Neptune Returns to Pisces For The Final Four Months

Neptune re-enters Pisces 

October 22  2:46am PDT

 

In March, Neptune entered Aries for the first time in one hundred sixty-five years.  We have been discussing this quite a bit in previous reports.  Juicing up Neptune is that in February; Neptune and Saturn will be at zero Aries which is the beginning of the beginning.   Calculations by astrologers with super good programs have determined this connection by Saturn and Neptune at zero Aries has only happened once since the Ice Age and that was BCE 4361.  So, what were humans doing seven thousand years ago?  Besides not sitting in traffic like us the 4361 BC-ers were shifting from hunters and gatherers to living in one place. There were a lot of changes in agriculture and language was continuing to shape up.  Okay, so there is that.  What about us now?  I mean it is impossible to say exactly what we are moving into, but technology will be key and whatever comes out of this conjunction will speak to a line of demarcation, the before ______ and the after _____.  So_____  is coming. 

 

In the meantime, Neptune has final work to do in Pisces.  Think about how your life changed since 2011 when Neptune began this journey.   Neptune, the fuzziest planet in the sign Pisces (his home), the fuzziest sign.   Fuzzy is hard.  Thank god it is intuitive but still it is hard.  You can look at your astrology chart and consider Neptune’s transit through the Pisces house in your chart.   You may have also experienced Neptune’s transits to some of your personal planets which probably felt unworldly.   God knows the world has been through a lot during Neptune’s Piscean adventure.   Now we are down to the last four months.   Globally, between now and when Neptune enters Aries again (January 26), we may see news about oceans, humanity, religion, mysticism, intuition, art, deception and a lot of fuzzy.   The question is; what do we look like when we feel something that may not be observable?   And given this ingress is happening in the Libra lunar month; how do we find our balance when we might not know all the facts?   There will also be a tremendous amount of news that speaks to the tender. That will be the most important info we take to heart and what we remember when Neptune returns to warrior Aries.   What will we be fighting for then? What will our heart tell us?   

One additional note, on July 4 when Neptune stationed retrograde and started to head backwards, a major thunderstorm parked over Texas swelling the Guadalupe River which overflowed and killed many people.  It was a very sad event and many of us astrologers took a beat given we saw the connection to Neptune.  Fingers crossed we do not have another powerful weather event.  Sigh.

(28 Libra 21)

 

Welcome to Libra New Moon.   After 8 weeks of Virgo lunar cycles, it is finally time for Libra! 

 

Let’s start with this fact, Libra is the second air sign so whatever comes our way during this 29-day lunar month will be inputted in our brains and processed.  I point this out because Libra which is ruled by Venus is drawn to love, beauty, peace, things that are charming, aesthetically appealing and leans into diplomacy.   With all that in mind, one might think Libra is driven by the heart.   Not quite.   Libra is very much about the brain.   Have you ever had to watch a Libra decide something?  Lord help us all.  It can take days, months even years before a Libra makes that final decision and like their fellow air brethren Gemini, they will sometimes take back that ‘final’ decision.  Libra’s glyph is the scales of balance, and it weighs everything out which means the brain is always weighing, pondering all the sides.    ---- continue to link for my full article and eight phases report.

October 13 - 21 Astrology Landscape

 

We’re in the last week of the second Virgo lunar month.   When this week ends and we move into Libra new moon we’ll have completed eight weeks of working on details.  Virgo knows that nothing can happen if we don’t focus on it.   No doubt details found us during the last two months.   Now we are in the final seven days of the Virgo cycle.   

 

Your To-Do list is still vital during the last quarter phase.   Then when we hit Balsamic on the 17^th, release the list.   We also release our need to be critical.    When we let go, we are preparing the soil for the new which rolls in October 21 on the Libra new moon.   

 

Last Quarter Moon Phase

October 13, 2025

11:12 am PDT  

   

 

Last Quarter moon:  Now we do the final adjustments to the seeds we planted on new. The final call, the final letters to send, we follow all the trails that came up that still make sense.  And we let the other parts lay fallow. It is a time of action but wise action.  It is a time for living “The serenity prayer” 

 

God, grant me the Serenity
to accept the things
I cannot change Courage to change the
things I can, and the
Wisdom to know the difference.

