I’ll tell you what’s going on with me, and you can tell me what’s going on with you, in the comments — if you want 🙂
Uranus is squaring my Sun.
Today it became exact.
Saturn is trining my Sun (again). It’s one degree off.
I remembered this today, wondering why I felt so… stable. Stuck sometimes. Most of the transits that I’m under are transits of movement and restlessness but for the time being, this trine is keeping things together.
Saturn builds. Uranus breaks. So the question becomes: what is being fortified and strengthened vs. what is being liberated, awakened. Are you having similar transits?
Some keywords from Isabel Hickey:
Saturn: caution, restraint, seriousness, justice, stability, patience, responsibility, respect. And then on the negative side: fearfulness, severity, pessimism, rigidity, obstructiveness.
Uranus: originality, genius, idealism, intuition, freedom, inventiveness, pioneer, resourcefulness, individualism, erraticness, detachment, over-impulsiveness, irresponsibility, combativeness.
How to do both? How to live with these two transits in one body, one life? And it’s not just those. I’ve got other ones too. All the slow-movers are affecting personal planets of mine, or my angles. All hands on deck. Plus knowing that the Uranus transit will be in affect much longer than the Saturn trine.
Sometimes it feels like everything is falling apart. But then it falls back together and becomes solid again. This cycle of regeneration can be tiring and sometimes I can’t help but just… notice it, feeling powerless to chain it down. Sometimes it feels like all I can do is observe.
What is the highest manifestation of a Uranus transit?
Robert Hand says: “Don’t suppress the energy of Uranus, deal with it.”
What I’m feeling so far, if you are under a similar transit: those things that hold you back, that you think are holding you back, break through them. Break free. And I don’t mean in self-destructive ways (because of course that would be “bad” Uranus ha!) but true liberation from what is wrong in your life.
And this: are you strong enough to keep what you want to keep, despite the rebel within.
And to KNOW what is worth keeping. Using that Uranian intuition to KNOW. Not to just… run. Because your body tells you RUN.
I was just listening to one of my current favorite songs, wishing I could jog again but I know I shouldn’t. My knees aren’t great and recently had an injury and… jogging is just not something that suits my body. But I heard this song and I wished for the treadmill 🙂 not even the open road but the machine (which feels more like Uranus to me than the open road).
So I’ll be searching for ways, blogging through this hopefully, sharing the changes and revelations.
Freedom from tyranny. Self-imposed or otherwise. You know, that’s how I view it the most. With Uranus in my 8th now. Freedom from tyranny. From the past. From the 8th House goblins.
Was talking to a friend about sexual healing and I GET IT. I get that it is 100% possible to heal. You can become more you. The you that you always were. The you are supposed to be. The you that you are! All of this is more than possible. It’s a promise.
Love, MP

OK I LIKE the Saturn Trine Sun for you right now.
It’s good strong strength to support what YOU want / need to do.
Not frittering away energies trying to swim or keep afloat against strong current.
It supports YOUR TRIP.
I love that. Good stuff.
The Uranus / Sun.
I don’t have my Planets in Transit book with me. But it seems to me, I had conjunct exactly. Not the square, BUT
It was an 8th house situation too.
I had much coming at me at the time, not all of it mine. Which made things rather nebulous.
But the one thing that sticks out in my mind, I bought a health supplement from a friend. It had ephedra in it.
He was doing great with the stuff, but I had no idea what ephedra even was at the time.
I wound up on the floor somewhere in my hotel room, I was not at home.
I was away for the weekend. It was something I will never forget. Relaxing! :O
I remembered my book saying something about health issues. Heart. And THAT WAS what happened.
0Âş Gemini, and it was retrograding back and forth, well the last phase clipped me. Summer, grand cross in fixed, the whole ball of wax. It was a trip.
Granted I’ve got Uranus in the 6th right NOW, and I usually come at things from a nutritional point of view. It’s what I study. I’d still say be wary of trying a health thing if you’ve got an issue or injury that you KNOW you haven’t quite healed yet..
Knee, Jog, Treadmill….. See? IDK about that.
I DO like freedom from tyranny of the past, because sometimes we inherit some not so good stuff from our family. Who needs THAT?
