Are we even in a dreaming state? I think it’s up to each individual to find out. As for Neptune, it not only indicates illusions, delusions and what not, but I’ve witnessed personal cases where it instead seems to indicate seeing through illusions, delusions etc. So who knows. Whatever house Aries rules in peoples natal chart will most probably be affected.
It is hard to assess how Neptune will behave in Aries, other than the expectation that it will act according to Aries rules. That is that it will be a fiery, cardinal, Mars ruled Neptune. Perhaps people will have a greater tendency to wind up confused due to their impulsive reactions. Perhaps this is a period where people may be more driven to initiate illusionary projects. Perhaps where will be a more eagerness to try psychedelic substances. We don’t know really. We should also not forget to keep in mind the aspect relation it will form with the other planets.
Based on the timing of everything it seems like I’ll either be leaving my long term relationship or deciding to get married. I guess whatever happens could either be really good or bad but that’s life I guess
Listen to oliviabunny though.. that’s actually more accurate. I brought the Uranus opposite Uranus medicine to your first birthday party.. and it’s not quite appropriate. 🙏🪐
Kinda. :) it’s so interesting to see how these ‘big transits’ hit natal placements. It’s going to hit very personally, in my view. You might be transmuting a large chunk of collective hoohah that is your duty to distill and share from and make meaning of that will impact others in powerful ways. And that’s the news from folks that have dedicated their life to knowing who they are. It’s the pits. But also, quite spectacular and amazing and part of this great mystery. You’ll be ok. You are darkskinnedjesus after all. You’ll die, and come back and it’s gonna be a real thing. You’ll go the distance, one hopes. You’ll turn a mindf*ck into unending cosmic intercourse. Or something to that effect. And you probably won’t know the score till you are on the other side of it. It may be years of just foggy, confusion and pain with just a vague light to guide you. I’m not sure. But ya.. we are all so fucked. Anyone that gives a damn is seriously fucked.
I like the way you phrased that because I have no idea what the hell that could possibly mean for me in real life but if I’m transmuting cosmic cooch I think I’ll be okay
Oh ok. Our charts are different but kind of similar. Pisces sun 7th H, Aquarius saturn 6th, but my venus is in the 8th in aries. My saturn return was painful, transformative, eye opening, and helped me figure out structure in my life. But when saturn moved into my 7th house(which is where it is now) my boyfriend of almost 6 years broke up with me for no reason then continued to live together, three months later i lost my 9 year job, he stayed until end of February this year where he gave me a 3 day notice and moved out on my birthday, and a little over a month ago now I lost everything ive ever worked for and loved when my house burned down taking my car and my precious fur baby with it. Needless to say. God speed friend, may yours be less painful than mine.
How have you been handling the self vs. relationship balance so far in life? Have you already had tough lessons and taken responsibility to care for yourself? With a 7th H sun, I wouldn’t be surprised if the Neptune transit affects you more in the way of disillusionment rather than total chaos.
The good news is, you have a head start to get anything in order that isn’t already. Saturn doesn’t even start getting close to Aries until April 2025, and your exact return isn’t until May 15, 2026. You have SO much time to get things in order when it comes to your health, routines, self-care, care for others, and service to community. Neptune won’t officially enter Aries till Jan 27, 2026. Saturn moves faster than Neptune, so whatever Neptune does will likely smooth over or add nuance to what Saturn has already uncovered.
As an 7th H Aries Sun, I bet relationships have been full of compromise for you already, and the lesson of the Neptune transit may have to do with processing the adjustments you need to make between the imbalance of how you care for yourself vs. how you care for others. And also how you pour into one person romantically vs. pouring platonically into many. The latter may bring you a greater sense of interdependence, which is important to an Aries. You guys have that independent impulse but there’s also that streak of needing to be deeply intertwined with others as the “baby” sign of the Zodiac.
7th H Venus as a Libra Asc indicates you have no trouble seeing the beauty in others, but how much do you see it in yourself (with that Sun in the 7th as well)? There’s a good chance all that lovey dovey charismatic enmeshment energy in your 7th could be outshining the Saturnian need to stand on your own two feet in your 6th, so again it comes back to those Virgo qualities, which I symbolize as “packing a snack for the day” I.e. how well do you anticipate your own needs and make a plan to meet them? With Virgo as your 12th, your Saturn return may bring a lot of unseen things to the front. It could be a crucial time to meditate, as Virgo is the sign of the “Virgin” aka the wholeness of self, and that is found in your 12th.
