moving through the noise

Uranus is the spiritual upheaver. He invites you to break free from societal conventions, embrace the unknown, and challenge the status quo in your pursuit of a free and progressive consciousness. His impact is generational—sparking revolution in 7-year waves. He is a cosmic visionary—associated with the future-oriented Aquarius. His view is broad and overarching. He is the breaker of karmic cycles, encouraging us to evolve, not gently, but through an uproar that ultimately brings greater liberation and truth.

On May 15, 2018, Uranus moved into Taurus, the Sign of materialism, femininity, economics, and environmentalism—the exact day four tornados uprooted trees and damaged houses in my town, a natural phenomenon never before seen in my area—setting the tone for the next 7 years of instability where we know stability, insecurity where we know safety, and disruption where we once found ease. This transit shook up our material world—decentralized finance industries, innovated farming, skyrocketed housing costs, and challenged bodily autonomy. Uranus in Taurus revealed that true security comes not from clinging to the familiar, but from adapting to change in how we value the Earth, our bodies, and each other.

Uranus creates through chaos, and in Gemini, that creation is through curiosity, through electricity. These next 7 years are defined by a personal and collective reinvention of the mind. A new language that ignites radical change. Uranus in Gemini reflects not just what is, but what could be. It fractures the truth, multiplying it like a kaleidoscope. It asks us to question our thoughts, flip our perspectives, and—when necessary—shatter the glass altogether. This transit is a mirror suspended between clarity and chaos, revealing how easily perception turns to revelation—or distortion. Navigating it can feel disorienting, as we work to decipher meaningful signals from background static.
