WHAT’S NEXT FOR THE MUSIC INDUSTRY?

☆ Neptune in Aries and the music industry ☆

☆ I've seen a lot of people make the realization that the Grammy’s were actually enjoyable this year. The public mostly agreeing that the awards given out were justified and long over due for certain artists. (Disregarding pointless stan wars) There was a section during the ceremony where the head of the grammy committee gives a speech about making things right and rewarding artists more for innovation. For example; Beyonce finally getting Album of the Year, an award that has been long overdue according to fans and critics. Along with her best country album win that even shocked her. And the Grammys giving The Weeknd a formal apology for not nominating him after he had one of the most iconic eras of music we’ve since in the past decade. It also seems like music award shows are slowly becoming more enjoyable again.

☆ Festivals like Coachella recently sparked conversation and arguments about what is acceptable as a performer, with all of artists getting flack for being lack luster, low energy and lacking professionalism while performing. Especially when you’re in this economy where you want to get your moneys worth. Other artists being praised for putting in actual effort and people even saying that Megan Thee Stallion should’ve been a headliner.

☆ Apps like TikTok changing how music and artists get recognized adding onto the digital era of music. But ever since the end of quarantine blowing up on TikTok for your music is more sparse, especially with the app constantly being threatened to be banned in America. And your chance of sticking is less and less in such a now crowded space.

☆ The most current thing about music that is making the rounds is the rise in main female pop and rap stars vs the men. It seems like every year a new pop girlie is announced or started to gain momentum and sky rockets to stardom. Whilst for male artists the competition seems to be more sparse.

☆ All of these things occurring during the tail end of Neptune in Pisces. So it sparks the question;

HOW WILL MUSIC CHANGE WITH NEPTUNE IN ARIES?

☆ Neptune is a very mysterious planet. Many of its rulings feeling contradictory to one another. It can rule compassion and kindness but also deception and delusion. One of its rulings is melodies/music.

☆ Neptune entered Pisces August 2011. The state of music in 2011 going onward was this:

The increasing rise of streaming

The widespread of new emerging Artists via the internet (social media)

Rap (specifically mumble and female rap) and Edm/Dance topping the charts and radio

The new mainstream trend of blending genres

The rise of music from other cultures and countries in western media

Pisces Neptune and the ending of things:

☆ Pisces is the last sign of the zodiac and can often show us what is dissipating and coming to an end, not necessarily being destroyed (that would be more pluto energy) but a cycle that is ending at least for now. Pisces is spiritual, referred to the higher realm, and can be considered a healing sign. Therefore Neptune in pisces coming to an end can show what the world of music has learned and healed from. The ripple effect that will lead to the Aries transit. It seems that people are tired of just the chill vibes and wants energy in music and on stage again. In essence for the past few years the music scene has been in a limbo but artists who bring the heat are getting more recognition and respect, for ex: Megan thee Stallion. Or artists who are more blunt and bold with their lyricism and performances. Ex Sabrina Carpenter (esp with her Juno positions) Also whilst I do enjoy artists feeling more comfortable than ever in their art and music (as Neptune is at home in Pisces) it has also made music a bit calm. Many people complaining that we don’t have many powerhouses in the mainstream. It’s hard to think that someone like a Whitney Houston or Aretha Franklin will be a heavy hitter in the mainstream but with the Aries in Neptune transit now here i believe there’s a chance of that. Less whisper singers or people who can’t sing on stage without sounding out of breathe constantly (no shade)

The last time Aries was in Neptune

☆ The last time Neptune was in the sign of Aries the biggest historical event(s) to take place was the Civil War. I feel the need to talk about this because in a lot of my predictions that are below I believe this new wave of music will be filled with revolution topics and artists getting their emancipation back. Artists challenging labels or calling out labels for ex Chappell Roans speech at the Grammies talking about healthcare for artists. Beyonce taking back genres once owned and created by black people that have overtime been taken by white people. Also Movies like Sinners getting so much love from the mainstream, with a messages that center around individualism/identity, your passions, and people who prey on your talents for their own gain (Neptune also rules film) and the Cowboy Carter tour being filled with messages saying “You can’t reclaim something that already belongs to you” I see Artists and people in the music industry will start to fight for their autonomy and freedoms. I see artists that will refuse to conform. They will set their own paths and change how things are operating behind the scenes. In a sense making things right (by their own definition)

MY MUSIC/MUSIC INDUSTRY PREDICTIONS

Resurgence of Artist Development

☆ Complaints on artists with no media training and lack of professionalism from mainstream artists have been a complaint for a while. I think the chill laid back nature of artists is slowly not becoming the cool norm anymore and people want authenticity still yes but they also want to see drive and passion. Being nonchalant is a trend amongst more of the younger generation and the fear of being a try hard will make you look cringe. But I think this transit will glamorize being a hard worker and someone of passion. If labels are smart they’ll start actually devolving artists behind the scenes like they did in the 90s. Beyond labels I think more artists will treat their craft with more discipline.

More powerful independent music labels

☆ Aries is known to be one of the more independent signs. Off that fact alone I’d hope to see more and more artists be independent and/or sign to new independent labels that might have a chance of becoming extremely successful. It’s not exactly a secret that labels have been getting lots of flack for not prioritizing their artists health, finical stability or actually giving the artists the dreams they’re selling. It’s becoming more and more of a better option to be an independent artist than it is to sign to a label since they’re essentially glorified banks that give out huge loans. Aries being innovate, first of the zodiac and independent may give independent labels and artists the chance to thrive.

