Uranus aspects

What the tradition holds about the Uranus at an angle to each of the other bodies. An aspect on its own is geometry; what the older sources actually discuss is a particular pair at a particular angle, and they treat each one as its own subject.

15 pairings curated here, each traced to a work and a page you can open for free. 15 also have a longer piece on what the pairing looks like in a life. Anything involving Pluto is absent and will stay absent: it was discovered in 1930, after every work this site is able to cite.

Uranus and Sun

Sun conjunct Uranus· also written Uranus conjunct Sun: No source before the 20th century treats this pair; Uranus was discovered in 1781. One 1918 source groups the conjunction with the square and opposition, and reads them as impulsive and unreliable, with little regard for convention and a strong impatience of any restraint on liberty. Alan Leo notes that no signs had been allotted to Uranus or Neptune, and that for the present they might be taken as substitutes for the Sun and Moon — a hedge worth keeping.; What this looks like in a life; Max Heindel, The Message of the Stars (1918, at archive.org/details/messageofstarses00heiniala), pp. 367–368Alan Leo, How to Judge a Nativity (1912; pages from the 1928 printing at archive.org/details/howtojudgenativi00leoa), p. 27
Sun sextile Uranus· also written Uranus sextile Sun: No source before the 20th century treats this pair; Uranus was discovered in 1781. One 1918 source takes the sextile with the trine: original, inventive and independent in conduct and appearance, thought eccentric but not offensively so, drawn to studies people call queer such as occultism and astrology. Alan Leo reads a good aspect here as favouring public appointments and work with societies and associations, and as adding self-reliance.; What this looks like in a life; Max Heindel, The Message of the Stars (1918, at archive.org/details/messageofstarses00heiniala), pp. 366–367Alan Leo, How to Judge a Nativity (1912; pages from the 1928 printing at archive.org/details/howtojudgenativi00leoa), pp. 238–239
Sun square Uranus· also written Uranus square Sun: No source before the 20th century treats this pair; Uranus was discovered in 1781. One 1918 source groups the square with the conjunction and opposition: impulsive, unreliable, careless of convention, impatient of restraint. Alan Leo reads a bad aspect as the same Uranian inclination acting erratically — hard on domestic and especially parental harmony, on public position and goodwill, and productive of broken ties.; What this looks like in a life; Max Heindel, The Message of the Stars (1918, at archive.org/details/messageofstarses00heiniala), pp. 367–368Alan Leo, How to Judge a Nativity (1912; pages from the 1928 printing at archive.org/details/howtojudgenativi00leoa), p. 239
Sun trine Uranus· also written Uranus trine Sun: No source before the 20th century treats this pair; Uranus was discovered in 1781. One 1918 source takes the trine with the sextile: original, inventive and independent in conduct and appearance, called eccentric and conspicuous but not offensively so, and drawn to pursuits people consider queer, such as occultism and astrology. Alan Leo reads a good aspect as fortunate for public appointments and for societies and brotherhoods, and as somewhat increasing the positive side of the nature — self-reliance, independence of character.; What this looks like in a life; Max Heindel, The Message of the Stars (1918, at archive.org/details/messageofstarses00heiniala), pp. 366–367Alan Leo, How to Judge a Nativity (1912; pages from the 1928 printing at archive.org/details/howtojudgenativi00leoa), pp. 238–239
Sun opposite Uranus· also written Uranus opposite Sun: No source before the 20th century treats this pair; Uranus was discovered in 1781. One 1918 source groups the opposition with the conjunction and square: impulsive, unreliable, without much regard for convention, and highly impatient of restraint. Alan Leo reads a bad aspect as the Uranian bent acting erratically and unbalanced, hard on domestic harmony and on public standing, and causing broken ties of all sorts.; What this looks like in a life; Max Heindel, The Message of the Stars (1918, at archive.org/details/messageofstarses00heiniala), pp. 367–368Alan Leo, How to Judge a Nativity (1912; pages from the 1928 printing at archive.org/details/howtojudgenativi00leoa), p. 239

