If you have been following me for any amount of time you will know there is nothing new with what I am about to talk about and tell you all.

This all started last year. Well to be fair I would even say this goes back much further, since Covid and 2020. We have been building and recovering from that. So the impact of everything that happened last year and then this year is empahsized because we were never actually fully recovered from everything the last several years has taken from us.

So let’s take it back to last year. 2024. Pluto made a massive shift. In astrology Pluto is considered a planet. Yes I know its debatable in astronomy. But in astrology it IS a planet. We love Pluto. She is formidable in power. She represents death, rebirth and transformation. And when she changes signs, which is typically every 20 years. There is always some type of societal collapse. The death of the old and the birth of the new. And unfortunately when Pluto is involved this is never easy, nice and cute. It is ugly and devastating. Which is very hard.

Pluto was in Capricorn since 2008! Can you think back to 2008 when the shift changed from Sagittarius and Capricorn? What do we think happened in 2008? Economic collapse, housing crisis and war. Just to name a few. Sounds familiar doesn’t it? This is how Pluto goes out. Taking down societal infrastructure on its way. Pluto is also not very comfortable in Capricorn. It’s a hard planet with a hard placement. Rigid. Less fun. I would say that the entirety of the time of Pluto being in Capricorn has been not an easy journey for our little planet Earth and its beings that we call humanity. Pluto was going back and forth since 2023. It would move forward Aquarius and then become retrograde and move back into Capricorn. There was a lot of energetic whiplash that we have been dealing with since this time. But Pluto did make its official switch into Aquarius in November of 2024. This was thoroughly impacting both Cardinal and Fixed signs. Particularly Capricorn and Aquarius. Capricorn would have likely dealt with massive ego death, and loss in their lives in smaller but more potentially, bigger ways. Aquarius could feel the heaviness of the energy as it built. Capricorn could experience death figuratively and very much literally. Capricorn hasn’t had the easiest time. Nor do they ever if we’re being honest entirely. So this shift that has happened will be very important for them. And their chance to glow up is there.

Pluto will be in Aquarius until 2044. It is a long term transit. Pluto hasn’t been in Aquarius since the late 1700s. Think French Revolution. Think decapitating the mega wealthy, political, influential and famous by guillotine. And the start of the Renaissance period when there was an overwhelming surge of creative energy, art and music. Pluto in Aquarius is going to be weird. I see emphasis on technology, sciences, health, AI, robotics. And most importantly on our systems of power. Remember what Pluto represents. Death, rebirth and transformation. Society will collapse and will change.

Which brings us to present day. I think we can all agree, that if you have been paying even an iota of attention about what is happening on a global level. And let’s be real, in this day and age, with technology and news so readily available, most of us are hyper aware. We are very much seeing the decline and destruction of a society that no longer works. It has been challenging and I think for a lot of us. Scary and hard. Pluto in Aquarius. This is what we are witnessing in a lot of ways.

But believe it or not. This year is even bigger than last years shift of Pluto moving into Aquarius. It’s happening again. Multiple (outer) planets changing signs. Energy and shifts that have never happened…Ever.

The first couple months of the year have been fallout from Pluto’s big move. That is what we have been dealing with and it doesn’t make any of it easier. But at least it explains some of it.

And now here we are moving into March. Which is going to be the biggest month of the year. If you have been feeling out of sorts. Not yourself. The astrology of this month will explain why. Firstly, there are two planets that will be going retrograde. Venus and Mercury. And these two retrograde planets will be affecting love and communication. Which is a very important part of most people’s personal lives. Retrogrades build for weeks before and after. We will be dealing with that energy well into spring and even Summer. The second thing occurring during March is two(!!) eclipses. On March 13th there will be a partial lunar eclipse in Virgo. This will be affecting Virgo/Pisces but also mutables in general. Pisces, Gemini, Virgo and Sagittarius. If you have any major placements in your natal chart you will be feeling the energy of this eclipse. Eclipses grow for weeks before and after, just like retrograde planets. Eclipses represent fate, destiny and karmic cycles. They are highly transformative. They want you to level up and evolve as a human being. The energy is VERY fated right now. We are witnessing destiny unfold. And if you are someone with a Pisces or Virgo placements this is YOUR main character moment. The other eclipse that is happening is a solar eclipse in Aries which will be on March 29th. This is the FINAL eclipse in a series that started in 2023 that were impacting Aries and Libra. As well as Cardinal signs in general Aries, Cancer, Libra and Capricorn. Eclipses always happen over a 2-3 year span of time. I call them eclipse portals. It’s typically a time of rapid growth and evolvement as a person. Eclipse energy is heavy and intense. And whether you have the placements in your chart or not you will be feeling it. Those of us who are perceptive and knowledgeable to these shifts will know what it’s from. Others who aren’t might just chalk it up to “not feeling themselves.” I always recommend grounding during eclipse seasons. Because it can be intense and it can make a person irrational, impulsive and not act themselves. There also can be physical symptoms as well. Headaches, nausea, heart palpitations, anxiety etc. The energy will be thick the entire month of March. We can expect some explosive moments.