Shortcuts in music

☆ Aries is a temperamental and emotional sign. Quick to get riled up in passionate emotions and easily one of the most impatient of the signs. This leads me to believe that music will have a lot of shortcuts and quick fixes or “cheatcodes” if you will which sadly reminds me of AI and AI music. If there’s an artist who comes out who strictly issues AI and becomes popular I will not be surprised. I can also see this as labels growing more impatient with signing new artists who have potential to go viral but don’t after a certain amount of time and more artists getting dropped for those reasons

Extreme competitiveness behind the scenes

☆ Ares is the god of war and very militant. I see a lot of strategic fighting and dirty plays being made even more so in the industry. I think the more and more new artists are able to blow up and sign to management/have distribution deals the more competitive the field will become. It’s already a competitive industry but I think it’s going to enter a whole new phase of it. For ex; I think labels are gonan start cracking down on finding and developing the new “black pop girl”. And black girls in pop/rnb who are already established, their teams will most likely try to jump on that opportunity or put them on the back burner for someone else (harsh but the truth in this field). I also see artists and their teams being more strict.

New leaders, holy trinities and standards

☆ Aries is the first sign in the zodiac and is known to be trailblazing and set standards. Neptune in Aries will bring a new era of music along with new leaders of music, and new holy trinities. Similar to Mariah, Whitney, and Celine being the holy trinity when Neptune was in Sagittarius/Aquarius and Rihanna, Nicki, and Beyonce being our gens big three when Neptune was in Pisces this new era will give us a new standard to look up to.

More innovative/trailblazing performances

☆ I see new ways of performing making the mainstream. We’ve gotten used to the norm of award show performances, the Super Bowl and the typical day time/late night television performance. I can see music teams, labels and artists getting more creative with places to perform and do performances never done before. For ex. The Beyonce Bowl. Although it was still a NFL performance not only was it live streamed to Netflix but was a Christmas Day special performance with such a high production it was a performance an artist hadn’t done for the NFL Christmas show before. Performances like that might inspire people in the industry to come up with performances that haven’t been done before and become new norms.

Rock/Grunge Comeback

☆ When it comes to specific genres I do believe rock, rock influenced music and grunge will become mainstream again. Especially with black artists as it’s speculated artists like Beyonce will be releasing a Rock inspired album for her 3rd act album. I think it’s pretty self explanatory why Aries in Neptune can bring back the rock wave. Rock can be extremely powerful, expressive, emotional (not just including rage and anger), a lot of people consider rock to only be an aggressive genre so it coming back during this transit would aline very well with what a lot of people have been feeling. Music can reflect the world we live in and it’s safe to say A LOT of people are angry. Rock has always been a revolution filled genre with subjects that often criticize and rebel against the status quo and polices/systems against the oppressed

The New Male Pop Star

☆ Aries is masculine and even though it doesn’t necessarily mean men I do think we’re long overdue for a new male pop star or just star in general. A Justin Bieber, A Harry Styles, an Usher or maybe even someone who will live up to a legacy like Micheal Jackson. We’ll have to wait and see 🤫

What’s your prediction for what will happen to music and the music industry with the Aries Neptune transit?

Neptune in Aries

The birth of a new world religion

"January Neptune enters Aries on March 30, but it will station retrograde on July 4, and eventually re-enter Pisces on Oct. 22, 2025. After stationing direct on Dec. 10, it will return to Aries on Jan. 26, 2026, where it will remain until May 23, 2039" (People.com)

Northopalshores' Masterlist | Midheaven Persona Chart | private readings

🐏 In the next 13-14 years we will be witnessing another rebirth around art, music, cinema, addiction & religion or spirituality as well as mental health. Everything under these areas will undergo a long-term shift. Neptune also tends to reflect what is seen as "cool" for each generation involved.

⫘⫘⫘⫘⫘⫘⫘⫘⫘⫘⫘⫘⫘⫘⫘⫘⫘⫘⫘⫘⫘

🐏 A lot more media will be put under polarizing influences as well people having clear likes and dislikes (beliefs being revisited, questioned, people arguing over their own interpretations and no longer confining themselves under outside influence).

In art, cinema or music you can expect more independent or new impactful creations brought to life (gone is the age of remakes or brands trying to relieve what they use to have or be in the past!).

🐏 New independent artists popping up, so we'll likely see the decline of nepotism going around in the entertainment industry as well. At the very least they won't exactly hold the same influence as they once did. People are prioritizing people's choice.

Not without it's problems of course (the people assuming more authority over who gets famous and for how long, being disrespectful, assuming more or equal power over celebrities, destroying boundaries once more but in a more demanding way kinda).

🐏 In a way, I think we'll start to see something similar as when Neptune was in Leo, Libra, Scorpio, Sagittarius, & Aquarius (the rise of idealistic Hollywood & celebrities, then a renewal controversial, free spirited and "wild" celebrity culture)

I wanted to include some history & the past that I'm referencing in this post to further highlight these themes & make my point clear.

💣 In Leo, late 1920s to early 1960s:

Neptune was in Leo starting around late 1915 untill early 1929 & then in Libra starting late 1942 untill early 1956 (also retrogrades between Virgo & Scorpio throughout that time).

We saw the rise of Hollywood and a monopoly over media and & movie screening rights or "block booking" (forcing theaters to buy bundles of films including low-quality ones if they wanted to show the hits) to ensure their profit & movies of choice would be shown. Major movie theaters i.e Warner Bros, MGM & Paramount controlled the film distribution.

Celebrities were considered royalty and were treated with adoration, often idealized and sold as such through the media. They were literally "stars" and their lives were viewed as luxurious, classy and to die for in some cases. They were icons and representation of culture, power and elegance. In a way, they were treated as products. It was also common for them to put up fronts to make themselves seem more desirable and polished than they really were. Ugly aspects of their lives were kept hidden to continue selling that star image. That norm began to shift following Neptune in Scorpio (late 1955 - 1970).

