From the end, to the beginning. A new story told by Neptune for the first time in 165 years
In January 2026, Neptune will move into Aries for the first time in 165 years.
These past few years have been called a "period of transition," but I feel that 2026 is highly likely to be an even greater turning point among them.
This is because during the first half of 2026 (about six months starting in January), celestial bodies that strongly influence the Earth and society as a whole, such as Neptune, Saturn, and Jupiter, will one after another make the significant move of "crossing zodiac signs."
In this article, I would like to write about
"Neptune's movement," which will occur starting on January 27, 2026.
Neptune from Pisces to Aries
Neptune had stepped into Aries once, but it went retrograde on October 22 of last year and returned to Pisces.
And this time, Neptune, having returned to Aries, will not go retrograde again.
This is where the real journey begins.
What Neptune symbolizes is:
Dreams
Intuition
Collective consciousness
The unseen world
During the approximately 13 to 14 years it spent in Pisces, interest in the "unseen world"—such as spirituality, fortune-telling, religion, divinity, and conspiracy theories—spread rapidly.
Beyond believing or not believing, it can be said that it became an era where these things were discussed as a matter of course.
From the 12th to the 1st—"End" and "Beginning"
Pisces is the last of the 12 zodiac signs,
Aries is the first of the 12 zodiac signs.
In other words, this movement is a
transition from "end" to "beginning."
Neptune takes about 165 years to complete one orbit through the 12 zodiac signs.
For that slowly moving celestial body to move from the 12th to the 1st is a first in 165 years.
By the way, 165 years ago in Japan, it was the end of the Edo period, and
The instability of the system due to the union of the imperial court and the shogunate
The crisis of the Russian occupation of Tsushima
The spread of the Revere the Emperor, Expel the Barbarians ideology
and more, it was an era when values themselves began to shake significantly. That flow would eventually lead to the overthrow of the shogunate and the Meiji Restoration.
From 'Believing' to 'Living' Spirituality
In the last few years, the spiritual world has ceased to be something for only a select few.
Rather than just a trend, I personally feel it is
the result of people exhausted by an era of rapid change beginning to search for true happiness and the meaning of life.
And then, 2026.
As Neptune enters Aries, the flow will change significantly.
Moving away from 'just believing,' 'just wishing,' or 'just fantasizing,'
toward a spirituality where you shape your ideals with your own hands.
Taking action.
Starting something.
Taking a step forward with your own will.
The 'fire' energy of Aries will begin to ignite the real world.

Those who will start to be rewarded, those who will struggle
Until now,
those who have believed in themselves and carved out new paths
those who have quietly built things up beneath the surface
for such people, the flow toward manifesting things in reality will strengthen.
On the other hand,
clinging to the past
Suppressing your true feelings
Not believing in yourself
If you continue such "small acts of violence against yourself," this turning point might feel a bit painful.
This is because it is an era where many things, both good and bad, are likely to surface.
Toward an era of deciding for yourself and moving forward
Looking at recent news such as the proposal to dissolve the House of Representatives, I feel that Japan is reaching a major turning point, both politically and in terms of the times.
That is precisely why, before worrying about the country or society,
"How will I live my life?"
Perhaps each and every one of us is being asked that question anew.
From small communities to regions, countries, work, and human relationships.
Everything
starts to change once you begin to act on your own will.
2026 is the first year of such a beginning.
Thank you for reading until the end.
I wish you peaceful days ahead.
