(Sincere apologies for the long post)I'm now experiencing the last pass of Transit Uranus conjunct my natal Venus (26 Aries conjunct 24 Aries Saturn). And, I gotta say, it's been a big absolute nothin'. I've reached far and wide to open doors to other career possibilities (Venus rules my Tenth and Third houses), I've taken risks to put myself in the way of opportunity, I've been open to whatever change the Universe wants to throw at me, and so far it's been same ol', same ol', more of the same. (And the Uranus transit to my Saturn - ruler of my natal 6th - was also surprisingly quiet. But I just chalked that up to Saturn being a generational planet.) Very confusing because my chart has responded to Uranus transits in the past. When Uranus crossed my Descendant in May 2000- also square transit Sun/Venus/Jupiter/Saturn - my mother suddenly passed away at the age of 50. When Uranus was conjunct my Pisces Mercury my partner and I were house-hunting in Paris (decided not to buy, though). When Uranus was conjunct my 00 Aries Sun/North Node (and opposite my 01/02 Libra Jupiter/Uranus) we were preparing for a move to Switzerland, a move that Tr Saturn shut down when he moved opposite my Sun/Node, conjunct my Jupiter/Uranus. (This was also before that Pluto square Uranus transit of 2011-2012 t-squared my partner's Libra Sun and upended our lives. Yikes!) Now with Uranus on my Venus? (shrug) Again, the last pass is this weekend - with my birthday on March 20th; Solar Return and Lunar Return on the same day; Solar Return Uranus conjunct Solar Return MC, SR Sun in SR 9th, SR Moon in SR 10th - so we'll see if the Transit moon acts as a trigger or something. Who knows? Oh, and my Progressed chart angles just changed to 00 Cardinal signs (Libra Ascendant, Cancer MC) and my Progressed Moon is in an applying conjunction to my natal Descendant in June) Anyone have any thoughts on their own Uranus transits they'd like to share?

No changes connected to your love life? no flings? no meeting someone that makes you feel alive and brings electricity to your soul?I wonder if saturn is restricting uranu's ability to create change or influencing the transit so the changes are gradual or more internal (e.g strengthening your self worth, changes in your value system). Venus is about our self worth too and values and with saturn conjunct venus and tr Uranus hitting that it could be about strengthening your self worth or a change in your value system may take place or it could be as simple as you feeling more independent and needing relationships less or wanting more space in your relationships.

Thank you for the reply. And apologies if this is in the wrong forum (I get so nervous posting anything that I sometimes just panic and click) 😂As for relationships and such, no, no big changes though, since I know so few people - and most of them for a decade or more - there aren't many relationships to change. Since Venus also rules my 3rd House (as well as my 10th), I have seen a sudden change in neighbors. But when it comes to Uranus, I just figured the changes would be a bit more earthshaking than so-and-so-I-don't-really-know moving down the block. 🤷🏼♂️ Good point on Saturn. Though when Transit Saturn was opposite that natal Venus/Saturn in 2012, there was NO hesitation at ALL when it came to Saturn changing everything up. lol Again, Uranus is exactly conjunct that Venus this weekend so, hey, it's Uranus! Who knows WHAT will happen? And then it's on to my 3 Taurus Moon! And thank you, again, for the reply. ❤️ IP: Logged |

There may be something to that.I've also heard that Venus tends to soften (or even mitigate) the worst aspects of whatever planet it conjuncts in a natal chart. Not sure if that's true or not, but I do have a strong work ethic when it comes to my job (I'm a writer) and the relationships/friendships I have are very long and reliable. So, as far as I see it, that conjunction has thus far produced very few of the negative aspects I read about when it comes to Saturn in Aries.

