Uranus in Taurus

Last periods with Uranus in Taurus: 1935 to 1942 | 2018 to 2025
Generations that have a stronger desire to pursue new ways of acting practically, realistically and productively, where the material world and resources come into focus. They tend to innovate and to have different ideas about using material resources on the planet, something which can be related to money, economics, consumerism, technology, agriculture, our relationship to nature and productivity in general.

Uranus influence over Taurus can help individuals to better understand and interact in areas such as economics, natural resources and the material world itself, as well as to create or idealize new and revolutionary plans to use and manage those concepts. With the planet of freedom, revolution and innovation making their presence felt in Taurus, the focus becomes the tangible, sensory world and its values, concepts of beauty and security. A very traditional world view, especially when it comes to what is or isn't valuable and secure on a collective level, can present challenges.

These are times which inspire visible changes to the world. As an example, the Second World War, which was the last major war humanity’s experienced, happened exactly with Uranus in Taurus. Uranus’ influence helped generate a whole geopolitical reorganization of personal values and resources. During this period, innovation takes a little longer to happen, but this is still a powerful combination, where inspiring manifestation from above are channeled into the earthly realm, effecting solid, stable changes.

Birth Chart Interactions

People with Uranus in Taurus in their birth chart tend to be motivated and inspired by more practical, tangible objectives. For those born under this period, this position in Uranus can inspire a latent interest in financial management, sensory experiences or the resources required for survival in our world.

It is worth mentioning that Uranus’ power to act is a little limited when in Taurus, since they are antagonistic principles: One thrives in speed and surprise (Uranus), whilst the other courts slowness and stability (Taurus). Taurus and Uranus (Aquarius’ co-ruler), both energies interact with a fixed, stubborn quality, inspiring its natives to proudly state they don’t change their opinions easily. Taurus’ fixed influence brings a desire to be conventional, which collides with the natural impulse for liberation and novelty coming from Uranus. When balanced, this combination can forge individuals who are both original and practical when innovating.
