Sabian symbolS

The visual metaphors for each degree of the zodiac

“A flag turned into an eagle”

The corresponding Sabian Symbol, “A Flag is Seen Turning into an Eagle,” reflects transformation, vision, and leadership.
This imagery resonates deeply with the Snake’s journey of shedding its skin and rising to new heights. It invites us to embrace the cycles of death and rebirth that define personal and collective evolution.

Just as the flag transforms into an eagle, 2025 calls on us to transcend limitations and soar with clarity and purpose.

“A popularity that proves ephemeral”

This symbol “A Popularity that Proves Ephemeral” highlights the transient nature of fame and success. It serves as a reminder that popularity can be fleeting and that true value lies beyond public approval.

On a personal and collective level, this means that the quest for higher ideals must be balanced with an awareness of the ephemeral nature of popularity and success. You might wake up to realize that you – or someone else – is not as ideal as you believed.

A Year of Rebirth and Renewal

A Prelude to Evolution

2025 is a year of profound transformation and anticipation, marked by the fiery essence of Hexagram 30 (Li), the daring energies of the Channel of Daring (30-41), and the societal shifts ushered in by Pluto’s transit through Aquarius. This year’s themes revolve around the brilliance of human civilization, symbolized by celestial fire, and the potential destruction or rebirth that comes with such transformative forces.

With Mars, Saturn, and Venus influencing the year’s energies, 2025 blends the drive for action, the need for structure, and the pursuit of harmony in shaping our individual and collective paths.

Pluto in Aquarius adds another layer of transformation, inspiring groundbreaking technological advancements, ethical considerations, and the dismantling of outdated systems.

This energy encourages us to anticipate and prepare for a future where innovation (AI) and responsibility go hand in hand, ensuring that progress aligns with human values.

HUMAN DESIGN: With three highlighted gates (30, 19, 60) anchored in the Root Center, fear and anxiety may arise naturally. The world we once knew is changing for good – sometimes dramatically, as seen in recent events like the devastating and destructive wildfires in Los Angeles.

“It is more important than ever to cultivate resilience, believe in yourself, and have general stamina.”

We will have to embrace bold new ways and align with the greater evolutionary arc leading to 2027:

The shift from the “Cross of Planning” to the “Cross of the sleeping Phoenix”:

Moving away from traditional tribal structures, where survival and security depended on the collective, toward a world prioritizing individuality and self-sovereignty.

On a personal level, these shifts call for an even deeper commitment to self-care and emotional regulation with a focus on:

  • Creating space for compassion and clarity amidst the chaos. 
  • Evaluating information carefully and not getting distracted by the noise.
  • Practices that are grounding – resting, breathing deeply, and aligning with heart coherence
  • Knowing who you truly are and what you came here to do becomes essential – not what others have told you, but what your inner truth reveals.
    The world is shifting, and aligning with your authentic self is no longer just a luxury – it’s a necessity for navigating these transformative times with clarity and purpose. 

2025  is a bridge – a moment to shed outdated paradigms like the snake that sheds its skin.

This is your time to define your path, free from conditioning, and live in alignment with your unique design and mission.

With the support of the numerological “9″ energy, the fire-driven momentum of Period 9, the expansive influence of Jupiter, and the symbolism of the Sabian Symbols, 2025 offers a unique chance to rise above limitations and embrace a brighter, more meaningful future.