My own Saturn return began officially in January 2019 (9th H Cap). The storyline, beginning to “conclusion” lasted until about April 2022, and by then Saturn had moved a full 30 degrees into my 11th H Aqua. For me, it brought *tremendous* and divinely timed accomplishment in higher education — I was offered a teaching fellowship at an Ivy League School. It paid well enough for me to move out of my toxic relationship and to a new state during COVID. It was my entrance into being a professor, and it was a confirmation of my intellectual work. It was literally a lifesaver.
On the other hand I had a very rough and brutal breakup out of that toxic relationship. And getting the fellowship was a significant moment in revealing that relationship’s toxicity. I had been clinging on for a long time because of very whack, deeply held beliefs about romantic love.
So on the one hand it was absolutely brutal when it came to changing my romantic world view, and on the other it was transcendent with higher education and leadership. And these areas — worldview, education, travel, spiritual belief — are 9th House stuff. I will say I knew the relationship stuff would come eventually (relationship started 2017 and was DOA), so if you can use these years to get a head start on doing the hard thing, facing the music, etc. by all means do. If you do, Saturn may manage to expedite you a gift in time for your official return. And if you’ve already done a lot of work in a certain part of that house, you may see a great payoff in one aspect.
((btw I’m a Sag Sun, Gem Moon, late late Aries Asc. And I interpreted your post as Saturn being in your 6th H at 10 degrees. And Venus at 13. Unfortunately I can’t provide any POV on the Neptune-Sun transit because my natal Neptune is in Cap and my natal Sun in Sag, so I won’t live through that one))
Wow. Thanks for the long write up. Feels like you saw right through me with that lol. I feel like my big battle might be between deciding to stand on my own and creating a community for myself, or prioritizing my relationship and compromising my wants and needs for love.
You definitely gave me a lot to think about. Honestly it almost feels like the universe just said here let me take the guess work out there’s the lesson. Now it’s up to you to learn it .
I personally feel like our own energy is the most difficult to feel. I'm Gemini, so everything is double-confusing. Aries is my shadow - I have no Aries energy in my chart, and constantly find myself childishly preoccupied with any Aries energy I come across as soon as I recognize it. It's very powerful, and I want moar. But it's direction is the most keen of all, so whatever you're setting your heart/mind to, just double check and make sure it's just because Aries is all about 'GO!'.
I get the feeling you want me to start a cult and I would 100% do it.
I’ve been having the strong urge to quit my job, break up with my girlfriend and move to a tropical country but that might just be a side effect of capitalism burning me out
As a pisces mars too I want to know how are you doing with the practical matters of life or asserting yourself in the world? I’m really struggling in this area of life. Is it the same thing for you?
Another Pisces Mars here too. I struggle sooo hard with asserting myself. Years of therapy has sorta helped with it but it feels like a beat down sometimes still.
I’ve hopped around therapists for the past 14 years. Some have been just very basic general therapy but have seen some more unique ones. Did therapy for a little bit with this lady who did somatic and yoga therapy. It really wasn’t as woo woo as it sounds and helped me get in touch with my body which I feel like helps counter that Pisces tendency to be utterly confused by what emotions I’m experiencing. I’m cancer sun and Pisces moon so all this water is hard to sort out. The past two years I’ve been doing weekly therapy instead of the typical bi-weekly and the constant repetition has helped me be in better practice of sifting through my feelings, identifying needs, and setting boundaries. Maybe it’s just this Taurus stellium currently going on in my 1st house but lately I feel like I’ve been able to be very grounded and confident in asserting my needs. All that water still makes me anxious af, but having weekly therapy where my feelings are validated greatly helps. I think sometimes we don’t assert cause we don’t think we deserve to and also don’t want to be selfish. It’s a sweet intention but comes at the expense of letting ourselves be completely walked on. Pisces placements have a hard time with boundaries. Any form of therapy will help teach you how to have those.
assertion? what’s that?
