Aries
"I knew who I was this morning, but I've changed a few times since then." - Lewis Carroll, Alice in Wonderland
2025 is a key year for you as both Saturn and Neptune enter your sign in spring, and thus begins the process of redefining who you are. Neptune arrives first on April 18th heralding a new era of spiritual awareness and Saturn follows on May 25th marking a brand new 28 year cycle of your life. But the path towards redefining your identity and discovering a new you may not be a clear or straight line, since these two planets work in very different ways. Essentially Saturn's arrival says that now is the time to get yourself in order, to tighten up any loose or sloppy areas and to make some serious and constructive changes to your life. Neptune on the other hand is opposed to structure, order and routine preferring a much more go with the flow approach because he knows that dreams, visions and inspiration can't be accessed under tight controls. When embarking on a journey Saturn wants a map and a plan; Neptune prefers to navigate by intuition and synchronicity. The key to making it through to the end of the year with your sanity intact will depend a lot on how flexible you're able to be and how quickly and easily you are willing to relinquish your old identity. If you can do this without too much resistance then you should find that 2025 is a breakthrough year. But for many Aries the breakthrough won't come until after a breakdown, so do be prepared for a period of confusion, disorientation and general uncertainty as to who you are and where you're going. If this happens see it as a call from your soul to shed your old skin and step into a more beautiful way of life. The best and most constructive use of the Saturn-Neptune conjunction is to take a dream or a wish and start making it real. If you don't have a dream or a vision, (or if you do but you've put it on the backburner) you're more likely to experience the downside of Saturn and Neptune which may present as confusion, emptiness, fatigue, anxiety or depression. These states are signs that you need to access your soul and find what inspires you, and then channel it constructively. If you experience a disappointment take this as a cue that what you were doing for wasn't right for you and that something better is waiting. You may have to let something go this year or make a sacrifice for a more noble cause. Grieve if you need to but don't spend too much time looking back over your shoulder lamenting any loss; just get on with whatever life is bringing to you whilst trusting that endings, separations and losses are the universe's way of telling you that you are evolving and that certain people/places/situations no longer fit with the new you that is starting to emerge. Therefore, the big commodity that you will need this year is trust. Trust that everything is happening just as it should. Trust that there is a meaning behind each event which serves your higher purpose. Trust that there's a mechanism at work behind the scenes that you can't always see but which has your best interests at heart. Life might get a little crazy this year; sometimes things might not seem to be making much sense but this is a sign that your old reality is beginning to give way so that a new one can take shape. Whilst you are bridging this gap between the old and the new, between 3D and 5D, you will need to be like a Zen master and a Shaman, bending with the wind and travelling between two worlds.
It might feel disorientating at times so you will need to keep yourself grounded. Take solace in your home and family - this is where your biggest comfort and joy will be found, and you may experience a positive domestic development, such as a new addition, a house move or simply a feeling that all is well within your inner circle. Ultimately though, any positive developments with your home and family are likely to be the icing on the cake rather than the cake itself, for the real purpose of life this year is to realise that you're not who you thought you were. If you wake up one day, no longer sure of who you are, see it as cause for celebration, because it means that you're one step closer to changing in ways that will lead to a more inspired version of yourself.
Taurus
"The gliding of the mind's boat into the lagoon of the spirit is the gentlest thing I know - more hushed than the fall of eventide." - Paul Brunton
There are several key features for you in 2025; the first is that Uranus leaves your sign after seven years. This signals the ending of a phase in your life which might have felt unstable, or at least changeable. Uranus has a habit of shaking things up so it's likely that at some point during the last seven years you would have seen the breaking of a pattern; a change of job for example, or changes within your home or family. A relationship could have changed or your sense of self and your identity could have altered as a result of liberation from certain circumstances. Either way, you're likely to be a slightly different person now and whilst all this change is good you might be ready for a more settled state of affairs. At the same time as Uranus leaves your sign, Neptune and Saturn move into your zone of spirit; confirmation that you are moving into a quieter more internal phase of life. This is a good year to turn within and access previously hidden dimensions through prayer, meditation, poetry, music, art, dreams - anything which sits outside the normal everyday physical world. It's also a good time to become more conscious of your less than desirable traits and welcome them into the fold. Trying to separate or push down any shadowy aspects will backfire and only give them strength. If you find yourself experiencing sadness, guilt, anxiety depression, disillusionment, emptiness or meaninglessness, this is a strong indication that you are being called to pay more attention to the needs of your soul and take a little time out just to be. If you fall into the trap of busyness and focus your attention on the outside world this is when you're more likely to wake in the night after an unsettling dream, or find yourself feeling down, anxious or tearful for no particular reason. Pay attention to the themes and messages of your dreams - they will have a lot to show you this year. Don't be unduly concerned if at times it seems like you are breaking down or having strange experiences that you can't explain. This is simply your rational mind being dissolved by Neptune's watery influence so that you can catch glimpses of a higher dimensional reality. A little madness may in fact be a good thing, but it all depends how far you want to go down the rabbit hole. It might be advisable to keep your feet on the ground and root yourself in everyday physical tasks. Prolonged periods of mental disturbance though could warrant a deeper exploration of your soul, perhaps through counselling, psychotherapy, meditation, spiritual retreats and so on to enable you to access your divine mission. This in turn will reconnect you with a sense of meaning and inspiration, and the more you can find a satisfying way to serve humanity the happier you're going to be. In order to fulfil this altruistic service you may have to relinquish one or two things or make a sacrifice, and yet in a way it won't feel like a sacrifice at all because what you give up should feel like a release. So if something comes to an end this year; if a door closes or someone or something exits your life, recognise the ending as a sign that a new phase of your life is about to begin; a phase that will more aptly meet your needs.
