Uranus Retrograde Meaning
Uranus retrograde in the natal chart is common to 40% of people. As with Neptune and Pluto, it is not considered as harmful or significant as having an inner planet retrograde, like Venus retrograde, which affects only 7% of the population. However, Uranus retrograde does have a noticeable influence with the rebellious and crazy nature of the planet being enhanced.
It suggests that in a past life, you may have caused much stress and danger to yourself and loved ones because of your rebellious actions. Experimenting with radical methods and ideas may have caused a crop to fail or a loss in battle. Perhaps your selfish need to stand out and be yourself brought shame and loss to you and your family.
Retrograde motion also internalizes the disruptive nature of Uranus. In this life you may feel the shock on the inside as stress, restlessness and impulsiveness. Internal instability can lead to anxiety disorders, spasms, neurotic behavior or rapid personality changes.
Uranus retrograde by position and aspect shows the areas of life, or the personality traits and behaviors, which specifically need extra development. The optimum Uranus nature is intuitive, ingenious and original. A healthy Uranus is eccentric yet comfortable in self-expression. The aim is to be yourself while not upsetting the status quo.
Uranus retrograde in your chart could show as abruptness or egotism. Erratic behavior or unreliability that holds you back. Such traits could well have been an ongoing problem hindering success over many incarnations. Events or relationships will keep reinforcing the problem area this life, especially during Uranus retrograde phases, until you make the necessary internal changes.
Uranus retrograde in transit is a regular cycle lasting 155 days every year in which the planet moves four degrees backwards through the zodiac. This is a time of inner change in response to external changes in your life. Aspects that Uranus retrograde makes to your chart will give more detail about the type of change and the areas of life affected.
You may have anticipated a major change in your life or tried to initiate change but nothing has happened. In this case, transiting Uranus retrograde will induce the internal changes in attitude or behaviors which are necessary to make the desired change possible.
Often the changes you seek are to allow more personal freedom. Whatever the case, Uranus retrograde lets you process things internally before you manifest the external change once Uranus turns direct.
Another possibility is that you have been disruptive and rebellious, trying to force radical change. Whether your revolution was based on ignorance or the innocence of youth, Uranus retrograde will bring higher self-awareness and insights about the error of your ways. A period of less chaotic internal changes should follow
Uranus stations retrograde August 3, 2017 at 28°31′ Aries. Uranus makes no major aspects apart from Uranus trine North Node at this time. The major aspect is Jupiter square Pluto and that will have influence over Uranus retrograde 2017. We will discuss that and a minor fixed star within orb of Uranus.
Interpretations of Uranus trine North Node are fairly vague but it should make it easier to adapt to changing conditions. You may seek change in your life that turns out to be positive. Opportunities that do arise will point you in the direction that is best for you, or your souls destined path.
At the mundane level expect Uranus retrograde trine North Node to result in a shift of the mass consciousness toward socialism and away from the extreme right. This shift may not be observable until after Uranus stations direct. There should be less protectionism in favor of free trading. Also expect a more liberal or open-minded view of immigration, refugees and other social issues like human rights and gender equality.
Fixed star Vertex at 28°05′ Aries is in fact the Andromeda Galaxy. It is the nearest major galaxy to the Milky Way and is approaching us at over 100 kilometers per second. It is predicted to directly collide with the Milky Way in about 4 billion years. The fate of the Earth and the Solar System from the Andromeda–Milky Way collision is presently unknown.
Fixed star Vertex rules the eyes, pineal and pituitary glands. Its Mars-Moon nature can cause neurosis, psychosis or obsession, all problems deep within from the past, personal or collective. Well-aspected it gives a healer of these illnesses.
Andromeda Constellation bestows purity of thought, virtue, honor, eminence and dignity, but also battles with chimerical fears and a tendency to become easily discouraged. It gives love between husband and wife and reconciles adulterers. Badly placed in mundane charts it can portend earthquakes.
Jupiter square Pluto makes you want to succeed, and succeed big-time. It could be a pet project or in your career that you feel this intense drive to reach the top. Success, power and influence are all possible but without some care there will be a price to pay. Obsessive and compulsive behavior will not only cause relationship problems at home but can also earn you powerful enemies.
Religious mania or extremism are possible outcomes if you remain single-minded and self-righteous. Instead of narrowing your field of view it is better to gain a wider and more comprehensive knowledge. Travel and mixing with people from different backgrounds will help you avoid any chance of bigotry, xenophobia or other forms of intolerance and ignorance.
A safer way to satisfy your powerful urge to experience life to the fullest is to explore the limits of some societal standards or beliefs. You can still stay within the law of most lands while enjoying some cultural taboos.
These mad behaviors are particularly relevant when associated with Uranus retrograde. This aspect could also exacerbate fears of death and destruction by cataclysm, triggered by fixed star Vertex conjunct Uranus retrograde 2017. Psychotic behavior linked to Uranus retrograde and the fixed star would also be exaggerated by Jupiter square Pluto.
