The New Moon in Leo on August 16, 2023, is square Uranus in Taurus bringing unexpected change. It creates a crisis but also an opportunity for innovation and growth. ( Also think of Uranus as (electronics) and Taurus as (rare earths))
Uranus is often indifferent to the concerns of others.... conflict tends to build, with neither side backing down. The themes of ownership, mineral wealth and territory are all central to Taurus.
Taurus can be about taking, about making sure we have what serves our pleasure without regard for others. The raw materials and resources taken from faraway lands, the sovereignty seized and lives used up on cheap labour or servitude, stoked the British Empire in the 19th century.
Uranus also brings the genius of invention to the world of matter ...Taurus represents the earth bringing life in abundance from dark matter. Uranus is the energy of the heavens filled with desire, come down to fecundate our mother. https://tinyurl.com/3hk85a88
A chart for the New Moon drawn for Washington DC is angular with the Pluto-Nodes-Vul-Apo Grand Cross aligned with the meridian. Martha Wescott provides the following interpretations:
Apollon/Vulcanus: Pressure from business demands
Pluto/Vulcanus: to see control as a contest of strength; to be wiiling to do whatever it takes to gain the upper hand; to be forced into circumstances that are beyond your control; to be aware of intense pressure to change or become more effective or stronger
The Sabian symbol for Uranus is very meaningful in the current context
Taurus 24 (23°- 24°)
