Uranus Stations and Mars Enters Gemini

Aug 19~26

Mars enters Gemini

Never be afraid to speak your mind, we all have a reason. , (Stranger)

There are two important events this week. One is the retrograde station of Uranus (see below). Second is that Mars is entering Gemini at the end of this week (August 19-20th). The reason why this is important is because Mars, which usually spends about 2 months in each sign, will be in Gemini for a full 7 months until March 24. This is because Mars will be in its retrograde phase from October 30 to January 12, which will prolong the catastrophic’s stay in the sign of communications, commuting, and vehicles for an unusually extended period.

Mars is not always terrible. He inspires us (not so much when he is retrograde and square Neptune) and gives us the courage to do things, such as use our voice, speak, or hold onto an idea energetically. We’ll talk about the ways we want to navigate the retrograde phase coming up in October, but just know that wherever Gemini is in your birth chart, it’s going to be a little more raucous activity and challenges for the next 7 years. is about to be filled. month. And maybe a little extra noise. He has the nature of Mars, and Mars will be Mars. Even during the months (October and November) when it squares Neptune (also for an unusually long period of time), and Mars suffers from malaise.

To know more about Mars transit in Gemini, check out this week’s horoscope (see link below). But in general, we can expect a few things from Mars in Gemini:

• Keeping the courage of our voice. Feeling motivated to speak or to speak.

• Communication can be hot or fast. It may be all we can do to keep up with (and understand) the news at hand.

• We do everything we can to keep track of what’s coming out of our own mouths. When Mars is in Gemini, words tickle like this.

• It can feel like we are running too much. Much can be done, but we all have to see that we don’t spread ourselves too thin, or rip ourselves apart.

• It’s good to use this energy for outdoor activities: road trips, camping, hiking the Camino Santiago or wherever your feet dare take you. Mars wants to move and explore the world for the first time when it is in Gemini.

It is the responsibility, yet the individual choice of each of us, to use the light to overcome the work of darkness, because if we do not, the power of the lie is amplified… Choose confrontation wisely. But don’t be afraid to stand up, speak up and speak out against injustice when it’s your time. , John Lewis (across that bridge)

uranus station retrograde

We do not reject our traditions, but we are ready to adapt to changing circumstances when we have to make changes. We are ready to bear the inconvenience of change to achieve a better future. , Barbara Jordan

On Wednesday, August 24, Uranus will stand for its retrograde phase that will last until January 22. This is when Uranus will appear to move backwards through the zodiac, retracing its steps. And as it does so, Saturn will further strengthen its ‘square’ aspect with Uranus next month. Saturn/Uranus presents a conflict between what was and will be; past vs future; The desire for protection, versus the desire for progressive reforms and civil rights.

Recently, Uranus in Taurus seems to be winning on some fronts. And as such it does not escape attention that Uranus is traveling along the Moon’s North Node, an important place associated with our own human efforts toward evolutionary development and progress.

Taurus is the sign of Earth, and everything related to Earth, our home planet. And as Uranus moves through Taurus, it is reminding us of our responsibility to his well-being. We can choose to ignore it, or we can try to work with him to create healthier improvements for the planet and ourselves. Last week a landmark bill was signed into law supporting climate initiatives in the United States. It was a big deal in the current circumstances! Much more still needs to be done. Just know that Uranus in Taurus is not yet exhausted.

During the 5 months when Uranus is in its retrograde phase, much of its experience is being concentrated within. It is a time of internal changes, in which we are either comprehending changes that have happened before, are happening now, or that we are hoping to do in the future, or are expecting to happen in the future.

This is what happens when we ask ourselves:

• How do I feel about these changes that have happened? Am I comfortable with them? And if not, what can I do to adjust to these new shifts and changes, so that I can be more comfortable with them?

• If you find yourself out of your comfort zone, you are more likely to back down at this point. And you ask: Where have things gotten out of control? How did I leave the course? And what do I need to do to get it fixed again?

• If you’re looking forward to making changes in the future, you may be at first accustomed to the idea. Therefore these retrograde periods of Uranus can be a stage of preparation for the changes to come. By internally processing the idea of ​​change, it allows you to be prepared, and perhaps even anticipate changes to come.

At the beginning or end of these retrograde phases, the relationship with the planet is often more pronounced around the stations. And so we’ll see a little more movement, as Uranus spreads its unexpected, unprecedented and unpredictable influence across the globe. Uranus is the authority of energy and electricity, electricity, modern technology and the World Wide Web. It has to do with sudden and unexpected, sometimes inexplicable events; and alternative, often progressive ideas. It is lightning in its manifestation and enlightening in its effects. So no one can tell what might happen at these crucial junctures in the year.
