Holm Astrology has been creating "Astrology" and "Food For Thought" posts for over 10 years.  Wix has taken over the Vista Print websites and as a result of the migration of our information, a large portion of our blog posts are currently lost. 

 

We realize our Astrology posts are vital to our students.

We apologize for the inconvenience but it is worth the jump over to our blogspot.

The Sextile, which is considered a major aspect in astrology, can be given an orb of up to 10° of separation but becomes even more relevant when it is closer (this Astrologer uses a 7° orb of influence) to being direct. 

 

In early February 2025, the sextile between transiting Uranus and Saturn was beginning to activate in our consciousness and within the world. 

 

Transiting Uranus and Saturn in sextile 2025 will bring about opportunity to replace the old ways that no longer work. Uranus must slow down a little and Saturn must allow a forward change.
Transiting Uranus Sextile Transiting Saturn 2025

Uranus and Saturn in their individual nature are opposing forces.  Uranus represents change and often in sudden unexpected ways.  Saturn, on the other hand, represents stability, structure, discipline and restriction.  One planet’s energies bring required change while the other’s energy will resist change often due to concern because what is in place feels stable and reliable. 

 

Uranus calls for revolution and brings in the new because what has been in place no longer works and has become stagnant. The energies have already served their purpose, and we are outgrowing them.  Uranus shakes the foundation, and Saturn resists and remains intent on staying on the current course. 

 

One force must learn to adapt to the other force, and the opportunity, which is what is implied by the Sextile, must be implemented.  These two planets’ energies must find a compromise to work together in the most appropriate manner.  It is obvious that change is required but under what circumstances and how difficult will it be to maneuver forward? 

 

Saturn must bend a little on what it holds true and comfortable, and Uranus must back off a little as well because too much of a shift is something that might be considered erratic and even dangerous. 

 

When evaluating what this means in the overall world scene today, it suggests that a change is needed but radical and sudden manifestations do not work. This erratic energy will cause much chaos which not only affects everyone on some level or another but shakes the very foundation that things are built on.  The old order of things needs to change, but, at the same time, those energies in place that have been used can still be utilized during the transition, because experience has its importance when in the face of change.  

 

People in positions of power need to reach out for assistance in moving forward from those with understanding of and experience with the new being integrated.  There cannot be dictatorships and there must be cooperation amongst those in positions of authority.

 

The house positions in your chart where these two giants are currently positioned, along with other factors (natal position of planets and aspects), including other transits affecting your personal chart, need to be all taken into consideration to arrive at a viable conclusion.

 

The energies we are focused on were powerful especially in March and April, particularly so in the last few days of March into the first two weeks of April 2025.  These energies will be backing off somewhat now, getting weaker but still in force until late September through until early December of 2025.  The energies will become strong again at the end of 2025 and early 2026, finalizing their influence at the end of March into early April 2026.

 

Transiting Uranus and Transiting Saturn in sextile 2025 will bring about opportunity to replace the old ways that no longer work. Uranus must slow down a little and Saturn must allow a forward change.

Transiting Neptune entered Aries on March 30, 2025.  It does go back into Pisces for a short period of time (October 22, 2025, to January 26, 2026) and then after January 2026 remains in Aries until it moves into Taurus in approximately 14 years. 

 

The Sextile aspect (60° between two planets or angles) is considered a major aspect. (The Conjunction, Trine, Square and Opposition are also major aspects.) Normally, we find we begin to feel the energetic influence of any major aspects at about 3-5° prior to becoming direct as well as about 2-3° separating.  When direct (exactly at the degree), this will be the time when the aspects’ energies are most intense.  A transit from transiting Mars, the Sun or transiting Uranus will set in motion the interlinking energies of the planets (used to establish correct timing) that are making aspects together.  The progressed Moon can also be used as a timer.

 

The Sextile aspect is an aspect of opportunity and like the Trine often presents the individual with favourable opportunities, easy flow, pleasant or generally good outcomes, but unlike the Trine (which operates in such a way that little work on the part of the individual involved is required) the Sextile often needs a push or effort from the individual to create results from the opportunity.

 

Neptune, operating in its positive sense, brings to the forefront artistic abilities, creative potential, the want to help others and for those so inclined, can open the door for greater psychic perception. More insight and intuitive abilities can rise to the surface potentially providing those affected by this aspect with opportunities for advancement with these subjects.

 

Natal Mars, depending on its position in the birth chart, often produces a driving force and is a motivating factor for achievement.  It can also have something to do with our sex drive and can become aggressive in this pursuit, depending on which sign and the natal aspect configurations affecting Mars.  It can be confrontational, easily aroused and provide us with a push when we need it (and at the most opportune moments).

 

Do not let the energies of the aspect of Neptune sextile Natal Mars slip away. Put forth effort so that you can reap the rewards of this opportunity involving artistic abilities or the mysteries of life.

Neptune and Mars together can provide the push needed to bring forward some of life’s mysteries, create artistic opportunities for advancement and lead to favorable life events because we now have the ability to push ourselves a little harder with few reservations.  The opportunity is in place, but it will be up to the individual involved to make things happen.  Sitting back idle will not help with achieving what may be wanted. It is up to the individual to put in the work required to accomplish goals.

 

Much will depend on the overall condition of Natal Mars, along with any other transits and progressions in play at the same time.  The houses impacted will define what potential lies ahead and what areas of life are involved.

 

Do not let the energies of the aspect of Neptune sextile Natal Mars slip away. Put forth effort so that you can reap the rewards of this opportunity involving artistic abilities or the mysteries of life.

This article is written in March, 2025. Transiting Neptune is moving into Aries at the end of March. Neptune will remain in Aries until it moves back into Pisces on October 22, 2025.  Neptune returns to Aries in January, 2026 and will then stay in Aries for many years.

 

Pisces, which is normally connected to the spiritual realm, will maneuver its way into the sign of Aries with a real push to find solace in Spirituality and the mystical side of life.  This will now be on a personal basis as Aries is connected to self and the need to move within self-serving enterprises. 

 

Neptune in Pisces, its natural placement, would have opened the door for many who wished to delve deeper into their mystical side.  Now is the time to put all of that training and education into practice.  Much will depend on the placement of transiting Neptune in your natal chart as this will be the area of life that is exposed to these energies.  Also, look at the natal placement of Neptune as well as the aspects it receives in the natal chart as this will provide further important information. 

 

Natal Jupiter and its house placement will speak in terms of expansion and potential growth.  Jupiter often brings with it good fortune, easy flow in obtaining your objectives, and in general, positive energy. 

 

Neptune sextile natal Jupiter provides a great opportunity for growth if you put in the effort required.  Don’t waste this energy.

Neptune and Jupiter in sextile to one another, allowing a 3-5° orb of influence, can create opportunities for growth and expansion around spirituality, music, and theatre, especially if the fifth house is part of the process and the psychic realm for those that have an interest in these fields of expression.  I personally use a smaller orb because, although we can feel these energies coming into our lives, the energies become stronger the closer they are to being direct. 

 

Your Jupiter will likely be in the final degrees in the sign of Capricorn or Taurus or in the early degrees of Aquarius or Gemini for this aspect to play a role in your life currently. 

 

Sextiles are opportunity aspects, but in many cases, we will have to work to put these opportunities now entering our lives into action, as without our involvement not much may take hold.  Once again, look to the houses where transiting Neptune is in, the houses where natal Jupiter and natal Neptune are in and the other aspects taking hold to get a full, clear picture of these energies in place now.

 

Neptune sextile natal Jupiter provides a great opportunity for growth if you put in the effort required.  Don’t waste this energy.
