I'm telling you guys, WATCH OUT, please. Uranus causes job losses. I should have been prepared, but like always it caught me by suprise. I was sitting pretty, thinking I'd have a job until a July but I was wrong.

I'm currently trying to hold back the tears after jumping up and down for joys for the past few days. Why does the universe always do this to me? However this time it's no fault of my own, messy office politics is to blame. This is the fifth job that's ended for me in a shocking way.

sorry to hear about the disruptions youre experiencing, that does sound uranian, but it is trining your venus mars which should be a good thing!

ps. saturn is approaching your NN which seems to indicate that you are being pressured to fulfill that nodal summons...bigtime!!

I don't believe in cause and effect in Astrology. I believe that things happen to us that are in synchronicity with our transits. I don't believe that things happen to us because of the transits. Like one astrologer said "We rule our stars...the stars don't rule us"

I believe that we shouldn't be afraid of transits. They are just heavenly body-earthly body connections that correlate with our soul lessons.

Transiting Jupiter square Uranus is one of those "free spirit",progressive,freedom transits.

Look at you, you're an accomplished novelist. You could be the next JK Rowling and even go beyond what she's done. All that is up to you and not to transit heavenly body alignments in connection to the heavenly bodies in your chart.

You have the power to make your life a success,and you will.

This is the Solar Fire interpretation for transiting Jupiter square Natal Uranus:

During this transit you tend to feel irritable and frustrated as you want to break free of past restrictions. Rebellion can be a major problem, particularly if you feel that something or someone is standing in your way. The trouble is that you have your sights set unrealistically high and lack your normal powers of discrimination. Life takes on a reckless quality as you crave excitement. It would be better if you could make the most of new and exciting opportunities while showing some restraint and wisdom.

but, you don't have that transit applying. It's separating by over 1 degree. Therefore, I don't believe that it figures into what's going on right now with you.

You have applying transits that are going on

I look at applying transits only

Orbs
Conjunction,Opposition,Square,Trine - 3 degrees
Semisquare,Sesquiquadrate - 1 degree
Quincunx,Semisextile - 1 degree
parallel,contraparallel - 30 minutes

Transiting Jupiter is parallel your Uranus with 11 minutes of arc applying. That's a time for independence,innovation,being a free spirit,being progressive. Keywords - expansion of independence,liberation,innovation.

Solar Fire's interpretation for transiting Jupiter conjunct Uranus....parallel is similar
You may currently feel like life is like a roller coaster ride, full of surprising twists and turns which offer both fear and excitement. This is a time when you are willing to try new things. In fact you may feel that you have no choice. Something is compelling you to take risks that you never thought you would. And woe betide anyone who stands in the way of your new-found push for freedom. You want to be left to your own devices, even though they may seem odd to those have known and loved you. They would be wise not to stand in your way. However, you would also be wise to show some restraint when appropriate. A complete disregard of rules and regulations can prove dangerous in some situations. Opportunities for travel, study, technical, esoteric and scientific pursuits may arise.

Transiting Jupiter is trining your Pluto with 23 minutes of arc applying. This is mainly about expansion of intensity,focus,power. This transit can indicate potential for wealth,success because of belief in one's personal power. This could be like focusing on the positive,working hard on it,and it will manifest. That's what's called Law of Attraction.

Here is Solar Fire interpretation for transiting Jupiter trine Natal Pluto
You strike the right balance between confidence and persistence required to propel you towards your goals in life. You are confident and feel powerful and in control of your life, and others notice. Therefore you may find that career promotion and recognition play a prominent role right now. It is a good time to make the most of any opportunities for advancement that come your way, as your judgement should be sound.

Transiting Saturn is square your Neptune with 1'11 orb right now. I think this is probably the transit that is reflecting what's going in your current psychological state right now. It's mainly about structuring,restricting,limiting idealism,inspiration. There could be a possibility of anxiety,depression which can be connected to insecurity,stress. It is also a known astrological configuration for health problems.

Here is Solar Fire interpretation for transiting Saturn square Natal Neptune
This is a time of confusion, lethargy and possibly depression. It is as if everything has taken on a dull sheen. If you were a writer you would call it the experience of the writer's block. Rather than force matters, take some time to contemplate your life in a gentle, reflective light. By the end of the transit you should have a renewed sense of where you are heading, even though right now that seems highly unlikely.