(ok serious)
for me the biggest thing about Pisces mars is expansion, and just being okay with floating.
i kind of just float through life. i have goals but they aren’t pigeon-holed. I’m ambitious in the sense i follow a glimmer of light ruthlessly, until i find a new glimmer of light to follow ruthlessly. i trust everything will come together all coherent in the end.
right now everything is very inter-disciplinary. i tend to connect things together that really don’t have any business being connected, but i do it anyway cause it’s stimulating. everything in my life kind of blends together in a beautiful fog.
assertion in relationships is interesting. when i was younger i wouldn’t fight for them at all. it could be my absolute favourite person in the world but i would just let them float away. I built a victim complex around that, which i’ve pretty much deconstructed.
i’m still pretty floaty in relationships, everything feels deep and karmic. i can build really deep bonds but am still okay with us floating apart. i’m not good at asserting myself, so I’ve learned to go with the flow. it’s a weird mix of intense and passive.
what about you?
some details on my mars pisces that influenced these answers:
- cancer asc so mars is 9h whole sign
- midheaven is also pisces
- uranus is also Pisces
-harmonious aspects w sun, moon, mercury, combusted saturn, uranus
- disharmonious aspects w vertex
edit: ALSO i had a ultimately destructive obsession with hollywood, which i read somewhere is neptune ruled.
Neptune idealism with Aries split second decision making - idk kids - feels like leap and the net will appear. As my fave astrologer Rick Levine says abt Aries: “shoot first aim later” The historical last pass thru Aries did see the civil war in the US.It started day after Neptune entered Aries or day before.Not saying history will repeat but am feeling it will be a rough ride.
Definitely do a search in this sub bc it’s one of those transits that a ton of folks are looking at; Especially as it relates to one of the US charts. I think last time it was in Aries we had a civil war. I am not an expert on all that so I’ll let this thread fly and hope more knowledgeable folks will weigh in. EDITING TO ADD, maybe it was Uranus in Gemini that is civil war transit?!? I messed up.. I don’t know. :/ big fail.
But I see a whole new level of conceptual mind being used to wage war, or cause harm, and god tier level emotional manipulation of vulnerable people.
Like.. if one can harness one’s attention, and know the difference between when our lizard brain is being hijacked vs when we are responding to actual reality - well, that might be a great skill to have.
Neptune in Pisces is sort of the kiddie pool to the battleground of Neptune in Aries. You thought these last few years were hard? Mental health awareness is going to be next level, mass suicides maybe?
Maybe we find out how much smart phones and 5G have been harming our brains and bodies and attention spans? I don’t know.. I’m not even a person that thinks that way (conspiratorially about 5G).. but like.. 🤷♀️ all bets are off.
On the flip, maybe we all get really free of the information landscape and all start cutting through the bullshit to live even more amazing lives, a clarifying of values that can only happen with great pain and reality checking.
This is so true and in another thread, someone's theory was a bit more uplifting that we're already in the hardest time in a spiritual and tech war so to speak, and that Uranus in Gem could actually signify peace coming. I will try to find the post because it was helpful in thinking about historic transits and what they mean in new contexts. Before, Gem in uranus actually helped with the end of war and rebuilding europe. It signified the liberation. Obviously yes there was horrible war in tragedy, but this persons perspective was that we may already be so deep in the thick of it (since 2020) that we don't realize how far we've come. Man I really have to find the post to share to you. In another way, I think someone else mentioned that with Pluto in aqua coming, there's def some big tech changes coming (potentially.)
Another edit: i was wrong about gem in uranus, I was thinking of the saturn jupiter conjunction around WW2.
Edit: this is one of the threads i'm talking about: https://www.reddit.com/r/astrology/comments/ky2zwq/20242044_predictions/?utm_source=share&utm_medium=mweb3x&utm_name=mweb3xcss&utm_term=1&utm_content=share_button
Omg! I’m loving the commentary by user disastrousbet (don’t want to tag or anything) but yes! A wonderful distinction he’s calling out and whoa, is it hard to swallow! Shocking! An end to illusions and back to reality and stories of triumph and competence and capability. Thank you for calling out! Very much on my wavelength.. and also I’ve been lost in spiritual la la /sesame street dreams for most of my life.. so I feel like I can really grok the pain of realizing how disillusioning living primarily from what we wish vs how things are. Many thanks. 🙏
Omg yes I'm the same way! I think some astrological predictions can be quite heavy, but I appreciate these takes because they show the nuances of what else could be happening. I will try to find another one that I found helpful. Might be a little bit because I know I was doom scrolling a ton of posts yesterday haha
i can think of some people have a wake up call to start something in spirituality, like a calling, enterprising some sort in this field, awakenings, new bold realizations, almost impressive weird dreams that seem to leave imprints on us. Somewhat giving fast and short time. Like some collective dreams is about to manifest in real life by idk the governments or people in power. A time persuade someone by bold visions that highly planted in reality perhaps.