💣 In Scorpio, 1955 - mid 1970:

Neptune moved into Scorpio. Consequently we saw the rise of rebellion & dark themes in media. Characters became more raw, and unfiltered but in a meaningful way. There was also a striking increase in sexual portrayal through songs, movies and art. Horror saw a rise in popularity as well. Think Rebel without a cause (1955) & Psycho (1960). Both iconic for stirring the pot in their own way. We also say a rise in counterculture & anti established themes in media (focused on the antihero) like in Bonnie & Clyde (1967) and Midnight Cowboy (1969 nice), and even in movies like The Graduate (it rubbed me the wrong way when I first watched it but that was literally the point; sexual disillusionment in a way). This era reconstructed the media making people question authority figures, and questioned morality in the process. Being the first to push boundaries and limitations.

💣 In Sagittarius, 1970s-1980s:

Neptune moved into Sagittarius early 1970 until 1984 then continuing into Aquarius in the late 90s. (Retrogrades between Capricorn throughout that time).

Here, we enter the "new wave" of media, through music and movies especially. Hippie culture and religious/spiritual practices also became more popular during this time. We saw the birth of "wilder" films and concept leaning into creativity, sci-fi, overindulgence and hedonism. Movies, media, & music became more widespread and available as there were more options and genres to choose from ( we saw the rise/birth/popularization of punk rock, hip-hop, heavy metal, reggae, electronic, funk & etc). Although there was still controversy surrounding media control (like studios & labels having power over their artists, them having to lip sync and filter a lot of the media, radical religious movements also took place to oppose the rise of that new age hedonism). Also, it was considerd cool not to care and have that laid back attitude amongst the younger generation of the time.

💣 In Aquarius, late 1990s to 2011:

Neptune entered Aquarius in 1998 untill late 2011 (retrogrades between Capricorn & Pisces throughout that time).

The internet really came down hard on people during this time and celebrities were considered public domain to be consumed and criticized. People wanted to be famous, but often became so through some sort of problematic (yet new & exciting) ways. Not giving a fuck was popular. Being problematic was popular.

A lot of people were jerks during this time and treated celebrities as such, often going for shock factors and stirring up controversy in any industry really. People were rather judgemental of each other but at the same time this is where we saw the popularization of individuality expressed through bizzare or standout aesthetics. We also saw the birth of revolutionary public figures, film & media and celebrities like Lady Gaga.

At the same time, South Park, the MTV craze, the whole Britney Spears controversy, Eminem, 4chan, obscure websites and internet icebergs, all of them were born or popularized during this time for having that jarring or rebellious ("cool & niche") aspect to it. The weirder or unhinged you were, the more you were seen. Controversy seemed to rule the online world in a way. Indie games (and games in general ) were also a dominating presence back then. People were kind of out of touch too following that plunge into Neptune in Pisces.

I read a reddit post about it here and honestly, I agree with what they were saying as it was evidently so especially online.

Here's a chart timeline of Neptune in the signs (including it's retrogrades from 1901-2026 from cayelincastell.com)

So to continue where we left off with Neptune in Aries:

🐏 Celebrities will no longer be worshiped but they will still have power over the world (just not the same way that it is now where boundaries are questioned). They'll be more expressive and experimental, abrasive even (claiming their right as individuals and not products to be scrutinized by the public or people online). Think Chappelle Roan advocating her rights and fighting back against disrespectful media representations being more rude. Same with Doja Cat and her whole rebrand (while it may have upset many of her fans).

🐏 Celebrities won't act like they owe anyone anything anymore but people will also start revolting against their influences. So we can expect more altercations surrounding that area as well.

🐏 Celebrity hate or drama could be amplified.

We'll likely see the rise of more masculine influence in art, movies, music, religion & spirituality. More men diving into Neptunian themes including music, religion or the occult (astrology, witchcraft & tarot). Idolizing powerful men or public figures.

🐏 Births or the appreance of "prophets" could be possible.

🐏 Independent brands gaining more traction & popularity.

🐏 Prominent activism.

🐏 Idolized brands going through rebrands or losing worth.

🐏 Women embracing a more agressive and powerful presence. People with significant Aries placements may be impacted significantly too (triggering a lot of inner fears or desires but also their creativity).

🐏 Movies could center around new & impactful stories, based on true events, more action, more drama, a reformation through the narrative or overall vibe of movies or animations, we may also see a rise in independent films again or maybe even movies that kind of suck ass or are straight up just "shocking" but get popular over that.

🐏 Movies that are hot & heavy, action packed or just something more real or raw (like live action and physical sets).

🐏 People may be less dependent on religion as well & instead will be focusing on individuality and personal power (which can be both good & bad depending on the context).

🐏 There may be conflict with certain religions (being stubborn or assuming power over the other) that part might be rather messy, but it's to be expected.

🐏 Agressive idealisms & false crusades (fighting for religious beliefs that are misleading).

🐏 Media or delusions being our reality.

🐏 More internet fights or calling people out, being more confrontational. Some sort of war or huge conflict may start as well. The last time Neptune was in Aries, the US went through Civil War.

🐏 People will respond more to power and authority (rather than spirituality, authoritarian figures will likely dominate this era). There's likely going to be some forcefulness at play as well. But rebellion, and stubbornness is more significant (especially since Pluto is in Aquarius).

🐏 Intense psychological battles will also ensue. Mayhaps many, many rude awakenings.

🐏 Neptune in Aries & Pluto in Aquarius is a lethal combination. Hah, expect more discourse online. Seems like a good part of the world is turning into a worldwide "Reddit", people correcting one another & putting their interests, ideas, and expressions above others. Either way, this new era is not for the weak or faint of heart. Brace for impact soldier!

Overall themes: War, independence, serving c*nt, body horror, death, stubbornness, arguments, wild & free experimental decisions, s*x, energy, power, drama, visceral emotional outbursts, things feeling real & consequential, contant taking (less giving).

