Astro Daily: August 14, 2020

We’re not only rounding out the lunar month this weekend, a time when we’re typically getting quiet and pulling back to reflect, but Uranus is poised to turn retrograde. Be open to flashes of insights, new consciousness, and a push from our comfort zone.

I mentioned this a bit extensively in my weekly video astrology update, which you can rewatch here, but Uranus’s time in Taurus as well as its retrograde turn this weekend is part of a story of new awakenings. In fact, this is something we’ve been working through since March 2019.

If Taurus represents a part of our lives that needs stability and not prone to a lot of change, then Uranus shakes things up. It’s saying that we need to leave what’s comfortable and stable because we’ve grown stagnant. We need new vision and new ideas otherwise we risk staying small.

What is shaking up for you? Is it your career and ambitions? Is it how you see the world? Is it relationships? Is it even your sense of self worth that needs to completely change? (You can read what part of your life Uranus is shaking up in my Uranus in Taurus: Sign by Sign guide.)
