Neptune in Aries, The Solar Eclipse & Personal Awakening


A powerful shift is underway. Neptune moves into Aries April 1st, and a Solar Eclipse ignites a new cycle on March 29, 2025. This is a time of personal spiritual awakening, bold action, and fiery transformation.

For the past thirteen years, Neptune in Pisces encouraged collective spirituality and dissolving boundaries. Now, as it enters Aries, the focus shifts to individuality, courage, and forging your own spiritual path. This New Moon Solar Eclipse amplifies this, burning away what no longer serves and calling you to step into leadership and trust your instincts.

I explore these themes in a 35-minute audio, guiding you through what this transition means for your personal journey. Tune in to deepen your understanding and align with this cosmic energy.

Aries Solar Eclipse Ritual - A Call to Personal Awakening

This Solar Eclipse in Aries is a portal for fiery rebirth, a time to burn away illusion and step boldly into your spiritual path. Aries energy is raw, instinctual, and courageous, but with Neptune now in Aries, this eclipse isn’t just about action; it’s about awakening to your true essence and aligning with your soul’s highest calling.

This eclipse falls in Uttara Bhadrapada, a lunar mansion associated with deep spiritual transformation, inner purification, and dissolving false identities. This is about getting to the heart of your desires shedding distractions and illusions so that what remains is only the truth. In this ritual, you will tune in, listen deeply, and work with fire to awaken your next steps.

You Will Need:

  • A candle (red, orange, or white)

  • A fireproof bowl or small cauldron

  • A piece of paper & pen

  • An oracle deck

  • Matches or a lighter

  • A small dish of salt or a grounding object (such as a crystal or stone)

1. Create Sacred Space

Find a quiet space where you won’t be disturbed. Light your candle and take a deep breath. Let yourself fully arrive in this moment. Aries energy is fast and impulsive, but this is a time to pause and listen first.

Say aloud or silently:
"I open myself to the wisdom of this eclipse. I listen deeply to the wisdom within and the truth that wants to emerge."

2. Oracle Spread: Tuning Into What Matters

Shuffle your oracle deck and pull three cards, placing them in a row. This spread will help you connect with the deeper themes of this eclipse before setting your intentions.

  1. What is being activated within me? (What fire is rising in my soul?)

  2. What must be released? (What is burning away in this eclipse?)

  3. What action must I take next? (How can I move forward with courage?)

Sit with your cards. Really listen. Aries wants to rush forward, but the fire within you knows the way. Write down any insights that arise.

3. Writing & Burning Intentions

Now that you are clear on what is present for you, take your paper and write down three bold intentions for this next cycle. These should feel alive, direct, and empowering. Aries is about action, what are you ready to claim?

Then, on the same paper, write down one thing you are releasing whether it’s a fear, old pattern, or limitation that no longer serves your evolution.

Hold the paper in your hands and read your words aloud, feeling them as truth. When you are ready, carefully burn the paper in your fireproof bowl, watching the flames transmute your words into energy.

As the paper burns, say:
"I surrender the old and step into the fire of transformation. May my intentions ignite with the power of Aries, leading me forward with strength and purpose."

4. Sealing the Ritual

Sprinkle a pinch of salt in your palm and press it into your skin, grounding yourself in the present moment. If you used a grounding object, hold it and take a deep breath, feeling rooted and steady.

Blow out the candle with gratitude, knowing that the fire of Aries continues to burn within you. Trust that your intentions have been set in motion.
