Astro-life: a peek into 2025

I'm very thankful that, besides the already posted Perihelion of Earth, January as well as February are calm in respect to "new Beginnings" - the whole year seems a little "calmer" in this way than last year, YET, there are some "big things" happening over the course of the year.

And as I say so often, things aren't "separate events" but one thing hands into another and beautiful arcs are built.

When we allow ourselves to "flow" with the energies around and to do "our part" (translated into our very own individual lives), then we follow that "same arc"...

We brought some of those last conjunctions of 2024 into 2025, in a "root growing", deepening state.

I personally feel especially the Ceres - Chariklo conjunction still in my Being...

Besides, the placements of the planetary bodies do have of course an impact on us all - especially when one of them "transits" over an either natal placement or a progressed placement (calculated by adding one day per life year to the birthday - this means, the slow moving planet are hardly affected but the faster ones quite a bit when getting older).

In addition the angles of the slow moving planets in transit to the natal placement can be felt as well in either a challenging or more harmonious way, which can in fact also be a challenge to "allow" those more harmonious ways...

I got some "hints" about this year - it got to do with "observing" - we can do that from various "standpoints" in this sense. In Astrology we have, for example the heliocentric view in itself, but there's also a Centaur that can be perceived as a "Seer" just to name 2 of the possibilities...

One can observe to fulfill a certain task - may that now be to study a handicraft or to be warned about something or to use information lets say on the stock market or for advertisement etc. massive amount of possibilities....

Yet, there's also the way of kind of "neutral" observation, just out of curiosity without having an own "task" behind it, so there's an openness needed because maybe things turn out to be totally different than expected, or one could just simply not imagine this way etc.

Please, what I say here isn't meant about one to be better than the other but I find it "important" to know, which one is applied at a given moment...

I came to the conclusion, that this year, this "observing" theme could come in very "handy". Especially when there are seemingly difficult or tumultuous situations playing on, because it keeps us then open and same time "responsive" without being too "fast"...

There's also a "trust" component in this, that when there's something happening that we personally need to "attend to", we will know on that level...

Something about "timing" though - we traditionally think "fast" is when we respond without delay on the "human standard"... yet, I made the paradox experience, that sometimes we can go within and "outside" the time stands still and so we had a felt long minute or two within while to the outside it seems we respond right away... so, keep that in mind when observing others - it's "feelable" this difference... Even if the "time doesn't stand still", don't be shy to take that moment...

Find below a little overview of the happenings with a short "write up" just as it did "struck" me or "inspire" me....

On some of the happenings I will write more intensely throughout the year - of course...

month by month

There's not much going on in January - except for Vesta conjoining Makemake while she's approaching her most northern point of orbit. Furthermore, there will be the exact first square of the Jupiter - Saturn cycle being exact towards the end of the month.

February is even "calmer" conjunctionwise with "only" Venus and Mars conjoining in sidereal Cancer just a little passed Varuna, therefore they individually will conjoin Varuna a bit before...

I think, because we have Vesta at prominent "height" of her orbit, there's this theme of inner fire or passion that does fit the themes of "root growing" forward especially within the themes of nourishment of the potentials, the within, sacred etc. - I mean, how could we serve ourselves and others better than by living what we love or "infusing" love into that we may think we "have to do" for whatever reason as a step towards "xyz"...

The Venus-Mars conjunction does for sure "add" to that, in a "programming" way - ha, maybe Mars (masculine) will be allowed to follow Venus (feminine) and the other "feminine" energies a bit more - couldn't hurt to bring a bit more beauty, love and enjoinment...

In March Jupiter will reach the last degree of sidereal Taurus and with that his exact first 60 degrees within his cycle with Eris and that while Chiron is in approaching orb of his conjunction with Eris in later 2025 - so the Chiron and Eris theme is with us all year long...

The next day, there will be the March Equinox and end of the month, a Vesta-Haumea conjunction

There"s a lot of misconception about Eris (one of the reasons why I wrote the "pdf book" about her - available on my shop page) and I think there will be a lot of "revelations", insights and new ways within the theme's of health, well-being, repetitions and their correlations with evolutionary tasks and mastery... throughout the year and beyond, we'll see more themes coming up related to "placebo and nocebo" effects, how to use frequency, wisdom teachings etc. ...