This was my personal forecast for Neptune in Aries based on the prior evidence we had & measuring changes that i. occured

Neptune in Aries

Neptune enters Aries on March 30, 2025, marking a major collective shift. Neptune hasn’t been in Aries since 1861–1875, so this is a brand-new energy for our time. Aries is fiery, bold, and pioneering, while Neptune is dreamy, mystical, and elusive. This transit will bring spiritual awakenings, new leaders, and a more warrior-like approach to dreams and ideals.

This Neptune in Aries era is about courageously chasing dreams, breaking old illusions, and redefining spiritual paths in a bold way. The last time this transit happened, the world saw revolutions and new beginnings—so expect a pioneering energy to shape your personal destiny.

Aries Rising

This is your era of reinvention. Neptune dissolves old versions of yourself, making you more intuitive and spiritually connected. You might feel called toward new creative pursuits, healing arts, or even leadership with a spiritual touch. Watch out for identity crises—stay grounded in reality while embracing change. During this time, you may have a more dreamy and unclear approach to some things. You may also lose weight. This is a time when you'll feel more connected to spirituality, dreams, and intuition. Be mindful of confusion, illusions, or deception around your self-image. You might feel inspired to lead with a higher purpose—whether in art, activism, or personal missions. This transit can make you fearless in following your visions, but it’s important to stay realistic about what’s possible.

Taurus Rising

Your spiritual growth deepens behind the scenes. Neptune in your 12th house activates hidden desires, subconscious healing, and possibly karmic themes. You may have vivid dreams, strong intuition, or a pull toward solitude. Be mindful of escapism or unhealthy habits creeping in. Your sleep may be more fulfilling with intuitive or vivid dreams. Maybe during this time you can meditate more easily and you can start dealing with deeper, unknown things and also spiritual things. Travel during this time can be more illusory.  You may start exploring deeper spiritual practices like meditation, past-life regression, or astrology. You may have sudden flashes of insight or feel drawn to solitude and reflection as you navigate inner shifts. This period may require you to release old identities, relationships, or habits that no longer serve your highest growth.

Gemini Rising

Your social life and ideals transform. Neptune in your 11th house dissolves outdated friendships and brings soul connections. You might be drawn to humanitarian work, spiritual communities, or creative collaborations. Stay wary of deception in friendships or false promises in group settings. You can attract a lot of people who are more spiritual and maybe people who can help you a lot. Be cautious with financial agreements, especially with foreigners or international business. Neptune can bring confusion or unclear terms. Avoid get-rich-quick schemes or investing in something that seems too good to be true. A loved one may move abroad, or you might frequently connect with international people. You might idealize living in another country, but make sure reality matches the dream before making big moves. You could spend more on spirituality, art, or humanitarian causes.

Cancer Rising

Your career takes on a dreamlike quality. Neptune in your 10th house makes you want to align your profession with a deeper purpose. You could be drawn to healing, arts, or spiritual leadership. But beware of confusion, illusions, or being misled in professional settings. Fame or recognition could come in an unexpected, mystical, or artistic way. Your public image may be inspirational but also misunderstood. Your relationship with your father (or a father figure) might feel distant, confusing, or spiritually significant. In some cases, Neptune here can indicate secrets or unknown truths about a parent coming to light. Be mindful of financial illusions in career-related travel—some opportunities may not be as profitable as they seem.

Leo Rising

Your beliefs and worldview shift. Neptune in your 9th house makes you crave spiritual expansion, travel, and knowledge. You might explore mysticism, philosophy, or different cultures. Watch out for misleading teachings or idealizing distant places. There could be mystical or fated connections abroad, but be mindful of deception or unrealistic expectations when moving or working in a foreign place. You might feel drawn to spiritual or philosophical studies rather than traditional education. If you're pursuing a degree, you may change your path often or feel uncertain about what you truly want to study. You may fall in love with someone from a different culture or background. Sports and physical activities might bring spiritual fulfillment—yoga, dance, or martial arts could be powerful for you now. Unexpected blessings may come from foreign connections, spiritual teachers, or creative endeavors.

Virgo Rising

Your intimate relationships and shared resources become mystical and intense. Neptune in your 8th house can bring spiritual unions but also financial confusion. Be mindful of debts, secrets, and emotional entanglements. On a higher level, this transit could awaken deep intuition and transformative healing. Neptune in the 8th house can bring a heightened sense of spirituality related to death and the afterlife. You may feel more connected to the astral world or have profound, otherworldly experiences regarding life and death. This transit could involve money from others—such as inheritances, legacies, or shared finances. Intimate connections may become more intense and transformative, offering opportunities for deep healing. There’s a risk of confusion or idealization of partners, especially when it comes to shared resources or joint investments. Trust may be a major theme, and you’ll want to carefully navigate any financial entanglements with loved ones. Be careful of deceptive or unrealistic financial proposals, especially in partnership or marriage. If you're married or in a partnership, you might undergo spiritual growth together, but there’s also a risk of misunderstanding or deception in terms of shared wealth.

Libra Rising

Your relationships take on a spiritual tone. Neptune in your 7th house makes you idealize partners or attract soul connections. However, you may also deal with illusions, misunderstandings, or codependency. Balance dreams with reality in love and partnerships. You may be drawn to relationships that feel soulful or fated. Romantic partners may seem like perfect matches, but it's important not to blindly idealize them. Long-distance relationships with friends may take on a deeper, more emotional tone, and you may find comfort or understanding in people from different cultural or spiritual backgrounds. In a female chart, Neptune's transit through the 7th house can show a shift in how you view your father’s later life circumstances—you may feel a sense of disillusionment or have heightened empathy toward your father, but also potentially misunderstand or idealize his needs. In a male chart, the mother’s later life circumstances may come into focus, with Neptune urging a sense of compassionor possibly confusion about her situation. Your relationship with your mother could become more spiritually connectedbut might also feel unclear or unresolved. For health matters, Neptune here can sometimes blur the signs of illness, so it's crucial to stay aware of any changes in your well-being and not ignore symptoms.

