Since 2011, Neptune has be in Pisces, the sign it rules, bringing art, illusion, and mysticism to consciousness, dreams, and compassion.

Pisces is the end of the zodiac, so Neptune moving to Aries is somewhat like starting a new cycle. Neptune as our archetype of the artist and idealist, will want to find centering and new impulses in Aries. It’s out with the old in terms of ideals and in with new passions that in this early stage of a cycle can sometimes get a bit militant as new order becomes a focus.

On October 22, 2025, Neptune will retrograde back to Pisces to tie up some loose ends before more permanently moving to Aries from January 26, 2026 - May 21, 2038.