And as if all of that wasn’t enough we have another big major shift that is happening at the end of March that will be impacting on a societal/collective level. Neptune the planet of spirituality, subconscious, intuition and escapism will be changing signs from Pisces into Aries. This is happening on March 30th. Neptune typically stays in a sign for 14ish years. Neptune has been in Pisces since 2011. Neptune and Pisces both have very similar energy. We saw a resurgence of spiritual practices. I call it the “old ways” but some might say new age. There is nothing new about it. Although some people have made their own spinoffs of the old ways. So in that regard I guess you could call it new age. But tarot, astrology, healers, psychics etc have all been having their moment since Neptune moved into Pisces in 2011 and this is certainly when my gifts grew as an individual but many others as well. Again though, it’s a slow death on the way out. The big thing about both Neptune and Pisces is there is a strong level of delusion. Not seeing things clearly. Fogginess. Haze. I really think this is why it feels so chaotic right now. It is hard to see the bigger, better picture when Neptune is making its shift and causing confusion.

Neptune in Aries is going to bring a lot of energy back. It’s been missing for quite some time. I expect radical spiritual and idealogical change. The last time Neptune was in Aries was in the 1860s. We saw the American Civil War during this period of time. We also saw inventions such as the printing press and moving towards a current economic state with the opening of the New York Stock Exchange. It feels a bit culty as well on the shadow side of things. People being desperate for leadership and finding it from fascists or zealots. This is going to be bring the energy and vitality needed. But in that same token, Aries is Mars ruled. Mars is a violent planet. I do expect there to be violence. But this energy, despite the intensity of it, allows the opportunity for you to build upon your dreams. Beware power dynamics. The thirst for power.

The problem with these long term planetary shifts is they often go back and forth before actually making a full switchover. Neptune will be retrograde by the end of this year and will go back into Pisces. It is emotional, energetic and spiritual whiplash. Neptune will go direct next January 2026 and will stay there permanently until March of 2039.

The other big shifts that are happening this year. Saturn is also moving into Aries on May 24th of this year. Saturn the planet of restriction, responsibility, hard work and karma. Aries the Mars ruled, action oriented and firey first sign of the zodiac. It will also have a retrograde period around the fall. Once again giving this energetic and spiritual whiplash. It will move forward again into Aries next year.

Uranus will move into Gemini on July 7th. Uranus the planet of revolution, rebellion and innovation. Gemini the Mercury ruled, air sign ruling social charm and communication. It will also have a retrograde period come November of this year. But this pendulum effect from all of these influential planets is more than a lot to deal with. Particularly for dear Pisces, Aries and Gemini. It is being called the Year of the Divine Pendulum and it certainly will feel as such.

And then Jupiter! Jupiter will be moving out of Gemini and into Cancer in June of this year. Jupiter the planet of luck and expansion and Cancer the homebody, lunar ruled, water sign. Jupiter transits are typically only around a year. But Jupiter is actually exalted in Cancer. And goodness knows all the Cancers in my life could use some of that lucky energy.

Some other notable moments this year are Chiron in Aries will be retrograde this July until January of 2026. And then this past January we saw the Nodes shift into Pisces and Virgo which usually go hand in hand with eclipses.

I plan to talk a lot more in depth on each of these shifts as we move forward. But one thing is for certain, we must prepare for change and rapid developments in a variety of areas of society. On a very global scale. It feels like a full societal overhaul. None of this has ever happened all at once. We say that history repeats itself, but the reality is that this is going to be completely different. History repeats itself but we are also making brand new history at the same time. And with that comes a lot of feelings and heaviness. A need to protect ourselves and our close inner circles. A need for grounding. As I spoke about in my previous blog post.

If you have gotten this far in my post, kudos! It is a lot of information to absorb. And I really thank you all for being here for me. I was overwhelmed with the responses I received yesterday from those who either DMed me or emailed me back after I sent out my email. I really think moving forward and utilizing the full potential of my website is really going to be beneficial for me and my business. I hope everyone is enjoying their Sundays. All my love.