Scorpio Rising

Your daily life, habits, and health become influenced by Neptune’s dreamy energy. You might feel drawn to alternative healing, meditation, or creative work routines. But be mindful of fatigue, escapism, or lack of structure in your daily life. Service-oriented roles may become more appealing, and you might be drawn to helping others in a more compassionate or intuitive way, but avoid overcommitting or losing yourself in others’ needs.You might be drawn to alternative health practices or spiritual healing, but be careful not to idealize or escape into unrealistic health fads or unproven methods. You could find that healing comes through meditation, yoga, or other holistic approaches. You might adopt or find yourself more involved with animals, particularly if they provide comfort or healing. You might feel that your partner is either a source of inspiration or an obstacle, but these perceptions may be clouded by idealism or confusion. You may feel drawn to wear flowing fabrics or clothing that reflects your inner world, but be cautious of making choices that might be impractical for daily tasks or work.

Sagittarius Rising

Your creativity, romance, and self-expression take on a magical aura. Neptune in your 5th house inspires artistic pursuits and deep love experiences. However, be cautious of illusions in love, idealizing romantic partners, or reckless gambling with your passions. You may feel drawn to soulmate-like connections or deep, mystical attractions, but it’s important to be cautious of illusions or unrealistic expectations about romantic relationships. You may attract partners who feel like they have a divine or fated connection with you, but be mindful of projecting idealized qualities onto them.If you have children, Neptune’s influence may bring a sense of idealism or emotional depth to your relationship with them. You might feel more connected to their emotional needs and be drawn to creative or spiritual activities with them. You may feel more spiritually connected to creative pursuits, and this is an excellent time to explore artistic hobbies, whether it’s painting, writing, music, or any form of creative expression. You might have a desire to invest in dream properties or inherit money, but be cautious about illusions or deceptive financial opportunities in these areas.

Capricorn Rising

Your home and family life become more fluid and intuitive. Neptune in your 4th house can inspire you to create a dreamy sanctuary, reconnect with your ancestors, or explore emotional healing. But watch out for family secrets, confusion. During this transit, you may experience a strong pull toward spiritualizing your home and family life. You might feel a desire to redecorate, renovate, or transform your living space in a way that aligns more with your spiritual, emotional, or aesthetic needs. Your home environment may also take on an ethereal, dreamlike quality, and you may be drawn to spaces that feel magical, calming, or deeply nurturing. Neptune could inspire a deeper connection to food as a spiritual or healing experience, and you may find comfort in cooking, baking, or preparing meals with a more artistic or intuitive touch. As Neptune transits through your 4th house, you may start to think more about your future and what kind of legacy you want to leave behind. This could also be a time when you feel more connected to your inner child or seek to heal any emotional wounds related to your upbringing. You can also move into a dream home or home by the sea. Moving also involves aromantic partner.

Aquarius Rising

Your communication, learning, and thinking patterns become more intuitive and artistic. Neptune in your 3rd house can enhance your imagination, writing, and spiritual insights. However, be wary of misunderstandings, mental fog, or misinformation. You might find that you are more sensitive to others’ feelings and can communicate in ways that feel more compassionate and understanding. Misunderstandings or confusions in communication are possible, and you might have trouble expressing yourself in a direct or practical manner. Relationships with siblings and relatives may take on a more dreamy, idealistic, or even mysterious quality. You may feel more drawn to intuitive or spiritual tools like meditative driving or using digital spaces to connect with your inner world. You might have trouble with computer malfunctions, driving errors. While this can be an excellent time for creative writing or artistic projects. You might feel a yearning to leave behind old structures and embark on a more idealized or dreamy lifestyle. This could be a time when you feel like the escape from your current living situation is necessary for your spiritual growth or self-discovery, but be cautious about any illusions about the new environment

Pisces Rising

Your values, money, and self-worth go through a transformation. Neptune in your 2nd house can bring financial dreams but also illusions—avoid unrealistic money decisions. On a deeper level, your sense of security will shift toward more spiritual and creative fulfillment. You may feel a desire to detach from material concerns and seek fulfillment through more spiritual or artistic means. Be cautious about overspending or investing in ventures that seem too good to be true. Neptune here can inspire a deep emotional connection to music or art, whether through listening, creating, or finding a way to turn your creative expression into a source of income. You may feel drawn to gourmet foods, luxurious dining experiences, or even exploring diets that align with your spiritual or emotional needs.This transit may bring up deep emotional feelings and memories related to your sense of self-worth and security. Neptune in the 2nd house can bring complicated feelings around inheritances or shared resources, especially those involving a spouse.

neptune into aries!!!!!!!

you know i'm not the fearmongering kind, so believe me when i say that this Very Big News has both good and bad points. the end of an era begins, but the start of the new one overlaps with it and the coexist together for some time. specifically from now until the end of january, due to a retrograde bringing back into its home of pisces until it enters aries for good.

the kind of scary news: the last time this happened was the US civil war. as if we need more revolution/civil war/economic turmoil vibes. but there you go. i'm not saying history repeats itself, but mark twain was sure right about it rhyming.

neptune has a lot to do with illusions, delusions, manipulation, and confusion.

on the brighter side it is also dreams, glamor, unconditional love, oneness with the universe, and oceanic depth. some great things certainly came about as a result of the civil war too, and elsewhere in the world due to other events around that time.

neptune doesn't leave aries for taurus for over a decade, so start to get a feel for this new vibe and make yourself at home. we've been in neptune in pisces era since 2011/2012. it's quite a shakeup. like waking up from a dream, maybe.

Neptune was last in Aries from 1861 to 1875 and brought to light humanity´s impulsiveness translated into wars, the creativity to invent and the determination to discover.

