Neptune enters Aries on January 26 for a 14 year stay in your sign
Who do you think you are, Aries? That question could shake you to your core as Neptune enters Aries for a 14-year stay beginning January 26. This is the numinous planet’s first Aries cycle in nearly two centuries! It was last in Aries from 1862 to 1875, to be exact. Neptune in Aries will dissolve your old identities and expand your sense of self beyond what you ever thought possible.
You got a sneak-preview of the dreamy, esoteric planet in your sign from March 30 to October 22, 2025. Your mission during those seven-months was to suspend judgment, release limitations and embrace the vast potential within you. How did you do? Neptune loves to mine for hidden talents in the subconscious, awakening artistic gifts or igniting a passion for helping those who haven’t been as fortunate.
Neptune’s higher purpose is transformation, which you’ll start to feel during this year. Neptune can turn your pain into power. Don’t worry if you don’t feel this right away, this is a 14-year transit, after all! During it, you may feel an intense pull to share your healing gifts with the world, but before you do, you must focus on your own inner work.
If you struggle with anger, unhealthy competition (hello, social media compare/despair!), or swinging between over-giving and defensive selfishness, this is your moment to break those cycles. Expressing your emotions in real time—before they morph into rage or resentment—is goal number one.
If you’ve been carrying unprocessed grief, this is the time to wrap yourself in support. A therapist, coach or spiritual guide could be invaluable as you navigate this journey. Neptune’s influence makes emotions feel vast and nebulous, but remember: suffering is optional. Moving forward requires releasing pride and embracing the full spectrum of your humanity. The more you honor your emotions, the more you’ll heal.
Neptune visits Aries until 2039. You may feel lost at times, but trust that this is an enchanted forest, not a dark abyss. Existential questions will arise, some without easy answers, but that’s part of the magic. A meditation practice or creative outlet will be your best friend, helping you channel inspiration from the cosmos. Neptune in Aries will set your subconscious mind ablaze, making you a direct conduit to the muse, the divine and your own limitless potential.