I feel you. But what about like I said, have you noticed your values changing since Venus is the natural ruler of 2nd house or you becoming more creative since Venus rules your 3rd house? Have you noticed issues with self-esteem resurfacing so you can work through them? IP: Logged |

"...restricting uranu's ability to create change..." Yes. That was great insight. I think you may be onto something. I sense it anyway. I am very much in tune to Uranus. IP: Logged |

No, not really. My values have stayed strong and constant - Taurus Moon - for as long as I can remember. I'm just surprised, I think, at how quiet my life is despite my doing what I can to open possible new avenues. I think you might be onto something with that Saturn influence. Not necessarily stopping the change, but perhaps delaying or somehow slowing the change. Interesting to consider, regardless. 😊

Uranus on Mercury/Moon/Mars natal T square had me feeling restless and not being quite sure what I want.I am now in school-post Uranus conjunct my Asc and square the Mc- And I am still restless but its slightly better. Uranus rules my 11th. And its subsequent placement in 8th suggests that friendship means a lot to me. Now my thinking is that the Uranus transit is awakening me up to the yearning to meet kindred spirits. I don't think the nature of Uranus is romantic in essence. Well atleast in my case there is not so much intimacy of bodys that drives me to fraternize with people right now, but the intimacy of the mind. Even if it were to be attraction. Its not lasting. There is disengagement. I leave it open ended. If there is a romantic connection with anyone,its likely to be strongly mental and has to feel "electric" to get me to sit up and take notice. I think with your Venus/Uranus transit, you may have expected romance. But I don't know if that is essentially what you need. For one,Uranus is interested in little else that does not have mental connection at its core. Even friendship is likely because Uranus promises change. So nothing heavy on the emotions. On the other side is the possibility that Uranus can make u seem that much harder to impress. So that condescending/detached look that Aquarians give off? Well, here's looking at you kid. Now you are giving it. Look to see if you are more bored than visual. More likely to be indifferent to small talk more than usual. Are unlikely to make eye contact with people or interested in the next stranger that walks past you than the one you are conversing with? Your attention span may be harder to hold on to. And u may just be...meh about most things. Which makes you appear bored to others. Opening yourself to the universe includes dealing with the dull and ignorant. Are you doing that? IP: Logged |

When transit Uranus was conjunct my Mercury in 2016, I ended up wanting it to do that again. I was bitter that I couldn't act on how inspired I was, because I had an essay to write for a class. And the worst part? The class was a creative writing course, which would have been perfect for unleashing my creativity as my inspiration involved writing.I'm not sure if it ever affected me another time, but now I sometimes get a similar effect as what I experienced during that transit on my own. My personal theory is that transits can't do anything that isn't already there without them. For example, when transit Uranus was conjunct my Mercury, it brought up creative potential that was there even without Uranus doing anything. Venus rules my 7th house so when transit Uranus is conjunct my Venus, I'm sure something is going to happen, because I'm already feeling things starting to change. At some point, Uranus was conjunct my Mars, though I don't have any record of anything happening at that time in my life. This doesn't mean nothing did. I just wasn't paying attention when the transit occurred. Anyway, I think Saturn transits have brought more change to my life than Uranus. This said, when Uranus was conjunct my Mercury in 2016, my view of the universe and the capabilities of the human mind were altered a bit, not that I can talk about a subjective experience with any degree of credibility. It's very unlikely that I'd make much sense if I tried talking about it. IP: Logged |

Thank you, Aries23Degrees.I was not expecting romance since I've been in a relationship for 21 yeas and a new romance is the last thing I need. lol I think, with Uranus, I wasn't "expecting" anything too specific. As I said, I worked to open various doors in my career - oh, and I'm a writer, so writing day in, day out could be thought of as the epitome of dull so no problem with that 😉 - and left myself open to out-of-the-blue opportunity. But, per the title of this Post, it's been quiet. The more I think about it, though, the more I suspect Saturn's involvement is delaying or somehow slowing the process. It'll be interesting to see what happens when Uranus leaves my Venus/Saturn to move opposite my partner's 28 Libra Mercury (rules Asc/MC in their chart) and then stations retrograde within a degree of my Moon. That might be where the change kicks off. Thank you for sharing your thoughts. 👍 IP: Logged |

Yes, Lerena, I agree with you. I also think that, in general, the transit could be a bit more noticeable if there's a natal aspect between the two, i.e. your Mars in a relational aspect with your Uranus. If there isn't that natal communication between them, the transit might not have the punch you expect.Or at least that's my theory. For instance, my Venus/Saturn are quincunx my Pluto, Part of Fortune, South Node, Jupiter and Uranus. So I would imagine any change Uranus brings would tap into the adjustment inherent in that quincunx aspect. Interesting thought, nonetheless. IP: Logged |