As Neptune transits the signs, it reveals what we idealise and look to for redemption or salvation. In Capricorn (1984-1998) it fed the idealisation of corporations and big business and in Aquarius (1998-2012) it idealised science and technology. In Pisces (2011-2025), it appears to be idealising deception itself because we’re all drowning in fake news and propaganda in a crazy-making post-truth hall of mirrors.

PREDICTION FOR 2025-2039:

Neptune in Aries could bring pioneering visions that reach into every part of society, with lots of new ideas and progressive thinking. There could be idealistic revolutions and social activism, visionary rebellions, crusades for truth and religious wars. Wars may be fought based on lies and deception (nothing new there then), or fought with bioweapons, chemicals and viruses.

At best, Neptune could inspire compassionate action and leadership that takes us away from the potential for war. But it could just as easily reveal the corruption and weakness of leaders that create power vacuums and trigger war by accident.

There may also be a massive loss of faith in leadership, a loss of belief in the nation or the system. People could turn away from the system out of disillusionment or even boredom, and lose themselves in escapist pursuits, like gaming or virtual reality.

1st House Vs. 7th House

1st House is where you meet yourself.

It is the moment you take your first breath, the way your presence enters a room, the force that propels you forward.

Ruled by Mars, this house speaks of autonomy, identity, and the battle between self-determination and external expectations.

It is the warrior’s ground, where you carve your path, stumble, rise, and forge your own fire.

7th House is where you meet others.

It is the mirror of Venus, the realm of unions, contracts, love, and reflections of the self through partnership.

Here, the world whispers, "Who are you in relation to me?" It is the place where bonds are made, broken, tested, and transformed.

This is the house of agreements, but also confrontations—the home of both love and enmity, where your heart meets its counterpart in another.

Deepest Hurts Of 1st House

The wounds of the 1st house stem from feeling unseen, unheard, or misunderstood in one’s core being. It is the pain of forging an identity only to be dismissed, of standing alone when all you crave is recognition.

It asks, "Can I be loved as I am, without altering myself for acceptance?"

Deepest Hurts Of 7th House

The wounds of the 7th house cut through the realm of relationships. It is the ache of betrayal, the sorrow of loving someone who does not choose you back, the loss of self in the name of love.

It whispers, "How much of myself do I give before I am emptied?"

Behavioral Struggles of the 1st House

1. Struggling with self-assertion vs. people-pleasing.

2. Feeling the need to fight for space, even when no one is against you.

3. Acting impulsively and regretting it later.

4. Fear of dependency or being controlled by others.

5. Viewing vulnerability as weakness.

6. Feeling restless, as if always preparing for battle.

7. A deep need to prove oneself constantly.

8. Unconscious resistance to collaboration.

9. Misunderstanding the difference between independence and isolation.

10. Seeing relationships as threats to personal freedom.

Behavioral Struggles of the 7th House

1. Losing oneself in relationships.

2. Seeking external validation over internal stability.

3. Fearing loneliness and overcompromising.

4. Idealizing love and being devastated when reality strikes.

5. Choosing partners based on what they reflect, not who they are.

6. Holding onto toxic relationships out of fear of being alone.

7. Struggling with boundaries—giving too much or taking too little.

8. Projecting unhealed wounds onto others.

9. Resenting partners but fearing separation.

10. Using relationships as a measure of self-worth.

How to Channel the 1st-7th House Axis in Each Sign

Aries-Libra Axis

Learn when to lead and when to listen. Assert yourself without crushing the beauty of connection.

Taurus-Scorpio Axis

Balance stability with transformation. Hold on without suffocating, let go without fearing destruction.

Gemini-Sagittarius Axis

Speak your truth, but seek depth in the words you exchange. Learn when to wander and when to stay.

Cancer-Capricorn Axis

Feel without fear, structure without suffocation. Embrace both softness and resilience.

Leo-Aquarius Axis

Shine, but not at the expense of others. Honor your uniqueness while uplifting those around you.

Virgo-Pisces Axis

Serve with wisdom, dream with purpose. Merge the mystical with the practical, knowing that both are needed.

.......

This axis is not a war.

It is a lifelong conversation between who you are and who you choose to meet along the way.

Life Is Golden

Sunday - April 27, 2025

Today I'm not going to discuss the astrological transits specifically. They are listed on todays graphic for your reference.

Instead I will just say this about today's transits and their teaching ... Life is Golden.

I know we have moments - or years! - that are less than golden. But life really is special, great, awesome and a privilege. Being here on Mother Earth is beautiful, with a display of splendor unseen anywhere else in the Universe.

And life just flows easier when we remember that it's golden, do what we can to clean the tarnished parts, and then shine on.

Yep. That's what the planets say today.

Slow Down & Make Room for New Beginnings

(From Now Until April 7th, 2025)

♈️🌷Aries/Spring Equinox Season

♓️Venus just retrograded back into Pisces (Mar. 27)

♈️New moon/solar eclipse in Aries (Mar. 29)

♓️Mercury retrogrades back into Pisces (Mar. 29)

♈️Neptune moves into Aries (Mar. 30)

There is a big dance going on between Pisces and Aries energies right now. And as we are in the season of the Spring Equinox, balance is a central theme of this time of year. With all the Pisces and Aries energy going on, this is a time of balancing doing with being. Even though it’s Aries season, Pisces energy is dominant. Right now, more being and less doing is needed in order to bring ourselves into balance.

This is also a time of working with what is ending, as well as what is beginning at the same time. We are being called to let go of the old in order to make room for the new, which is more sensed than seen at this time. We are being nudged to flow with the changes in our lives.

Around the new moon/solar eclipse in Aries on March 29th, we have support for taking steps to bring our dreams and inspirations into reality. It’s important that any action we take comes from an inspired and centered place, and that we proceed forward slowly and gently, without moving too fast or pushing too hard.

