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, 2025, Neptune took its first step into Aries. On October 22, 2025, Neptune went retrograde (moving backward from Earth's perspective) back into the last degrees of Pisces, then on January 26, 2026, it moved 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.
Neptune spent 14 years in ethereal, mystical, and fluid Pisces. This sign has little action, so the focus was mainly on feeling, dreaming, andimagining. That energy is over. The next 14 years, in Aries, are about doing, decisiveness, and pioneering.
This means a shift from feelings and words to actions. “I feel it” changes to “I do it.” This will be especially true once Saturn also moves into Aries on February 14. This will help you fine-tune your imagination and dreams so that you can materialize them in a concrete and structured way.
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.
Neptune and Saturn Side By Side
On February 20, 2026, the conjunction between Saturn and Neptune will be exactly at 0 degrees Aries. This marks the start of their cycle, which lasts approximately 36 years. It is the beginning of a new era in which boundaries, beliefs, and reality will be redefined.
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 Saturn Conjunction | February 20, 2026
The Neptune-Saturn conjunction in Aries marks the beginning of a new era in which boundaries, beliefs, and reality are redefined.
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.