 

 

 

Focus on:

What final actions can you take based on the seeds that you planted on New Moon.   How do you need to adapt those plans?   How do those goals and plans impact your family?   What actions need to be taken on behalf of your emotions?   What are your feelings telling you?  

 

Planetary Notes: 

 

10/13: Venus enters Libra.   Five weeks of trying to find nice.  

10/13: Venus oppose Neptune (00 Aries 12) Love feels weird and disconnected from reality.  Money is wonky.  Values can’t find gravity.  

10/13:  Pluto station Direct (1 Aquarius 22)  (See separate)

10/14: Venus trine Uranus 00 Aries 52.  Joy and values get out of the blue jolt of creative opportunity.   Celebrate the weird and open the creativity.  

10/14: Venus Trine Pluto (1 Aquarius 22) Transformation in relationships.  Where there was stuck, now there is flow.   Art and creativity flourish and bring renewal. 

10/16: Sun square Jupiter (24 Cancer 06).  Social obligations feel in conflict with family.   Creature comforts must be put aside to deal with matters of society.    Put on your bra and show up.  

10/17: Sun oppose Chiron (24Aries 51).   How can you tap your authentic self and still be in relationship with _____ ?  (Fill in the blank)

Balsamic Moon Phase

Balsamic:   We let go.  By releasing we can prepare for the new.  

 

 

Focus on:  How are you releasing your anxiety?  How are you releasing any weird energy around your calendar?   How are you releasing your ‘to-do’ list?   

 

Planetary Notes:

 

10/18: Mars trine North Node.  Actions that stoke humanitarianism.  Actions and intuition are in synch even if they seem unworldly.      

10/19: Mercury trine North Node (17 Pisces 58) Deep and penetrating thoughts that seem channeled from an outside source permeate the day.  

10/19: Mercury conjunct Mars (19 Scorpio).  Thinking and actions are in synch.   How does it feel to walk your talk? 

10/21: Mercury enters shadow (20 Scorpio 42) –note this date.  In a few weeks Mercury will retrograde and go all the way back to where it is today on October 21.

Pluto Direct - October 13, 2025

We have got a great buddy show going on with Pluto and Uranus.   These two characters started talking to each other in August and September.   Peanut butter meet chocolate.  Cell phone meet Apple.  Snoop Dog meet Martha Stewart.    Last month, Uranus and Pluto could see something in each other that might make sense to do together and could be fun.   But then Uranus turned retrograde to take care of some last-minute business in Taurus.  He said, “I’ll be back, Pluto”.   And Pluto who was already retrograde responded, “Uranus, I will be ready to talk strategy with you next year.”     

 

Since then, the buddies have been doing their own thing and will get as far as six degrees from one another when Uranus stations direct at 27 Taurus in February.   Six degrees is NOT that far so there may be some telepathy tapes going on between Uranus and Pluto from now until then.   On October 13, Pluto slows down for its station direct and there could be some announcements or news that might be part and parcel of the great plans Uranus and Pluto have in store for us next summer. 

 

For people who have planets at 1 – 5 degrees of Gemini, Libra and Aquarius this could be the needed wind for your sails.    You may be picking up a fresh breeze and feeling inspired.   For those people who have planets at 1-5 degrees of Taurus, Leo, Scorpio and Aquarius, you are still in the business of letting go and transforming.   Letting go is critical to your evolution.  Given Pluto is in Aquarius, much of this letting go is about releasing stuck thoughts.    If you are unclear, ask a friend (Aquarius) they will tell you where your thinking is blocked.  And since we are still in the second Virgo lunar month and we know how Virgo loves constructive criticism, you could get some important info that could be helpful. 

 

Astrology for October 6-12

The week begins with a punchy full moon.    The full moon is free from vexing and opportunistic aspects.    It just is a full moon that is elegant in letting the Sun in Libra and the Moon in Aries ponder the meaning and power of relating while deepening authenticity.    If there has been any ‘set-it-and-forget-it’ components to our way of relating and relationships well, this is the moon to freshen up our style or inform our partner(s) that it’s time for a new way to jam.   