If you have a message to get across, this is the year to communicate and share your ideas with others. You could be successful in areas relating to teaching, education, speaking, studying, sales, writing, travel and movement. If you have ideas or inspirations relating to any of these then run with it because your chances of success are high. At the same time, Pluto arrives in your success zone inviting you to step into your power and not be a wall flower when it comes to public attention, your reputation and role in the outside world.
All told, 2025 is a year in which you will benefit from accessing the higher realms and sharing what you find with others to enhance the world in which we live. And if fate comes knocking and invites you to take a different direction in life - even if it seems terrifying - then take it, for as Brene Brown said, "Courage starts with showing up and letting ourselves be seen."
Gemini
"If you're not excited about it, it's not the right path." - Abraham-Hicks
Excitement might be a keyword for you as you embark on 2025, because Uranus - the planet of revolution and excitement - will launch himself into your sign in July. You may already be feeling a degree of restlessness; a sense that something needs to change but maybe you're not quite sure what. If you're tuned in, you may have an idea as to what the change might be. It is likely that over the last seven years as Uranus has been working his way through your zone of the past, that you have witnessed a clearing out process which could have facilitated an inner awakening. This internal activation and clearing out of what was no longer needed will have left you in a position where you are now ready to experience something quite different to what you had before, which is good news if you're in any kind of stuck, stagnant or restrictive situation. Uranus' seven year journey through your sign will see to it sooner or later, that you are liberated from anything or anyone which restricts your growth or limits your freedom of expression. He will also see to it that you find access to what inspires and excites you, particularly between July and October when it may be time to walk away from anything which feels flat, unless you can breathe new life into it.
In most cases this move towards the new and exciting will happen naturally without too much fuss and drama, but it's also possible that you might behave in ways that others find unexpected or unsettling. No matter, for the priority now is to be true to yourself; simple as that, and so anything which stops you from living authentically will have to go. This may mean that you begin to experience greater independence and that you become much less bothered about what others think of you. If marching to your own drum beat ruffles a few feathers then so be it. If you are an overly nice and considerate person, this could be difficult as you wrestle with a growing need to honour your own needs with the feelings of others. Remember that each person has a responsibility to themselves and that you are only responsible for those who you agree to take on, such as children, pets, plants even. But even then, if you cut off various aspects of yourself in order to keep others happy you will at some level radiate unhappiness which your dependents will pick up on and which in turn will affect their own wellbeing. Sometimes the kindest thing to do for all concerned is to live life on your own terms, but honestly and ethically.
The only real problems you're likely to encounter during 2025, would be in relation to your friends and social life. Either could be a source of disappointment or disillusionment but you could learn some important lessons here as you discover what is real rather than what is fantasy or illusion. If a friend disappoints you, leaves or deceives you, perhaps it was because you weren't willing to see the friendship as it really was. Maybe if you look back the clues were there but you chose not to see them? Likewise, if a group or organisation becomes disappointing, again maybe it's because you overlooked an inconvenient truth, or maybe it simply wasn't a true match for your ideals and inspiration. It is important this year to welcome those people who share your vision; people and groups that are a match for your ideals and who can help you manifest your dreams and visions into a reality. This is the best and highest expression of the Neptune-Saturn conjunction and if you're really lucky you will begin to find your tribe; and that in itself should more than compensate for any losses that you might experience in your social life.
Finances too are very favourable this year so money is something that you shouldn't have to worry too much about, even in a time of growing shortage. Somehow, it seems lady luck will be on your side and whatever you need will appear when you need it. However, it won't hurt to look at how you can increase your income, especially by making greater use of your talents. So even though others might see funds getting tighter you should easily find ways to increase your bank balance.
All in all, 2025 is the year to break a pattern and welcome the chance to do something different. And perhaps most importantly, to begin the process of turning a dream into reality, even though this will require great commitment and a willingness to keep going even when it seems pointless. I can assure you that it isn't pointless but it may require a sacrifice and you will need to be diligent and discerning about where you put your boundaries. You will need to keep out the people and influences that will drain your energies, whilst at the same time welcoming with open arms those who are a true match for the goodness in your soul.