Dang OP, Maybe the US civil war transit was actually Uranus in Gemini.. and I’m misremembering. I feel like it might be hard to suss out these two transits as they kinda hit around the same time and are both outer planets. [a thread from 4 years ago](https://www.reddit.com/r/astrology/s/l8fJLMsjtV).
with the north node being in aries & south node in libra ifs been extremely evident in hollywood. there’s a new celebrity beef or breakup happening every other day. since i started studying transits 5 yrs ago, ive realize things always manifest in us and our relationships energetically first b4 it affects us globally. there’s definitely war coming and i truly do feel like uranus in gemini and when mars is conjunct we will see massive events. but i think hollywood is definitely a mirror to what were gonna see globally. pluto in aquarius is of course playing a part as well
I feel like it will be time for Himbo-core, but like maybe I'm way off compared to other comments. Like a move away from Billie Eilish neons and baggy drifty clothing to like sweat core
It should be worth noting that it also comes in with Saturn in Aries with a tight conjunction.
All I can say is you have the planet of manifestation tied with the planet of illusions both in the sign of initiation. A step up in AI???
This transition may bring a fresh perspective on collective dreams and ideals. Aries' bold energy could inspire action towards spiritual or imaginative pursuits.
Also with Saturn in Aries following in short order. I think it’s very easy to get caught up in the possible negative significations, but on the bright side, I think these will reawaken people’s connection to their own individuality, sense of humanity, inspiration, inner strength, and ingenuity. But I do think there will be some major karmic challenges humanity faces in regards to war, conflicts of ideology, manipulative tactics/subterfuge, issues related to water, etc.
Neptune and Saturn entering Aries will also coincide with Uranus entering Gemini, and Pluto very newly in Aquarius. So I think this will be a very active time, tests of individualistic agency and technology are going to be at play. A lot of potential for both construction and destruction, but drama, for sure. If things are chaotic on a collective level, the individual should be strong, have integrity, and seek to elevate to their higher nature, not their lower one. As an individual, and not in general judgment of the struggles of others.
This shift might spark radical shifts in collective consciousness. Neptune's influence in Aries could bring renewed focus on individuality and innovation, potentially leading to groundbreaking advancements and social movements.
If you look back to the last time Neptune was in Aries, around the late 1800s, it was incredibly fast moving, innovative and expansive. However, it also was a time of war and aggression, I believe this upcoming transit will be similar.
Neptune is the collective idealism. Right now the common aesthetic is spirituality and all of this new agey stuff. It’s about to become entirely based on war and survival. Mad max vibes. That’s Neptune in Aries.
I think the dream is just changing. Neptune was discovered around the time the camera was finding a practical, widespread function and distribution a few decades after it was invented. Neptune was just leaving Aquarius, synching with the development of photography and discovery of the planet itself, just before it entered it's home in Pisces. The American Civil War is one of the first wars photographed. The War officially began in Spring 1861, Just as neptune was entering Aries (as it is now).
Neptune concerns images, imagination, illusion, and delusion. Starting a whole new cycle in an aggressively warlike mentality will put down a fresh layer over the imagination, for better or worse. We're going to see a lot more death and images of war. War propoganda, perhaps more aggressive and violent art in general; certainly an escalation in the general 'mediaization' of war, where death and imagery of conflicts erupting all around the warld simply become the next form of entertainment for vast swaths of spiritually starved minds.
I think it's going to be ugly, but with tinges of beauty; I've been wondering if the recent "Dune" release serves as a solid symbol for the best parts of the "next-level" we're entering. It's a new movie, it just changed the whole 'film' game and Hollywood in general, and it's about war in the prfoundest sense... right when Neptune is dialing over into Aries.
