Ringed Planet Uranus has an erratic spin which means he is on his side as he orbits the Sun. Perhaps this is part of the quirkiness which lends to his reputation as a bit of an unconventional odd-ball planet.
Uranus transits aren’t as feared as Saturn transits. However, they can have a big impact which can bring on enormous change, both internally, externally, and collectively.
Uranus can prompt awakenings triggered by “eureka” moments and is considered the higher octave of cognitive Mercury.
Due to the speed of the transpersonal planets, we all have similar transits during our mid-life which impact us all around the same age, much like the Saturn Return at age 29.
Uranus takes 84 years to do a full revolution around the Sun, and at around the age of 42, all of us go through the Uranus opposition or half-Uranus cycle as it also known. Most people will recognise this transit as the “mid-life crisis” where we do all sorts of crazy things like walking out on relationships after many years or quitting a job, getting a tattoo and buying a flashy sports car.
In this episode of The Stellium Astrology Podcast I talk about some of the key concepts of Astrological Uranus without being too off-the-wall with my explanations, in the hope of awakening your connection to the solar systems’ most rebellious planet.
Join me as I explore Uranus in the charts of celebrities and subscribers.

Carolina
Here we have Uranus Rising in the Venus ruled sign of Libra. Most people with Libra rising have an attractiveness about them, so perhaps with Uranus rising in this signs, Carolina bay be unconventionally beautiful.
As Libra is the sign of relationships, there may be an unconventional attitude towards relationships, too, as most people born with Uranus in this sign witnessed revolutionary attitudes towards marriage, partnerships and relating.
Fortunately Carolina has Mercury in open-minded Sagittarius in conjunction with Venus, her chart ruler. These two planets are sextile Uranus (60° away give or take a 4° buffer either side) which mean Uranus is expressed through her communication style, inspiring others with her and interest in humanitarian causes.
Leflora
Subscriber Leflora has Uranus rising in Sagittatrius – as if Sag wasn’t freedom loving enough already?! And look at that gorgeous Moon–Jupiter conjunction in Uranus-ruled Aquarius. This is definitely a freedom loving chart, someone who needs to do things her own way.
As you can see Leflora actually has a pretty huge Sagittarius stellium as it is, but with Uranus in the mix, she may not be your typical Sagittarius. Uranus is in conjunction with her Sun so there may be a sense of unconventionality, she may be into alternative ways of celebrating her spiritual or religious ideals – if she has any at all.
Uranus rising in her chart may cause Leflora to reject religious or spiritual ideals in favour of a more unique and person centred connection to her higher self. It may also cause her to feel like an outsider wherever she goes, but she may prefer to be outside of convention rather than fitting in to something that feels so alien to her.