Cancer
"But whatever path you choose, whatever career you decide to go after, the important thing is that you keep finding joy in what you're doing, especially when the joy isn't finding you." - Lauren Graham
2025 looks set to be a pivotal year for you with three out of the five big planets in major areas of your solar chart. It begins with the conjunction of Neptune and Saturn moving into Aries in May. This combination does not have a good reputation and as it aligns in your direction zone it may seem that the path of your life takes a strange or disappointing turn. There are a number of ways in which this could play out. Your professional life could become a source of concern, whether that relates to the job you do or your reputation in the outside world. At some point in the year you may have to grapple with an element of failure or disappointment. Maybe something isn't working out the way you hoped, or perhaps a goal or an ambition might be difficult to bring to fruition. Maybe you can't get moving in the direction you were hoping to go in. Or maybe your direction has lost its joy. Perhaps there is an element of confusion about where you're going in life and at times it may all feel a bit pointless. Whilst these are worst case scenarios it is important to remember that any malaise with your life trajectory is trying to show you something. Could it be for example, that something isn't working because it isn't where you're meant to be ploughing your energies? Could it be that at some point you took a wrong turn on the path and have ended up lost? When setting off on any journey it helps to have a map and a compass and a clear idea of where you're going (and why), so if you find yourself in place you don't recognise or like, you may need to cut your losses and switch to a direction which genuinely inspires and motivates you. Alternatively, look for the joy along the path that you are already on - especially if you can't change it. If neither of these scenarios fills you with delight then I have a piece of good news. If you have a rummage around in your backpack, you will find that someone actually put a map and compass in there without you knowing. But yet the compass appears to be pointing in a strange direction. It's pointing towards you. You see, I forgot to mention at the start of this piece that Jupiter - the luckiest and most fortunate of the planetary Gods - takes up residence in your sign from July and will stay there for 12 months. When Jupiter arrives in one's sign it is a message from on high that it is time to grow and expand on a personal level. It often brings a happy event or an opportunity that begins to turn things around and opens doors to new possibilities. Therefore, if you find yourself feeling despondent about where your life is going, make no mistake that Jupiter's arrival holds the key and all you have to do is walk through a door that opens towards greater joy. But you may first have to let go of something that doesn't feel joyful, something that isn't working. You may for example, have to let go of needing to get somewhere, or of any kind of success and attainment in the outside world, and focus instead on your personal growth and on what you can give without any thought of return. Your ego might not like this or you may have an element of anxiety about what the changes or sacrifices might mean, but deep down in your soul you will feel a sense of relief at being able to give something up that wasn't working. If you see the best of the Neptune-Saturn conjunction it will be the beginnings of the manifestation of a professional dream or ambition. But this will need to be in alignment with your soul's growth along with a very humble attitude and the ability to separate fantasy from reality. You may need to keep your vision fixed on the nuts and bolts of what you're trying to achieve rather than on the beautiful end results. Therefore, it could be said that 2025 holds a lot of potential promise, especially in terms of embracing new beginnings and setting sail for new horizons. All that's needed is to be really honest with yourself about where you're going and why, and to face the reality of what you're committing to with courage, determination and a selfless devotion to the greater cause.
Leo
"The meaning of life differs from man to man, from day to day and from hour to hour." - Victor Frankl (Jewish psychiatrist)
2025 could be a year in which you're faced with a crisis of meaning. Maybe once you seemed quite sure of your place in the world and your reason for being here; now perhaps you seem less sure. Maybe also, you never paid too much attention to your beliefs or the paradigm that you operated within; Leo is after all a sign that just likes to get on with it. But as key planets move into the spiritual and religious areas of your solar chart, there may begin to be the rumbles of discontent; a feeling of 'is this it?' along with the questioning of ideas and opinions that you once held with firm conviction. If you get this right, you will begin to experience a spiritual awakening and the whole world will come alive with meaning. Get it wrong and the world could being to seem like a very dark and desolate place. In short, this is a time when you might oscillate between heaven and hell.
On the heavenly side is Jupiter's move into Cancer which brings opportunities for spiritual growth and a joyful connection with your higher self and celestial forces. If you get quiet you will hear your soul speaking more clearly; your guides will have stronger messages and your intuition will move into the foreground. This could be akin to having a special power. You will know what to do, where to go and whether to trust that off feeling you got whilst talking to someone who appeared to be all sweetness and light. Saturn and Neptune meanwhile, are heading to your zone of religion, beliefs and philosophy. This is the place where meaning is formed and where faith becomes the guiding light. Saturn and Neptune together however are very testing and so it could be that your faith is challenged. Maybe the beliefs that you held about something are shaken and this could trigger an existential crisis. For some Leos, this could shake up a belief in God or a benevolent universe and leave you in a state of doubt or cynicism. This is more likely to be the case if you've had a series of life disappointments. When good souls act with virtue only to receive cruel treatment it can make one question what the point of it all is. If you find that you're questioning the nature of reality, or what your purpose is, or whether any of it has any meaning, it might be because it's time for you to either hold true to your faith in God and a benevolent universe, or to let go of outdated or restrictive beliefs that aren't serving you. If for example, your spiritual and religious beliefs are holding you in a moral straightjacket and squeezing all the joy out of life, it might be time for a rethink. Questions to ask at this point include: what gives you a sense of meaning? Where might you have boxed yourself in with your thinking? Are you blaming God for human failure? It's important this year to remain open to discovering new things about yourself and life. If you close down philosophically speaking, you run the risk of losing the game and suffering some kind of defeat. Everyone goes though a crisis of meaning at some point in their lives but it does pass and usually leads to something richer, deeper and more meaningful. The best expression of the Saturn-Neptune conjunction would be to work diligently in matters connected with philosophy, religion, spirituality or higher education. This will be backed up by Jupiter's position in your zone of soul and spirit. Take a subject that appeals and explore it and ideally bring it down to earth so that others can understand it too. If you have knowledge or interest in astrology, numerology, metaphysics, quantum physics, dreams, synchronicity, the ascension process, 3D/5D, God, the nature of reality, ascended masters, Angels or meditation, then this would be a great year to deepen your understanding and either share it with others or use it to generate a deeper sense of meaning. If you find yourself wavering between belief and doubt, or between concepts such as good and evil, dark and light, see this as a test of your commitment and decide which camp you're in. Once you make a decision life will respond to your inner conviction and miracles will begin to occur.