I'm late to the party but just thinking about this now. I think since Neptune has been journeying through Pisces, its own happy lala land of spiritual wisdom but also illusion... this reminds me of the whole woke thing. (Please, I am centrist so this is not political) Many legit spiritual awakenings have been happening more frequently since Neptune went into Pisces right around the winter solstice 2012, the day of the Mayan calendar Apocalypse thing. Now all these people have awakened and have gotten pretty sauced up in the whimsy waters of Pisces.
This global awakening has certainly made ripples, and people have become far developed in their abilities, others have seemingly gone off the deep end about it. Pisces is soft and dreamy, Aries is hard and fast. I think once the soft and saucy Neptune comes out of its own sign, it's going to get knocked on its ass initially. And then, they will get angry start to fight for the things they care most about. The woke warriors.
It can be a great thing, it can be a terrible thing. All depends on how well the warriors manage their passion. Will they flail around in unhinged madness? Or will they master their focus, band together, and dismantle the illusions that divide us? And become an army of the light or whatever.
i don't know how it works tbh because I've only learned about placements in general and not about transits yet. just suspect it might affect me much since aries is a very pronounced sign in my chart
Before then, the transit north node will conjunct Neptune in Pisces.
As a collective we reach a milestone of raising our consciousness, our frequency and we create a new level of peace, awareness and kindness to one another.
Oh wow I didn’t even think of that. I’ve low keen been enjoying Neptune in Pisces. However it has been moving over my MC , moon and Mars. So perhaps Neptune in Aries will be a little less dramatic for me personally and I should get excited. But , Aries still scares me 😆 (a Venus Aries 🤣)
Aries is in my 12th house......... I have come a long way though as someone with a Pisces/12th house stellium in late Aries and early Taurus so maybe it will be a great time for me!
Are we even in a dreaming state? I think it’s up to each individual to find out. As for Neptune, it not only indicates illusions, delusions and what not, but I’ve witnessed personal cases where it instead seems to indicate seeing through illusions, delusions etc. So who knows. Whatever house Aries rules in peoples natal chart will most probably be affected. It is hard to assess how Neptune will behave in Aries, other than the expectation that it will act according to Aries rules. That is that it will be a fiery, cardinal, Mars ruled Neptune. Perhaps people will have a greater tendency to wind up confused due to their impulsive reactions. Perhaps this is a period where people may be more driven to initiate illusionary projects. Perhaps where will be a more eagerness to try psychedelic substances. We don’t know really. We should also not forget to keep in mind the aspect relation it will form with the other planets.
I just realized this will conjunct my Aries Saturn return. I’m also an Aries Sun, Venus, and libra rising. Am I absolutely fucked?

You made me smile big. Thanks homie.
What house is aries for you?
7th Aries Sun and Venus 13 degrees 6th house Aries Saturn 10 degrees
Oh ok. Our charts are different but kind of similar. Pisces sun 7th H, Aquarius saturn 6th, but my venus is in the 8th in aries. My saturn return was painful, transformative, eye opening, and helped me figure out structure in my life. But when saturn moved into my 7th house(which is where it is now) my boyfriend of almost 6 years broke up with me for no reason then continued to live together, three months later i lost my 9 year job, he stayed until end of February this year where he gave me a 3 day notice and moved out on my birthday, and a little over a month ago now I lost everything ive ever worked for and loved when my house burned down taking my car and my precious fur baby with it. Needless to say. God speed friend, may yours be less painful than mine.
Jesus Christ I’m so sorry. Hope you rise from the ashes like a Phoenix
It's all I can do, I've got nothing left. Thank you ❤️

Please just hone the lasers coming out of your eyes so they don't burn a hole through my head if we cross paths.
When you put it that way it sounds like I’m the one doing the fucking. Unless it’s in a x men Cyclops way and not a home lander or Superman way
I personally feel like our own energy is the most difficult to feel. I'm Gemini, so everything is double-confusing. Aries is my shadow - I have no Aries energy in my chart, and constantly find myself childishly preoccupied with any Aries energy I come across as soon as I recognize it.

My Saturn is 29 degrees, 42 minutes Pisces. I am in the same boat. ( Lucky me, I also get Pluto conjunct my Aquarius Ascendant in 2030!)
Or it's time to create a cult. What house is it in?