 

While the full moon is busy ‘being’ the next day on the 7^th, Mercury in Scorpio gets into its first tussle with Pluto in Aquarius.   Hurricane force winds will blow through our conversations.   Sharp, tense and perhaps a wee bit emotional comments could be pronounced.   Snappy answers to every question could get tiring.  Globally there may be some incident of a power play that gets all of us talking. 

 

On the 8^th, nerves are calmed (a bit) by Venus and Jupiter and we seek practicality and nurturing.    On the 11^th we move into Disseminating Phase where a Taurus theme of grounding, moving slower and taking a beat as we share our knowledge or perhaps seek counsel.   Also on the 11^th, Venus and Saturn are in opposition and our love, our beauty our creativity could all feel ‘not enough’.  Sure.  Got it.   Figure out some stuff you can fix and whatever can’t just take that beat and maybe turn to spirit for a heavy assist.   Prayers may be helpful.  

 

 

Full Moon – Aries 

October 6, 2025

(14 Aries 08) 

 

 

See separate Post

 

 

 

Planetary Notes:  

 

10/7: Mercury square Pluto (1 Aquarius 22) Intense thinking.  Penetrating insights that can be overwhelming.   No one is showing their hand.  Power is on everyone’s mind.  

10/8: Venus sextile Jupiter (23 Cancer 18).   Joy gets expanded.  Sweet and tender are valuable.   A quiet moment with the right person lifts the mood and the heart.   

 

 

Disseminating

October 10, 2025

1:56am PDT

   

 

    

Disseminating: Reflect on what has transpired this lunar month.  What have you learned?   How can you share some of your knowledge?  What past experiences are you sharing?  Are you in the need to teach?  Or is it find a teacher?   Maybe we find a rabbi or a minister or therapist who gives us more insight.   

 

 

Focus on:   How are you sharing the power of sitting with something?   How are you sharing inner calm?   How are you sharing patience?   How are you sharing the power of practicality?  How are you sharing values?   

 

 

 

Planetary Notes:

 

10/11: Venus oppose Saturn (26 Pisces 59).   Values feel slapped around.  Love feels cold.  Money feels off.   No beauty can be found.   If you can hide in your house go for it.  If you can’t, try to not take anything personal and instead get lost in great music.  

 

 

 

Aries Full Moon - Harvest Moon - Supermoon - October 6, 2025

 

Full Moon

Harvest Moon 

October 6, 2025

8:47pm PDT 

14 Aries 08

 

Let’s get technical.    This year the Aries Full Moon and Harvest moon is also the first of three supermoons.   A supermoon occurs when the orbit of the moon is closest to the Earth and it is a full moon.    On the 7th the moon will be closest to earth and it will look super large.  Get your camera ready for a cool shot because Aries full moon is getting our attention.     

 

There is a lot about this full moon that feels liberated from the Aries full moons over the last couple of years.  First, it is not an eclipse.  And to that I say, ‘hallelujah’.     Aries is free from the shadow.  Yay.  

 

Second the moon and the sun at the exact time of the new moon are not in any major aspects with any outer or inner planets.    This gives the full moon some juice to do what it is supposed to do.  The moon talks to the sun, and the sun talks to the moon.    The discussion is about relating.   The need for personal within relationship is pronounced.   “Hey, I need this.”   Or a conversation with someone, “When you do/say/act/respond to ____ it makes me react like _____”  Fill in the blanks.    And at the same time any partnership we are in could have that person saying the same thing back to us.   How we find independence and authenticity within relationships is the meta. 

 

Note—when I use the word partnership, yes, for sure that can be our significant other, but it is NOT limited to that person.  It is about the act of relationship-ing.   You are in relationship with a lot of people.   Maybe you are not married or have no significant other, but you work with someone, you volunteer with someone, you meet with others, and you have this moment in your life where you are relating.   That moment and those people and those interactions are like atoms bumping into each other.    We get something from that relating energy.  

 

At the Aries full moon we show up, and we act with authenticity, then others respond, and we are impacted and so on and so on.  Which then encourages new growth.  This is Aries.   Libra, the air sign, feeds Aries fire.   Fire cannot exist without air.    

 

This full moon should feel like a lot of air and movement and adjusting and relating.  There is a freshness.  In fact, if there was ever three days that feel like the renewal of spring while in the season of  fall, it would be this full moon.   For those people who live south of the equator this full moon will be double spring-ish for you.  

