Today Uranus moves into Tau­rus. This is what I wrote in my 2018 Fore­cast about this impor­tant shift of Uranus from Aries into Taurus:

Uranus in Tau­rus – Trans­for­ma­tion of Value
Uranus in Tau­rus, (2018–2026) will bring star­tling trans­for­ma­tions to the realm of Val­ues. The pre­vi­ous times for Uranus in Tau­rus were 1935–1942, 1851–59 and 1768–75. Those peri­ods were char­ac­ter­ized by upheavals and rapid changes in Soci­ety and Cul­ture and brought about new order­ings of Eco­nom­ic and Polit­i­cal struc­tures. These Uran­ian shocks and turn­ings break old iden­ti­fi­ca­tions, lead­ing to rev­o­lu­tion­ary break­throughs in Ideas and Tech­nol­o­gy, in Soci­ety and Cul­ture. Uranus leads us beyond our self-cre­at­ed Sat­urn­ian bound­aries, and in Tau­rus it cre­ates a new Fab­ric of Mean­ing. Uranus in Tau­rus will ush­er in a new Val­ue Hier­ar­chy, and a so new kind of Human too. The self-lim­it­ing attach­ments to out­worn ways and val­ues are bro­ken, and a new way of being emerges.

One crit­i­cal obser­va­tion of Uranus’ three pre­vi­ous pas­sages through Tau­rus should be appar­ent to those who study his­to­ry. Each of these pri­or peri­ods were fol­lowed in US his­to­ry by our great­est con­flicts, World War II, The Civ­il War, and The War of Independence.

The past is nev­er a per­fect pre­dic­tor of the future, noth­ing ever remains the same in these very com­plex, inter­pen­e­trat­ing cycles of the plan­ets, and we should under­stand that no pat­tern can ever tru­ly “repeat”. But there are most cer­tain­ly revealed here res­o­nances or rhymes. These Signs and Plan­ets hold the forms and mean­ings that can reveal to us the heart­beat of spir­i­tu­al growth in our self-trans­for­ma­tion­al jour­ney. These “Songs of Spir­it” echo down through the cor­ri­dors of his­to­ry and they should give us pause now to con­sid­er what may lie ahead.

Per­haps it is in the very nature of Uranus, which is to break up the old orders of Val­ue held by Tau­rus, which lead to these great con­flicts between peo­ples and cul­tures, both with­in and between nations. The his­tor­i­cal record would cer­tain­ly seem to indi­cate that this is so for the USA. But does this mean that our future is fat­ed; that we are mere­ly wit­ness­ing now the begin­ning of the next great world-wide conflict?

I for one do not believe that his­to­ry “repeats”. The human king­dom is on an ever-ris­ing path of spir­i­tu­al awak­en­ing. There is with­in all of us an abid­ing faith and hope that we will find “the way” to more per­fect­ly align our­selves with our divine essence, and that we will remain true to our high­er self who lov­ing­ly calls to us to remem­ber from whence we came, and why we are here for one another.

We are on a Jour­ney of Life-Con­scious­ness-Spir­it; we are here on Earth for one rea­son, we are here to learn to be ful­ly human. We are to become ever more cen­tered in our Spir­i­tu­al Essence and Truth to live with a Freer Mind, Uncon­di­tion­al Love and a right­eous­ly Cen­tered Will. It is by this self-made path that we will rise above our ear­li­er errors that were found­ed in mis­un­der­stand­ing and fear. These dark echoes, flash­ing for­ward into our present cir­cum­stances, remind us that we have fall­en before.

We need not repeat our past mis­takes; we can take these gifts of the spir­it, offered at this time by Uranus in Tau­rus, to break our iden­ti­fi­ca­tion with the mis­shapen husks of val­ue and reveal the deep­er truth of beau­ty, grace and love that shines through our world and in one anoth­er. We are lumi­nous beings; let us shine for one anoth­er. Let us love one another.

It is our ever-unfold­ing real­iza­tion that we are part of a greater sto­ry, the sto­ry of spir­it, the jour­ney of the Divine to become ful­ly man­i­fest in our world and in one anoth­er. We will heal the mis­un­der­stand­ings between one anoth­er and come to the truth that all our errors, all our pains and suf­fer­ings, have come from this great­est illu­sion, the illu­sion that we are sep­a­rate from one anoth­er (and from this cre­ation too). We, and all of Cre­ation, are one in Spir­it. We are here to be Cre­ators and to live our lives in Love, Beau­ty and Truth.

For each of you, look to where you have the Sign of Tau­rus in your own chart, (and equal­ly, if you have any plan­ets there, that will make this an even more sig­nif­i­cant pas­sage for you). It is in this realm of Tau­rus that you expe­ri­ence and reveal your deep­est expe­ri­ence of Val­ue and Beauty.

Under­stand that as Uranus moves through Tau­rus it will elic­it from you the neces­si­ty that is at the heart of Spir­it. If Spir­it is Life; and Life is Spir­it, then we are here quite sim­ply to grow. You are here to become a ful­ly awak­ened human and you must be open to Change. Let go of the less­er, more cir­cum­scribed reach­es of your aes­thet­ic, moral and spir­i­tu­al val­ues. It is in your essen­tial nature to become more than what you were, to lift your­self and human­i­ty clos­er to the Divine which is shin­ing there with­in you.

A new human­i­ty is com­ing; but it is upon one and all to lov­ing­ly make this so.

Let us shine together!