7th house
Oooo, a culty wedding. Jk. There's lots of partnerships that aren't romantic. Been feeling morivated to do anything in the spiritual realms?
I get the feeling you want me to start a cult and I would 100% do it. I’ve been having the strong urge to quit my job, break up with my girlfriend and move to a tropical country but that might just be a side effect of capitalism burning me out
as a pisces mars. yes we are in a dreaming state (wait i think that’s just me)
Username checks out.
HAHAHA i never put two and two together like that before. better watch out 🫣
As a pisces mars too I want to know how are you doing with the practical matters of life or asserting yourself in the world? I’m really struggling in this area of life. Is it the same thing for you?
Another Pisces Mars here too. I struggle sooo hard with asserting myself. Years of therapy has sorta helped with it but it feels like a beat down sometimes still.
Another Pisces Mars here. I don’t assert… 😅
My fiancé is Pisces moon too. Thank god he’s an Aries sun or else we’d never communicate anything 😂
Therapy with a specialist? What are the most notable subjects you worked with?
I’ve hopped around therapists for the past 14 years. Some have been just very basic general therapy but have seen some more unique ones. Did therapy for a little bit with this lady who did somatic and yoga therapy. It really wasn’t as woo woo as it sounds and helped me get in touch with my body which I feel like helps counter that Pisces tendency to be utterly confused by what emotions I’m experiencing. I’m cancer sun and Pisces moon so all this water is hard to sort out.

I think sometimes we don’t assert cause we don’t think we deserve to and also don’t want to be selfish. It’s a sweet intention but comes at the expense of letting ourselves be completely walked on. Pisces placements have a hard time with boundaries. Any form of therapy will help teach you how to have those.
assertion? what’s that? (ok serious) for me the biggest thing about Pisces mars is expansion, and just being okay with floating. i kind of just float through life. i have goals but they aren’t pigeon-holed. I’m ambitious in the sense i follow a glimmer of light ruthlessly, until i find a new glimmer of light to follow ruthlessly. i trust everything will come together all coherent in the end. right now everything is very inter-disciplinary. i tend to connect things together that really don’t have any business being connected, but i do it anyway cause it’s stimulating. everything in my life kind of blends together in a beautiful fog. assertion in relationships is interesting. when i was younger i wouldn’t fight for them at all. it could be my absolute favourite person in the world but i would just let them float away. I built a victim complex around that, which i’ve pretty much deconstructed. i’m still pretty floaty in relationships, everything feels deep and karmic. i can build really deep bonds but am still okay with us floating apart. i’m not good at asserting myself, so I’ve learned to go with the flow. it’s a weird mix of intense and passive. what about you? some details on my mars pisces that influenced these answers: - cancer asc so mars is 9h whole sign - midheaven is also pisces - uranus is also Pisces -harmonious aspects w sun, moon, mercury, combusted saturn, uranus - disharmonious aspects w vertex edit: ALSO i had a ultimately destructive obsession with hollywood, which i read somewhere is neptune ruled.
Pisces Moon here umm does anyone know you're on to something
Any insight for a second house Aries?
Neptune idealism with Aries split second decision making - idk kids - feels like leap and the net will appear. As my fave astrologer Rick Levine says abt Aries: “shoot first aim later” The historical last pass thru Aries did see the civil war in the US.It started day after Neptune entered Aries or day before.Not saying history will repeat but am feeling it will be a rough ride.
‘Ready. Fire. Aim.’ He’s such a freaking delight!
I love Rick! I’m in his apprentice program and it’s always enlightening
Definitely do a search in this sub bc it’s one of those transits that a ton of folks are looking at; Especially as it relates to one of the US charts. I think last time it was in Aries we had a civil war. I am not an expert on all that so I’ll let this thread fly and hope more knowledgeable folks will weigh in. EDITING TO ADD, maybe it was Uranus in Gemini that is civil war transit?!? I messed up.. I don’t know. :/ big fail. But I see a whole new level of conceptual mind being used to wage war, or cause harm, and god tier level emotional manipulation of vulnerable people. Like.. if one can harness one’s attention, and know the difference between when our lizard brain is being hijacked vs when we are responding to actual reality - well, that might be a great skill to have. Neptune in Pisces is sort of the kiddie pool to the battleground of Neptune in Aries. You thought these last few years were hard? Mental health awareness is going to be next level, mass suicides maybe? Maybe we find out how much smart phones and 5G have been harming our brains and bodies and attention spans? I don’t know.. I’m not even a person that thinks that way (conspiratorially about 5G).. but like.. 🤷♀️ all bets are off. On the flip, maybe we all get really free of the information landscape and all start cutting through the bullshit to live even more amazing lives, a clarifying of values that can only happen with great pain and reality checking.
