Faking It Till You Make it with Saturn in Aries-June 2025 Newsletter

How many times have you heard the phrase, “fake it till you make it”?

It’s a phrase that I have thought about quite a few times in my life. As a Leo rising, one of the greatest gifts is that it is a rising sign that can give you the appearance of presenting to the world more bubbly, having more sparkle than you might actually feel. 

I have used this to my advantage in times when I had no choice but to be out there in the world, go to a social event that I didn’t truly have energy for, or felt the need to be more engaging than I actually felt in that moment. 

And sometimes when you pretend to have more energy, or be more cheerful than you actually are, that energy rubs off on you and you start to genuinely feel that. Or the way that people respond to you is so wonderful that you start to raise your vibration and feel good all the way around. 

I have been thinking about that with Saturn’s transit into Aries that happened last Saturday the 24th. 

I personally do not connect with Aries energy in my own chart, I have no planets in Aries, and don’t even have much in the 1st house (which is the house Aries rules). 

And though sometimes that energy can be confronting, abrasive, and blunt, there is much to appreciate. 

Aries helps move energy forward, it is direct and single focused, putting all of its energy towards something until it gets done. Aries is not afraid to go after what it wants and doesn’t take no for an answer. 

This energy in Saturn is not a clear path though. Saturn is all about thinking of plans long-term, whereas Aries just wants to focus on the here and now. 

So how can we merge the two? Find ways to focus on day to day tasks to accomplish something that is a bigger, longer-term plan. 

That is where faking it till you make it comes into play. If you are a person like me who has a hard time making decisions, being direct, and single-focused, it’s time to put on that Aries hat. 

Try it even for a day…

What if for one whole day you tried prioritizing your needs, said what you think, didn’t overthink your choices, and went after what you want without the fear that you would fail. 

It feels refreshing to me, liberating even. 

So with this Saturn transit into Aries for the next two and a half years, is there a way to practice that energy? Especially in the part of our chart where we have Saturn. The part of our life where we hold the most fear, have the most tension and worry. 

What if we played Aries for a day and didn’t worry so much? 

I’m excited to try it out, and see what action comes from it. 

May these next two and a half years show us what magic can come from plunging into your projects without hesitation, just with pure spirit and passion.