Uranus and Moon

Moon conjunct Uranus· also written Uranus conjunct Moon: No source before the 20th century treats this pair; Uranus was discovered in 1781. One 1918 source reads the conjunction as giving the same turn of mind as it gives the good aspects — originality and independence, quick and intuitive, with a vivid imagination and a pull toward the occult — but says those tendencies are not so pronounced here.; What this looks like in a life; Max Heindel, The Message of the Stars (1918, at archive.org/details/messageofstarses00heiniala), p. 371Max Heindel, The Message of the Stars (1918, at archive.org/details/messageofstarses00heiniala), p. 371
Moon sextile Uranus· also written Uranus sextile Moon: No source before the 20th century treats this pair; Uranus was discovered in 1781. One 1918 source groups the sextile with the trine and reads them as great originality and independence of mind — quick, intuitive, vivid in imagination, and inventive with it. It holds such people drawn to the occult, and credits them with the intuition to study and practise astrology.; What this looks like in a life; Max Heindel, The Message of the Stars (1918, at archive.org/details/messageofstarses00heiniala), p. 371
Moon square Uranus· also written Uranus square Moon: No source before the 20th century treats this pair; Uranus was discovered in 1781. One 1918 source treats the square with the opposition and is unsparing: erratic and touchy to a degree, it says — a walking powder magazine ready to explode at any moment — overbearing, conceited and intolerant, and shunned by anyone able to avoid them. It expects them to keep no position long, as employer or as employee.; What this looks like in a life; Max Heindel, The Message of the Stars (1918, at archive.org/details/messageofstarses00heiniala), p. 372
Moon trine Uranus· also written Uranus trine Moon: No source before the 20th century treats this pair; Uranus was discovered in 1781. One 1918 source groups the sextile with the trine and reads them as great originality and independence of mind — quick, intuitive, vivid in imagination, and inventive with it. It holds such people drawn to the occult, and credits them with the intuition to study and practise astrology.; What this looks like in a life; Max Heindel, The Message of the Stars (1918, at archive.org/details/messageofstarses00heiniala), p. 371
Moon opposite Uranus· also written Uranus opposite Moon: No source before the 20th century treats this pair; Uranus was discovered in 1781. One 1918 source treats the opposition with the square and is unsparing: erratic and touchy to a degree, it says — a walking powder magazine ready to explode at any moment — overbearing, conceited and intolerant, shunned by anyone able to avoid them. It holds that nobody can work for such a person as an employer and nobody will have them as an employee.; What this looks like in a life; Max Heindel, The Message of the Stars (1918, at archive.org/details/messageofstarses00heiniala), p. 372

Uranus and Mercury

Mercury conjunct Uranus· also written Uranus conjunct Mercury: No source before the 20th century treats this pair; Uranus was discovered in 1781. One 1918 source gives the conjunction no reading of its own here. It supplies a rule instead: where Mercury is otherwise afflicted, read the conjunction as one of the hard aspects; where Mercury is well placed and well aspected, the reading it gives the sextile and trine applies. On that source's own terms the conjunction takes its character from Mercury's condition rather than from the contact.; What this looks like in a life; Max Heindel, The Message of the Stars (1918, at archive.org/details/messageofstarses00heiniala), pp. 215–216
Mercury sextile Uranus· also written Uranus sextile Mercury: No source before the 20th century treats this pair; Uranus was discovered in 1781. One 1918 source reads an original, independent and eccentric mind here — impatient of the fetters of fashion, tradition and convention, and strenuous in hewing its own path in complete liberty. It calls this the hall-mark of the pioneer in thought and invention. It adds that such people keep plenty of friends through a kindly and sympathetic nature, and rates the aspects good for literary or scientific work.; What this looks like in a life; Max Heindel, The Message of the Stars (1918, at archive.org/details/messageofstarses00heiniala), p. 215Max Heindel, The Message of the Stars (1918, at archive.org/details/messageofstarses00heiniala), p. 215Max Heindel, The Message of the Stars (1918, at archive.org/details/messageofstarses00heiniala), p. 215
Mercury square Uranus· also written Uranus square Mercury: No source before the 20th century treats this pair; Uranus was discovered in 1781. One 1918 source treats the square with the opposition, and reads it as the hall-mark of the crank or the anarchist — someone with extreme ideas, bent on tearing down the social structure and undertaking radical reforms. It describes a habit of ranting and raving in public, with language as cruel as the measures being urged, and holds that whatever ability such people have is usually turned to erratic purpose.; What this looks like in a life; Max Heindel, The Message of the Stars (1918, at archive.org/details/messageofstarses00heiniala), p. 216Max Heindel, The Message of the Stars (1918, at archive.org/details/messageofstarses00heiniala), p. 216
Mercury trine Uranus· also written Uranus trine Mercury: No source before the 20th century treats this pair; Uranus was discovered in 1781. One 1918 source groups the trine with the sextile, giving an original, independent and eccentric mind, impatient of the fetters of fashion, tradition and convention. It calls their ideas and ideals exceedingly lofty, progressive and inspiring — too much so, it says, for the average person, who looks on their actions as vagaries. It rates these aspects good for invention, and names work involving air or electricity in particular.; What this looks like in a life; Max Heindel, The Message of the Stars (1918, at archive.org/details/messageofstarses00heiniala), p. 215Max Heindel, The Message of the Stars (1918, at archive.org/details/messageofstarses00heiniala), p. 215Max Heindel, The Message of the Stars (1918, at archive.org/details/messageofstarses00heiniala), p. 215
Mercury opposite Uranus· also written Uranus opposite Mercury: No source before the 20th century treats this pair; Uranus was discovered in 1781. One 1918 source treats the opposition together with the square, reading both as the mark of the crank or anarchist bent on tearing down the social structure. It describes such people as given to ranting and raving in public, their language as cruel as the measures they advocate, and holds that they are often forced into sudden changes because their ability is turned to erratic ends.; What this looks like in a life; Max Heindel, The Message of the Stars (1918, at archive.org/details/messageofstarses00heiniala), p. 216Max Heindel, The Message of the Stars (1918, at archive.org/details/messageofstarses00heiniala), p. 216
