By Astrologer Ammit Kapur - Best Astrologer in India, UAE, Dubai, UK, London, US, California and Australia.

As the new year 2025 approaches, it brings a sense of new beginnings, fresh opportunities, and the chance to grow. It’s a time to look back on the past, evaluate and think about the future, excited about the progress we want to make.We all dream of moving forward and making strides toward our goals. As we look forward, many are wondering what the new year will bring. How many achievements will we reach? How much struggle will we face along the way? In this blog, I’ll be talking specifically about those with Leo as their Ascendant and Leo Moon signs. If you're a Leo ascendant, this blog is likely to be 90% relevant to you. If Leo is your moon sign, 60% of it will be relevant to you in 2025.

In 2025, a significant cosmic shift is underway. The outer planets—Jupiter, Saturn, Rahu, and Ketu—will all change signs, bringing profound changes. These shifts occur less frequently, marking a rare alignment that will have a considerable impact on your astrological chart.

Jupiter moves through each sign approximately every 13 months, Saturn every two and a half years, and Rahu and Ketu every 18 months. Other planets like Venus, Sun, Mars and Mercury have shorter transits and I usually keep posting blogs for each transit. In this post, I’ll break down when these major planets will transit and how their movement will affect your ascendant sign or moon sign, particularly focusing on the houses they will enter in 2025. Stay tuned to understand how these changes will shape your journey in the coming year.

Lets Overview the Planetary Positions for the year 2025

This year, all four of outer planets - Jupiter, Saturn, Rahu, and Ketunare changing signs 

JUPITER: Jupiter will be in your 10th house in Taurus from January 1, 2025, to May 15, 2025. After that, from May 15, 2025, until October 2025, Jupiter will transit through your 11th house in Gemini.

This year, Jupiter's movement is particularly noteworthy as it deviates from its usual pattern. Jupiter is getting dynamic (atichari).  Instead of spending 13 months in one sign, Jupiter will speed up its transit and shift into Cancer in October 2025. From here, it will retrograde back into Gemini. By the end of the year, or in the last quarter, Jupiter will be in Cancer Sign. Jupiter will change signs twice: once on May 15 and again in October. This change is going to bring you some significant golden opportunities. 

SATURN: From January 1 to March 28, 2025, Saturn will be in your 7th house. After that, it will move into your 8th house.

For Leo Moon Sign: With Saturn transiting the 8th house from your moon sign (Ashtam bhav), you will enter Saturn's Dhaiya, a challenging two-and-a-half-year period.

For Leo Ascendant: Saturn's transit through your 8th house may bring some difficulties and challenges, as this position is not typically favorable for you.

RAHU AND KETU: Rahu and Ketu always move in retrograde motion, and their sign change on May 18, 2025

Rahu: From May 1st, 2025, to May 17th, 2025, Rahu will transit through your 8th house in Pisces. After that, starting May 18th, 2025, and continuing until the end of the year, Rahu will shift into your 7th house in Aquarius.

Ketu will be transiting through your 2nd house in Virgo from January 1st, 2025, until May 17th, 2025. After May 18th, 2025, and continuing until the end of the year, Ketu will move into your Ascendant house.

This provides a brief overview of the key planetary transits for 2025. Further in the post, we will delve deeper into the details, analyzing the year ahead in four quarters to give you a more thorough understanding of how each phase will unfold.

QUARTER 1 (JANUARY - MARCH) -  PROFESSIONAL GROWTH AND RECOGNITION

During this period, Jupiter will shower you with blessings, leading to significant success in your professional life. Saturn will also favor you during this time, bringing progress and success. Your daily income will see an increase, and your health will remain stable. 

However, you may experience some mental stress and anxiety, with random thoughts and occasional negative thinking creeping in. 