Here are some ideas that may be helpful in working with the energy from now until Mercury goes direct on April 7th:

🌊Place intentional focus on self-acceptance and self-compassion

🌊Carve out plenty of unstructured time for rest, relaxation, just being, and going wherever inspiration leads

🔥If you have the energy/motivation, do some spring cleaning with the intention of getting rid of the old to make space for the new

🔥Open the windows and let the fresh spring air in with the intention of airing out the old and welcoming in the new

☯️Collect rain water on rainy days and leave the water out to absorb the rays of the sun on sunny days — use this water in baths, showers, or ritual for healing, integration, and balance

Saturn in Aquarius < Pluto in Aquarius

THRIFTERS REJOICE ＆ UNITE WE ABOUT TO EAT GOOD UNDER THESE HARSH CONDITIONS!

Small extra tidbit I'll remind y'all about, always thrift and go secondhand to invent new styles.

If the grunge movement of the early 90s (via Saturn in Aqua) inspired the secondhand culture of grunge clothes, then this transit with a lot of jobs being lost, Forever 21 and 23nMe going bankrupt, not to mentions others possibly (down the line), this will end up becoming the ultimate test of companies that last the "skin-shedding" of capitalism. You can't kill capitalism entirely, let's admit. But you definitely cannot take the socialist aspects out of people either. Democracy and Republicanisms, much to the same chagrin of Fascism and Communism are now thrown around left and right to justify emotional outbursts. The air & fire energy, while charged, are not here to hold or coddle your views. They're here to teach you. And much like a kid who's been behind on homework for the past few months, you best be on it or get dropped by the adaptiveness of society. The key (again), isn't to mope. But to challenge and bend the norm. Your ideas hafta consistently be on a changeable basis. Much to the same chagrin (again), like your wallets. Bend, morph and change with ease. No regrets or emotional ties.

Be safe. And welcome to Neptune in Aries. KEEP IT RADICAL AND DON'T GIVE ANY F****S. LOVE Y'ALL SM <3

𝄞⨾𓍢ִ໋ Neptune in Aries is going to be wild.

[libra-stellium]

Wait I kinda feel bad for the Saturn in Aries people awww they’re having their Saturn return at the beginning of Neptune in Aries when no one around rn understands what that energy is like 😭 us Saturn in Pisces people we got the tail end of Neptune in Pisces so we were already used to that energy in our Saturn house for a decade! I feel like it was easier to discern what was saturn return related omg y’all need a support group!

[first-saturn-return]

Sorrow is an expression of Saturn, and reconciliation is an expression of Neptune. They will be in conjunction in 2026.

March 2025 Important Dates

AKA my notes on The Astrology Podcast's March Forecast, hosted by Chris Brennan and Austin Coppock. It's a big month ahead and I'm already late, so I'm gonna skip the recap for today.

We enter March on the back off Mars finally going direct, but now it's Venus's turn to go retrograde! As these two planets dance with each other and the Sun, we'll launch into eclipse season and Mercury retrograde, with Neptune adding influence to everything before ingressing to Aries for the next ~15 years.

Mars's station in late February still hangs heavily over the next few weeks--we may have a lingering feeling of exhaustion or conflict highlighted by the retrograde, though the direct station shows us the way forward.

March 1st - Venus stations Retrograde She's been slowing down for the past couple months as she passed her shadow period in Pisces, but now we're really in it. Venus is at her brightest right before her retrograde, after which she slows down and then disappears within the Sun's rays for 40 days and 40 nights. Symbolically, she goes to the underworld and eventually emerges through the other side (from evening to morning star) as a new person. During this time we deeply question Venusian matters, often "What and who do I really want?"

Venus rx is a great time to redesign areas of your life (look to the Aries-Pisces houses she'll be revisiting) or reevaluating your creative pursuits. Other keywords involve relationship turning points or breakups--Dorotheus (~500 CE) actually has a horary (casting chart for a question the moment it's asked) guideline for this: if Venus has yet to conjoin the Sun, he predicts a lost lover/spouse will return because there's still a celestial union to be made, but if Venus has already had her cazimi, they won't. In general, let things shake out before trying to make permanent decisions, because changeups are still ahead anyways. This may also be a good time to follow the beat of your own drum, even if it doesn't line up with what everyone else expects. Sometimes a weird approach works, and works just for you (a key signature of people born under Venus rx).

March 2nd Sun square Jupiter, Mercury conjunct Neptune

March 3rd - Mercury enters Aries Mercury is going to spend a lot of time here, as he'll station retrograde on the 15th.

March 5th - Electional chart for the month (not pictured)

The chart is for around 10:30am local time, with 12 Gemini on the Ascendant. This places Jupiter right on the Ascendant, bringing boons to our ventures before things get crazy later in the month. The Moon is in Gemini, applying to a wide conjunction to Jupiter (but still within the 13° orb recommended for the Moon in electional charts). Venus is already retrograde, but Mercury is still direct and applying to a conjunction with Venus and a sextile with Jupiter. Chris recommends starting endeavors early in the month before Mercury retrograde and eclipse season starting later on.

March 11th - Mercury conjunct Venus

March 12th - Sun conjunct Saturn

March 14th - Virgo Lunar Eclipse Through his mundane studies over the past few years, Chris has found that "eclipse season" begins about a week before the first eclipse (they always come in pairs!) goes exact, meaning around March 7th we'll already start seeing the pace increase, including the rise and fall of prominent figures in the news and major endings -> beginnings in our personal charts.