If other people seem to be acting like devils this year, do your best to avoid getting involved in power struggles with them. It could be that their darkness is mirroring something within yourself and if you fight it you may inadvertently be fighting against yourself and setting up further resistance. Far better to rise above it; to give others the benefit of the doubt and to view any kind of betrayal as stepping stones along your spiritual path.
All in all 2025 is likely to be a year with a strong focus on the non material aspects of life and as such offers you the opportunity to grow in ways which may not bring about accolades in the outside world but which will be priceless in terms of your soul's growth and inner contentment.
Virgo
"Toto, I've a feeling we're not in Kansas anymore." - The Wonderful Wizard of Oz.
2025 is going to be an important year for you, not least because Uranus - planet of change and revolution - arrives in your career and success zone. This means that your direction in life is about to change course. And this is good news because the change will liberate you from a situation that has become stagnant or which was never really you to begin with. In its place will come something that feels exciting, inspiring and liberating. This shift in direction could play out in the form of a change of job or profession, whilst older Virgos could see the possibility of retirement - although this will be no dead end but the beginning of an exciting new chapter of life. Other options include redundancy or severance, which instead of being depressing frees you up to do what you would really love to do. You may find yourself embarking on a new course in your life that is unlike anything you've ever experienced before. Such a new course may or may not relate to what you do for a living but it will breathe new life into your future. There could be a promotion or an opportunity to go down a different avenue which really excites you. This may not all happen at once this year, but you will at least see the beginnings of the shift and possibilities for a different kind of future. So it's your direction and your future in general that get the gold star this year.
Another fortunate area of life is your social life. Jupiter - planet of good fortune - will be taking up residence here, bringing positive developments, growth and opportunities through friends, groups, acquaintances and contacts. You are likely to find that people are more helpful this year and willing to assist you in whatever way they can. This may link to your work and professional ambitions where you'll find it easier to get your creativity and ideas out into the wider world.
The area that you might have to pay greater attention to is your health, as Pluto suggests the need for regular detoxing. You may not be able to get away with mistreating your body as you may have done in the past, so this year you need to be more mindful of what you're doing and to not be afraid to go to what some people might consider extreme lengths to get yourself in tip top shape. For example, things like cold water swimming (or cold showers), intermittent fasting, eliminating certain foods, or embarking on a ketogenic diet may not be for everyone but might work well for you at this time. If health conditions persist you may need to shift your focus to the underlying emotional causes and seek the appropriate therapies. If you take the right course of action and eliminate that which is toxic, Pluto could actually help to strengthen your physical health to the point where you feel transformed and regenerated.
The trickiest alignment of the year is the conjunction of Neptune and Saturn. This is going to pose challenges for everyone but for you at least it is in an area of the zodiac where it can cause less trouble. Safely tucked away in your underworld zone, you may not notice its effects too much, other than issues with finances and matters of a personal and private nature, be they psychological or sexual. With any of these areas you may be called to give something up or to face up to a reality that may initially be difficult. Don't bury your head in the sand where these matters are concerned; deal with financial matters as they arise but with the understanding that you may not come out on top. You could have to deal with a financial disappointment in that you may not get what you want or feel entitled to, or you may be a victim of someone else's deceit. It would therefore, be advisable to apply discernment and erect boundaries to protect your assets. If you find that your protections and barriers are eroded the lesson here might be that as you relinquish an attachment you gain something greater.
All in all, Saturn and Neptune will aim to show you that it's time to shed your old skin. So whether it relates to your physical health, your work and direction in life, or old habits and patterns, 2025 brings the chance to let go of what you no longer need and rise like the phoenix from the ashes. This could be a really exciting time in your life where new pathways open up and the more you're able to lose sight of the old paths, the sooner you'll find yourself heading like Dorothy, down that yellow brick road to the pot of gold at the end of the rainbow.
Libra
"If you will let your standard of success be your achievement of joy, everything will fall easily into place." - Law of Attraction, Esther and Jerry Hicks.
