Chapter 9. Uranus in Your Chart

Astrologically speaking, Uranus is the force of liberation. It's no accident that Uranus was rediscovered in the period between the American and French revolutions with their emphasis upon liberty. Uranus is where you change unexpectedly and are surprised. It's where you are unusual, eccentric and extraordinary. Uranus represents the new ideas that you are open to and where you are disinclined toward cohesion.

Uranus is also a symbol for electro-magnetic energy and, naturally enough Uranium. Uranus represents disruption. It only takes one brief flash of uranium to make a big boom. The root word of Uranus is "Anu," the first supreme being in Sumerian cosmology who changed the course of the world by affecting mankind's evolution. You can tell that this planet is trouble just by the way that it is pronounced.

Uranus in Aries

ASSERTIVE LIBERATION

It is important that you free yourself from restrictive head trips. You have a measure of daring and courage and can do it. It's possible that you can experience quick and unsettling outbursts of unusual energies. You get a 7 year itch to be an impetuous little devil. Steer clear of political fanaticism. Feel free to blaze a new technological trail.

Uranus Biquintile Neptune

LIBERATION BRINGS OUT TALENT FOR FANTASY UNUSUAL INSPIRATIONS

Idealism colors your lifestyle more strongly than you realize. In an instant you can cultivate a new interest in the unusual. If you chronically space out or feel indifferent, chances are good that you need new friends, new spiritual practices and new food combinations. Develop your sixth sense. Take a psychic development class, or an intuition workshop or whatever.

TIP: Share insights, realizations and revelations.

A tantalizing life is yours. Guard against dishonesty. Combat foo foo. Rebel against trickery and deception. Neutralize fanaticism. It might not be a bad idea to phase through a 12 step program.

Uranus Undecile Chiron

LIBERATION MODIFIES MENTORING TEACHINGS ARE FREED

Chiropractic care can give you a decisive edge. Information will also heal you. Participate in seminars. Create some of your own. Make the most of learning techniques. Learn things with your mind as well as your body.

TIP: Develop your sense of body electric through acupuncture and acu-pressure.

It is not your thing to be a rebel so much as it is to be a maverick. There is a subtle difference. You do not need to react to authority so much as you have to establish your own unique kind of authority. In time, with a lot of work on yourself, you can become a seasoned professional and even a great master.
