The Age of Aries began from approximately 2150 BCE. This energy then overlaid the incoming Age of Pisces - confirmed by the birth of Jesus in 5BCE. Aries didn’t suddenly terminate then. The iconography of Aries was present at tthe crucifixion of Jesus in 32CEhei - pierced with nails and stabbed by a soldier using a spear.
The birth of Jesus being within the Age of Pisces his very Aries demise was not the end. He rose again and left a legacy enduring more than 2000 years -into the 21st century - as the Aquarian Age gradually emerges and with Saturn and Neptune concluding their end of Pisces transits late 2025 into early 2026.
This signals the ending period of the Age of Pisces -the early transition period - but again an overlay is involved - Pisces will infuse the Aquarian Age. It is up to us which frequency pattern of Pisces is dominant. This transition period for reconstructing Pisces is signalled by the sustained pairing of Saturn and Neptune shifting after Pisces into Aries for their exact conjunction in Aries - February 2026.
This last sign of an Aries-Pisces combination can be seen as a profound guidance for humanity to carry through into the Aquarian Age - this new age being signalled December 2020 by the Jupiter-Saturn conjunction in Aquarius and by the transit of Pluto in Aquarius beginning 2023. Uranus through Gemini will assist the shift in consciousness needed to fuse the Neptunian/Pisces with the Uranian/Aquarian era.
ARIES
Historically Aries has been pervasively and cross culturally/globally expressed in ways that equate more with toxic masculinity than the Divine Masculine archetype. The amount of suffering loss and trauma experienced over the millennia since the Age of Aries onset is incalculably immense.
The use of weaponry in war crime and abuse has not abated. By the 2020s the increase in combat and high contact sports has increased and extended to now involve more women. Physical and weaponry violence has become deeply embedded across the globe signalling a state of crisis for humanity: Age of Aries unfinished business has overwhelmed Pisces within the Age of Pisces. Humanity has to find the turning point and understand the role of both Aries and Pisces in their proper expression - or risk facing further severe regression to a more brutal world.
Only a percentage of people are born with planets in Aries but all of humanity are born with the Aries planet Mars playing a role in how we assert ourself and interact with others.
The worst traits of Aries and Mars are activated within humanity as a whole by the delusion of feeling alone separate weak and without a well formed identity. These traits emerge when the Pisces principles are lost or forgotten: we incarnate from a state of unity in the formless dimension and find ourselves as a distinct being in a body. Without support to adjust to such a different reality - ideally this means a stable and supportive family life - many will struggle to adapt. Those born with Aries planets or a very strong Mars energy can face this challenge most clearly.
If there are Pisces planets present with the Aries there is greater support to bring in the spiritual perspective. Chiron in Aries cannot be overlooked: it is a major signifier of adjustment issues. As Aries has strong masculine Mars-type traits the issues are more difficult for men to resolve and for women who have a strong genetic connection ( shown by “astro DNA” ) to their father’s Aries or Mars expressions.
Problematic Aries/Mars can be selfish narcissistic and extend in some to very hostile aggressive and violent behaviours -depending upon the modifiers -being other planet connections that increase or decrease worst traits. Relationships can be harmed by an Aries or Mars driven person who is unable to be a true partner.
There is a clear balance needed between Aries-Pisces or Mars-Neptune factors in a person. Where there is a deficient or problematic Neptune or Pisces factor leaves Mars/Aries unconstrained - such as demonstrated by a person with a behavioural or substance addiction who abuses alcohol or drugs and then becomes irritable argumentative aggessive or violent. Alcoholics can show a significant degree of selfishness.
Porn addiction is also a severe derangement of the Neptune-Mars dynamic that may also show in some through Pisces-Aries issues.
Seeking spirit in a bottle or a powder or pill has been a long-known default instead of getting to the source of the distress. Access to the internet (an Aquarian-Neptune concept) has taken behavioural addictions including gaming and gambling and abuse to unprecedented levels. Such things have caused immense damage and cannot serve humanity’s future evolution.
Essentially Aries/Mars energy is due for a big fix and Saturn and Neptune have come calling in 2025 but their only conjunction is set for February 2026 at 0ºAries - the marker of New Beginnings. Shifts in behaviour will be demanded and encouraged - some by external pressures some by new programming being downloaded from our planets with no conscious awareness.
SATURN and NEPTUNE in ARIES
SATURN IN ARIES has the primary role of creating a well formed personality structure and sense of identity - so that there is no need to fight compete attack or kill or dehumanise anyone or any other sentient being.