In 2025 key areas of your life are going to be activated, namely your career/direction, and your marriage/relationships. The former gets the gold star as Jupiter arrives in your zone of success from May 2025, promising growth, opportunity and new possibilities for your vocation and your future in general. If you have an ambition now is the time to pursue it. If you receive an opportunity to expand in your work and direction then take it, for it's probably what you need. If you have an existing business you're likely to see it grow, or if you want to start a new business things should get off to a good start. Promotion in some shape or form is highly likely and it's probable that you will be more sought after as your presence becomes more widely known in the outside world. This therefore, is the year to welcome a little self promotion and not shy away from success. This is obviously all very good and whether you're an ambitious person or not, you are at the very least likely to find that doors open for you much more easily than usual and that you have more options and choices than you're normally used to. If this is the case remember to go for that which allows you to grow and which promises the most amount of joy. This is not the year to do work just for the money; it needs to be more than that otherwise you may begin to feel quite stifled. But there's more to this Jupiter transit than work, career and success. Jupiter is set to sprinkle fairy dust on your path into the unknown and could open a door that leads to something quite magical. So in 2025 life begins to feel more adventurous, lifting you away from any dreariness of the past. The same magical wonders cannot be said of your relationships though, as the difficult alignment of Saturn and Neptune takes up residence in your zone of one to ones. This is a year in which you might have to face an uncomfortable truth if a relationship isn't working. Facing up to reality is never easy, especially if you're of the fairy tale happy ever after persuasion, but the good news is that by being honest about a relationship and dispensing with any illusions, you can move on and begin to create something more solid and true. A relationship which has reached its natural conclusion may lead to a parting of the ways but if you suffer a disappointment try not to take it personally or grieve too long. Any relationship which still has value can be healed by focussing on what is real even if it no longer matches your romantic ideal. We have to remember that people are human and can't always behave like Gods. Therefore, if you feel let down or disappointed check within yourself first to make sure that you didn't have unrealistic expectations. If a relationship is generally good and supportive, work with what you've got, accept a few faults and be willing to make a sacrifice. If a relationship feels toxic then it might be best to set some boundaries or bring it to an end. Don't be sucked in by false promises, illusions or by thinking you can save or rescue someone. Remember that the more you become sucked in to another's dramas the more you'll end up sinking. Beware of relationship quicksand this year. Keep your wits about you, create detachment in any relationship that feels unhealthy and if you are in the business of helping others - either personally or professionally - keep yourself strong by prioritising your own wellbeing.
If you see the best of the Saturn-Neptune alignment you will be able to manifest a higher dimensional relationship. This may require you to relinquish an aspect of yourself because your old 3D ways of relating will sabotage any union that is calling for a merging of souls. This is an area of life that could become very confusing and disorientating this year, as fact and fiction, illusion and reality blur. If you find that your dynamics with others result in a sense of disorientation then switch your focus to your vocation and your path in life for this is where your strength lies. The more you focus on expanding your presence in the outside world and enlarging your scope of what's possible, the more life will respond with magical results. Maintain a vision of what you want your future to look like and make joy the basis for any choices and decisions that you make this year. As you step into a higher vibrational alignment your personal dynamics will shift too, and your relationships could turn a corner without you even trying.
Scorpio
"People who laugh actually live longer than those who don't laugh. Few persons realize that health actually varies according to the amount of laughter." - James J. Walsh
It may seem that there's not that much to laugh about in the world today and yet it is of vital importance that you are able to see the humour in life's curve balls and absurdities. This will be your biggest challenge in 2025 as the tricky alignment of Saturn and Neptune arrives in your zone of health and daily routines, perhaps resulting in a lack of energy and motivation which mirrors a lacklustre feel in your day to day existence. Perhaps life has begun to feel a bit like Groundhog Day and what you desperately need now is some inspiration; a feeling of magic and colour to brighten an otherwise dull day. But sometimes inspiration doesn't come until the necessary work has been done. When we get tricky planets in our daily life zone it's a call to get organised; to not look to the sky for inspiration or to concentrate on lofty ideals but to focus on the ground and do the digging. Consider the master craftsman. He or she didn't become a master without a lot of diligent effort, perseverance and dedication to their craft. Therefore, one of the effects of the Saturn and Neptune alignment is finding greater depth in the service you provide to others, whether it's paid or unpaid work. Sweeping the floors and dusting surfaces can become a peculiar joy when you are fully present and able to treat what you are doing with reverence. And this is the key to your happiness and success this year: seeing the magical in the mundane and finding the joy in the everyday boring tasks. Start by examining the details of your work and see if you can glimpse a universe within the microcosm. It's a good year to take an aspect of your work and study it deeper, to perfect your craft or discover something new about it. If work seems samey and routine is it because your perception of it has become dulled? The combination of Neptune and Saturn asks you to become altruistic in your service to others and be as self sacrificing as possible. Quite simply, the more you give the more you'll get, especially in terms of joy, inspiration and contentment. This giving may paradoxically, be the key to turning around any health issues. It may seem prudent to conserve your energies and focus your attention on getting yourself well, and this may be true to an extent - certainly it wouldn't be a good idea to stretch yourself thin or to go to extremes in any avenue of life - but focusing your attention on helping others rather than on your own concerns may unblock any stuck energy like an acupuncture needle going in on the right spot. When we stop giving out we begin to dam up inside. The more you are able to work in a spirit of service to others the more the year is going to reward you in ways you probably can't imagine. If despite your best efforts, you struggle to find the joy in your days or if there is currently little that you're engaged in that makes the most of your talents and skills then it might be time for a change. Finding something that you can do creatively will most likely ignite the spark that connects you to the divinity within.
