When Uranus, the planet of change and revolution, enters Taurus, the sign stability and steadfastness, you tend to be the type of person who resists change. But when you do make changes, they tend to be permanent because you think them through thoroughly and completely.
Uranus in Astrology
Uranus takes approximately seven years to transit through each of the astrological signs and retrogrades for around 150 days every year.
Rather than being a personal element in the birth chart, Uranus is a generational element that highlights important elements likely to impact people born under its influence.
Uranus was the first planet discovered by telescope, rather than being visible with the naked eye. For this reason, it has long been associated with technology, progress, and change.
Uranus is also the only planet in our solar system that is named after one of the Greek gods, rather than one of its Roman counterparts. Uranus, or Ouranos, was one of the primordial Greek deities, older than the likes of Zeus. He is a personification of the sky and both the son and husband of Gaia, primordial mother earth. Again, this reflects Uranus’ significance on the broader landscape that surrounds us, rather than on our individual personalities.
Uranus is tilted so far on its axis that it essentially orbits the sun on its side. This non-conformity with the other celestial bodies in the universe is another characteristic that Uranus highlights.
It should be no surprise that Uranus governs the sign Aquarius, which is known for eccentricity and non-conformity, but also confidence and imagination.
The Uranus in Taurus Generation
Napoleon Bonaparte, the 14th Dalai Lama, Bruce Lee, Tina Turner, Sophia Loren, and Barbara Streisand. These are just some of the celebrities that were born under Uranus in Aries when the planet was in the sign between 1934 and 1942.
The most recent generation of Uranus in Taurus were born after 2018, and Uranus will stay in Taurus until 2026, for all our current new-borns belong to this generation.
One thing that the Uranus in Taurus generation has in common is that they don’t tend to be natural changemakers and prefer security and the status quo. But their pragmatic approach to life means that they often make necessary decisions that leave to fundamental and long-lasting change.
Uranus is the planet of change and revolution, while Taurus is the sign of stability. The two combine to make people who are will only invest in change when they can see the long-term benefits. When they make a decision, they stick to it.
Uranus in Taurus Personality Traits
When you are born under Uranus in Taurus, you tend to appreciate the system. You tend to think that it works in everyone’s benefit. Knowing the rules also gives you confidence to act.
You will resist pointless change, but when you see a problem that can only be solved by systemic change, you aren’t afraid to take the lead. Better you than someone less careful and informed.
For you, rules are meant to liberate rather than constrain, and you do chaff under rules that you think are pointless or cruel.
Uranus Transit Through Taurus
When Uranus transits through Taurus, we tend to have the urge to act in a collective and organized way. Rather than branching out on your own, you want your community to evolve together.
Currency and markets also have a tendency to change during this time, with new forms of money and new ways of trading potentially emerging. Attitudes towards what is considered valuable can change.
Concern with long-term issues, such as climate change, can also intensify at this time as people begin to think with a more long-term perspective.
Uranus Retrograde Through Taurus
When Uranus retrogrades for roughly five months each year, we are often called to take our foot off the accelerator a little. When Uranus is in Taurus, this is often accompanied by an urge to self-reflect.
At this time, it is common to recognize the internal things of value that you already have and consider how you can make better use of them in your life.
This can be accompanied by a healthy self-esteem boost and an urge to invest in yourself.
