2025 marks the beginning of a new generation known as Beta. Generations typically last around 15 years and encapsulate the formative uyears of those born during that time. The slow moving planets, not traditionally used in Vedic astrology, can give insight into how the themes of a generation play out. For instance, During the Baby Boomer generation, born 1946-1964, Pluto, traveled through the Gandanta point between Cancer and Leo during a time when the nuclear family was breaking down and a rise in individual expression came about. Prior to that, was the Silent Generation, born 1928-1945, Pluto traveled through Punarvasu Nakshatra, meaning the return of the light, where the mothers of the Boomer gernation were born and eventually learned how to survive through famine and limited resources. Fast forward to today, and the Beta generation has begin. Pluto will travel through Sidereal Capricorn, breaking down structures of authority and personal ambition. Uranus and its innovative and eccentric nature will move slowly through Taurus, Gemini and into Cancer while an elusive Neptune travels through Pisces and into Aries.

Pluto Before Beta

Approximately 248 years ago, around 1773, Pluto was in Capricorn. Notable figures born during the last sidereal Pluto in Capricorn exemplify the Saturnian themes of structure, authority, and legacy associated with this placement. People such as William Henry Harrison, the 9th U.S. President, Klemens von Metternich, the architect of post-Napoleonic Europe, and Lord Byron, the revolutionary Romantic poet, all left their marks on history through their engagement with societal frameworks. Others, like Sally Hemings, highlighted the oppressive structures of their time, and philosophers like Arthur Schopenhauer questioned the fundamental constructs of existence. Together, they represent a generation tasked with navigating and reshaping the foundations of their world, leaving legacies that resonate with Capricorn’s enduring ambition and transformative

power.

Uranus in Taurus Radicalizes Speech

Throughout history, whenever Uranus has traveled through Taurus, rebellion and unconventional thinking have taken center stage. This transit shakes up the stability that Taurus craves, introducing groundbreaking ideas that challenge the status quo. In Taurus, Uranus inspires innovation in areas like communication, personal values, and material stability, often leading to seismic shifts in societal norms. People feel called to speak out boldly, question traditions, and adopt progressive mindsets. The energy of Uranus in Taurus doesn't just reform—it revolutionizes, urging transformation in how we express our truths and relate to the material world.

​

As Uranus progresses into Gemini, this rebellious energy shifts toward intellectual exploration and communication. Gemini amplifies Uranus's knack for innovation, sparking breakthroughs in technology, education, and the way we exchange information. Expect rapid changes in media, literature, and social connections. During this period, there is a push toward decentralization of knowledge and the rise of ideas that challenge outdated mental frameworks. This is the era where words become weapons, innovation becomes the norm, and intellectual revolutions shape the collective consciousness.

​

When Uranus moves into Cancer, the focus turns inward to the emotional core of society. The radical energy of Uranus transforms home, family, and cultural identity. This period often brings changes to domestic structures, redefining what “home” and “security” mean on both personal and collective levels. Traditional roles are upended, and people are encouraged to embrace new forms of nurturing and emotional expression. The unconventional Uranian energy pushes for freedom in emotional attachments, the deconstruction of rigid familial expectations, and a broader, more inclusive view of belonging.

​

This arc of Uranus through Taurus, Gemini, and Cancer highlights an evolutionary journey from material and intellectual revolution to emotional and cultural transformation, marking a period of deep and profound change.

​

Neptune through Pisces to Aries

Neptune has been in Pisces for the last several years and will continue moving through the sign during much of the Beta Generation. Over the course of history, whenever Neptune was in Pisces, themes of spiritual awakening, artistic innovation, and collective escapism prevailed. This transit often brings a heightened focus on dreams, ideals, and the unseen realms, blurring the boundaries between reality and fantasy. It’s a time when society leans toward seeking deeper meaning, whether through spiritual exploration, creative expression, or even mass movements shaped by idealistic visions. However, Neptune’s Piscean influence can also bring confusion, disillusionment, and escapism, as people grapple with the gap between dreams and reality.

​

As Neptune transitions into Aries, this ethereal energy undergoes a dramatic shift. The dreamy, introspective nature of Pisces gives way to the bold, action-oriented drive of Aries. This marks a period of turning ideals into action and channeling inspiration into pioneering efforts. Neptune in Aries encourages individuals and societies to take courageous steps toward manifesting their visions, often sparking movements rooted in passion and a pioneering spirit. While Pisces dissolves boundaries, Aries forges ahead, bringing clarity and urgency to what was once abstract or ambiguous. This transit is marked by a surge in self-expression, assertiveness, and the courage to fight for collective ideals, blending Neptune’s vision with Aries’ bold energy.

​

The journey of Neptune from Pisces to Aries reflects a societal evolution—from dreaming of a better world to actively creating it. This shift will inspire the Beta Generation to redefine spiritual and creative paradigms, moving from passive contemplation to dynamic innovation and action.