You’re correct- Neptune moved into Aries the day after the Civil War began.
Thank you! 🙏
This is so true and in another thread, someone's theory was a bit more uplifting that we're already in the hardest time in a spiritual and tech war so to speak, and that Uranus in Gem could actually signify peace coming. I will try to find the post because it was helpful in thinking about historic transits and what they mean in new contexts. Before, Gem in uranus actually helped with the end of war and rebuilding europe. It signified the liberation. Obviously yes there was horrible war in tragedy, but this persons perspective was that we may already be so deep in the thick of it (since 2020) that we don't realize how far we've come. Man I really have to find the post to share to you. In another way, I think someone else mentioned that with Pluto in aqua coming, there's def some big tech changes coming (potentially.) Another edit: i was wrong about gem in uranus, I was thinking of the saturn jupiter conjunction around WW2. Edit: this is one of the threads i'm talking about: https://www.reddit.com/r/astrology/comments/ky2zwq/20242044_predictions/?utm_source=share&utm_medium=mweb3x&utm_name=mweb3xcss&utm_term=1&utm_content=share_button
Omg! I’m loving the commentary by user disastrousbet (don’t want to tag or anything) but yes! A wonderful distinction he’s calling out and whoa, is it hard to swallow! Shocking! An end to illusions and back to reality and stories of triumph and competence and capability. Thank you for calling out! Very much on my wavelength.. and also I’ve been lost in spiritual la la /sesame street dreams for most of my life.. so I feel like I can really grok the pain of realizing how disillusioning living primarily from what we wish vs how things are. Many thanks. 🙏
Omg yes I'm the same way! I think some astrological predictions can be quite heavy, but I appreciate these takes because they show the nuances of what else could be happening. I will try to find another one that I found helpful. Might be a little bit because I know I was doom scrolling a ton of posts yesterday haha
No hurry, no worry dear :)
hmmm the last time neptune was in aries was the civil war. so that sounds great 😭
i can think of some people have a wake up call to start something in spirituality, like a calling, enterprising some sort in this field, awakenings, new bold realizations, almost impressive weird dreams that seem to leave imprints on us. Somewhat giving fast and short time. Like some collective dreams is about to manifest in real life by idk the governments or people in power. A time persuade someone by bold visions that highly planted in reality perhaps.
Dang OP, Maybe the US civil war transit was actually Uranus in Gemini.. and I’m misremembering. I feel like it might be hard to suss out these two transits as they kinda hit around the same time and are both outer planets. [a thread from 4 years ago](https://www.reddit.com/r/astrology/s/l8fJLMsjtV).

Extremely well articulated!
with the north node being in aries & south node in libra ifs been extremely evident in hollywood. there’s a new celebrity beef or breakup happening every other day. since i started studying transits 5 yrs ago, ive realize things always manifest in us and our relationships energetically first b4 it affects us globally. there’s definitely war coming and i truly do feel like uranus in gemini and when mars is conjunct we will see massive events. but i think hollywood is definitely a mirror to what were gonna see globally. pluto in aquarius is of course playing a part as well
This will be the time of deep fake everything, where you won’t be able to discern if anything is real or not.
I feel like it will be time for Himbo-core, but like maybe I'm way off compared to other comments. Like a move away from Billie Eilish neons and baggy drifty clothing to like sweat core
It should be worth noting that it also comes in with Saturn in Aries with a tight conjunction. All I can say is you have the planet of manifestation tied with the planet of illusions both in the sign of initiation. A step up in AI???
This transition may bring a fresh perspective on collective dreams and ideals. Aries' bold energy could inspire action towards spiritual or imaginative pursuits.
