To further personalize this for you, I will draw on Dr. Oskar Adler’s Testament of Astrology -- the following notes are from Lecture 7 of Sequence Six, “Movement of the Stars and Course of Life”, pages 113 to 121.
Uranus Tests the Stability of Self. In harmonizing the
here with the beyond, it shakes the ground of
the relevant house. Expect surprise and surrender to the charm of
novelty. Your degree of calm vs.
calamity rests in how much you fear change.
1st House: Conflict of individuality vs.
personality; enhancing obstinacy and egocentrism.
2nd: Shocks between the debit and credit account
of your life: what’s mine?
3rd: Shocks about siblings, separations,
interruptions in relationships; individuality vs community.
4th: Problems of a “Father-Son” nature. Find your way home to Transcendent Self
5th: Emotional tempests, passion vs. true love;
eroticism and control or cruelty; conquer egotism related to young children and
pupils.
6th: Shocks pertain to health, and the harmony of
the inner and outer life and one’s ability to merge harmoniously with a higher
community without relinquishing one’s Self.
7th: Relationship shocks: how to balance the
longing for freedom and independence with the yearning for union.
8th: Must reconcile thoughts of death and
immortality, and enforced leave-taking from something irreplaceable.
9th: Shocks related to religion and conflicts of
faith; conflicts of conscience require broadening one’s perspective, and to
find that faith that can issue from one’s own soul.
10th: Shocks related to external activities,
changes in one’s profession that brings disquiet. Questioning the truth of your
vocation vs. your profession.
11th: Shocks regarding friendship; questions of
conscience and egotism, attitudes change daily. The challenge is to find the way to balance true loyalty to
one’s self and to others.
12: Conflicts relate to the way out of one’s lower self,
balancing resignation, repentance, redemption, and the call for love and
self-sacrifice.
Uranus Retro until Dec. 13th 2012 calls us to revisit
how to free ourselves from egotisms that hamper our higher self-realization in
those areas of life. Dr. Adler
teaches that Uranus brings bend-or-break choices, to help us
reconcile our social and anti-social impulses and energies. As I said in my earlier blog post, Uranus in
Aries ignites our zest for life. So if what you’ve been doing hasn’t lit your
fire, use Uranus in Retro these next five months to find a better match
for your unique interests and ideals!
