.. so inspired by the Soul Union thread on Uranus and karmic relationships... I am posting these snippets on Uranus in Synastry.... What's your experience? I have my Uranus in a fire triangle--- Leo Uranus 8th house trining my Aries Moon/Mars trining my Sagitarrius Ascendant.... My husband of 17 years has a Leo stellium which falls on my Uranus... He asked me to marry him on the third date and we did so 5 months later---in the Catholic church no less...LOL...In my first meeting (initial meeting chart) with D. 12 years ago the Sun/Venus and POF were transiting in Leo conjunct both our Uranuses. In addition Moon/Eros in Aries trined our Uranuses:
General notes about Sun-Uranus connections in synastry:
There is a suddenness to both the beginning and the end of relationships with strong, hard interaspects between the Sun and Uranus. I have found these aspects frequently in the synastry between individuals involved in non-traditional partnerships, including long-distance and extra-marital affairs. In these cases, the intermittent separations from each other can undermine the relationship. In more traditional set-ups, the Sun person may feel that the Uranus person is "on" one day and "off" the next. The Sun person can easily become miffed when the Uranus person seems to be ignoring him or her. Note that since the Sun rules Leo and Uranus rules Aquarius, there is a natural polarity here. The Sun person can easily feel off-center with the Uranus person in the long-term. The Uranus person can most definitely expand the Sun person's horizons, but the Sun person may become frustrated in the face of the Uranus person's somewhat impersonal treatment of him/her.
MOON and URANUS in Synastry
When the Moon in one person's chart forms an aspect to another person's Uranus
When the Moon is conjunct, square, quincunx, or opposition Uranus in synastry, the initial attraction can be exciting in an unconventional way. The Moon person feels a little off-center around the Uranus person, generally in a good way, but it depends greatly on the temperament of the Moon person. The Uranus person somehow enters into the Moon person's life suddenly, and feelings that are stirred and aroused in Moon can be powerful.
Uranus interchart aspects create an electric chemistry that feels exciting and fascinating, and seem to promise a great time when there is an attraction in place. However, there can be a very unsettled feeling between the two people, and marked periods of vacillation between emotional closeness and emotional distance. The Moon person might complain that when he or she is feeling needy or simply desiring closeness, the Uranus person is absent (either physically or emotionally). The Uranus person might complain that the Moon person is too conservative, too domestic, or too somber at times. If the couple lives together, living arrangements are bound to be unusual, and there can be a marked lack of routine that is most unsettling to the Moon person. Even if this is the only hard aspect of Uranus in synastry, or if the couple has an overall sense of stability with one another, the presence of this aspect in their synastry will show up as a tendency to argue over domestic arrangements and routines, as well as a rollercoaster ride on an emotional level. Rebelliousness, especially on the part of the Uranus individual, with regards to conventional routines or domestic arrangements, as well as emotional intimacy, is a theme in this relationship. If hard interaspects of Uranus with personal planets appear elsewhere, the relationship probably started suddenly and developed quickly. This unexpected or erratic quality re-surfaces throughout the relationship as intermittent periods of nervousness and periodic disruptions.
With the sextile or trine, the "unusual" quality of the relationship and domestic affairs is less likely to be felt as disruptive. The couple may delight in the fact that their relationship doesn't fall into the kind of "ruts" or "grooves" that are all too common in partnerships. The couple might enjoy being a little mischievous together, and there can be a pleasing shared sense of humor, a tendency to shake things up every once in a while, and an inclination to do things a little differently as a couple.
VENUS and URANUS conjunctions and squares
These can generate so much interest to the point of enthrallment, and often result in sexual activity between people before they know each other well. This can be a confusing and destabilizing contact in the long term, but these aspects generally inspire initial attraction. When these relationships last, the Uranus person is often seen as inconstant by the Venus person and there can be many ups and downs.
MORE VENUS

This is one indication of a powerful, sudden, and electric attraction. It is often indicative of a situation where one feels "love at first sight". If you get together, a sexual relationship may begin quickly, before you truly get to know each other. A mutual sharing of unusual interests is indicated. The attraction to and fascination with each other may be erratic or variable; or it may subside as suddenly as it started. It is vital that each gives the other freedom in order for this relationship to work. Attempts to give this relationship too much structure can drive a wedge between the two. It is likely that the Venus person will eventually crave more constancy from the Uranus person than he or she is willing to give.
Venus in hard aspect (square, opposition, semi-square, or sesquiquadrate) to other person's Uranus
Electric attraction characterizes this pairing. However, both will have to deal with an inability to truly count on one another over time. The Uranus person may resent any hint that the Venus person wants more of a commitment from, or structure in, the relationship. Affection may be inconstant, or the two may often be separated from one another at key moments. In order for this relationship to work, both parties need to expect the unexpected. This relationship can be an emotional rollercoaster ride, particularly for the Venus person. When the Venus person is feeling especially romantic, the Uranus person may be just out of reach somehow, whether it is a physical reality or takes the form of mental or emotional distancing. This relationship has an erratic, unstable, but exciting quality.
Venus in flowing aspect (sextile, trine) to other person's Uranus
This aspect is a supportive one. Life is naturally exciting when you are with each other. You share some perhaps unusual interests, and you are usually accepting of one another's social life, tastes, and hobbies. There may be something pleasingly unconventional about your set-up. Love doesn't easily become routine for the two of you. The Venus person is romantically drawn to the Uranus person's more unusual and unique qualities. The Uranus person feels appreciated and finds the Venus person particularly charming and attractive. This interchart aspect also encourages creative expression in both partners.
venus-uranus Interesting take....Can be prone to idealization of relationships.
Uranus has been called the mind of god - it represents the perfect system, the machinery of the cosmos. in keeping with this ideal, pure vision, venus-uranus will decide on ideals that the perfect relationship should fulfill and measure their own love life against them - and as real life is never perfect, s/he'll always find it wanting. i think that the major difference between uranian and neptunian idealization is the fact that uranus - an air planet - will idealize the relationship itself, while the emotional, watery neptune usually idealizes the other person. . air thrives on ideas, not emotions, and it is famous for withdrawing when too much closeness threatens. thus uranus, with its cool, crystal-clear vision of perfection, finds it easier to live with the ideal than put it into practice and often the venus-uranus person who severs a relationship because "he doesn't love me right" is in fact escaping from human intimacy..
Something different!
The Uranian principle challenges anything and everything that is Saturnian; that which is conventional, traditional and orthodox
When Uranus touches a planet in a chart it urges those planetary principles to express themselves in the most contrary and deviant kind of way. The Uranian principle will always wish to go by a different route. Since Uranus also symbolises rebellion, when it touches a planet in the chart it often creates a situation where the individual wants to rebel against expressing what that planet normally represents. For example those who have Uranus contacting the Moon may challenge the traditional role of mother. Uranus with Venus or Mars may describe those who challenge the traditional boy meets girl equals marriage scenario.
Wherever Uranus goes, so to goes inflexibility, extremism and lack of co-operation. Planets touched by Uranus seek excitement, freedom and independence. Thus Uranus-Moon may seek emotional independence and domestic freedom; Uranus-Venus may seek social excitement and freedom in relationships.
The purpose behind the Uranian impulse for drastic action is often concerned with awakening and liberating. The planet is also concerned with ‘truth’ and more especially with that quick, blinding intuitive flash of realisation which is so liberating because it cuts through everything else.
