Uranus is moving into the fire sign of Aries on May 27th 2010, (9:48pm EDT/ 6:48pm PDT) after a 7 year stay in the imaginative, sensitive water sign of Pisces. Unpredictable Uranus in the sign of high energy, combustible Aries can lead to dynamic changes, (such as advances in Science, technology – computers will be faster, the “next new thing” will be developed and immediately go “viral”). Think “electric”.
Uranus will do a back and forth movement in 2010 – it goes retrograde back into Pisces 7/5/10 and forward again into Aries 12/5/10. This volatile, unpredictable planet remains in the 1st sign of the Zodiac until 2018.
It takes 84 years for this outer planet to complete the Zodiac cycle spending approximately 7 years in each of the 12 signs. Since it is so far away from earth, the thought is that whatever effects this planet has will be on the world, rather than being felt in individual day to day life.
Radical change, discoveries, dismantling of traditions, out with the old/in with the new – blame it on Uranus. This could be fun?
BTW: Jupiter, another outer planet, moves into Aries on June 6, 2010. Jupiter, ruler of Sagittarius, is associated with joyously going “large”. Jupiter’s big plans, big deals coupled with Uranus’ eccentricities can lead to interesting times.
(However, as always, life continues, we will be alert and we will deal- it won’t be dull)
