How the tradition reads it
Saturn and Neptune do not leave Aries at any point in 2027. Read that again, because it is the whole year for this sign: the planet of limits and the planet of dissolution sitting together in the sign of the first spark, both turning retrograde in the second half — Neptune from July, Saturn from August — and both still backing through your degrees on New Year's Eve. The tradition would call this a tempering. The iron is not being shaped yet; it is being held in the heat long enough to lose the memory of its old shape.
Your season runs from the equinox in March to late April. The new moon in Aries falls deep inside that window, and it is the seed of the year for anyone working with this sign — one intention, planted where Saturn can see it. The full moon in Aries arrives in mid-October, six months later almost to the day, when the Sun stands in Libra: the reply to April's question, delivered by someone else's balance.
No eclipse touches Aries this year and Mercury never retrogrades through it. That absence matters. There is no cosmic drama to blame. Whatever ignites or fails to ignite in you in 2027 is yours to hold, slowly, under Saturn's eye, while Neptune keeps softening the edges of what you thought you were fighting for.
Hold the heat without striking
Each evening of your season, sit for five minutes with the hands open on the thighs and the jaw unclenched, and notice the first impulse to do something. Do not follow it. Watch how long it lasts before it changes shape. That interval — the time between the spark and the act — is where Saturn is working this year, and it gets longer the more you watch it.