Health and healing will be important this year, either with you helping others in this sphere or with you seeking to refine and heal your own body. You may need to set boundaries that protect your wellbeing, particularly if you are the sensitive type. This may range from avoiding foods that you have sensitivity towards, through to shielding and strengthening your auric field through meditation, visualisation, Epsom salt baths or spritzing your energy field with protective oils and essences such as Frankincense, Benzoin and Walnut. Exercise may be another way of strengthening yourself, whilst choosing a therapy that works for you and making it a regular part of your life could be a constructive move.
In short, 2025 requires a getting real approach to your daily routines and a tightening up of the loose areas so that you can function more effectively whilst simultaneously softening the edges of any boxes that you might inadvertently have placed yourself in so that more joy and inspiration can flow. If you get this balancing act right you should end the year feeling that your days have a depth and a meaning that was previously lacking which leads you to be a source of inspiration for the welfare of others.
Sagittarius
"I have spent my days stringing and unstringing my instrument while the song I came to sing remains unsung." - Rabindranath Tagore
The big news for you in 2025 is that Uranus enters your opposite sign of Gemini, bringing change to your relationships and one to ones, whilst Neptune and Saturn take up residence in your zone of love affairs, children and creativity. The combination of these heavyweight planets in these personal spheres is likely to focus your attention more firmly on affairs of the heart than might normally be the case. This isn't just about romantic relationships though, but we'll come to that in a minute. Affairs of the heart relates to anything or anyone which activates your heart centre, and it is this elevation of your heart that is the key focus of your year and should be kept in mind when it comes to making choices and decisions. This won't always be easy as you may have to give something up in favour of something else. You may for example, have to make sacrifices for your children, or you may give something up in favour of an artistic hobby or creative project. But it could work the other way around; having to put aside a hobby or creative project for the time being so that you can fulfil your obligations. Alternatively, you may have to work diligently on a creative interest if you want to manifest the artistic dream. What you may need to relinquish here is any misplaced idea of perfection that could be stopping you from putting your creations out into the world. What you create doesn't need to be perfect; it just needs to be good enough. Any creative ventures that are in a delicate process will need ring fencing in the same way that you'd protect a young child. This may require you to be clear about when people can intrude on your time, or who you hand your 'baby' over to when the time comes. Conversely, if a heartfelt longing or desire isn't working out you may have to face reality and relinquish it. Perhaps it was more of an illusion than anything real? The same process applies to any love affair and this may be the year when you have to face the reality about a relationship. For example, a love affair could end in disappointment and disillusionment, or if you have had someone on a pedestal this could be the time when they come toppling down and you see them as they really are. Any rose tinted illusions are likely to be shattered this year, which is a good thing because it will enable you to build something real and true.
With Uranus moving into your opposite sign in July there could be changes in your marriage/long-term relationship and the best advice here would be to welcome freedom and independence. If a relationship is basically sound but which has become stagnant Uranus will help you to breathe new life into it, but any union which is stuck in old limiting patterns will have reduced chances of survival. Basically, it would be wise to expect the unexpected as far as your personal life is concerned and to see any sudden arrivals or departures as a necessary stage of your journey.
All of these personal ups and downs are destined to serve a particular purpose, which is to shake you out of your old patterns so that you can access higher levels of being. This will be enhanced by Jupiter's arrival in your underworld zone, which is actually a lot better than it sounds, because many treasures are hidden in our psychological basements and Jupiter is going to help you find them. This could be a year in which you find that the inner world appeals more than the external one, where the mysteries of life take on a much richer and more colourful hue. You may want to delve deep into your psyche with the help of a guide or therapist, or you may want to explore the mysteries of the tarot or your dreamscapes. Sex, death and the afterlife could also be topics of greater interest and could connect you with something that feels quite divine.
All told, 2025 has a strange but exciting feel; you may not know what's coming next; your heart may be in the heavens one minute and on the floor the next. You may catch glimpses of God or the hidden workings of reality. You may find yourself slipping into beautiful moments of being without needing to do anything in particular, but one thing is for sure: you're unlikely to reach the end of the year quite the same person as you were when you began it, and the more you can remember that if you want to create something, whether it's a beautiful relationship, a child, a play, a book, an exhibition or whatever, it won't materialize if you just sit around thinking about it. So take whatever is residing in your heart, commit to it, make it real and fashion it with your own hands, worrying not that it might not be perfect but rejoicing in the fact that you created it yourself out of love.