Achieving such a state of healing having held long-term patterns of low self esteem is not a rapid process and not usually pursued as a direct personal choice
Being witness to the horrors of violence war and aggression is one major awakening that can turn people away from the damaging path that can pose risks for Aries/Mars people and those who know them.
Societal challenges faced by many in the mid-late 2020s are capable at times of limiting money possessions and lifestyle and may pressure the self-centred and selfish to be more sharing instead of their usual Me First way of functioning.
The intention of the Saturn transit is intended to constrain negative Aries/Mars traits because they are out of alignment with universal law based in unity consciousness and where harm is not present.
In this way Saturn supports the Neptunian intention: the Self needs to be anchored in an awareness that recognises our origins - that we emerge from a field of consciousness where there is no selfishness or aggression possible.
When we are born into form our Great Forgetting can easily be aggravated by early shocks and psychological wounds that can begin during gestation and in very early childhood. From such challenging beginnings defensive-aggressive patterns typical of Aries/Mars can be imprinted into the personality - overriding the origin state so much that it can be fully buried in the subconscious.
For those who have few or no Aries factors -yet still have a Mars energy - the expression can be more subtle - as in passive-aggressive mean sarcastic and verbal. The energy when more constrained can be felt as frustration irritability or silent anger with no chance of an outlet for sharing or retaliation. Women will dominate in this category.
The problem with angry thoughts conversations and online posts that are based in anger has been clarified by the Mother of Creation - this being consciousness that is shared online by Anne Tucker in the linked video from December 2025.
When we mentally fight against something it carries the same type of energy as physically fighting and this does not win or succeed at stopping whatever is opposed - in fact it adds to the field of consciousness around fighting and war that humans have contributed to for so long. The problem only grows.

The awareness shared through Anne Tucker is not new but it is extremely timely in the context of transits through Aries. The guidance to “love your enemy” came through Jesus and it is noted that Christianity still retains the widest global spread so the significance of recorded events in the Bible is carried by many into the 21st century.
Jesus said “love your enemy” in his Sermon on the Mount - adding “…and pray for those who persecute you”.
Many too however will struggle to see the logic or the reasoning but at the heart of this guidance is universal wisdom related to the plight of incarnated humans.
Anyone who does harm to another being is very wounded. Very lost. Only a very damaged soul can be a killer an abuser a predator. They have been shocked so far out of their essence that they are imprinted long-term with the pattern of psychological trauma that was experienced in the early period of life - this could have been involve imprints that were prenatal or after birth or both.
The guidance is: this dangerous and damaging person showing the most awful Aries/Mars behaviours was once a very new life in this world and suffered a psychological wounding so powerful that the imprints as a baby or young child led to a lifetime of behaviours that are driven by that imprint. It is like a software programme that has taken over the consciousness. Bullying standover tactics threats and cruel or harmful acts are in the worst case catalogue of expressions - and can manifest quickly during childhood as a sign of an antisocial disposition being in control. Eckhart Tolle’s concept of the Pain Body covers a range of problematic expressions we have available when we are lost from Source energy.
A damaged person requires deep healing as do all those who have enduring abusive patterns. At the very least we can send healing to all the children who have suffered psychological damage because in varying degrees all will have problematic Aries or Mars energy that carries through their life - some very outward and hostile. and others with Aries/Mars held within manifest as low self esteem or self harm or identity issues.
The Neptune in Aries period endures far longer than Saturn’s 2 year 2026-2028 transit. Neptune runs from 2025 to early 2039. Retrograde back to Pisces also marked the 2025-2026 transition from Pisces to Aries.
This means Saturn will show up as collective or community efforts to constrain Aries/Mars archetypes - weapons war conflict violence and even possibly in the context of sporting codes - to send a message about the need to pull back from such extremes. But more than this is needed
Outer constraints are appropriate but inner constraints on a personal level are what is really needed. As a species we have to turn away from the normalising of violence aggression and weaponry. Saturn in Aries is very much about self-management. Taking responsibility. Using self assessment to critique your own behaviour then making choices to alter behaviour patterns. Self compassion is a necessary accompaniment to the management. This is where Neptune plays a powerful role.
NEPTUNE IN ARIES
Neptune’s far longer transit will filter through into the consciousness of humanity during a period of over a decade. Any sudden mass awakenings will likely only be activated by extreme events impacting humanity - such as natural disasters - and where there is no singular “enemy” to fight. Many see climate change as a human derived cause - a collective abuse of the planet and this attribution once seen as trauma residue and subjected to healing could also inspire a less selfish/abusive lifestyle that does not cause such consequences for our planet and its multi-species inhabitants.
Compassion for the Self and for the human condition - well described by Buddhist sages as ignorance - is essential as a basis for enabling compassion for others. Without self compassion there is likely to be resistance to generating compassion for others.
