With the new year comes the new Barbanera. The most famous and long-lived almanac in Italy, UNESCO Memory of the World, gives us the forecasts from the sky to live in harmony with the Moon and the stars and many good practices from tradition to be well according to nature.
Wise Blackbeard scans the sky of 2025 and reads: “New Year, New Life.” It is the proverb written by the elements Fire and Air. Pluto definitively enters Aquarius, Saturn and Neptune pass quickly into Aries, and Uranus into Gemini. Everything is in progress, in evolution. 2025 closes a cycle, not by chance the sum of its digits is 9, which according to numerology is a symbol of completion and spirituality.
The key words for 2025 are: “Act","decide","to realize ideas and aspirations”. With our eyes on the horizon, we take action to build a better world. Let us not be intimidated by the contradictions and challenges that every great change brings with it. Of course, society is moving at a hundred miles an hour, and it asks us to keep up. But it is up to us to find the speed that makes us feel good.
From June onwards, Jupiter in the sign of Cancer reminds us that we need tradition, family, sensitivity. Let's welcome new things and differences, and smooth out conflicts as soon as they arise. But without forgetting who we are and where we come from.. Going back to the origins is not a step backwards, on the contrary, it helps us walk confidently. The stars invite us to take care of ourselves with an immersion in creativity. Let us devote ourselves to reading, to projects, to discoveries, to invention, to art. Each of us has a favorite activity that activates the mind. This year let's give it space, let's give it time.
The for the zodiac signs in the sky 2025 progress, renewal and small happinesses meet. Those born under the sign ofRam will be able to invent and reshuffle the cards. Pluto guides their steps: new realities will amaze them.

The formidable intuition of those born under the sign of Cancer unties the knots and, on condition of getting involved, clears the road from obstacles. While the astral children of the Lion they sow to reap, they plant and cultivate future projects that are about to blossom. Desire to do and perhaps undo for those born in Virgo, who show off boldness and a proactive spirit, supported by Jupiter starting in June.
For those born in Balance the first months of the year are the best to realize expectations and desires with the awareness of being able to do it. And those born under the sign of Scorpio will be able to put their accounts and affections in order with the clarity needed to avoid errors of judgment. The path to long-term projects is also traced for those who are Sagittarius, but changes require preparation time.
Those born in the 1970s are committed and do not give up. Capricorn: their tirelessness will be rewarded in the end. Those who are of the sign ofAquarium will be able to give space to his fertile imagination, thanks to Pluto that helps to give power to dreams.

The new year and the predictions for 2025 seem interesting but I don't know if I believe them that much, sometimes the stars don't seem to have much influence on our lives. Anyway, it's nice to have some ideas.
I agree with you, Doriana. Sometimes predictions can seem a bit vague and depend a lot on how one feels. But it is interesting to see how people are influenced by these topics.
