Uranus governs sudden unexpected events, earthquakes, revolution, rebellion, genius, individuality, technology, the future. Its job is to shake us out of our ruts and routines so that the things in our lives that no longer work to our benefit fall out of our experience, making room for the new.
On a global scale, the effects of Uranus entering a new sign can be devastating. On March 11, 2011, when it entered Aries, a 9.0 quake hit Japan, which triggered a tsunami that caused that meltdown of nuclear reactors at Fukushima. During the planet’s first brief journey through Taurus, the worst wildfires in California’s history erupted. More than 8500 fires burned nearly 2 million acres.
On July 7, it enters Gemini, where it will be until May 22, 2033. The planet of the unpredictable takes 84 years to circle the zodiac and spends between 7-8 years in each sign. As it leaves Taurus, where it has been since 2018, technology should make some significant leaps, you may experience unusual paranormal events, and sudden, unexpected change is the name of the game. It will retrograde back into Taurus from November 7, 2025 to April 25, 2026.
Uranus was last in Gemini from 1941-1948. This period had the US entering WWII. Before that, from 1858-1866, during the Uranus transit in Gemini, we had the U.S. Civiil War. And before that, from 1774-1782, the transit included the American Revolutionary War. Given trump’s recent bombing of Iran, we may be seeing the influence already of Uranus in Gemini. Let’s see what happens on July 7th or shortly afterward.
To find out where this transit will occur in your chart, go here. If you don’t know your time of birth, use 12 noon. It’s best if you know your time of birth because that sets up the houses and you’ll be able to see which house the planet will move through. But without the correct houses, you can see the angle that Uranus will make to your other natal planets.
