Saturn enters Aries
(May 24 – September 1, 2025 + February 13, 2026 – April 12, 2028)
This is a new era. Saturn in Aries is a raw push forward. It’s been drifting through the dreamy, dissolving waters of Pisces for the last two years. Now it enters Aries, where things get personal. Physical. Fierce. Aries doesn’t analyze or explain. It acts. And Saturn, planet of time, karma, and responsibility is in its fall while transiting Aries.
What does it mean when a planet is in its fall?
When a planet is in its fall, it’s in the sign opposite its place of exaltation. This is the sign of the zodiac where a planet functions least easily or naturally.
In traditional astrology, planets have what's called essential dignity. It’s a way of measuring how strong or supported a planet is in a given sign. The four essential dignities are rulership, exaltation, detriment, and fall.
A planet in its rulership is at home—comfortable, strong, and able to do its job with confidence.
In exaltation, it's honored and uplifted, like a respected guest—powerful and able to use the energy in a heightened flow state.
In detriment, the planet is in the sign opposite its rulership—off-balance, awkward, struggling, having to work twice as hard to move the needle.
In its fall, it's in the sign opposite its exaltation—challenged, uncomfortable, fighting an uphill battle, needing to get creative with energy to find solutions.
So when a planet is in its fall, it doesn’t mean the transit is necessarily “bad,” but it does mean it has to work harder to express its nature. There’s tension. The planet’s usual strengths are challenged, and that challenge can create growth, OR refinement.
For example:
Saturn is at “home” a.k.a. its sign of rulership in Capricorn. Capricorn is Cardinal Earth.
Cardinal Earth is the Energy of the Architect. As daddy of the zodiac, Capricorn is focused on building, providing, creating structure and safety.
So what does Saturn transiting Aries mean?
Aries is Cardinal Fire, the energy of the warrior.
In the case of Saturn in Aries, Saturn (which rules patience, boundaries, and long-term structure) is in a fiery, impulsive sign that doesn’t love slowing down. That’s why this placement carries the theme of learning to lead yourself with discipline and intention.
It’s about honoring yourself, and showing up with integrity, especially when it’s hard.
Saturn is all about building slowly and meticulously over time. It’s about building things that will withstand the test of time. Aries is initiating fire. It sparks, it moves quickly, sets a blaze and then moves onto the next.
The world feels different under this sky. We’re being asked to get real about our direction. This isn’t about waiting for clarity to arrive. It’s about creating it through action.
For the collective, Saturn in Aries reshapes how we deal with leadership, selfhood, anger, and ambition. What needs boundaries? What needs fuel? What needs to begin?
The Saturn in Aries generations are little baddies. They come into this world with their own authority and thus can struggle with oppression and external authority figures. If you were born between April 1996 through June 1998 this is the start of your Saturn Return.
Don’t worry it won’t be all at once, but it’s starting. Something inside you knows it’s time to step into your personhood. Time to cut ties with what’s no longer aligned. Time to take yourself seriously. This isn’t about perfection. It’s about becoming solid in your own authority. You’re not who you were, and the beauty of the Saturn return is: you don’t need to be. All the excess and masks we wear fall away, revealing the true you to yourself—maybe for the first time.
It’s transformation, and transformation is inherently powerful.
Mercury in Gemini + Mercury sextile Mars
(Mercury in Gemini May 24 – June 8, 2025 )
Mercury has just transited into its sign of rulership, Gemini!
Here, in Gemini, Mercury moves at light speed. It’s fast, sharp, precise, and full of wit in its home sign. Thoughts fly. Conversations spark. This is quicksilver energy! Light on its feet but razor precise when needed. Curiosity rules the day during this transit. Questions matter more than answers, and flexibility is your superpower.
Mercury sextile Mars
On June 5, Mercury at 23°42 Gemini sextiles Mars at 23°42 Leo. This transit will fire up your mind with fresh focus and motivation. This is a welcome jolt coming out of the slower, grounded energy of Taurus season. It sharpens your intellect and pushes you to act with purpose and courage. Words and ideas move fast, and your drive matches that pace. This is the energy of clear thinking meeting fierce action. Use it to cut through any fog and move forward with excitement and clarity.
Venus sextile Jupiter
Venus 28°55 Aries sextile Jupiter 28°55 Gemini
On June 5, Venus will move into the very last degree of Aries, and creates a sextile to Jupiter. Venus sparks bold, pioneering energy in love and creativity, while Jupiter in late Gemini expands that energy with curiosity and lightness. This exact sextile invites you to blend courage with optimism. Dare to reach out, to connect, or create with a fearless open heart. It’s a fresh, quicksilver moment where generosity meets initiative. Take a chance on kindness, say yes to new experiences, or share what makes you feel alive. The energy flows easily. It’s encouraging you to lead with warmth and joy.
This Week’s Vibe
The tone is shifting. There’s less fog, more fire. There is a lot of air and fire on the board this week, and it’s cranking up the energy and vibe as summer approaches. The sky is asking you to move forward with focus. Venus and Jupiter create a warm, expansive environment. Mercury and Mars give you the nerve. But Saturn in Aries is the deeper current: something in your foundation is changing, and it’s not a concept anymore.
This is the kind of astrology that moves you.
Trust your instincts.
Start the fire.
Begin again.
Enjoy the energy,
