Are you ready to take charge? If you’ve been waiting for a cosmic push, the Sun shifting into Aries on March 21, 2025, will light the fire beneath you—especially when it comes to bold decisions and fresh starts.
As the Sun moves from the dreamy, intuitive waters of Pisces into the fierce, action-oriented energy of Aries, the time for reflection gives way to movement. Aries doesn’t hesitate—it leads, acts, and initiates. This season marks the astrological New Year, making it a powerful time to step into your courage, take decisive action, and set fire to anything holding you back.
New Moon in Aries (Solar Eclipse)
Aries Season begins with a bang—a New Moon in Aries on March 29, 2025, which also happens to be a Total Solar Eclipse. Unlike a typical New Moon, which allows for slow, intentional manifestation, a Solar Eclipse accelerates change and acts as a cosmic reset button. Aries energy is already bold and action-driven, but under an eclipse, its force is undeniable. This is a moment of fated shifts, where hesitation no longer serves you, and the universe clears a path whether you’re ready or not.
This isn’t the time for small, cautious moves. Aries demands action, confidence, and independence, pushing you toward something new. What have you been delaying? Where in your life do you need to take the lead? What needs to be burned down so you can move forward? The answers may arrive suddenly, and once they do, there’s no going back. This eclipse also closes the first eclipse season of the year, finalizing a chapter and ensuring that whatever comes next is fully aligned with your path.
For those who practice spellwork during eclipses, this is a powerful time for banishing fear, breaking through limitations, claiming your power, and setting irreversible change into motion. Aries holds the energy of initiation—any magic done now will be fueled by its fire, making it an ideal time for courage spells, road opening, or protection work. If there’s something you need to cut away to move forward, this is the moment to do it.

Full Moon in Libra
The second major lunation of Aries Season is the Full Moon in Libra on April 12, 2025. Every Full Moon brings revelations, clarity, and release, and in Libra—the opposite sign of Aries—the focus shifts from self to relationships. While Aries thrives on independence and self-assertion, Libra reminds us that connection and balance are just as important. This Full Moon illuminates the tension between personal desires and the needs of others, making it clear where adjustments need to be made.
This lunation asks you to examine where your life is out of balance. Are your relationships supporting your growth, or are they limiting you? Are you standing fully in your power, or are you compromising too much? Have you been too focused on yourself, neglecting the relationships that matter? Libra, ruled by Venus, seeks harmony, but Aries reminds us that not all connections are worth keeping. If something is misaligned, this Full Moon will bring it to the surface.
Magic for this lunation is best focused on relationship healing, self-worth, setting boundaries, and clarity in partnerships. If a situation has been murky, expect to see it clearly now. The energy here isn’t about burning everything down, as Aries might—it’s about realigning, restoring, and deciding what truly deserves your time and energy.