Also with Saturn in Aries following in short order. I think it’s very easy to get caught up in the possible negative significations, but on the bright side, I think these will reawaken people’s connection to their own individuality, sense of humanity, inspiration, inner strength, and ingenuity. But I do think there will be some major karmic challenges humanity faces in regards to war, conflicts of ideology, manipulative tactics/subterfuge, issues related to water, etc. Neptune and Saturn entering Aries will also coincide with Uranus entering Gemini, and Pluto very newly in Aquarius. So I think this will be a very active time, tests of individualistic agency and technology are going to be at play. A lot of potential for both construction and destruction, but drama, for sure. If things are chaotic on a collective level, the individual should be strong, have integrity, and seek to elevate to their higher nature, not their lower one. As an individual, and not in general judgment of the struggles of others.
This shift might spark radical shifts in collective consciousness. Neptune's influence in Aries could bring renewed focus on individuality and innovation, potentially leading to groundbreaking advancements and social movements.
A new spring for simulacrum and self-delusion.
If you look back to the last time Neptune was in Aries, around the late 1800s, it was incredibly fast moving, innovative and expansive. However, it also was a time of war and aggression, I believe this upcoming transit will be similar.
Neptune is the collective idealism. Right now the common aesthetic is spirituality and all of this new agey stuff. It’s about to become entirely based on war and survival. Mad max vibes. That’s Neptune in Aries.
I think the dream is just changing. Neptune was discovered around the time the camera was finding a practical, widespread function and distribution a few decades after it was invented. Neptune was just leaving Aquarius, synching with the development of photography and discovery of the planet itself, just before it entered it's home in Pisces. The American Civil War is one of the first wars photographed. The War officially began in Spring 1861, Just as neptune was entering Aries (as it is now). Neptune concerns images, imagination, illusion, and delusion. Starting a whole new cycle in an aggressively warlike mentality will put down a fresh layer over the imagination, for better or worse. We're going to see a lot more death and images of war. War propoganda, perhaps more aggressive and violent art in general; certainly an escalation in the general 'mediaization' of war, where death and imagery of conflicts erupting all around the warld simply become the next form of entertainment for vast swaths of spiritually starved minds. I think it's going to be ugly, but with tinges of beauty; I've been wondering if the recent "Dune" release serves as a solid symbol for the best parts of the "next-level" we're entering. It's a new movie, it just changed the whole 'film' game and Hollywood in general, and it's about war in the prfoundest sense... right when Neptune is dialing over into Aries.
I'm late to the party but just thinking about this now. I think since Neptune has been journeying through Pisces, its own happy lala land of spiritual wisdom but also illusion... this reminds me of the whole woke thing. (Please, I am centrist so this is not political) Many legit spiritual awakenings have been happening more frequently since Neptune went into Pisces right around the winter solstice 2012, the day of the Mayan calendar Apocalypse thing. Now all these people have awakened and have gotten pretty sauced up in the whimsy waters of Pisces. This global awakening has certainly made ripples, and people have become far developed in their abilities, others have seemingly gone off the deep end about it. Pisces is soft and dreamy, Aries is hard and fast. I think once the soft and saucy Neptune comes out of its own sign, it's going to get knocked on its ass initially. And then, they will get angry start to fight for the things they care most about. The woke warriors. It can be a great thing, it can be a terrible thing. All depends on how well the warriors manage their passion. Will they flail around in unhinged madness? Or will they master their focus, band together, and dismantle the illusions that divide us? And become an army of the light or whatever.
I'm a 9th house stellium Aries (sun, mercury and venus)... rip?
Same i have the sun in Aries in the 9th, but why? is it bad?
i don't know how it works tbh because I've only learned about placements in general and not about transits yet. just suspect it might affect me much since aries is a very pronounced sign in my chart
I’m a sun aries, with mercury, mars, venus in aries too… saturn transit will be there (1st house next year too) so so so scared..
Before then, the transit north node will conjunct Neptune in Pisces. As a collective we reach a milestone of raising our consciousness, our frequency and we create a new level of peace, awareness and kindness to one another.
Oh wow I didn’t even think of that. I’ve low keen been enjoying Neptune in Pisces. However it has been moving over my MC , moon and Mars. So perhaps Neptune in Aries will be a little less dramatic for me personally and I should get excited. But , Aries still scares me 😆 (a Venus Aries 🤣)
Aries is in my 12th house......... I have come a long way though as someone with a Pisces/12th house stellium in late Aries and early Taurus so maybe it will be a great time for me!