For many this Neptune transit’s requirements begins with working on the Self -a confrontation with the missteps and mistakes and regretted actions over the lifetime - reviewed through the lens of compassion knowing that some degree of early trauma has been the driver of such misalignment with goodness and grace.
Self forgiveness in the context of understanding the process of disordered personality formation enables self healing. Being able to love and forgive yourself is essential for the recovery of psychological health and to then be able to disperse that energy into the human collective -especially focussing on those you have found most distasteful.
Through compassion and forgiveness inner Peace is achieved. The Neptune in Aries transit allows peace to be evoked through the Libra polarity.
CHIRON in ARIES has provided a long-lasting influential backdrop that begain in 2018 transitioning out of Pisces into Aries and permeated the Covid pandemic era - the woundedness of that was so deep for some that years after the decline of the outbreaks they still harbour aggressive vindictive thoughts against politicians. It was in some places a very ugly period while other locations managed to enjoy a collective spirit as found in periods of widespread war.
The Aries transit of Chiron transitions into Taurus in 2026 but has relevance heading into 2027 and the gains as well as unresolved residues of Chiron in Aries will filter into the Taurus period fully starting in April 2027. Chiron remains in Taurus until 2034.
The selfless will be disposed to help the strugglers.
The unresolved will retain their distance.
Chiron is the standout factor associated with woundedness and feeling defective and shares some expressions with Saturn such as disability and health problems. In Aries Chiron works through Mars so the male psyche is again struggling to find its peace and identity in this world. Reverting to the tatooed tough guy in a big truck or the motorbike riding gangsta archetype doesn’t heal the emptiness inside. Maleness bro-culture and lots of facial hair have become quite fashionable in the mid 2020s but superficial add-ons are not the solution needed.
The role of men has changed a lot from the times when women in general were 100% dependent on their man for food and housing so it is the strengthening of women that has posed significant challenges for those men who feel disempowered by the gains made by women.
This level of discomfort may be driving the addiction to abusive porn as a means of clawing back some degree of power. This Aries crisis point for humanity is likely driving the toxic masculinity expressions that are so damaging to women children and animals.
The Neptunian influence in Aries will have some ability to calm things and assist the healing needed through Chiron in Aries but those most deeply scarred could easily deteriorate with the Neptune-Chiron combination in Aries if they cannot draw a healing energy into their life.
The signs of the Cardinal Cross give insight into ongoing support in any era for problematic Aries/Mars energy.
The direct opposite sign Libra can show by a planet and its location how to drain off some of the excess Aries/Mars. Venus too can be an option.
A healthy Aries/Mars energy is able to express lunar/Cancerian traits - comfortable with domestic and family demands without feeling diminished and is comfortable with responsibilities and commitments that are the hallmark of Capricorn.
Much progress is being offered to humanity beginning in 2025 and guidance shows where to start. This is the time to change course
Healing our wounded souls is the only way humanity can thrive.

Listening to a UK* and a US** psychic - both older mumsy readers - in separate videos on 1-1-26 to see how their perceptions align with astrology potentials...it was interesting that both mentioned "a lot of anger".
Clearly an Aries potential and definitely known to rise under Chiron in Aries -but an expanded view of Saturn and Neptune in Aries can also point to anger in those so disposed. Aries is the adrenals and under Saturn and Neptune the adrenals get depleted by constant responses to stress. Anger aggression and irritability are byproducts of adrenal stress along with fatigue...but eventually severe adrenal exhaustion can express as psychological collapse or nervous system breakdown. Both psychics anticipate that societal breakdown involving economic health and social conditions erupting will cause many to become angry - that could include against government and randomly against the world strangers and anyone vulnerable within range.
Precautionary care is needed whether at home or in public if signals point to an atmosphere of mounting stress about to lash out.

My background in natural medicine gives me a basis in knowing how to restore balance when the system is exposed to ongoing stress. In the period of challenging conditions it is very important to have supplies available of a B vitamin complex or calming herbal mixes ( a selection from such options as Valerian Hops Skullcap Passionflower in a combined form are known to help ) Vitamin C. The subtlest and possibly most powerful calming product is Bach Rescue Remedy flower essence mix for humans and animals and can be taken multiple times daily.
Tarona also sees an increase in digestive disorders due to the stress as well as other severe symptoms of physical breakdown. Simple healthy foods only - not junk food alcohol drugs - can be the best option to avoid placing the body under greater stress.
If sleep is reduced due to being too wired by the Aries/adrenal stress then calming methods have to come first to promote sleep. Without good sleep deterioration is rapidly accelerated.