Despite this, both Saturn and Jupiter will support you in terms of income, earnings, and your career or business. In the first quarter, you can expect professional growth, rising status, and respect in your field. Financially, things will improve, and you’ll see strong financial partnerships. Your collaborators will be especially supportive, helping some of your major projects take off. Saturn’s placement in your 7th house will bring substantial benefits, and Jupiter's influence in your 10th house (career sector or karma sthan) will propel you towards new opportunities.

This is also an excellent time to consider investments, as the first quarter offers great potential for financial gains. Your old investments will yield positive results, bringing recognition and prosperity. You will enjoy name, fame, prosperity and luck will be on your side. If you're in a job, a promotion might be on the horizon, or you may contemplate a career change. Overall, the first quarter will align with your expectations, and fortune will be on your side. #bestastrologerindubai

Your health and wealth will be in a strong position during the first quarter. Avoid getting caught up in negative thoughts—stay focused and go with the flow. Keep putting in the effort, and you will see the best results unfold.

QUARTER 2 (APRIL - JUNE) - GOOD FORTUNE IS YOURS

In the second quarter, Saturn will be in your 8th house, which isn't considered an ideal placement. However, despite this, the planetary positions of Saturn will form a Vipreet Raj Yog, which can bring unexpected benefits. While Saturn’s position in the 8th house may present challenges, overall, the situations will remain relatively stable and manageable. This transit will prove to be an average transit.

After May 15th, 2025, when Jupiter transits into your 11th house, you can expect a significant rise in your financial gains. Your 5th house will be influenced by both benefic and malefic planets. Jupiter, will have its 7th aspect on the 5th house, and Saturn, being in the 8th house will have its 10th aspect on the 5th house too, will both have an impact. In astrology, when both types of planets—benefic and malefic—affect the same house, it becomes highly active. As a result, the second quarter will bring unexpected financial gains from sources such as the stock market, gambling, lotteries, or even your creative pursuits. Your creative ideas are going to create magic here and will prove very beneficial for you.

Your family will be fully supportive during this time, and if you’re married with children, you’ll notice significant improvements in your relationships with them. The second quarter looks especially promising for making smart investments, and you’ll gain recognition for your efforts. If you're considering switching jobs, this period is ideal for achieving fame and success. 

Both the first and second quarters will be great for your career, bringing you achievements, recognition, and an increase in profits. You'll experience name, fame, prosperity, and success, along with good fortune and unexpected financial windfalls. Things will unfold as expected, bringing you comfort and resources, while your desires get fulfilled. Good Fortune will be yours and you will enjoy unexpected financial gains. Things are gonna turn out just as you expect, and you'll enjoy comforts and resources while your desires get fulfilled.#businessreport#financereport

Jupiter’s transit through your 11th house will attract good luck, and you'll receive support from higher-ups, older siblings, and your social circle. If you're involved in any networking activities, after May 15th, 2025, it will be a game changer, and you'll make substantial money from those connections. 

If you're working on a venture involving joint finances, you'll see improvements in your returns. Overall, your finances, health, and wealth will be in great shape, and you'll experience mental stability throughout this period. Everything regarding your health and wealth will align perfectly.

Saturn's transit into your 8th house during the second quarter may bring some delays, challenges, and obstacles. However, thanks to the favorable alignment created by the Vipreet Raj Yog, you’ll experience relief, particularly in legal matters. If you’ve been dealing with any court issues, expect them to be resolved during this period. Additionally, any money you’ve been spending on legal expenses will begin to decrease. If you’ve been facing health issues, they should start improving and getting resolved soon.#horoscopereading2025

The combined influence of Jupiter and Saturn on your 5th house will bring positive outcomes, especially in smart investments, so you can expect good profits and financial gains during this time.

QUARTER 3 (JULY - SEPTEMBER) - EXPECT SOME CHALLENGES 

The third quarter may bring some challenges your way. During this time, your health could become a concern, especially with issues affecting your lower abdomen. You might experience leg pain and some mental stress, which could lead to various health-related problems.

