First and foremost, this influence will STILL be in effect with Uranus at a crucial time of pause and pivot into the Lunar Eclipse that takes place on Sunday. There is a profound creative nature to this shift of Uranus, the planet of rebellion and awakening, in Gemini, the sign of thought, learning, and communication. There is a definitive push toward new and different social circles and structures, and Uranus here is not just guiding but striking like lightning, electrifying connection and past social spheres may just be zapped in the process. Uranus is always hell bent on change, and it never comes easily…in Gemini this a process of excitement and exhilaration, but we must remember to sustain whatever we start, lest it lose its magic rather quickly under this fickle and frivolous Uranus. Gemini is the sign of duality, and remember...all duality is, in fact, a spectrum that encompasses all points in between and this roller coaster ride is one where Uranus thrives in the chaos and the defiance of expectations that comes naturally for Gemini. This is fast paced mental connection and need for high levels of mental stimulation, and this may not be comfortable for everyone. Whatever house Uranus is transiting in your own natal chart is how this time of STOP, stand still, and discern will impact you, but it is safe to say with this taking place at Eclipse time, it’s wise to do two things:
FOLLOW THE SIGNS AND SIGNALS
TAKE THE DAMN CHANCE
Uranus spins the path, and it’s up to us to listen accordingly, and that will be echoed even more powerfully by the nature of the Eclipses we are rapidly approaching. Uranus in Gemini is tornadic in nature, and this is where the vortex switches direction on a dime, with no warning and hits hyperdrive.
Uranus marks this time of Station Retrograde in a trine to Pluto, planet of transformation in Aquarius and a sextile to Neptune, planet of dreams and intuition, in bold and determined Aries. There has never been a better time to go forth into the wild unknown, leaving behind that which would deter you, with zero fear and without hesitation. Uranus is in Gemini, a sign ruled by Mercury, and not only does Pluto entail a need to leave the past in the past, but Mercury ruler of Gemini is in the other Mercury ruled sign of Virgo, it’s sign not only of domicile but also of exaltation, and Mercury is approaching the Sun and the South Node. The South Node is where this Eclipse is taking place, and that will be detailed for subscribers on my Divine Lunation level of insight tomorrow, but for purposes of Uranus Station, this is one of the most powerful times this entire year of chaos to LET GO of old patterns of perfection or rigid expectations on that Virgo South Node, and to step out of the past and into the present. The past will only serve to derail us here as we contemplate new and different avenues of awakening and awareness with Uranus in Gemini. The trine to Pluto echoes this sentiment, Pluto deconstructs and tears away that which we no longer need and it also forces us to confront control issues, while Neptune instills something that has been in short supply this year…HOPE. This Neptune lends a romantic nudge to Uranus, we idealize and dream easily and Pluto can bring useful obsessive qualities to whatever we decide to pursue at this time. Uranus is the great awakener, and being open to a complete shift in perspective is absolutely imperative to harnessing the creative potential and the magnetic power of this time of Station, where Uranus stops and forces whatever lessons we’ve been missing or glossing over recently. Uranus brings disruption and the unexpected to remind us exactly where we’ve stagnated, and the best way to take advantage of this and to turn uncertainty into opportunity is to DO SOMETHING UNEXPECTED.
Mars, planet of action and drive, is in detriment in Libra and this hesitation may trip us up when it comes to taking initiative, so it’s beneficial that Mars while in detriment is provoked in a square to Jupiter, planet of spiritual awakening and growth, in Cancer, where Jupiter is in exaltation. Jupiter in Cancer entails powerful emotional tides and a strong sense of intuition, this Jupiter needs to connect on the deepest of emotional levels and does not let Mars in Libra obfuscate or fake its way through whatever challenges are now upon us. Jupiter, being in exaltation, is the more powerful of the aspect, and the emotional context cannot be hidden under the surface. Jupiter in Cancer is nurturing, deeply protective, and reminds us of the importance of home and family, we crave emotional security in spite of the chaos crumbling everywhere in 2025, and the square to Mars shows this avoidant Mars that addressing these needs is the only way to find the collaboration and peace that Mars in Libra requires yet has difficulty ascertaining. Mars is also in a lovely sextile with Venus, planet of relationships and resources, in lovely Leo, where Venus requires affection and adoration, so the way to the heart of this Mars is through Venus in Leo devotion, loyalty, and above all else, affection. This is a highly persuasive Venus/Mars aspect that can turn up the heat in close personal relationships, or can inspire truly divine creative projects. The Jupiter square to Mars can feel like an immense obstacle, but the path to success lies in the delicate arms of Venus supporting Mars in Libra in pursuit of desire.
Above all else, under this time of Station, pay attention. Electrical things may malfunction, technology may glitch, memory may be strange and dysfunctional, things also feel strange and eerie as we approach the Eclipse. This influence of Uranus Station will last for several days, and may leave heads spinning. Pay attention to where your communication is directed, and ensure that nothing is missed or that effort is not being wasted. The spin of Uranus in Gemini can bring about sudden and shocking realizations, and with the South Node being lit up with Sun and Mercury in the upcoming Eclipse, that may mean about the past, deep past, or serious and profound karmic connections that need further exploration. Deeply karmic connections may also appear during this time, the past month and the following month are especially important in that context, so pay attention to your Nodes and your Vertex along with your AC/DC axis to see these patterns in action.
Uranus will remain in Gemini in it's Retrograde through mid-November, after which it will dip back into Taurus until spring 2026, so the "new" things need attention during this time and benefit the most from letting go of the past, but anything we didn't take care of will still be out there awaiting resolution later.