This is also our first eclipse in Virgo (of the Virgo-Pisces eclipse series we'll experience for the next two years). This is a South Node eclipse, and the Tail of the Dragon connotes losses, endings, letting go, and things disappearing. On a positive note this is a good time for quitting bad habits, but this is also the kind of time where governments shut down because they can't agree on a budget and the money we normally expect is suddenly gone. We can't physically see the nodes or land on them, but they're responsible for the most dramatic change possible in the sky: eclipses. Thus eclipse events are often caused by subtle, shadowy, half-hidden processes that suddenly become very important. This particular eclipse is ruled by a weakened, soon-to-retrograde Mercury, so it will likely be particularly chaotic (the US budget is due on the 14th 👀).

We've had one eclipse in Pisces before, but this is the first in Virgo. This Virgo-Pisces series lasts longer than others, starting early and ending late. This eclipse (23♓/♍) really emphasizes the Saturn (22♓)-Neptune (29♓) conjunction. In other words, the lights are barely separating from Saturn at the time of this eclipse, with the Sun headed for a conjunction with and the Moon headed for an opposition to Neptune. Chris predicts bubbles will be popped in society & personal charts. The eclipse is also close to a trine with Uranus (24♉), which is the first aspect the Moon will make after this eclipse. Hopefully this disruptive energy will be flowing and liberating for some people. Letting things go can be freeing; sometimes the space and time gained by giving something up is more valuable than the thing surrendered. This is also a good aspect for castle walls collapsing suddenly instead of the siege we all expected. The North Node-Saturn-Neptune alignment of this eclipse happened once in the 20th century (when the Berlin wall fell), and once in the 18th century, in 1773 (year of the Boston Tea "Party").

In our personal lives events will probably not be so dramatic, but we will see walls suddenly fall down, or decide to abandon projects that are never going to work and build somewhere else. Austin urges us to look for the silver lining in the months ahead. We're not getting a lot of new good things, but negative influences on us may be themselves negated, and that's something good too. You have to let go of old things to make space for new things. We may also see in retrospect that smaller happenings now will turn out to be hugely important later in our lives. Eclipses speak to feeling pulled towards something and you're not sure why yet, or finding yourself loosening your grip on something, with the reasons becoming clear to you later. The Sun is going to make many important meetings (conjunctions) with other planets, most of which occur right in this dark period between two eclipses (Mercury and Venus are both invisible for most of the next 2 weeks!). Whatever happens at these points will turn out to be very important a few weeks (or months) down the line.

March 15th - Mercury stations Retrograde Keywords for Mercury retrograde include technical and logistical snafus, miscommunications, and delays in travel. With two inner planets (Venus and Mercury) retrograde at the same time, our expectations in every day life will be subverted/inverted/change trajectories a lot. Both planets will also conjoin Neptune as they regress to Pisces, adding even more confusion to the mix.

Mercury will also be squaring Mars for much of this retrograde, bringing speech that start fights, foul language, vicious insults and cutting words. Hidden in the peace offering is a little poisoned dagger.

March 19th - Sun conjunct Neptune

March 20th - Sun enters Aries This month the Sun and Neptune trade places with Venus and Mercury, as the former two enter Aries and the latter two regress to Pisces. All our stories overlap this month, going back and forth between the two signs. Themes we saw in January and February will come back into our lives as Venus and Mercury revisit those points in our charts.

March 22nd - Sun square Retrograde Venus This Venus cazimi (exact conjunction to Sun) takes place halfway through and serves as the turning point of the retrograde. Things won't fully resolve until April, but we'll start seeing how we can move forward. Exalted Venus returns to her throne, but finds matters in disarray.

March 24th - Sun conjunct Retrograde Mercury

March 27th - Retrograde Venus enters Pisces, squares Neptune Venus is in her place of exaltation, while also being weighed down by Saturn and confused by Neptune.

March 29th - Solar Eclipse in Aries Unlike the Virgo eclipse, this is concluding a series of events on the Aries-Libra axis. This eclipse is an especially big deal, as every other eclipse in Aries has coincided with major geopolitical events in the world. For example, Aries/Libra eclipse season a year ago saw Iran and Israel in direct missile conflict, and the next escalation occurred during the following eclipse series (as well as assassinations). Thus a continuation or escalation is unfortunately on the horizon. Decapitations and leaders of assassinations also occur under North Node Aries eclipses. As the sign ruling the head and exaltation of the Sun, leadership especially is implicated during Aries eclipses (and eclipses already indicate political leaders stepping down or disappearing). In terms of Venus and Mars transits, we're seeing a return of 1961 (the Bay of Pigs), 1929 (stock market crash), and 1969 (when Nixon took office and secretly bombed Cambodia). Both our hosts predict major power shifts and rearrangements over the next decade, with important events taking place during flash points like the eclipses. This eclipse is like the earthquake that then sets off a tsunami, which in turn causes a leak from a nuclear power plant.

For personal charts, pay attention to the Aries house of your chart, especially events from last fall (September-October 2024), and last spring (March-April 2024), where we had the first full set of eclipses in Libra and Aries. Our hosts may have to record the April forecast before the events of this eclipse occur, which makes it a big cliffhanger forecast-wise.

I didn't catch a chart in the video, so here's one I pulled from Astro-Seek:

March 30th - Neptune enters Aries, Mercury enters Aries Unlike Venus, Mercury enters into a position of fall here, so the conjunction with Saturn into conjunction with Mercury really hampers our ability to communicate.

Neptune enters Aries for the next 14-15 years (talked about at length in the yearly forecast--here are my notes). Historically, Aries Neptune has brought us some very heroic and also very violent dreams: the US Civil War broke out on a Neptune Aries ingress, and the Taiping Rebellion's bloodiest years were under an Aries Neptune. If that wasn't enough, after the eclipse activating everything in the sign, Saturn is going to be hovering around Neptune just out of exact conjunction distance for the next few months (receding at the end of this year, but coming back with a vengeance in early 2026).

My advice for the month ahead is: brace yourself for the storm and don't act rashly. Listen to your gut, wait it out, and let go of anything dragging you down.
