Uranus enters Taurus May 15, 2018 to November 6, 2018, has a six month retreat back into Aries and then re-enters Taurus on March 6, 2019 to July 7, 2025. Four months later, Uranus returns to Taurus November 8, 2025 to April 26, 2026, finishing up its work before moving on to the next sign.
Themes: Patient liberation. Harmonious chaos. Beautiful awakening. Individuating traditions. Innovating resources. Balanced revolution. Sensual rebellion. Sexual revolution. Biohacks. Decluttering. Radical self-care. Grounded intellect. Intuitive foundations. Father Sky and Mother Earth. Ouranos and Gaia. Creative memories.
The major cosmic event of 2018 takes place on May 15, 2018 when the planet Uranus (the archetype of sudden changes, revolution and individuation) enters the sign of Taurus, the sign of personal resources, money, value/ values, food, the body and sensuality!
These two energies square each other on the zodiac wheel, and the tension of this transit may feel rather uncomfortable when these two energies collide. Uranus represents the collective, Taurus represents the personal. Uranus is associated with the future, Taurus is more concerned with the past. It can feel quite messy at times, and yet, creativity relies on chaos. Indeed, in order to think outside of the box, requires a box.
The highest aspiration for the next seven years will have us mixing and mingling the vibes, tempering the two into a harmonious blend. It will be a time of pairing down, liberating ourselves from the impractical and striving for out of the box solutions.
As an outer planet, Uranian influence impacts generations rather than the individual. Having said that, the house Uranus transits in your natal or progressed chart is where you can look for some clues as to what to expect during this 7 year transit. The vlog is a breakdown of what to expect by rising sign, but you can listen (or read on) for your sun and moon sign as well....
ARIES:
Expect the unexpected when it comes to Uranus in your second house of personal value, Aries! You are never short on courage, and this transit calls up everything you have when it comes to defending what is most important to you, your values, but also, your tangible assets. If you have been feeling the limitations of money-making opportunities, you might get a fresh jolt of inspiration here. You may even lead the charge on financial trends, like using Bitcoin and cryptocurrency, to name a few. Perhaps you are more invested in a barter economy. Whatever it is, Courageous Aries, you have no fear when it comes to exploring these new resources in new ways.
TAURUS:
Taurus rising folks are, generally speaking, patient, calm and very pleasing to the eyes. Uranus transiting your first house of personal appearance means radical shifts in how how others see you and how you approach the world. Uranus is the ruler of all things high-tech, infusing its eclectic innovation into the world of self-care and beauty. We will likely be inspired by Taurus' new-found, futuristic modes of relaxation or desire for botox alternative (Light frequency skin care, anyone?). Bio-hacks, body modifications and enhancements are all on par for you during this transit. Or, (hopefully!?) you might surprise us all with your own blending of future and traditional modes of body positivity!
GEMINI:
Expect sudden awareness around any long-repressed sexual fantasies, sensual desires or physical sensations, Gemini. And don't be surprised by sudden flashes of insight on the heels of bodywork, massage or even sexual intercourse. This can be a jolt to your nervous system, but honestly, the seven year transit of Uranus in Taurus is cracking you open to new ways of experiencing your body wisdom! Body work, dream work, massage, yoga -- all can help you access your intuition and give life to your deepest (most fertile?) dreams!
CANCER:
Get ready to meet your Angels, Cancer. This Uranus transit will be shaking up your personal connections -- social networks, friendships, colleagues... Allow for the shifts in personal relations and a sudden influx of new support! Cancer, this transit teaches you about the true nature of self-reliance. It can feel uncomfortable having to ask for help, especially when YOU are the one everyone else turns to for support, but the next seven years will show you how to give -- and how to receive from others!
LEO:
Building a legacy often requires some kind of plan -- if not a formal one, there is most certainly always a vision of what you want to leave behind. The transit of Uranus into your 10th house of reputation means you can expect a sudden change in direction. Risk taking is your forte, Leo. Your gift to the world is your authentic self expression. This transit is a great time to break out of the mold "they" would have you fill and march to the beat of your own heart!
VIRGO:
You are called to innovate your natural penchant for sorting through the rubble to create calm with this transit, Virgo. When Uranus enters your 9th House of Higher Education and Justice, Global Citizenship and Spirituality, you may feel a sudden impulse to explore femininity in entirely new way. Perhaps throwing yourself into the mix as an advocate of women's rights, ecology, fertility, self-care, or even finance. Whatever it is you choose now, Virgo, the world can certainly learn a thing or two from you about discernment!
LIBRA:
Your penchant for creating harmony often means that you will go above and beyond to make others feel more comfortable -- at your own expense. The next seven years will kick up the dust that has been swept under the proverbial rug of your interpersonal vulnerabilities. With a Uranus transit through your 8th House, your lessons in relating to others deepens and you may suddenly come to understand that balance and harmony are two different things -- balance means equal but separate measures. Harmony means the blending of two or more into a pleasing mix. Don't overlook your heart's deepest yearnings for harmony. Building authentic connections relies on it.
SCORPIO:
Scorpio wants to connect deeply in everything it does -- and Uranus in your house of relationships injects a jolt of liberation from superficial connections. The next seven year transit will definitely shift the way you connect with others. You suddenly get that achieving true intimacy requires patience. Unexpected revelations in your relating style may change the tone of all your relationships.
SAGITTARIUS:
If you have fallen off the wagon in terms of your exercise, eating or grooming habits, you may get a sudden wake up call with this transit! To be honest, Sagittarius hates routine *anything*, but you know rather intuitively that your physical stamina is an important piece in your quest for wild freedom. Shake up your routines, get out of your rut and explore through intentional movement.
CAPRICORN:
You are all about results, Capricorn but all work and no play makes Jack a dull boy! Uranus in Taurus transit exposes you to the Child Within that has been aching to break free from the strict rules! Your inner child has been longing to climb the trees and catch bullfrogs in the wilderness of your creative potential! It may feel uncomfortable at first, Capricorn, but you will come to realize how regular, unstructured playdates catapult you toward epic success!
AQUARIUS:
Your inner landscape is quaking, ready to burst forth with limitless creative potential, Aquarius, but you have to remember that pouring from an empty cup quenches no thirsts. The Uranus transit in Taurus cracks you open to new experiences of radical self care! Aquarius, despite your association with social networks, you really are an introvert by nature. You may suddenly realize just how important your private life is to you. Uranus, your modern day planetary ruler, innovates your personal care needs and brings an emphasis to maintaining your sanctuary so that you can properly rejuve each time you have given so much of your precious gifts of Self to others.
PISCES:
What are you so nervous about, Pisces? This transit in your 3rd house of communication and local community energizes the gift of gab for you, helping you to spread your message of unconditional love! Expect shifts in your relations with your siblings and/ or your neighbors. This transit is an excellent time to learn about interpersonal communications. Also, make time for regular day trips to a local spa or geothermal hot springs to soothe your nerves (which may get frazzled by thoughts of public speaking...)
Of course, if you would like to discover exactly how this transit will affect you overall, book a Goddesstrology reading. This consultation will uncover specific strategies for working with this transit, illuminating the potential challenges you might encounter during this time, and zero in on support you might have in place, as well.