I had no flings, either, when it hit my Moon, Venus, and Mars. I would have liked to have met someone, but I didn't. My sister's boyfriend, now husband, hit on me more than once, and said he was in love with me. That's the kind of **** I get from Uranus now, when he used to have more of a fun/light effect, or help me to get out of something. IP: Logged |

She called me delusional and a liar, trying to break them up. This happened years ago, too long ago, makes me feel old thinking about it. And we have no relationship because of it. It's been almost sixteen years now, and she still maintains that he did nothing, even though she saw the email in which he said he was in love with me. Or she makes excuses for him, and then goes back to calling me delusional, jealous, etc. IP: Logged |

I had this transit back in 2006. I backpacked in Europe for a month. (Venus also squares my Mars). Sometimes with the bigger planets, I notice the events are triggered after they retrograde and hit the planet for the 2nd time. IP: Logged |

Thank you, bananaz. No doubt the square to your Mars helped. With something as notable as backpacking through Europe, was there anything in your progressions or solar arcs as well? But, yeah, I was kinda expecting something during its second pass in October but nothing Uranian happened. That's why I'm thinking the natal Saturn conjunction to Venus could be delaying it - as mentioned above (good call, btw) - and whatever Uranus-thing is fated to happen will do so with the second pass next month opposite my partner's Mercury. Regardless, it's interesting to watch and, with conversations like this, great to learn from. IP: Logged |

Nothing noteworthy. My progressed moon was sextile my sun. My transits were more active. Mercury crossing my ASC. Jupiter trined my stellium in Pisces and Mars trined my natal Jupiter. Here's something that you may find useful as a writer. During the time of this transit, I was inspired by a particular story I had in my head. I actually started writing it down at the time, and I remember dreaming about the characters while I was in Europe. Anyway, I ended up putting it aside and didn't touch it for years. In 2013, I decided to work on it again, but I changed the story to meet the demands of the market. It ended up being my best-selling work to date. I guess I'd tell you to pay attention to anything that inspires you. Write it down, even if you're not planning on doing anything with it now. Venus is often art, right? So maybe in your case, it's about creation. IP: Logged |

You make a great point about the writing, bananaz. Though, in my case, my publisher and producers have me on a release calendar stretching into 2022 so I can't travel TOO far afield of what I'm contracted to do. lolI still think it'll be interesting to see how this transit plays out in the end, if at all. Definitely be back to share my experience. IP: Logged |

Update: Uranus is now in Taurus (approaching my 3 Taurus Moon and 12 Taurus Midheaven but that's another post) and is officially done with my Saturn/Venus at 24/26 Aries.Thoughts: Nothing Uranian (shocking, earth-shaking, out of the blue, etc and so on). No major changes in relationships or career (w/Venus ruling my 10th and 3rd - I'm a writer) or my health (w/Saturn ruling my 6th). It did affect my father, though, and my siblings, both 10th and 3rd House issues. The Uranus/Jupiter opposition of Feb 2017 - with Tr Mars applying to a conjunction w/Uranus all within orb of my Saturn/Venus - did result in my father having a stroke (Saturn, I'm assuming) from which he hasn't recovered from. (Note: Uranus moving into Taurus has drastically affected his health for the worse and he may now be in his last days - SP Moon applying conjunction 29 Natal Gemini South Node, opposition 28 Sagittarius Venus, square SP 29 Pisces Venus) But my father and I are not close, emotionally or otherwise (I live far from him and have not seen him since 2012), so this hasn't affected me the way it might others. His health being compromised wasn't a surprise or shock. It was Uranian, though, in the fact that it was a sudden life-changing event FOR HIM and, for me, that could blend those Venus/Saturn aspects, I guess. (Note: my mother died in 2000 during the Jupiter/Saturn/Venus conjunction at 20-21-22 Taurus. My father's stroke had Jupiter at 22 Libra quincunx those degrees.) As someone mentioned above, it's possible my Saturn did somehow mitigate whatever effects Uranus might have had on my Venus. In any case, I thought I would update. Now, on to see how Uranus shakes up my Moon and Midheaven! IP: Logged |
