The Sun in Pisces 2025

 


The Sun in Pisces 

The Lesson 

To embrace our intuition, compassion, and creativity, while also being mindful of potential illusions and the need for grounding.

The Affirmation 

I embrace my intuition and creativity, allowing my Piscean sun to illuminate my dreams and connect me to the boundless flow of compassion.

Interpretation 

When the sun enters the astrological sign of Pisces, it's a time for reflection and emotional cleansing. People tend to become more introspective and withdrawn, focusing on their inner feelings and past hurts. They may be more sensitive and intuitive, with vivid dreams and a greater sense of empathy.

Aspects 

Neptune conjunct the North Node in Pisces opposite a conjunction of the South Node and the MC in Virgo. 

This astrological event suggests a significant opportunity for spiritual and creative growth. It's a time to blend imagination with practical skills. With Neptune and the North Node together in Pisces, people are encouraged to trust their intuition, be more compassionate, and explore their artistic side. The opposing South Node in Virgo indicates a need to release perfectionism, harsh self-judgment, and over-reliance on logic. Because this opposition is also connected to one's public image and career, these themes could manifest in professional life.  People might experience a career change or find a more creative and spiritually fulfilling job. It's a favorable period for having big dreams, but it's important to remember to take practical steps to realize them and use talents to benefit others.

Mercury in Pisces

Interpretation 

When Mercury is in Pisces, people may experience a conflict between their thoughts and emotions. This can lead to increased intuition, empathy, and creativity.

Full Moon in Leo 2025

 


Full Moon in Leo 

The Lesson 

To find a middle ground between being true to yourself and considering how your actions affect others, so you can share your talents and make a positive impact on the world.

The Affirmation 

I accept who I truly am and bravely share my talents and personality while also being mindful of how my actions affect everyone around me.

Interpretation 

A full moon in Leo can make people feel more confident, creative, and outgoing. They might enjoy socializing and doing things that make them happy. However, they might also be a bit self-centered and overlook the needs of others. This is a good time to work on being less vain, arrogant, and selfish.

Aspects 

When the Sun and Mercury (representing our thinking and communication) meet up in Aquarius (associated with innovation and forward-thinking) and then clash with Uranus in Taurus (related to stability and material things), it can create some friction. We might feel a strong urge to express ourselves in new and different ways, and have exciting, original ideas. However, we might also feel resistant to change, especially when it comes to things that make us feel secure, like our finances or routines. This can lead to surprising insights or unexpected events that shake things up. It's a time when we could make some real progress, but we might also experience some disruptions. The key is to find a middle ground between trying new things and holding onto what feels safe and comfortable.

Magical Correspondences 

  • Herbs: Sunflower, Bay Leaf, Rosemary
  • Essential Oils: Orange, Bergamot, Frankincense
  • Crystals: Carnelian, Sunstone, Citrine

Venus in Aries 2025

 


Venus in Aries 

I love confidently

The Lesson 

Embrace your independence and pursue what you desire with courage and passion, while also learning to balance assertiveness with consideration for others.

The Affirmation 

I am confident and courageous in expressing my desires, and I attract love and abundance by being true to myself.

Interpretation 

When Venus is in Aries, people tend to feel more passionate and driven. They're more confident and excited, and they're more likely to pursue their desires – whether it's a romantic partner or a personal ambition. They might be more willing to take risks, act spontaneously, and assert themselves. This is a good time to chase dreams like starting a relationship, working on a creative project, or looking for a new job.  However, Aries can also make people impulsive, leading to hasty decisions. While it's good to follow your instincts, it's also wise to think things through. Taking a moment to consider your actions can help avoid mistakes and ensure you're pursuing your passions in a smart way. Basically, it's about balancing courage with careful thought, so you can go after what you want without doing anything you'll regret.

Aspects 

When Venus (love and values) travels through Aries and joins with Neptune (dreams and spirituality) and the North Node (destiny) in Pisces, it can make us feel very idealistic and spiritually driven in our relationships.  We might deeply crave a soulmate connection or be drawn to someone who seems to perfectly match our spiritual beliefs.  However, because Neptune can blur reality, we might not see things as they truly are, leading to potential disappointment.  The North Node in Pisces suggests we grow by being more compassionate and loving unconditionally, but also by learning to tell the difference between our fantasies and what's real. This time could bring spiritual awakenings and creative inspiration, but it's crucial to stay grounded and avoid getting lost in illusions or deceiving ourselves.
