Aligning with the Cosmos: Rituals for the Remaining 2025 Transits
As we move into the final stretch of 2025, the skies continue to guide us with their wisdom. Planetary shifts, lunar phases, and eclipses each carry unique frequencies that can support our healing and spiritual evolution. Below you’ll find the upcoming transits; complete with their exact dates, ritual themes, affirmations, journal prompts, and self-care practices.
Note on Moon Water: Moon water is a sacred way of charging water with lunar energy for cleansing, ritual baths, teas, or altar offerings. I recommend making moon water under Full Moons and New Moons but not during eclipses or dark moons unless working with Shadow or Chaos; as these carry shadowy or chaotic energy.
