EXPECT THE UNEXPECTED !!!

URANUS - the planet known as the great awakener, the rebel, the planet of intuition and the sixth sense and sudden and unexpected change as well as revolutions and breakthroughs, radicals and radical ideas and behavior, the ruler of astrologers and inventors, and the planet closely associated with electricity, technology and electronics - begins its retrograde journey for 2014 today, July 21st, at 10:53 PM EDT at 16 degrees 30 minutes Aries - do I hear a loud collective groan of  UH-OHHHHH ??? !!!! ... where you find Uranus in your individual natal chart is usually where you tend to do the unusual and break from the norm ... this planet, which takes 84 years to make a complete journey through the 12 signs of the Zodiac, most certainly marches to the beat of a different drum !!!! ... and if you know an Aquarius born individual, you probably understand this very well !!!

Uranus is the planet of the unconscious, and even during a retrograde journey that is where its energy will be most highly concentrated ... however, during a retrograde period the energy will tend to be even more pronounced ... people born with Uranus retrograde in their natal chart - and there are a lot of us out there since Uranus retrogrades for about 5 months out of each year - are frequently found on the forefront when it comes to change and actions that are oriented towards the future and on the cutting edge ... the desire to reform or rebel is perhaps even stronger during a retrograde period than when Uranus is direct ... if you've had a natal chart run and know where 16 degrees back down to 12 degrees Aries falls, then you might get an idea in what area of your life this retrograde will most likely play out depending on what house or houses in which it retrogrades  ...

During a transiting Uranus retrograde, it's time for each one of us to ask ourselves what changes do we see happening in the world and ask ourselves how we are contributing to or working against them ... it is very important during the retrograde period to look at the connections between ones own personal changes and those that are occurring around the world ... how are they connected and do we need to find a better way to do that ??? ... are we helping mankind move forward through positive growth or are we being counterproductive through our rebellion to assert our individuality, independence and freedom and ultimately causing more problems than we solve ???

Uranus, currently almost halfway through its transit in the sign of Aries - where the lesson of this energy is awakening through doing - has gotten no further than 16 degrees of Aries - it began its complete transit through Aries on March 11th, 2011 ... It has been literally slowing down and sending out its often disruptive vibrational energy at 16 degrees of Aries since June 30th creating a lot of tension and irritation on many levels no doubt !!! ... the Universe has simply been making not only Aries born - who may especially feel the impact of this retrograde - but everyone aware there WILL BE CHANGE which NEEDS to be and MUST be addressed while Uranus transits Aries !!! ... it takes Uranus roughly 7 years to completely transit through each sign of the zodiac - it will not complete its full transit through Aries technically, due to retrograde periods, until March 2019 ... there could be a lot of us who experienced tension during this past week, especially today and yesterday ... in some cases there may have been a sudden and unexpected change take place out of the blue ... or even a confrontational situation arose we were not expecting ... over the next few days, until the retrograde energy settles in, there could be instances of rebellion, disruption, explosions and confrontations  ... Uranus remains retrograde until December 21st ...

Aquarius born individuals, this is your yearly period to review and reflect on what is going on in your life and see how you might make some positive changes ... you may especially be paying attention to what has transpired in your lives since Uranus finished its last retrograde journey and resumed direct motion back on December 17th, 2013... along with Aquarius born individuals, we ALL will most likely have something illuminated from our unconscious that needs to be dealt with and most certainly requires a necessary change ... but will we willingly do it or have the change forced upon us ???

So now we all have this burning (Aries) drive turned inward urging us to move forward with purpose, to be different, to be independent, to have our individual freedom, to do things suddenly and unexpectedly and to be downright rebellious (Uranus) !!! ... it will be interesting to see how this plays out in our lives as well as on a global scale ... One thing is for sure - when we are dealing with the sudden, unexpected, disruptive, evolutionary energy of Uranus, which can lead to something highly innovative and ahead of its time making it necessary for us to learn to EXPECT THE UNEXPECTED ... so the ultimate question becomes - will you become a rebel with or without a specific cause ???