 

So, the full moon itself seems liberated.   However, there is a side piece of business that has the potential of being loud and that involves Mercury.   Earlier in the day of the 6^th, Mercury leaves Libra and enters Scorpio.    Thinking and communication intensifies when Mercury is in Scorpio.     Then on the 7^th early in the morning Mercury squares Pluto.   

 

As I mentioned in my Virgo New Moon Eclipse report because Saturn, Neptune, Uranus and Pluto are at early degrees of fresh signs (Zero to Two degrees) whenever the inner planets; Mercury, Venus and Mars make aspects with the outer planets they are activating a whole new energy.    For example, on September 22 Mars entered Scorpio and then on the 24^th it squared Pluto.   Based on the eclipse that was near this aspect I mentioned (and I am not the only astrologer to suggest it) that there was a possible tie back to the Hammas/Israel/Gaza conflict.   No surprise when on the 22^nd, France acknowledged the state of Palestine (along with other countries) at the time of Mars square Pluto.  The tie in was there.     

 

Now it is Mercury’s turn to make a move into Scorpio and then have a brand new, never experienced before (in modern era) Mercury Scorpio square with Pluto in Aquarius.   This is not necessarily about Gaza Israel, it will probably be some other newsmaker event.    

 

As we know, Mercury in Scorpio is focused on power.   It also knows where the weakest link is in any chain.   Pluto in Aquarius has its focus on the masses.   Pluto in Aquarius bristles at kings, queens and royalty in general.    No accident that the French Revolution took place during Pluto in Aquarius.   However, in the 21^st century the world looks different than the 18^th century.    More countries have democracies than are royalty ruled.   Instead, now titans of industry are our newer forms of royalty.   Will they be in the mix?   Mercury in Scorpio square Pluto in Aquarius especially juiced up by the full moon in Aries which at the time of this aspect will be in square to Jupiter bringing additional gravity.   If we find ourselves having a hard time feeling grounded look no further than this astro landscape.   Also, a note to those titans in industry: Jupiter in Cancer is looking at our homes, and we are a bit extra thin skinned if anyone is messing with our family.    If any information is uncovered that speaks to crime, sex, corruption, co-mingled funds, taxes, adultery (Scorpio) it could undermine a trust for a whole lot of people (Aquarius) and the response may be anger (Aries).   

 

If there are any bruises by Mercury Pluto on the 7^th, we will welcome the Venus sextile Jupiter on the 8^th that reminds us to find our cozy corner and people and help soothe our psyches and moods.     By the time we get to Disseminating phase on October 10^th we will be ready to share some of our experiences with others.   

 

Breathe.  Be authentic.  Be.   

Chris Brennan's Auspicious Day --- October 4, 5pm

Screen grab of Chris Brennan's Auspicious Date 

I enjoy Chris Brennan's Astrology Podcast.   Always great guests and in depth analysis of the astrology that they present.    I try to watch their monthly reports every month.    Chris offers an auspcious date ever month.  These dates are also called electional dates.   They have nothing to do with polictics.  The use of the word 'electional' means as in electing to do something.    The astrology on the date that Chris highlights also includes a time.    This is the optimal date to activate or support the astrology of the chart.   

In the month of October we will have a tense, mouthy period due to Mercury and Pluto getting into and it goes longer than normal because Mercury will retrograde in November and return back to Scorpio.    There are some other aspects that we have already discussed in my report  which also limit some of our good days.   Having said that, Chris found a good date.  

October 4, 2025 @ 5pm your local time.    You can watch Chris' interpration about that date at that time and how it will be beneficial.  

The chart for that date supports, children, creative, play, having fun, finding joy, starting something that is long, long on creativity.    Maybe make a plan to bring more joy in your life and you ask your most fun friend and say, "Hey can we have coffee?  Or a drink?"  Or you and your beloved go on some kind of adventure.  Is it a fun movie?  Is it a tour of museum you always wanted to visit?  How about a cool art exhibit?  Or do you have a project you are working on, how about doing something that supports your project at that time.   

Anyway, go listen to Chris and see how you can make the most of it.
