If you’re feeling stuck and itching to evolve, then the planet Uranus is dancing to your birth chart.
The unique planet of innovation, individuality and forward movement tells us that we need to strive to grow in order to thrive. The Earth is constantly moving and developing, which is why we must do the same to adapt.
Uranus guarantees that we will have shake-ups in our lives that push us to become the better-evolved version of ourselves. Having said that, it is important to note that change is hard. Therefore, we should move with care, ease and in our time.
As Uranus retrograde enters Taurus on Sept. 1 and lasts until Jan. 25, 2025, this time will allow us to consider how we want to evolve and transform as individuals and a community.
Here’s everything to know about your Uranus sign and how it affects your life.
What is your Uranus sign?
“Great Awakener” planet Uranus brings rebellion and revolution. It progresses us both as a society and as individuals. Moving out of our safety nets and into the “real world” is part of the grit that Uranus brings.
The planet pushes us to stand and rise up to bring forth advancements that make us transcend our ideology and relationship with technology. Uranus moves through each zodiac sign every seven years, making it a generational planet.
How does your Uranus sign differ from your sun sign?
The Sun sign represents what drives and motivates you. It is your essence in life, as it dictates who you strive to be. The planet Uranus is extremely different — not only does it change signs every seven years, unlike the Sun which switches signs every thirty days, but it also shows how you wish to grow and evolve in your lifetime.
Uranus is an outer and generational planet, meaning it is a newer planet compared to the traditional ones like the Sun, Moon, Mercury, Venus, Saturn and Jupiter. Since its transit lasts several years astrologers claim Uranus affects a specific group of people born during its orbit in a sign because it dictates themes of their age group.
For example, Uranus in Sagittarius is one of the core astrological characteristics of millennials, as it was in the sign from 1981 to 1988. Those born at that time grew up with the Internet connecting them to global communities. Sagittarius is the wanderlust planet, so it makes sense that the World Wide Web would bring this generation closer to each other (ie: Friendster, MySpace, Meta, etc). These astrological timelines tell a story that describes how we, as a society, go about implementing change in the world.

What does my Uranus sign mean?
A person’s Uranus sign affects people in various ways, depending on where it falls in their birth chart. Here is what your Uranus sign means by zodiac:
Uranus in Aries
Impulsiveness can lead you to breakthroughs and also stand in your way. All the more reason why you should focus on taking your time in making decisions before committing to one way of thinking. Challenging the taboos and societal norms can lead to greatness as long as you don’t argue too much in the process.
Uranus in Taurus
Slow and steady wins the race, as long as you have a goal and plan in mind. Take time to understand the ramifications of your actions before diving head-first into a situation. Getting out of your comfort zone will be hard, so use your creativity to adhere to innovative ways to embrace life more.
Uranus in Gemini
You want to break the glass ceiling and can, but your mind is always coming up with new visions, making it hard to complete each task at hand. Write out everything you wish to attain to stick to your aspirations. Staying on track and not letting distractions stand in your way is vital.
Uranus in Cancer
Change in tradition and familial relationships is important to you. Not allowing your kin to hold you back from evolving as an individual could lead to revolting against the ancestral beliefs your parents hold near and dear. You’re meant to challenge their beliefs; however, you should try to discuss your points respectfully with your brood.
Uranus in Leo
Using your talents as a source of rebellion means that you can showcase your art to transform the masses. The caveat is that you need to have direction and control, especially since your temper can force arguments to happen with those who critique your work or aren’t on the same path as you.
Uranus in Virgo
Augmenting ideas relating to healing, social services, self-care, and exercise are top priorities for you — especially since routine is crucial to your way of life. You might be a healthcare advocate or someone who is always looking for the next workout trend. Regardless of what path you choose, being of service to others is integral.
Uranus in Libra
Taking a novel approach to relationships can lead to hot and cold sentiments towards others. The key is to partner with someone who can let you be free to do your own thing and welcome you home with open arms. Finding the equilibrium between these two extremes can be hard, but you’ll be able to.
Uranus in Scorpio
Think of yourself as an onion (metaphorically, of course). You have so many layers of yourself to understand and comprehend, which is why it could take years or a lifetime to evolve into the person you want to be. Your intuition and emotions will push you to transform — as well as others. Take your time.
Uranus in Sagittarius
As a freedom-seeking sign and defender of the Milky Way, you are always shifting the paradigm to align with inventive ways of being. To you, choice is an extremely essential part of life and you’ll do anything to ensure everyone has it — even if that means making a few sacrifices for others.
Uranus in Capricorn
No one believes more than you that rules are meant to be broken. If regulations are not serving the common interest, you’ll advocate to implement structures that are in alignment with the world. Challenging the hierarchy, ways we make money, management at work and generational formalities gives you the ability to make necessary modifications.
Uranus in Aquarius
Never one to back down from a cause you believe in, you believe that connecting one-on-one with people can revolutionize their thoughts (and you’re not wrong). Working on a grass-roots level is fundamental to you. At times you can get too fanatical when on your soapbox, so it’s important to have awareness of your stance.
Uranus in Pisces
Fighting for endeavors and causes close to the heart in a compassionate and empathetic manner is critical to you. This leads you to stand up for progress in the medical field, particularly in mental health. Your views will be well received and serve as a beacon of hope. You want to help those in need.
