What is your experience with Uranus going retrograde?Of course it will be different for each person as it will touch different natal planets, but the generic description is that it leads to changes (i.e. leaving a job, a bad relationship, etc.). Is this how it is manifesting in your life? Do you find it rather empowering, or restricting? (both of which can intensify a desire for change) IP: Logged |

Yes it has brought some changes. My husband and I moved back to our home country. We have new jobs. I"m now pursuing a different career and I'm going to be a mother.Changes mean that my life is now consisted of a lot of "moving parts" instead of one united block. It is unstable and new, and while I'm loving it, there is a lot of work that we have to do to sort things out. It's been a good transit so far. IP: Logged |

aww is it going to go rx soon? I hope not, it has not been a good influence on my Neptune in Capricorn...it has eased off my Neptune a bit, and things are beginning to get better. IP: Logged |

http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=IkO5VyY78xQ I really do not like it when planets square my Neptune in Capricorn. Here is an interpretation "You tend to prefer moving to being still, and yet unusual circumstances may surround your life now and can interfere with your ability to move forward. You may become mired in complexities and uncertainties that restrict your freedom while not having a clear idea as to whether these problems are real, or if they are, what their source is." Ah, no more of this!! It's like taking steps forward and then falling with my face in some mud! I have Neptune in Capricorn house 8. 14 degrees. Though Uranus has backed off of my Neptune a bit, I've been able to make more progress lately. And now with the moon squaring my Neptune...becoming an eclipse...it's been quite a frustrating and draining week for me. IP: Logged |

Uranus goes retograde for 5 months.every year. Remember there are people outside who are having a flat line existance for many years. so, without aspects I assume uranus goes retograde does not hold any real power. unless it goes retogrades in your progressed chart then yes it might point out some major changes. We can say a trs.retograde Uranus will make you examine your need for freedom & change in whichever area it covers. Because Uranus is an outward planet, looking inward might not appeal to him and that might cause more erratic behaviour... IP: Logged |

Yeah I wanna say Uranus was exactly squaring my Neptune when I got dumped. At first I wasn't coping very well at all. I don't want to go through that again. I guess with this transit, my dreams with someone were broken. But throughout the relationship I gave up on certain intimate things with him. There were things he wouldn't do for me, I wanted it to work so bad, that I gave up on some of my own intimate dreams, and live with that the rest of my life to be with him. So now that we are done I have some of my dreams back. I realized this more than ever today thinking about how this transit has affected me. IP: Logged |

sis,Thank you, and yes since it's retrograde for half of the time, the key is in the aspects. Stawr, The square to Neptune has been causing the issues, for sure. How did you survive the Eclipse? Hope all is well. For me, Uranus is conjuncting natal Jupiter in 2H and will be until 2017 while going retrograde and direct a few times, so I guess I'll either get unexpectedly rich or unexpectedly poor IP: Logged |

I leading up to the eclipse I was having some power struggles. I had to admit and realize now that I'm single I have to buy groceries more often now that I'm not constantly going on food dates with ex. Being stubborn and slightly busy, I tried to go longer with out buying food. And my blood sugar was going up and down like a roller coaster. Which is pretty draining. I have a demanding school week coming up, so I finally admitted that I have to get groceries more. So that's the intense stuff I went through a week before the eclipse happened. Oh yeah the eclipse exactly squared my Neptune. I was not emotional yesterday. I think I got a lot of it out of my system months in advance. That Uranus conjunct Jupiter sounds interesting. Conjunctions are one of those things that could go either way. IP: Logged |

Wow, this does sound interesting. I'd think a fundamental change in your relationships, the way you approach them, and the way you see yourself in them. Having Venus and Mars in Aries 7H probably means you are very outgoing and naturally seek out relationships and partnerships. Are you usually the initiator? Uranus transiting over these planets will probably get you to re-evaluate how you choose your partners. IP: Logged |

It sounds like you've been embracing the energy before it 'hit', so this could have made the eclipse less emotional than it would have been. Self-awareness for the win IP: Logged |

SaturnFan, Astro.com doesn't show Uranus going retrograde on April 8th. I wonder if it's an error in their data, or what source Cafe Astrology used.Anyway, I went back and looked at when Uranus was retrograde in October, 2013. Transiting Uranus squared natal Uranus. That's when I suddenly lost a job working for someone else, which turned out to be a great blessing because it opened up a new chapter professionally and initiated the most creative and inspiring period of my life. And I'm now happily self-employed. This particular Uranus square was like having a double dose of transiting Uranus in my 10H, which turned out to be exactly the push I needed. By the way, this was a case of my siding with Saturn and holding on to the security of the status quo, so Uranus manifested as a disruptive change. But, the transition turned out to be easy. I found out that by cooperating with my inner self and finally "playing my note," the universe supported me financially and helpers appeared when I needed them. This is how it's meant to be. By each of us playing our note and manifesting our gifts, the universe advances as we advance and therefore, we are supported in turn, if that's clear. IP: Logged |

Wouldnt say really that I am outgoing. I like men more to take the lead but I do lead sometimes if it will help me get to the goal. I can be more shy than outgoing. IP: Logged |

hi peony, you're right - I just checked a few other sources and it looks like it will go retro in late July. Love your story about your Uranus square Uranus transit. You're living the dream! "the universe advances as we advance and therefore, we are supported in turn" - very well said, and people need to have more faith in this (myself included), instead of clinging to a sense of security and suppressing their potential. quote: Originally posted by intuitivefish: Wouldnt say really that I am outgoing.

Interesting, thank you for the feedback! What aspects do your Venus and Mars make with other planets, if you don't mind me asking? IP: Logged |

hi intuitivefish,So the shyness you are describing must be coming from your Pisces placements. Maybe the Uranus transit over your Aries Mars and Venus later this year will either urge you to be more outgoing than usual or send very outgoing people your way IP: Logged |