The Vesta-Haumea conjunction may contribute a lot in the question of "passion", how to use our "inner fire" in harmony with the "higher self", how to be guided by "ourselves"...

End of April and May will be very much under the influence of Haumea, Pluto and Pallas.

Haumea will be in exact square with Pluto while she's at her most northern part of orbit and Pallas is conjoining Pluto...

Starting in April, we have for quite a while 3 cusps involved - Saturn very late sidereal Aquarius, Eris very late sidereal Pisces and Uranus very early sidereal Taurus. So, there are "transitions" in progress - quite impressive...

I think this will be very dynamic. You see, we're also in the last quarter of the Pluto-Eris cycle and Haumea has passed her opposition with Eris, so there are many intense and "out of the normal" themes that we're now aware of and have to deal with in one way or another. Pallas adds the energy of "constructive creativity" and Haumea is about blood lines, fertility and guidance in the "birthing" process (one can also think in the realms of paradigm shifts). The longer we're in this energy, and allow themes to surface, the clearer the answers can become and also a kind of "contamination" can take place - out of the box thinking, acting and being may become more common... yet, note, it's "old" energy in the sense of wisdom and knowingness that is "needed" here as well, the ability to "include" and discern in a "masterful" way...

In early May, so same timeframe - Hygiea conjoins Uranus in very early sidereal Taurus.

Adding the component of sudden changes, future orientation and "purity" and in this sense maintaining a certain type of being and not to be "distracted" too much by whatever appears to be "unwanted"...

By the end of May Hygiea will have moved on to her conjunction with Sedna still in earlier sidereal Taurus.

On 10th of June Saturn will reach his exact 330 degrees into the cycle with Eris - last 30 degrees to go - very "balsamic" energy.

On 13th of June Jupiter will form his exact 150 degrees into his cycle with Pluto, Jupiter in this time is also in longitudal conjunction with Asbolus far in the north (constellation Auriga, the charioteer) and they're both aligned with the "Orion's torch"...

On 19th of June Ceres conjoins Nessus in later sidereal Aquarius, yet, they also conjoin in latitude and that in the northern part of the constellation Sculptor.

During the June Solstice Mercury conjoins Mars in sidereal Virgo.

On 28th of June Vesta conjoins Juno for conjunction near the star Graffias of Scorpio - conjunctions between the main belt Asteroids are much rarer than one would think - so, in this sense these Two add some "specialty" here...

Saturn is here now same time in his last few degrees from Neptune and so there's an "interplay" taking place - one that is based on "clarity" and "openness" towards a total new understanding of reality (within the "container" of the very own constructs)...

I find it interesting that the Mercury-Mars conjunction takes place the same time around and reminding us of their "interplay" between "thought and action" as well as reaction and response...

As Asbolus is a "seer", one that observes without judgment but discernment in the constellation of possible "hastyness or overboarding etc." together with Jupiter in a "improving" state of cycle with the rebirthing Pluto, there might come up a kind of urge combined with "impatience" for processes of evolutionary changes... yet, if we can "read the signs" (or synchronicities) we can be sure to be guided securely even through seemingly turbulent times...

The inner and the outer - the home and the state or country - the spiritual sides of ourselves and the Human psychology etc. ... I think, there might be a "new era" coming up, one that is more "inclusive" or at least, an awareness of the interrelationship.

6th of July 2025 Earth will reach her Aphelion in sidereal Sagittarius, same time Mars is conjoining Makemake in sidereal Virgo, and Mercury is approaching his southnode.

Later in July - 26th to be exact - we'll experience Ceres to conjoin Saturn in very early sidereal Pisces.

It's like "holding the breath" (maybe in surprise) - the conjunctions and angles we had over the last months are still "active" while already in the "new, or next state" and those to come are already so much in the balsamic phase that it's kind of "feelable" even though not "catchable" yet.

Just like the Vesta-Juno cycle - just started anew but maybe not in this "clear view" of manifestation in the form one maybe personally would wish for, yet, subtle themes and changes already occur...

What IS the "feminine power"?? We talk for years about it but most women in "high rank positions" act very similar to men - so, it's not the "gender" or their "roles" but something else that matters and is inherent within all genders... To reduce it to "fertility and mothering, caring" themes would not do it justice I think...

