Subject: Uranus in Aries
« Date: 25.07.2018 at 13:20 [UT+1] » Uranus exits Aries: A pioneering 7-year cycle comes to an end.
Since March 2011, Uranus has been transiting through individualistic Aries, igniting radical activism. During this era, we saw the Arab Spring, Occupy Wall Street, the Black Lives Matter movement-plus Marriage Equality and the Women’s March. In renegade Aries spirit, the people have raised their voices in the name of inclusion and human rights. On the hotheaded flipside, this cycle also stirred a few frightening fringe uprisings, including violent “alt-right” rallies, ISIS and a spike in post-election hate crimes. 2011 England riots - Wikipedia
Personal expression skyrocketed with tech-savvy Uranus in solo-star Aries. “Selfie culture” exploded, while anyone with a webcam or a Snapchat handle got a shot at fame. We got YouTube celebrities, viral videos (Chewbacca mom, anyone?) and auto- tuned pop (Rebecca Black’s “Friiiday, Friiiday” shall forever ring nasally in our ears). Uranus rules television, which is forever altered. Instead of gathering ‘round the family flatscreen for prime- time programs, we now binge-watch on personal devices, making our own TV schedules.
This Uranus cycle also brought some epic indie creations, from Beyonce’s “Lemonade” visual album to Netflix’s Orange Is the New Black. But in capricious Aries style, we forgot that our devices are also sensitive data storage units, putting our identities and personal passcodes at risk. Social media, while an amazing tool for launching independent campaigns and efforts, was used to manipulate the masses with fake news and full-on cyberhacking. Attention spans shortened, Aries style, thanks to our Uranian smartphones, and distracted driver laws had to be put in effect.
Uranus will depart from Aries on May 15, 2018, making one last return here from November 6, 2018 until March 7, 2019. After that, it won’t visit Aries again until 2094, so put your personal stamp on the zeitgeist while you can!
