You know, lately I’ve been feeling this pressure—the kind of pressure that makes you slam the laptop shut and walk away. It wasn’t about work; it was about this one very specific problem I decided I had to solve. One of my oldest buddies, a total Pisces, was having a rough 2024. Like, really rough. Every time we grabbed a beer, it was a new story about some setback. I got sick of just nodding and saying, “2025 will be better.” I wanted to give him a single, locked-down, no-kidding-around month to look forward to. Not a generic horoscope, but the absolute lucky jackpot month for Pisces in 2025. That was the mission I gave myself.
I started this whole process by just diving headfirst into the internet. I figured, “Astrologers pick one!” is a good enough search query, right? Wrong. What a mess. My first three days were basically just sifting through absolute garbage. It was a sea of clickbait titles, generic sun-sign forecasts written by bots, and sites that just copy-pasted last year’s predictions with a new date. I felt like I was back in college, trying to write a paper with zero credible sources. I needed a system. I needed the experts.
The Ugly Grind: Filtering the Gurus from the Fluff
I realized I had to raise the bar. I decided I wouldn’t count any prediction unless it came from a source that met three criteria. First, they had to have written an actual physical book—you can’t just delete a book after it’s published. Second, they had to talk about transits in detail, not just “good vibes.” Third, their 2024 predictions needed to have been somewhat close to reality for any sign, just to prove they weren’t totally winging it.
This filtering process absolutely killed my free time for a solid week. I was opening a dozen browser tabs at once, cross-referencing names I’d never heard of, and watching hours of YouTube videos at 2x speed. I plowed through forums, trying to figure out which names the seasoned folks actually trusted. I ended up with a list of about twelve big-name astrologers—the ones who always pop up on the major network morning shows or have a column in a decades-old magazine. My initial data collection looked like this:
- I set up a super basic spreadsheet.
- The columns were: Astrologer Name, Key Transit they Focused on, and Their Pick for the Absolute Luckiest Month (Pisces 2025).
- The rows quickly filled up with conflicting information:
- One heavy hitter picked March, citing a specific Mars placement.
- Two others were locked on June, focusing on some big money move Jupiter was making.
- Another one basically said, “Don’t bother until October.” I almost deleted that one, but I kept it for data integrity.
It was a proper, confusing fight between the stars, and I was just the referee. My goal wasn’t to understand every single detail of why Jupiter loves the 4th house or whatever; my goal was to find the consensus. I needed a simple majority, a single month that more experts leaned toward than any other.
The Tally and the Lock-Down: Which Month Won?
I finished collecting the data, closing out my twelfth source file, and then I did the simple math. I basically just made a bunch of tally marks next to the months.
March: three votes. That Mars energy was strong, but maybe too volatile for a solid win.
April: five votes. A strong contender, mostly due to Venus entering a very specific area related to partnerships and quick cash.
May: six votes. A narrow majority, but a majority nonetheless.
June: two votes. Only the people focused solely on career made this pick.
October: one outlier vote. Ignored.
The winner was May 2025. Six out of twelve of the most detailed, non-fluff astrologers—the ones who actually map out the charts for a living—pointed at May. The common thread wasn’t a huge, obvious planet changing signs, which is what I expected. Instead, the consensus around May was built on a series of quick, helpful transits that all hit at once. It was less about a single massive event and more about a perfect, one-off alignment of smaller, supporting forces.
It was something to do with the fact that Mercury was moving in a way that made communicating huge ideas effortless, and Venus was providing a boost right into the sector that handles long-term security and family. The combo, according to the breakdown, makes it the easiest month to sign a contract, reconcile a relationship, or finalize a big real estate move without any massive headache. That’s what makes it lucky—not sudden windfall, but frictionless progress.
So, there it is. Weeks of research, digging through endless piles of internet garbage, and building a messy, simple spreadsheet to get one single month. I finally called my buddy and didn’t give him a lecture on transits or houses. I just said, “Look, I did the homework. Forget everything else. May 2025. Lock it down, put your big plans in that slot, and let’s see what happens.” It was exhausting, but damn, it felt good to finally prove something with cold, hard numbers, even if those numbers came from tracking astrologers. Now, we wait.
