VENUS ENTERS ARIES Venus, the planet of values (what WE value and desire), love and finances, enters the sign of Aries on 7 March. In Aries, Venus is in her mythical lover’s daytime den (her night cave is in Scorpio, the other Mars’ ruled sign). Venus in Aries is full of bravado, actually, she always gets what she wants in any sign, but she’s more open and adventurous in Aries, sexual, but perhaps not sensuous, and certainly not “comfy” here. Aries and Scorpio are in fact the signs where Venus is in her detriment, where she is at least at ease in her surroundings. So, [...]
SATURN-NEPTUNE CONJUNCTION AT 00°45’ ARIES The upcoming conjunction will take place on 20 February and will be the first conjunction of these two planets in the sign of Aries since 1702. Conjunctions occur between the pair approximately every 36 years and the last time they met up was on 13 November 1989 at 10° Capricorn. During the major part of 2025, Saturn and Neptune have been within orb of conjunction in the sign of Pisces. This conjunction however was in a Water sign, the very last sign of the zodiac where things are brought to conclusion and where not only emotions run high [...]
SATURN RETURNS TO ARIES Saturn made its first tentative entrance into Aries on 24-25 May 2025 remaining in this sign until 01 September when by retrograde motion it returned to Pisces, now the planet will re-enter Aries until April 2028. From Water to Fire. The old man enters the sign of youth, who will teach who? Saturn in Pisces enjoyed only minor dignity in the first 10 and the last 5 degrees of the sign (the former by face, the latter by term). In Aries, Saturn will be in his fall and only slightly improved by dignity in term during the last 5 degrees of the sign. So, for the [...]
NEPTUNE IN ARIES 2025-2039 On 30 March 2025 Neptune made its first timid entrance into the sign of Aries after being in Pisces since 2011. Neptune then began its annual 5-month retrograde period on 4 July 2025 at 02°10’ Aries (antiscion 27°50’ Virgo) and remained in Aries until 22 October 2025 when it re-entered Pisces once again and has since lingered at 29° Pisces from late October 2025 to 26 January 2026! Giving the best and the worst of its characteristics in this sign. As Neptune now leaves Pisces for good and enters Aries until 2039 it’s all about endings and new beginnings.[...]
FULL MOON IN ARIES A Harvest Moon with little to reap… Full Moons are moments when matters peak concerning the house axis where it falls, for good or for bad, and some of these matters could involve any intentions you might have set on the previous New Moon which took place fifteen days ago. The Full Moon occurs at 14°08’ (antiscion 15°52’ Virgo). The antiscion point is exactly opposite the degree of the Lunar Eclipse which took place on the 7th of September at 15°25° Pisces and thus activates the eclipse. The Moon and Sun stand alone as they face each other since there are [...]
SATURN’S 5-MONTH RETROGRADE PERIOD STARTS 12-13 JULY 2025 Isn’t it time to question the warfare and aggressiveness that’s all around us? Saturn will station retrograde at 01°56’ Aries (antiscion 28°04’ Virgo) on the 12-13th July to station direct at 25°09’ Pisces on 27-28th November. It is still in tight orb of a conjunction to Neptune and will remain so until late next Spring. Saturn is the planet of restriction and order which rewards hard work and perseverance. Aries is known for being action-oriented (a Cardinal sign), courageous, aggressive, opinionated and [...]
NEPTUNE STATIONS RETROGRADE IN ARIES Neptune is said to be the higher octave of Venus and within hours of each other, first Venus leaves the sign of her dignity and enters Gemini where she will be peregrine for the most part of the stay there, Neptune then turns retrograde. So, two planets with a supposedly similar essence make a major game change on the same day. On 30 March Neptune made its first timid entrance into the sign of Aries after being in Pisces since 2011. Neptune will begin its annual 5-month retrograde period on 4 July at 02°10’ Aries (antiscion 27°50’ Virgo) and [...]

VENUS RE-ENTERS ARIES Love at first sight… Venus, the planet of values (what WE value and desire), love and finances, re.enters the sign of Aries on 30 April. In Aries, Venus is in her mythical lover’s den (one of them, the other being in Scorpio). Venus in Aries is full of bravado, actually she always gets what she wants in any sign, but her she’s more open and adventurous in Aries, sexual, but perhaps not sensuous, and certainly not “comfy” here.

MERCURY RE-ENTERS ARIES From Water to Fire = steam, right? After backtracking his way through Pisces, Mercury now re-enters Aries for the second time this year and it’s time to get all heated-up and argumentative again. Forget those sweet words and dreamy thoughts now it’s time to defend our views and follow through with our plans in a “no holds barred” manner. Mercury in Aries just loves to talk and discuss, usually being over-concerned with himself and his views and easily getting combative and argumentative so don’t let temper and sarcasm interfere with common sense [...]