The third quarter brings in complications, delays, and hurdles. Things may not go as expected, and you’ll find yourself putting in a lot of hard work with little immediate reward. Times are going to be real tough as both mental and financial stress will be at their peak. Financially, you could face a crunch, with cash flow being tight, and things not progressing as hoped. If you’ve made any investments, don’t expect significant returns during this time. It’s best to avoid borrowing or lending money in the third quarter.#bestastrologerinindia

You’ll need to be mindful of your actions and avoid making false commitments. You will need to work on your behavior and your way of speaking. Adopting a balanced approach towards tricky situations will help you steer through the period comfortably, else you might end yourself in trouble. 

The third quarter may bring confusion, and relationships could face some turbulence. The atmosphere at home might not be harmonious, and there could be issues with your spouse’s health or your relationship with them. If you’re unmarried, this period is not favorable for starting new relationships or receiving marriage proposals.

Stay alert and cautious, as there is a possibility of being deceived or cheated during this time. When it comes to finances, it’s wise to avoid making any major decisions in the third quarter. The first and second quarters are much better for financial choices, so try to make solid decisions during that time. The third quarter will bring fewer opportunities, and things may not turn out as expected.

Overall, the third quarter will be challenging, with struggles both physically and financially.#healthreport

QUARTER 4 (OCTOBER - DECEMBER) -  FOREIGN TIES AND FINANCIAL GAINS 

The fourth quarter looks much more promising for you, especially when it comes to foreign connections and opportunities. You'll experience significant financial gains, particularly through ties with friends or partners from abroad. If you're considering starting a business overseas, or if you've already applied for a PR or work visa, the fourth quarter is likely to bring success. After October 2025, your PR or work visa may be approved, opening up exciting new possibilities. If you’ve been thinking about getting married abroad, this will also be a favorable time for you.#foreignsettlement2025

Throughout the fourth quarter, you'll see support in terms of income, gains, and speculative ventures, although the first two quarters of the year will be especially strong for you. While the third quarter may not be as favorable, the fourth quarter will be more balanced and productive. If you're involved in the import-export business, there’s potential for receiving a large order from abroad or securing a signing bonus. Essentially, you could experience unexpected financial gains from international sources.

Foreign friends and partners will be instrumental in your success, and they may offer support or collaborate with you for mutual financial growth. The fourth quarter will be filled with opportunities for creative ideas and new ventures in connection with foreign land. Overall, things will align with your expectations, and you’ll enjoy great success in both personal and professional aspects during this time.

Overall 2025

Due to Saturn’s transit in your 8th house, you may encounter challenges and delays, but don't let this discourage you. It's important to consult with elders in your family or experts before making any major financial decisions. This year you need to steer through with caution and alert. You will have to be mindful when it comes to your communication and behavior. The third quarter needs to be dealt with carefully. 

The first, second, and fourth quarters of the year will be favorable for you, so make the most of these periods. Work on nurturing good relationships with your grandparents and cousins throughout the year - mainly your paternal family (dadka pariwar)

While maintaining close bonds with your cousins, avoid involving them in financial matters or making false commitments, whether with them or your friends. The third quarter will be tricky, requiring extra caution. Even though the new year 2025 brings potential achievements and prosperity, you need to stay laser-focused and give your best performance. With Saturn moving through your 8th house, this might not be the easiest time for you. Additionally, on May 18th, Rahu will enter your 7th house, and Ketu will move into your ascendant, leading to changes that might not go according to your expectations during the third quarter.

You'll need to remain very alert and careful during this time. While the first two quarters will support you, the third quarter will not be favorable. Relationships with your spouse may face challenges, and you could encounter difficulties with business partners as well. The fourth quarter brings some relief with Jupiter's transition into your 12th house, but with Saturn still in the 8th, Rahu in your 7th house, and Ketu in your ascendant, things may not go as planned.

The influence of malefic planets in your ascendant and 7th house will also impact you, especially if you're going through the Rahu-Ketu Mahadasha. This period may be more challenging, requiring extra effort to navigate through potential struggles.
