Astrology: Saturn in Aries May 25, 2025

Saturn in Aries May 25, 2025

 

'All planets retrograde, not just the famous Mercury retrograde. Saturn retrogrades from July 12 until November 27, 2025.

On July 12, Saturn begins to retrograde while it’s in Aries. It’s time to review your goals, commitments, and structures. If your foundations are weak, you can address them now. It’s also possible you could receive a reality check if you’ve been moving too fast. A necessary speed bump could be a blessing in disguise.

On September 1st, Saturn swims back into Pisces for a final lap. Reflect on your spiritual growth and energetic boundaries. Are you standing up for yourself? Or do you still allow others to walk all over you? If you still struggle with saying no, consider this your make-up lesson.

Saturn stations direct on November 27 and reenters Aries on February 13, 2026, where it remains until April 12, 2028.'

'The last time Saturn was in Aries (April of 1996 through February of 1999, minus a three-month window in 1998 when Saturn paid a quick visit to Taurus):

• The United Kingdom passed the Firearms Act (which banned the private possession of all handguns)
• Australia implemented a large-scale gun buyback program
• The United States launched the FBI’s National Instant Criminal Background Check System that established boundaries around who could legally own a handgun
• The United States also passed The Domestic Violence Offender Gun Ban, which banned people convicted of domestic violence from ever owning firearms.

It is likely that, during Saturn’s next journey through Aries, we will see new, updated, and/or stricter restrictions on guns and other assault weapons.

Saturn in Aries will also bring increased regulation to startups and gig economies. Saturn’s need for structure can often be helpful; it can turn a “Wild West” of chaos into a manageable landscape that everyone can easily navigate. The “flip side” of Saturn is that it can make things more laborious and challenging (in this case, startups and gig economies may find themselves subject to new hurdles, additional documentation, and bureaucratic processes).

Lastly, Aries is the quintessential “fighting spirit.” While not the collective advocacy we see with Aquarius (or the idealism we see with Pisces), Aries is the “enough is enough!” energy that collectively moves us from despondence and the desire to numb our pain away (the less-evolved parts of Pisces) to realizing that if we don’t advocate for ourselves, no one will. Globally, many people will realize that the institutions (Saturn) they have put their faith (Pisces) in over the last two years are not going to magically save them, and that it is up to them — as individuals — to fight.'

'Saturn in Aries could be a time when we harness our inner power and achieve great things! When we use the best of what Saturn (discipline) and Aries (initiative) have to provide, we won't back down from going after we want. We'll work hard for as long as it takes, fueled by a sense of competition that makes us want to do bigger and better things.

Saturn in Aries could be a time when we become self-reliant ... a little too self-reliant. The headstrong Aries energy combined with Saturn's determination could mean that we only want to do things our way. If we learn how to balance being independent with being cooperative, we'll find that we're more successful than when we ever could have been on our own.

We may also struggle with being assertive during this transit. Stern Saturn can put a damper on the confidence that we'd normally feel as a result of Aries' energy, so sticking up for ourselves may not come so easily during this time. But this is Saturn's lesson for us, so we need to make sure we voice our desires!
