A Higher Gear w/ Uranus on the threshold of the Twins
As Uranus steps over the threshold of Gemini on the 26th of April (UT) this switches everything into a much higher gear. Pluto in AQU, transforming science, politics, people’s rights, Neptune in Aries, the cardinal fire sign, spiritualizing the will, manifesting our dreams, and Uranus in GEM, the awakening of the mind. This triad of outer planets spanning 120 degrees of the circle which equals a third, a very harmonising number, is in and of itself opening a dam.
I’ve been meaning to write about the Uranus ingress in Gemini for some time now. Uranus did enter GEM last year, but only for 4 months as is retrograded back into Taurus in November. Both last year and now it enters in close conjunction with Venus, his last child according to the myth. In that story Gaia is fed up with Uranus procreative activities as he creates so much progeny in the form of cyklops, sirens etc., that she asks her son, Saturn to set an end to it. Which he does by severing his father’s testicles with a sickle and throws them into the water. And out of foam Aphrodite/Venus rises in all her splendour. Venus is the ruler of the sign Taurus where Uranus spent the last 7 – 8 years, and thus the world economy, banking and such, has been exposed and shaken by the awakener.
There is however tension between fixed signs (Taurus, Leo, Scorpio and Aquarius), and Uranus is the modern ruler of Aquarius but has been travelling through Taurus, so there has been a lot of tension between ideals and practical functions in society, with food supplies, or parts needed for technical products. Especially now that Pluto is transiting AQU 2024 – 2044, there is a lot of transformative work going on with the ruling of nations, the collaboration between groups, communities and friends at large.
Gemini is ruled by Mercury, is an air sign like AQU, and is all about communication, information, distribution, spreading the word. It’s about siblings, brothers, neighbours, learning, and going to school. It’s about daily life and how we understand each other. It’s intellectual and socially refined in a way that makes us leave the wild behind for the civilised.
Not only is Venus with Uranus as he enters, but also SeDNA, the deep-sea ocean goddess of the Inuits, is awaiting him there. And she comes from a time so far back, we’re talking 11 406 years, that’s her orbit around the sun, so she’s holding memories from the actual age of Leo, which was the last time that our solar system was in the galactic day/photon belt, and this was the time that Atlantis went under the Sea. Our solar system is during all the other ages in what’s called the galactic night. This is due to our connection to the Pleiades as the 8th star in that constellation, and in our position at the bottom of the axis, with Alcyone at the top, our journey is most of the time in the precessional cycle of 24 000 years (official number is 25 800 years) in the galactic night except for the two ages of Leo and Aquarius. Notice how Alcyone is on 0 GEM21’, and four of the seven sisters are already in tropical GEM, Electra will be the last to enter in 2037.
When we look at the chart of the ingress we see the Moon, the earth’s satellite, on the last degree of Leo in a square with Uranus (a fourth of the circle, hard, manifesting tension, kick in the but-energy). The Moon is also squaring, to the minute, a Cubewano called Deucalion, which is the Greek counterpart of Noah. He is the son of Prometheus, who in astrological language is interchangeable with Uranus, or has given much of his attributes to the way we interpret Uranus.
This Cubewano Deucalion, one who foresees the coming deluge/flood, and has a natural magical ability, is in exact opposition to Uranus as he enters GEM. Aviation, bridges, communications between people, and to the people from a place of brotherhood, of equality and freedom. This is the power of Pluto we readily can feel now from where he is in AQU.
Humanity is standing at a very similar fork in the road as we did back in the last age of Leo, the sign ruled by the SUN/Heart. Only now we’re in the age of AQU, yes, since 2012/12/12, which is ruled by Uranus/Prometheus. An influence working for people and connected to the circulation of blood in our bodies, the distribution of the essence of the heart.
The whole pattern of the T-square mentioned earlier is also embraced by three feminine deities opposing the Moon in Centaur Chariklo, interested to boldly go where none has gone before, asteroids Diana, the Moon Goddess/huntress and in Greek myth the twin sister of Apollon, Astrea, the star maiden, who, like a Bodhisattva, stayed behind after all the other gods had left for Olympus, to help humanity reach enlightenment – we are truly blessed by the powers that be.
We have just experienced a number of charged kicks into this moment with the Solar eclipse in Aquarius on the Chinese NY, Feb 17, releasing the Fire Horse, another symbol for freedom, sovereignty and solar power, the Saturn-Neptune conjunction on 0 degrees Aries, the world axis (hasn’t happened for over 6 000 years), and this extraordinary line-up on the new Moon in Aries, April 17, of 6 planets + Chiron, Eris, Manwe, Salacia, Atlantis, & Okyrhoe. I mean, how good does it get?
So, this time we will make it. We won’t plunge into the maelstrom of the deep sea, even if Neptune’s horses roam there now, instead we will take the road less travelled by. And it will probably still mean a great deal of controversy. Humanity has after all been held in systems of control, taxes, economy, nations, ownership, authorities, fear of death, denial of the divine feminine and masculine etc. for the past 6000 years.
This is why I with great anticipation look forward to the now. We have finally come to a point where the leap must be made. Fly or die sort of. Again, so resonating with Uranus in Gemini and the amazing back up by Pluto, Neptune, Saturn, and all the others, and I must mention that Jupiter, the planet of wisdom, has been smiling all this time of late, he still resides in Cancer, the sign of his exaltation, encouraging nurturance, care-taking, the bonding with your tribe/family. He will later move into Leo (June 30th) from where he will oppose Pluto, trine Neptune, and sextile Uranus/Sedna. We are really going to hear the music of the spheres. It’s unstoppable. Can you feel it? Can you sense it? Freedom of speech. Love is the answer.