"If you're not happy at home, you're not happy anywhere else." - Angie Harmon
You begin the year with Pluto having recently left your sign so this will be the first year since 2008 that life doesn't resemble a roller coaster. You will doubtless have got through some difficult times between then and now, the purpose of which would have been to transform you and your life and to eliminate all that wasn't working. Now your attention needs to be on the practical side of life - your finances in the main, but also anything of the material realm, such as your work, possessions, bricks and mortar, property and the general physical stuff. It may be becoming apparent for example, that your foundations are not as secure as you would like and this could be generating a certain amount of anxiety. If you can't count on your home, your job, your pension or your savings pot then you will either need to take practical action to improve the situation or shift your focus so that you are not so reliant on the material realm. With Pluto settling into your zone of resources you may find that your values are beginning to change anyway; what you once felt was a priority may now not seem so important, and as this shift in your values from material to spiritual happens your material life will begin to change too. This process could happen in the reverse in that your finances change beyond your control which forces a shift in your values. Most of us place too much importance on material stuff and in these cases Pluto will strip that back to an extent to show us that there's more to life than money and the things it can buy. The positive side of having Pluto in your money zone - especially if you already have a healthy balance between the spiritual and material, or if you lean predominantly towards the spiritual - is a stepping into your financial power. Pluto may bring an opportunity to vastly increase your material resources and so long as you are able to keep this financial empowerment in check by not allowing it to inflate your ego, you could become a master of your material world. Your home life is likely to be a different matter though, with you feeling anything but a master. Perhaps you are restricted by someone else's wishes; a family member could be working against you or calling the shots. Or maybe you can't count on the support of your family. Maybe you feel a little isolated or separated from those you love. Or perhaps you have to take on the burden of caring for someone, which at times could feel anything but joyous. Or the problem could be more physical with your home needing extensive repairs or you may discover a problem that you hadn't foreseen. Either way, your domestic life could be a source of discontent with an overriding feeling of disappointment. If you feel that things haven't worked out the way you hoped then the alignment of Neptune and Saturn brings the opportunity to dispense with any illusions and face the reality of your situation. Now is the time to get real where your home life is concerned and start moving towards a workable solution. This may require you to make a sacrifice. Do you need to let go of a hope or dream relating to your home? Do you need to compromise so that your domestic life can work better? Do you need to let go of a hope that things will be a certain way with your family? In some cases, the relinquishing of property or a family relationship may be the only way to move beyond a limiting or dead end situation. If you see the best of Saturn and Neptune it would be the materialisation of a domestic dream, but this will take hard work and a commitment to the cause. Since this is the highest expression of these energies perhaps it is something you should be working towards but with the willingness to compromise or make a sacrifice so that this dream can begin to take shape.
You might be better focussing your attention on affairs of the heart, as the arrival of Jupiter in your relationship zone from May signifies a positive period of growth and development in your one to ones, and could have a positive impact on not just your romantic relationships, but on your interactions with others in general. You could for example, be successful through teaming up with someone, such as a business relationship, or in a one to one situation such as counselling, healing or in an advisory capacity. In other words, make the most of any benevolent relationship and take help and assistance when it is on offer. If you are in a line of work which helps others then this should be a very satisfying time when you can expand.
Ultimately, 2025 is a year in which you probably need to let go of something which isn't working on the domestic front so that something better can emerge. You might not be sure just yet, but once you make a decision the universe will step in and help you get to where you need to be. Then you can begin to find the happiness that might have been elusive for quite some time.