Transiting Saturn is sextile Uranus with 1'57 orb applying right now.
This is mainly about the opportunity to structure,discipline independence,innovation. It can be a nice transit to have in regards to putting your insights to good use so that it is in manifestation.

Here is Solar Fire's interpretation for it
You now have the opportunity to balance a healthy sense of responsibility with the ability to embrace new and exciting concepts. Areas of your life which may have become a little staid are now enlivened. Whereas in the past you may have experienced obstacles to moving in new directions, you now have an understanding that breakthroughs are imminent.

Transiting Uranus is conjunct your South Lunar Node with 2 degrees applying. This can indicate sudden connections with others from the past (could even be a pastlife) which can involve lessons with independence,innovation. A time to make changes.

Solar Fire's Interpretation for transiting Uranus conjunct Natal South Lunar Node
It's time to say goodbye to old habits, old friends, colleagues or anything which is part of your past. You are paving the way for a new path in life, but first you have to make room. You are currently in the elimination part of a major cycle in your life. It is time to clear out your cupboards, metaphorically speaking. This way you make room for new experiences. It is also possible that rather than you taking the initiative, you experience a sudden change of circumstances which feels forced on you. Remember that as one door closes, another eventually opens.

Transiting Pluto opposing your Moon with 2'38 applying. This indicates that intensity,power,transformation is at odds with your emotional nature. This can be a time of having your emotional world being transformed. It can be about letting go,releasing emotional habit patterns that are not of good use to you.

Here is Solar Fire's intepretation transiting Pluto oppose Natal Moon
Someone near and dear, probably a woman, is creating emotional turbulence in your life right now. If you are not careful you find yourself drawn into an intense battle for emotional supremacy at this time. Emotional blackmail is often a key phrase for this time. Although difficult it is better to remain as calm as possible and try not to react to your loved one's psychological games. It is also possible to lose someone close to your heart during this transit. If this is the case it is better to let grief follow its natural course.

Please remember that none of these transits are causing things in your life. They are in synchronicity with the things that are going on in your life. They are lessons that help with your soul growth. You have the free will to choose to learn from those lessons or not whether they are hard or easy. If you learn these lessons well, there can be great rewards. This is said to be especially so with Saturn transits.

We make our own futures. The heavenly body alignments don't make our futures. That is something that we should all remember.

Therefore, it makes no sense to blame stuff on transits nor to be afraid of them. They are just lessons that we are given to learn. They help us our souls to evolve.

no planets are evil. Not even the traditional "malefics", Saturn and Mars.

I checked your Cosmobiological Transits which I am starting to prefer when looking at events. I am becoming skeptical of transits involving houses and house rulers. I am also doubting trines,sextiles as event-oriented aspects. I believe that they are psychological condition aspects like Cosmobiologists believe.

In Cosmobiology, only hard aspect transits within 1 degree are looked at in regards to events.
Midpoints are used. That also includes transiting midpoints to natal midpoints

I am only looking at midpoints that involve personal planets and points

I am looking at applying transits

orbs:
Conjunction,Opposition,Square - 1'00
Semisquare,Sesquiquadrate - '30

Because I am looking at it from Cosmobiological event perspective, I am only going to list the event interpretations from Ruth Brummond's Rulebook.

for example:

I give the interpretation for Mercury/Uranus midpoint conjunct Venus, and then I give the interpretation for Mercury/Uranus conjunct Mars.

Tension in a relationship. Upsets over an association. Disruptive contacts.

that involves

Frame of mind. inner life. To be among the public. Hour and minute.

your north node is at 26 virgo and saturn is not on it yet, but it has been hovering near it for some time now and will actually get to it before too long. as the pointer which heads you in your chosen direction, NN is very significant, and when saturn is applying to or aspecting it it will feel like your "false" roads are falling out from under you. in other words you are feeling pressure (from yourself, mind you) to get on with your writing and not waste energy on "filler" jobs? which sometimes takes the form of having your job "taken" away...
