Major changes in human scale
This morning, on the last day of Uranus in Taurus (at least until November). My usual breakfast was unhappy. My favorite YouTube channel, Sunday’s tradition, isn’t enough to annoy me by putting too much emphasis on new elements. The last thing I want to do is get into my office like every Sunday morning and finish my weekly column because I can’t think of anything to say in the world Uranus enters Gemini This week (July 7, 2025, PDT 12:47 am).
Since last November, a slow-moving planet moved to a new logo (which has happened four times) and my usual small, anecdotal method of writing doesn’t satisfy the task of explaining it. Such planetary transitions are epic and universal, and I have a hard time finding individual elements in them.
Uranus spent seven years on a sign, and we only had this threshold. We can review historically to see what happened to Alanus in Gemini last time, which included advances in technology, communications and transportation. It’s a tough transit for the United States, as Uranus’s return in our founding (and Mars) Gemini has put us in a big battle. Many astrologers have a more savvy nature to the affairs of the world than I have on these trade-offs. But I wrote to personal scale, so I naturally wondered: What’s in you?
Of course, it was destroyed because it was Uranus’s beating; the interference was disturbing. We love our daily activities, Sunday morning videos, a special breakfast, and even weekly routines, weekly trivia. We love the tradition that puts us in roots in time and place. Continuity. All of this brings us comfort, rest assured.
But with growing too many routines, you risk being bored, old, sleepy, uninspired; losing your temper on unimportant things that resist your need to stay the same for them. Uranus is a routine disgust, especially in Gemini, which revels in diversity, new ideas, new information.
Without change, without interference, progress will not happen. We will continue to tell the same old stories and do the same old things in the same old ways.
So, wake up. Uranus has entered a new sign today. Things will change – we can.
In addition to retrograde to Taurus between November 7, 2025 and April 25, 2026, Uranus will be in Gemini until May 22, 2033.
Empty slate
That’s why I love the desert: it’s so empty, the sky is so big that I can do anything at will. I love my biological comfort, my real life is filled with beloved possessions. But there is no doubt that the “stuff” suppresses us in many ways because we pay for it, store and maintain it. It might be a universal fantasy to think of everything and start with a new place, with a large, empty slate and infinite possibilities.
There was a time when even precious possessions outweighed their practicality. The emotional connections they represent may need to be released, or we just want to relieve the burden on our journey ahead. As Venus Trines Pluto (July 7, 2025, 1:44 AM PDT, 3º00′ Gemini and Aquarius), don’t be surprised if you suddenly desire to get rid of things and create more space for yourself.
Nobody’s children
A question is Capricorn full moon (July 10, 2025, 1:37 pm PDT, 18º50’Captain Mary) Is your level of success – not just taking care of the business, but taking care of your own heart?
It’s been many years since I had a living parent and I’ll admit that there are a few more days left to miss a child. Whether there are many people who are loved by their spouse, friends or children, having a loving parent will make you feel like you always fall.
It’s a tough world, and sometimes, no one of us really falls. Those who are most capable, make good decisions, always strive to do the right things, often take on some of the most burdens. These are Saturn’s children, and if they occasionally talk with gritted teeth, it’s not because they are reluctant, but because they are doing what they have to deal with considerable odds.
Most of us think we are under a lot of pressure in some aspects of our lives. These are tough times and difficult planetary transitions that sometimes make us feel mean, impatient and despised. But that’s not always the case. I remember when I was with an old sick friend during an afternoon errand. We walked everywhere, and the others tried their best to help us by holding the door, giving up their place, and other little kindness.
Those who know me are used to hearing my statements (usually after spending an hour in traffic) people are not good. But I have always doubted that if I were to pass the keel on the street, six people would immediately run over to see if I needed help.
This full moon is in Sabia symbol 19 Capricorn, A about five kids with a large shopping bag. It is safe to assume that almost everyone bears a heavy burden than they can. These days, it’s hard for us to have each other, because the world is tough, so many of us are kids without people, and for us, the shopping bags are too big, and when we fail or fall, there is no soft spot to turn. We are all trying to survive, and we are afraid that we won’t, which makes it hard for us. But we still have the ability to be surprisingly kind. We have not completely abandoned our instinct to destroy each other’s falls, which makes us human.
To our mission
As Saturn turns retrograde This week (July 12, 2025, 9:07 pm PDT) on 1º56’RARIES, it is best to avoid taking on new responsibilities. Instead, focus on the promises you have made – especially the promises you barely assumed and renegotiate them.
Since entering Aries on May 24, this retrograde station has returned to Saturn’s journey. Maybe you have more burdens than bargaining, or your personal situation has changed your contract on duty since then, so it is necessary to quit.
This is not to say that you should use this as an excuse to give up on something just because you lose interest. Persistence is a Saturn virtue. But some challenges are not the ones we have to take, and as Saturn becomes inverse, we can better identify them. Then, once Saturn turns directly (November 27, 2025), we will be in a better position to take on the tasks that meant to us.
