Uranus time

[FrogStatue]

so Uranus went direct today, and holey mackerels I did felt it.

I have a cardinal grand cross with Mars in Aries over which
Uranus has been rolling about for some months
and it has been a personal revolution

another occupant of this grand cross is Pluto
to say this transit nearly destroyed me might not be melodrama

getting tired...

Hi everyone!

1. Hi FrogStatue. :)

It has been a pretty wicked streek lately.

2. Is that what's going on?

The energies starting a few hours before last night's eclipse (I'm on the West Coast) demanded, and are still demanding, that resentments be released, that weakness be moved beyond, that self must take care of self...responsibility things, not that anyone here has mentioned this trend...

Whoompf. I'm not sure I like that the heavenly bodies carry so much influence. Works against the free will clause. I'm with the direction and process, but...

3. Must be what it is. Lots of old stuff coming up last night and today. nt

4. What does that mean? nt

5. What does which part mean?

I think I'm remembering what else I was going to say the other night before the urges to pass out overcame me.

on March 18 of this year was the "supermoon"
on that day Uranus was at 0 degrees and 20 minutes of Aries
closing in to cross my Mars for the first round of this most unstabilizing transit
for a week or so prior to that night I was in a deep deep hole of depression
that night everything flipped and I found myself in the most intense mania
that I've yet to experience
this mania lasted about as long as the previous depression lasted
over the next weeks and months I gradually misplaced more and more of my marbles
until I had to quit my job

but my Mars not the only thing touched by this transit
I have a grand cross with
Mars 0 degrees Aries
Sun 0 degrees Cancer
Pluto 1 degree Libra
Ascendant in the neighborhood of 0 degrees Capricorn

after misplacing my marbles and quitting my job
the thought of working for anyone but myself almost made me physically ill
so I started working for myself
it's very tough sometimes and I'm perpetually broke
but I love it and the finances seem slowly getting better

"unrestrained determination set ablaze for liberation"
is a line from a song that I feel
captures the essence of this transit for me

6. What does it mean

for Uranus to go direct?

[FrogStatue]

7. there is an illusion of sorts

where, from our perspective on Earth
the other planets sometimes seem to slow down,
and then go backward (retrograde motion)
and slow down again
and then go forward (direct motion)

or were you looking for a more, for lack of a better word
"interepretive" answer about what it means for Uranus to go direct?
that answer I don't know I've quite the capacity to give

9. I don't know enough about astrology

to interpret meaning from planetary movements/alignments.

I know astrologers assign meaning or energies to various movements and alignments.

That's all I'm asking; what does one expect or look for when Uranus goes direct?

8. smack exact on my ascendent

I was expecting to feel invigorated but I've been oddly exhausted for the past couple days.