"In the long run the pessimist may be proved right, but the optimist has a better time on the trip." ~ Daniel L. Reardon
Of all the signs, yours has potentially the best deal from the planets in 2025. Much depends of course on how you handle the powerful Pluto energies as he takes up residence in your sign for the next 18 years, but if you're ready to step into your power and if you're ready to eliminate the toxic areas of your life and become a stronger, healthier, more awakened version of yourself, then you have much to look forward to. Getting the balance of power right in all aspects of life and relationships is your key challenge and if you can achieve this by neither abusing your power nor allowing others to dominate you, then you will be on your way to achieving something of significance in your life. The worst of Pluto in the early stages of your sign would appear to be a stripping away of something which gives you a false sense of power, which then forces you to connect with your true source of power - your soul. Remember this if you experience something which feels like a calamity because the chances are that fate is simply removing something which you have outgrown and which is blocking your evolution. Pluto never removes something without bringing you something better so don't stare too long at any door which closes because it is almost certain that another more brightly coloured door will be opening at the same time. With support from Uranus any changes this year are likely to feel refreshing, exciting and liberating, which enable you to live in a way which feels like a more authentic fit. It could be for example, that changes relating to children, creativity or a love affair gently awakens you into a new way of living and being, and life should in the main, feel more fun than might seem reasonable under the current world circumstances! Your only fly in the ointment is the Neptune-Saturn alignment in your mind zone, the worst of which may relate to issues with siblings and neighbours in the form of disappointment or disillusionment. If there are problems with these types of people then it may be advisable to erect some boundaries and keep a certain distance, otherwise you could get drawn into unhealthy situations. If this detachment isn't possible then look for the lesson, which may be to see people as they really are. If you are involved in areas of learning and education, such as schools, teaching or study, or in wider communication areas, such as sales, writing, speaking, presenting or anything in which you get a message across, you will need to take extra care that your communications are being successfully received and that you are not being taken advantage of, or that you don't emerge with a feeling of pointlessness. Involvement in any of these areas could be tricky this year to the point where you might wonder if it's worth all the effort. It may not be and in some cases the best option would be to let go of anything which feels like a failure. Since this combination could affect your outlook on life take care that you don't let a negative despondent attitude take over, because what you are seeing and feeling may not be the truth. It would be easy under this influence to see the glass as half empty rather than half full, so if you remember anything this year it would be to observe your mental state and nip any negative thought patterns in the bud. Anxiety, depression and disillusionment could spoil what is an otherwise rosy outlook. Remember that you create your own reality with the constant thoughts and beliefs that you hold, and a dour attitude will only attract corresponding circumstances. Your biggest task this year then might be to watch what goes on in your head. You will need to be like a sentry at the gateway of your mind, not allowing any unruly intruders to take up residence. At the same time you need to embrace reality as it really is and not escape into flights of pointless fantasy. Separating truth from fiction and then dealing with the reality in a constructive way may be necessary. Any crushing disappointments could be the result of having held unrealistic expectations or believing something that wasn't true.
All in all, 2025 is a year in which the blinkers will come off which will gift you with the opportunity of making something real out of the potential that is beginning to emerge in your life.

"Possessions, outward success, publicity, luxury - to me these have always been contemptible. I believe that a simple and unassuming manner of life is best for everyone, best for both the body and the mind." - Albert Einstein
The good news for you in 2025 is that Saturn leaves your sign in May. Neptune also leaves your sign in April, so this is a double exodus of the heavyweight planets, but since you are comfortable with Neptune's watery vibes - it is after all your ruling planet - it's Saturn's departure that you're going to notice the most. Saturn has his good points. He's very useful when our lives are a mess and we need someone to help sort things out. In this instance, Saturn walking up your garden path with a clipboard and a plan of action in hand is a welcome sight. We might not relish it in the same way we would a visit from jovial Jupiter, but if we want to make constructive changes then Saturn's your man. However, restructuring one's life often requires a lot of hard work. Not only that but visits from Saturn usually involve increased responsibility and a diminishing sense of fun and relaxation, all of which can leave us feeling a bit grey. And so as he moves on to see how the Aries folk are getting on you can start looking forward to an easier time. This is backed by Jupiter's arrival in your zone of fun from July, making the second half of the year a real opportunity to remember what it is that you love about life and to start spending more time doing those things. This is a great year for example, to enjoy a creative hobby, have fun with children or animals, (they'll help you tap into you playful side) or to simply take your pleasures where you find them. Remember also the importance of recreation; we all need time out from our work, duties and responsibilities so that we can return refreshed, inspired and invigorated. Recreation also helps us to tackle our problems with a positive spirit, since the confidence, strength and joie de vivre that results from doing what we love often makes problems seem like fun challenges. Whilst we're on the subject of challenges, your possible difficulties this year are likely to involve the material world, most likely your finances and the things you own. With Neptune and Saturn affecting your money it might be wise not to pin too much hope on investments or to have too strong an attachment to anything financial or material. On the contrary, the more you can give up or do without, the better. It would be unwise to plough all your savings into something that might not work out, because under this influence disappointment is more likely than success. It's also possible that you could be taken advantage of financially by scammers or even people around you who might abuse your generous nature. In these cases, it would be prudent to set some boundaries and protect your assets as best you can. A miserly or grasping attitude on the other hand is not to be advised either as you could end up experiencing some unfortunate karma in the form of a loss. Sometimes it may seem as though you've done everything right; you've worked hard, paid your taxes, been honest, been loyal to your employer and still you end up losing out and feeling disillusioned. In these cases it may simply be that you've done nothing wrong but you may learn a valuable lesson about whom and what you put your faith in. So long as you can be mindful that the material realm may not be where your joy is to be found this year, any disappointments will be less painful than if you make money, work and possessions your Gods.
The highest expression of the Neptune-Saturn alignment is to spiritualise your material world. This may mean giving less importance to worldly things and to ensure that the way in which you earn a living or make your money is in alignment with your values. Neptune-Saturn is likely to have a very demoralising effect on any Piscean who seeks riches, glamour and all the fine things at the expense of their ethics, whilst those Pisceans who want to earn a living simply, kindly and without ego can expect to do surprisingly well. So as you begin the year take a leaf out of fellow Piscean Einstein's book and share your gifts and talents without much thought for what you might get in return. If you can find the joy in a more simple way of life, demanding little but giving a lot, you might find that rewards come in surprising ways from unexpected sources. And the more things you can give up on the outside the more full and complete you will feel on the inside.
