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.

Destiny has dealt you a wild card that can suddenly and unexpectedly connect you to past and future lives and to a secret society. The tone of your life is vastly different than that of most mortals.