So, we may define that anew and with that, a new era might be born to grow into many areas of life...

3rd of August marks one of the dates when Neptune reaches his exact alignment of longitude with the Galactic South Pole - yes, it's a "calculated point" and therefore a little

differences of position according the way it's calculated. Consider this alignment to start a little before and to last a little longer... besides the fact that Neptune doesn't move along the zodiac as fast as others.

On 8th of August Jupiter forms his 72 degrees angle with Eris

On 16th of August Ceres conjoins Neptune in longitude while she still traverses south of the ecliptic and Neptune in the constellation Sculptor, yet now in earlier sidereal Pisces (around the "mysterious" 5 degrees mark)...

I think soon I will not call this the "mysterious" 5 degrees mark anymore, because we'll get more clarity about things, just as part of the whole teamwork in the heavens, the Vesta-Juno theme and all before help... of course, Ceres will help us here, when we "nourish" a new perspective, a new "identification" and even further...

When we get "clarity" and an inner "knowing" about things, there just falls everything else away - there's no victimhood, no "wrong", no savior, no doubt, no injustice etc. - how would you imagine the world to be from such a state of being??

What would happen, if we start to share such "stories" and "topics" while sitting with friends, colleagues and family instead of the latest "horror stories" we may have heard in the News etc. - what if we start to focus on that which we would "prefer" without suppressing that which might be or that which may scare us...

On 12th of September 2025 Pallas conjoins Chariklo in longitude in later sidereal Aquarius with Chariklo in the constellation Aquarius and Pallas north of that in the constellation Equuleus (the fole).

The Equinox takes place on 23rd of September while Mars is at his southnode.

September may become more "discerning" - because we may have "felt" something or "experienced" something special or important to ourselves and that might have changed our view / world...

There's an aspect of the "divine feminine" that's called "receiving" - it's traditionally depicted in some kind of "feminine deities of fertility, harvest etc.".

We may "harvest" something in our lives or experiences and we may "trace it back" - especially when it comes to some responses in form of "solutions" - we may see, more clearly what could maybe work better in a world that is different to the one 100 years ago or even 5 years ago.

Kind of like in the phrase "imagine there is war and nobody attends it"...

Even though we may think, there's no choice within the physical world as it is, we though have one in what we "nourish as possible", we might be able to perceive "something else" that makes all the difference and shifts us into... the foul is "young" energy, it's rejuvenation or maybe "renewable" as the term used for other forms of energy... at least there's this attribute of "openness" to something different when it comes to the theme of "problem solving" in general...

In early October 2025 the Saturn-Uranus cycle reaches the 300 degrees mark or in other words the last 60 degrees before their next conjunction, less than an hour before this, Mercury and Mars conjoin each other just a little passed both their Southnodes, opposing Uranus in a separating way and therefore, Mercury and Mars in a separating trine to Saturn. Also same time of the Saturn-Uranus 300 degrees mark, the Earth/Moon system is in approaching conjunction with Ceres and both in approaching opposition to Makemake.

Quite a chart, I know...

On 18th of October 2025 Vesta conjoins Ixion at 11 degrees sidereal Sagittarius with Vesta a little north of the ecliptic and Ixion south but both in the constellation Sagittarius.

On 30th of October Vesta makes it over to Pholus and Quaoar and conjoins them in longitude in the middle of sidereal Sagittarius with Pholus and Quaoar north of the ecliptic in an area filled with deep space objects and the constellation Scutum. Vesta is here approaching her Southnode - exact on 10th of November.

In an evolutionary perspective there's never an end - it always goes on and on... at times, there might be something like a "reset", where all seems to "crumble" only to come back even "better" or better said "different"... every step that mankind did, was emerging from a "need" or the depletion of possibility of the previous step or "idea".

At first, such exists in the realm of ideas, of phantasy and some may call it fiction - however we "title" it, it's where something exists first, as a possibility at least of imagination...

Depending on the individual belief systems, anchor points etc. a specific idea in an area might be more acceptable for one and kind of "impossible" for another - such we saw not so long ago when we had the change of common acceptance to the idea of a round Earth. Or when we went through the technical revolutions changing everything in the manifested world... for some this was easier, for others it was harder...

