Many events can be explained by what astrologers
call the station point. This term refers
to the period when a planet slows down and stands relatively still before
changing directions, and either starts going backward ("retrograde")
or forward ("direct"). Think "station" as in stationary, in
other words. Why is this important? Because in the process of slowing down and
grinding to a seeming halt, the influence of that planet is dramatically
amplified.
Uranus
stations retrograde once every year, spending just under half of the year
retrograde; these retrogrades normally last five months. This time Uranus goes
retrograde on Aug. 15, 2020 [1]. For readers interested in Vedic Astrology,
Uranus is stationing in the Bharani Nakshatra. The symbolic meaning of this
Nakshatra is “The power of renewal and
purification. Rebirthing and transformation of spirit” [2]. On an individual level, those who have planets
around 10 degrees of the fixed signs (Taurus, Leo, Scorpio, Aquarius) are the ones
most likely to be affected i.e. in the Nakshatras: Bharani, [10ta] Ashlesha
[10le], Swati [10sc], Shravana[10aq].
With Uranus
transits especially at the stations, we are given a choice: change or die.
What Uranus
threatens us with not physical death, but a creative, soul-level withering, an
inability to thrive that, if allowed to settle within, would rot us from the
inside out. Uranus pushes us past the edge comfort, and further still—it is at
these boundaries, somewhere between order and chaos, where genius and
creativity thrive.

shell and seeing something in a new kind of way….
Sometimes we’re open to change
and ready to switch things up. I know from talking to a lot of clients that
many are looking to do something totally new. Lots of people are looking for
BIG changes right now. The good news is that Uranus is the catalyst that
propels us to make the DRASTIC changes that we want. The upcoming Uranus
Station Retrograde could very well be the trigger so many have been waiting on
to jump into that something new.
To
illustrate the power of the Uranus station, here is an example from today’s news.
A
total of 20 nations from Latin America, the Middle East, and Asia have already
requested doses of Russia’s breakthrough coronavirus vaccine, which was
confirmed to be registered on Tuesday by Russian President Vladimir Putin.
Uranus
station at [10ta41] occurs on the lower meridian (IC) at Moscow opposite the
TNP Poseidon and the medical asteroid Aesculapia [3] on the upper meridian
(MC). This makes the station especially significant for Moscow and Russia.
Moreover the station has been activated by the Full Moon of August 3 which
completed a Grand Cross with Uranus-Poseidon. With Uranus’s connection to breakthroughs and
the asteroid Aesculapia’s association with health and medical issues is it at
all surprising that Russia has come up with a vaccine for COVID-19?
Resonating
with the theme of Uranus station is the Sabian symbol of the New Moon of August
19:
PHASE 147 (LEO 27°): THE
LUMINESCENCE OF DAWN IN THE EASTERN SKY.
Dawn
indicating a renewal of the spirit and the end of the dark night of the soul.

ReplyDeleteAmen! I say again. Thank YOU Uranus!
