What does 2025 have in store for us in Montpellier? We asked an astrologer the question. The answers are anything but journalistic and have no other aim than to start the year with a smile and a little lightness.
Tram line 5 subject to the vagaries of Mercure transports
Will the extension of tram line 1 scheduled for October 18 and the launch of line 5 on December 20, 2025 at 11 a.m. be delivered on time?
M3M
“Given the exponential development of the Cambacérès district and transport, there is an urgent need to meet deadlines. Everything will be implemented, sometimes even unceremoniously behind the scenes, in a context of extreme tensions until June 18. A disruptor could invite himself to the party, it is the famous Mercury (the exchanges) which becomes Retrograde (which moves backwards) and which makes you distracted, creates misunderstandings, and ruins any good organization Mercury. will operate from March 15 to April 8, from July 19 to August 12 and from November 10 to 30. The launch of Line 5 risks experiencing setbacks, unlike the extension of Line 1 which is holding its own. promises.”
A decisive year for Michaël Delafosse
Will 2025 come naturally to Michaël Delafosse or will he have obstacles in his way before the municipal elections in early 2026?
Midi Libre – JEAN-MICHEL MART
“Every politician is subject to opposition before the elections, it is a fact. Michaël Delafosse, mayor of Montpellier, is no exception to the rule. From the sign of Aries, he is strongly marked by the movements of Mars, which manages its sign. But Mars is terribly turbulent until February 26 and from April 16 to June 18. It can trigger the motivation to confront its detractors. The month of May is hot. May 14 and 22) and the cold (May 5, 11, 15) If July 13 and 26 are auspicious, the beginning of August marks a strong mistral in his life. September 7 seems favorable.
MHSC: on the path to success at the end of the season
Can the MHSC stay in Ligue 1 this year?
Midi Libre – MICHAEL ESDOURRUBAILH
“The Héraultais club, which is celebrating its 50th anniversary, is banking on the renewal of its image and communicating on its past exploits. Faced with the economic reality linked to the reduction in broadcasting rights, Laurent Nicollin is led to restructure the organization and management of his club in the first quarter This excellent club which trains and launches talented players is not yet big enough to capitalize on its nuggets. However, thanks to a drastic cut, it recovers its financial balance and is relaunching towards the. path to exponential success from the end of June.
Intermarché or Carrefour: the games are open
Will the Géant Casino which folded up shop in Odysseum be replaced by a new brand?
“Born from the desire of Georges Frêche, Odysseum, however, is struggling to attract its customers. Some major brands have broken their teeth and thrown in the towel, undergoing, at the same time, the transformation of consumption habits. Other major brands are already well established in Montpellier, however, a group stands out from the crowd There is question of Intermarché setting up in Odysseum. I see Carrefour as more solid and would make a grand entrance. followed by a slump in the summer then an economic improvement around September.
Make way for influencers!
After the Lebrun brothers and Artus, what other personality could emerge in 2025?
“The region has always produced or attracted personalities, whether from Rabelais to Artus, the Lebrun brothers, via Nostradamus. Given the rise of new technologies, artificial intelligence and new professions linked to these sectors, this is not an emerging personality but rather the brotherhood of influencers and those who express themselves, communicate and transmit their point of view via social networks. French startupper, Nicolux 84, Justinaccessible, Noah. Sgds, to name a few.
Get out of debt
With the budgetary difficulties looming, will Montpellier residents pay more taxes?
“We are all living in a pivotal time between bourgeois, good-natured traditions and enlightened modernity, amplified by the growing demand for communication infrastructures. We are all embarked on the same ship which navigates different and tumultuous waters, leading everyone to individualize themselves while being in mutual aid The City and the State are in the process of taking action, while seeking to get out of debt Free transport needs to be financed, the tax on corporate waste is. maintained when the service is no longer. Automatically, taxes increase while being contained, given the deadline for future municipal elections.
The ZFE down before the start of the school year
Will the ZFE (low emissions zone) come into force in 2025 with fines involved?
“The implementation of the ZFE starts from a good feeling but does not promote a viable economic model for traders and artisans in the city center. In its current form, the project risks falling behind schedule and requires objective and educational exchanges to reach agreement among the people concerned, this will take place in two major stages at the end of winter and the end of spring. Certain arrangements must absolutely be considered, which requires gradual implementation. it is put in place around September.”
The heatwave summer
Should we fear a scorching summer or significant bad weather this year?
“Montpellier is located at the crossroads of the influences of the Mistral and the Tramontane, which sometimes makes weather forecasts complicated. With climate change, heatwave episodes in summer alternate with heavy rains, sometimes induced by episodes in the Cévennes. This year is no exception to the rule but amplifies the temperature differences between intense heat and devastating storms. Unless you pay particular attention to the reintegration of plants and trees, it is better. get organized, provide good air conditioning and anticipate the consequences of rain.”