But remember Barbara Hand Clow’s Chiron book?
Turning Saturnian energy into a rainbow bridge of energy, with the transformation of Uranian and Chironic energy?
She’s got a new book out, here we go, WAIT FOR IT:
Astrology and the Rising of Kundalini: The Transformative Power of Saturn, Chiron, and Uranus
OK now stick THAT in your 8th house and what do ya get?
See?
Well, I don’t have the BOOK, so I DON’t KNOW EXACTLY what you get, but it sounds like it’s pretty 8th house to me. She’s usually got some pretty in depth stuff to say about 8th house transits. Maybe you want to throw Chiron into this mix and take it higher vibrationally. You’ve got a few trines here.
I mean I KNOW you’ve got other transits, but this can be some really powerful otherworldly stuff.
It’s dimensional. MAGICAL. Spiritual. I’m NOT kidding RADAR LOVE kinda thing.
Anyhoo I don’t know if you have the book or not, I got her Chiron book the minute it came out I couldn’t wait to figure this stuff out, but that was a long time ago. I may not have done real well with the lesson. Apparently.
Well, it was just on another level. I thought I was going crazy, but no, there was a thing going on. I don’t know if I would have chosen it, but I probably wouldn’t trade it either.
I think the situations it brought, there was no language to explain to someone who hasn’t dealt with it yet. Who would believe it? SO yeah. Reading thru and thinking hmm yeah right… wow.. as if.
Heavy stuff, but what I will say too, this isn’t stuff you can control either. Not all of it. I think that’s what’s so amazing about it. Once you figure out the stuff you’re leaving behind you, let go of the wheel just a bit, there’s some really surreal stuff to be had and studied.
Now I just take things like oh, well here we go again. It’s recognizable happenings, but not mundane at all.
I wish this book was out a while back, it’s pretty new, I like her work very much.
I saw this book and thought you might like this cookie with your milk
>^:^<
Do you really promise? I need to hear this right now. I have such a strong Saturn signature but Uranus is really pummeling me lately and I have totally taken an irresponsible turn. It keeps me awake at night and my anxiety is acting up. But at the same time I’m so tired of hiding who I am. I feel like I’ve tricked myself and others into believing a certain serious me is all that exists. It’s like the Universe is saying….’nope’.
That being said I need to learn to harness the Uranus energy better. What I have been experiencing with it is pure spontaneous action and disruption. It’s like I’m not thinking AT ALL.
Good luck with your transits. It sounds like you’re handling it way better than me. LOL
You are accountable of course 🙂 You have to do the work.
T Y.
I have Leo 8th house, Uranus.
I like what you said about uranus in the 8th.
Freedom from tyranny and past 8th house goblins.
A lifetime goal.
Also about the keeping what you want, strength and the rebel.
Enjoying your blog:)
Learning a lot.
Grateful ❤
Thank you, tg. I’m glad you are here xo
Yeah. I hear you man. Same transits, same feelings about transformation. I have the words but I feel weighed down but something I have to learn to rise against. Learned I have psychosomatic foot pains whenever im around particular stressful situations that make me feel fearful about being judged or overpowered. Pluto is in there.
Mars in libra is making me crabbier. I’m at the edge of creation. That point where I can’t take living the same way I used to and I’ve already changed in so many ways I don’t even realize. Im building my fortress brick by brick and that takes a lot of time and concerted effort. Nothing is moving quickly for me but its moving.
Saturn has been leading hte way in my 3rd house. During saturns heavy moments I learned to say yes to life. I’m learning now that I really have to believe in my life and my ability to live it. I have to let go of what everybody else has decided about me but that is so hard. For some it isn’t but my placements are overly attached to other people’s opinions. Mercury/Venus opposite neptune, I really see myself through others. Uranus square sun I’m learning how to see myself and decide who I am and I freakin looooove it!!!
Neptune is exact on my 7th house cusp and I feeeeel the worlds emotions so intensely now. I feel heavy energies, I’m feeling someone’s painful tears in my eyes and throat and its overwhelming. Its hard enough to sort out me vs them (anyone else) without that problem.
Ah yes, Charlotte – much of what you write here sounds very familiar to me 🙂 same transits 🙂