The new paradigm shift goes beyond any of those - so, there's an even "wider" gap as how one integrates, imagines and develops... as it goes with simply every single aspect of physical life, there might be aspects in a personal life easier to deal with the idea and in others less - yet, if there is just only One aspect in life that makes us experience the shift, then this can be the one leading the personal "rebirth"....

An important chart and again we have Mercury and Mars involved - again the emphasis on their important role together. In September 2024 they met at their northnode, now just a little passed their southnode, which means there's a harvesting and seeding aspect to their conjunction (discernment and future oriented)... it also means, the "readiness" of acceptance and to let go for something that is "done" (when the apple has fallen off the tree you can't put it back up as that particular apple).

Finally there - on 21st of November 2025 Chiron conjoins Eris now exact at 29 degrees 49 minutes and 31 seconds sidereal Pisces. Obviously both also about to change into sidereal Aries while still both in the constellation Pisces... Something that Eris doesn't experience often, to be in one of the zodiac constellations and for Chiron it's an area where he starts to come out of his loop, still slow yet "accelerating"...

On the same day, Earth conjoins Uranus at the interesting numerological longitude of 4 degrees 4 minutes and 40 seconds sidereal Taurus near Sedna at 5 degrees 55 minutes sidereal Taurus...

Even though they play physically in different "realms" they still play important roles together - both their potentials depend though on our belief systems, on how we perceive reality etc.

Perception is important but it's also just another "layer" of the complex system.

Between Chiron and Eris, there are the realms of Neptune and Pluto (plus all those dwarf planets in the Kuiper belt)....

Many of you know, that I dislike the word "healing" as it implies something to be wrong on the physical level, when in fact, we can't "heal" something on that level - there's always something else that gets it's attention through a feeling of unwell or illness... - ohhh, I know, I have been there, suffering for decades sometimes a little more and sometimes a little less - so, I do not talk about the experience itself but what it represents on another level than the suffering... Once we "sacrifice" false beliefs, some kind of "victim consciousness" and alike, then the "realms beyond" start to become more obvious and a "shift" takes place...

When you know where you are and take other possibilities into consideration and start observing other things suddenly "go by themselves"... it's like "Grand Trine energy" - self fulfilling....

Now imagine, how a life without major health issues would feel like, no more worries about being ill, overweight, not fit enough, under cognitive decline etc., etc. ....

Before we're there though - each time, when there's something coming up health wise, there's something else that is out of alignment and tells a story - can we perceive the story and then step away from it?? Can we "sacrifice" that part of our past???

This whole theme may play into "multidimensionality", frequency, radiation, timelines or the concept of time etc. - so, wherever one stands in the own development or evolution, the themes will present themselves accordingly...

Another "finally" - on 12th of December 2025 Saturn conjoins Neptune in earlier sidereal Pisces, still above and aligned with the South Galactic Pole. They're both south of the ecliptic and both still in descending mode...

On 22nd of December or in other words right after the Solstice, Ceres conjoins Eris within the last 10 minutes of sidereal Pisces... and roughly 36 hours later Ceres conjoins Chiron already within the first 10 minutes of sidereal Aries. Kind of an emphasis here onto that "change or shift"...

Here we have 2 opposites meet - from our "giant planets", Neptune is the densest one and Saturn the least dense. Density isn't anything "bad" it's just the dispersion of matter - while there is more within a cubic centimeter on Neptune, there's less on Saturn...

These are though "measurements" - and what we take as "standard" is just a choice within countless possibilities... one thing is clear though - in order to measure it, we need a "container", a "vessel" in this sense just like a glass we fill with water, coffee, juice or whatever and the more we put into such a container, the denser it becomes....

Saturn is sometimes called the "timelord" - if you now apply the above principle of measurement, then "time" is probably the one thing we can't really store, it's there in a flow or stacked or however, what is the "specific weight of time", does it has any weight??

Well - their conjunction will call in a lot of "strange thoughts", new concepts on a different basis than before.... may that now be "time" or otherwise....

Yet, in due time, I'll write probably a lot about this conjunction, trusting that should things become to dense, I might just expand the volume or capacity of the glass / container ;-)

Interesting to note - 1st of January 2026

We'll start THAT new Year with the exact last 60 degrees angle between Neptune and Sedna. Kind of "matching"....

Much Love to you All,

Fran
