. This allows Pluto to express its transformative power in an unconventional, intense or boundless way.

All in all, this sextile combines spiritual growth with profound transformation, which can lead to social progress, technological innovations, and collective evolution. At the same time, Pluto's unpredictable energy requires vigilance against extremes, such as abuse of power or radical upheavals.

Unique Interplay

Uranus is the last of the outer planets to change signs. It is unique that all the outer planets are changing signs in such a short period of time and are also (mostly) forming harmonious aspects (trines and sextiles) with each other:

Pluto entered Aquarius on November 19, 2024, and will remain there for approximately 20 years. Of that time, it will be out of bounds for about 10 years, on and off. This means outside the normal zone. It represents an out-of-control energy.
Neptune is currently transitioning from Pisces to Aries. On January 26, 2026, it will fully enter Aries, where it will remain for approximately 14 years. Neptune in Aries and Neptune in the final degree of Pisces
Uranus is currently transitioning from Taurus to Gemini. On April 26, 2026, it will fully enter Gemini, where it will remain for approximately 7 years. More about Uranus in Gemini
Saturn is also in the process of transitioning from Pisces to Aries. On February 14/15, 2026, it will fully enter Aries, where it will remain for about 2.5 years. More about Saturn in Aries

On June 9, 2025, Jupiter moved from Gemini to Cancer. Jupiter stays in a sign for about a year, so that in itself is not particularly remarkable. However, Jupiter forms a square with Saturn and Neptune in Aries at the moment it enters Cancer, and this takes place on the world axis. More about Jupiter in Cancer

Shift in Energy: a New World

It is clear that there are so many shifts and changes energetically that this is affecting everything. The energy on Earth is now completely different from what we have always been used to, and this will remain so for the rest of our current lives. It will only increase.

Although the physical direction may not yet be visible, there is already an energetic direction. The higher energy frequency works much more on non-physical information transfer and thought power than the lower earth energy. So it is important to learn to deal with this and learn to direct this consciously. There is also a shift from centralized to decentralized, and from authoritarian (being directed) to authority (self-direction). Read more about the shift towards a new world

Aquarian Age
