Welcome to a new era! We have officially entered into an era that none of us on this planet have ever experienced before – Neptune in Aries.

Some of you may feel that you’re not “astrologically advanced enough” to understand or even care about this historical cosmic moment, but this couldn’t be further from the truth! Neptune moving into Aries will forever change the world as we know it. Whether you’re new to astrology or an old timer, it doesn’t matter. This cosmic change will reach every person on every corner of the globe, so it’s about time you hear exactly what could happen over the next 14 years…

First, here’s some cosmic context:

  • Once Neptune reenters Aries on January 26, 2026, it will stay there until May 23, 2039!!!

What does the planet of Neptune represent?

What has the Neptune in Pisces era (2011-2025) been about for us?

Neptune has been in Pisces, a water sign concerned with empathy, intuition, spirituality, and interconnectivity, since 2011. What has this transit ushered into our world??

In Pisces, Neptune has geared “the collective dream” and pop culture trends towards the spiritual, the mystical, and the unseen. We’ve been in an era of the esoteric arts such as tarot cards, manifestation, intuition, and astrology becoming much more popular. In the early 2000s, most people couldn’t recite their “Sun, Moon, and Rising” by heart. Now, it’s almost commonplace.

But alongside this spiritual reawakening has come a wave of delusion. Neptune in Pisces has blurred the boundaries of reality, especially through technology and media. The rise of social media—right around Neptune’s ingress in 2011—ushered in a new era of fantasy living. Highlight reels replaced honest storytelling, and entire generations began curating lives that look more magical than they feel. Truth became slippery, and disinformation thrived. At its most seductive, Neptune in Pisces convinced us that the dream was reality. That we could transcend pain and messiness through aesthetic, affirmation, or escape. For similar reasons, Neptune in Pisces also ushered in “fake news” within social media and mainstream media outlets.

Additionally, this Neptune in Pisces era has brought concepts like shared human pain and trauma to the forefront. Suddenly, words like “trauma”, “healing”, and “nervous system” are known and used by all. Since Pisces craves interconnectivity, this has also highlighted shared collective pain with groups like Black Lives Matter, groups where each member can relate to shared challenges.

Since Pisces and Neptune can both gear towards substance use and abuse, psychedelics like psilocybin mushrooms, MDMA, Ketamine, and medical marijuana have grown in popularity and acceptance as well. There was a day when most people didn’t know what Ayahuasca was; now, that word is thrown around on podcasts as if it’s Sunday morning coffee.

With Neptune in Pisces, boundaries dissolved everywhere—between cultures, beliefs, and even between the physical and spiritual planes.

But time are changing… Say goodbye to Neptune in Pisces and say hello to Neptune in Aries!

When Neptune moves from Pisces into Aries, I believe our “collective dream” will shift. In the Mars-ruled sign of Aries, Neptune becomes a Crusader – pioneering and fighting for one’s beliefs.

Neptune in Pisces invited us to dream, dissolve, and escape. Neptune in Aries? It asks us to act. The collective dream becomes something we’re willing to fight for—maybe even go to war over. This is a more fiery, fearless energy, where belief turns into battle cry.

Now, let’s go back through history to understand what Neptune in Aries means for us now.

As Neptune enters Aries, the tone of the collective dream shifts from mystical yearning to fiery crusade. Neptune dissolves whatever it touches, and in Aries—the sign of action, assertion, and identity—it blurs the lines between inspiration and aggression, passion and recklessness. This new era may awaken a kind of spiritual militancy, where belief becomes something we charge into battle for. The last time Neptune was in Aries, the American Civil War erupted, tearing a nation apart over irreconcilable values. It’s as if the dream became worth dying—or killing—for.

This transit doesn’t just spark conflict, though. It also births trailblazers. Neptune in Aries has coincided with the emergence of pioneers like Marie Curie, who shattered scientific boundaries and became the first woman to win a Nobel Prize, and Henry Ford, whose vision of mass transportation revolutionized the modern world.

This is also the era when fire—literal and symbolic—rages. The Great Fires of Boston, Chicago, and Peshtigo all occurred during Neptune’s past trek through Aries, pointing to a theme of destruction and purification. Fire consumes, but it also clears the way for rebirth.

Politically, this period has brought the fall of powerful figures—Julius Caesar, Abraham Lincoln, Mahatma Gandhi—all sacrificed in the name of greater ideals. Whether assassinated or martyred, each death marked a turning point in their respective cultures, igniting movements that outlived them. And as much as Neptune in Aries amplifies the ego’s shadow, it also expands the dream of personal freedom. Lincoln’s Emancipation Proclamation and Emperor Alexander II’s Edict of Emancipation both occurred during this transit, forever altering the landscape of human rights.

Neptune in Aries brings both awakening and unrest. It asks us to pioneer new spiritual landscapes, even as it challenges us to question how far we’re willing to go for our beliefs. This is not a soft dream—it’s a burning one.

“Those who are crazy enough to think they can change the world usually do.”

-Rob Siltanen

Neptune in Aries calls us to become the brave ones—the wild dreamers, the bold believers, the ones willing to actually try and fight for the world we want to live in. So pick up your swords, my friends, and meet me on the battlefield! It’s finally time to act on the dream we’ve merely been dreaming.

I sure can’t wait to see how our world changes between now and 2039… I have no doubt that we’ll be adding a few pages to our history books between now and then.
