Philip Sedgwick: SkyScraping: Uranus Shifts Gears 2 Jul 2025

Uranus, the psychic emancipator in the sky changes signs on 7 July, which when listed numerically (7-7) is two-thirds of a great slot machine result. What will this bring? Luck? Being in the right place at the right time? Maybe. Better not to anticipate anything with this planet. Expect things totally unexpected and not anything you may expect - this is Uranus, after all. Suddenly will everything get better? Yes and no. Perspectives shift and with those changes, new scenarios require deep emotional adjustments to align in ideal application. Uranus also asks, “Is this app useful or wasting my time?”

As Uranus first enters Gemini, he aligns with Venus and Sedna, two extremely potent goddesses who hold distinctly specific agendas. The combo: a change in personal spending patterns may appear out of thin air, which may or may not comply with global economic trends. This does not suggest idle indulgence, but does mean expenditures must be consistent with the objective of purposes, sparing no expense. Any radical change in spending must be justified to appeal to the psyche. When it is realized this is the cost of doing what you must do in life to feel fulfilled, it all makes perfect sense... regardless of fiscal sensibilities others offer to convince you otherwise.

This planet trinity of Venus, Uranus and Sedna in dualistic Gemini seeks to promote six life options. These options could be defined by strategic questions that are cool with an abstract answer, as long as that answer reveals practical applications for progressive and liberating personal gain. One can conjure six questions to ponder in early July to support the Uranian ingress and conjure the best of options. Examples are:

What is your word worth?
Have you done your duo diligence on all matters under consideration?
Do you recognize the choice (change) you are about to make is of your conscious choosing?
Have you tried remote viewing the scenario you next engage to see how it feels to your soul?
What you are creating has value well beyond novelty, right?
So pretty much the concept of a pro/con list regarding important life decisions is moot. It’s really what you want on the plane of your psyche and you can emotionally wrap around, correct?

About a month into his Geminian occupancy, Uranus is trined by Mars in Libra on 7 August. A third of the way across the sky from each of these planets stands Pluto, retrograding through primal degrees in Aquarius. This creates an evocative grand trine. Could this portend political hands being forced in ways that provide beneficial results to the world? Yes, it could. Will it? At this point, accurate prediction seems impossible as how the transits intend to play out. Remember this is the free will wild card Uranus under consideration. The best thing a person can do is apply the grand trine for their personal benefit, which includes a clear and responsible attitude regarding free will. Is the future carved in stone? Can you trust someone who declares it is? Better to choose well and not from the point of view of defiant resistance.

And how is such Uranian application to unfold? First, avoid doing things because it’s what righteous people do. This smacks of buying ones way into heaven. Use Mars in Libra to create fairness and level the playing field such that all parties perceive positive outcomes going forward in all situations at hand and simultaneously hold hope with negotiations in progress. This component favors the alleged humanistic side of Aquarius (Pluto’s placement) and the higher mindedness often attributed to Uranus while overlooking his propensity for crankiness. Uranus has been around the block and knows things that those who have not navigated similar straits may not know. When Uranus wants to relay a tale about this or that, listen up and do so attentively and patiently. His wisdom and experience can speak volumes, even if he is spinning a difficult to decipher yarn about this or that and what happened then. The theme of the story is the spark of a transcendent thought in the Uranian narrative that might perfectly fit with the persuasions Pluto presents to you in real time. Seek out no mentors, but when your personal Socrates (The Way of the Peaceful Warrior) serendipitously and unexpectedly appears, challenging his credentials only tests his patience. Avoid bombast, skepticism and respond to new insights with at least an objective “Hmm. Interesting.”

Bear in mind from November of this year until the end of April next year, Uranus returns to Taurus for one last look in the current revolution. He’s actually prompting confirmation if inaccessible pastures are truly greener. Given the return to Taurus, he also strives to confirm that any economic consideration makes sense from the grounded Taurean view as contrasted with the airiness of Gemini. This is another chance to verify all changes occurring point in a direction decidedly consistent with life agendas. Sometimes during Uranus transits others work overtime to reality check your actions and declarations for consistency with intentions. This is not naysaying, judgment or ridicule. This is simply those who sincerely care about how things turn out for you seeking confirmation that you have done your deep dive research and have accurately projected your plan for your actions contrasted against any and all possible life outcomes of consequence.

What are the patterns that occur as Uranus enters Gemini but days in the future and again May 2026 when he returns to dive in for a full run in Gemini? As Uranus shifts signs, he conjoins Sedna, trines Pluto, and sextiles Saturn and Neptune in Aries. Quite the gaseous giant gaggle to which Pluto and Sedna apply insights from the edge of the solar system.

Uranus’ alignment with Sedna confirms conscious awareness of choices made and indicates acceptance of all consequences and further, seeks to apply no blame, nor cause to others. This suggests keen attention to the realization of free will and any potential defiance of the good advice of others.

Given the sextiles to Saturn and Neptune, he reluctantly cultivates patience in terms of the responses of others and life itself to all grand plans. Here, he comprehends that others do not uptake insight and process it exactly as he does. Uranus recognizes that others may not conclude what he does, but it’s worth another shot to use a different sequence of words or maybe a pictorial presentation instead of so many words. Thus, modern day reliance upon look books, pitch decks and mood boards.

The trine to Pluto easily can cause one’s hair to stand on end. A profound sense of magnitude tracks the greatest of ideas, concepts and platforms. This could be the game-changer! This might change everything!! Indeed, it might. However, bear in mind that the collective will look at those potentially transformational concepts through the filter of, “Why are they doing this?” “What’s their win?” “Is this truly altruistic or uniquely self-serving?” Knowing that, having a clear and solid belief system that underscores every social media platform, and infuses into each and every meeting with potential partners, investors or fans goes a long way in reducing suspicions.

Will the course of life change overnight? Nope. Uranus is a slow-moving, highly inclined cantankerous planet. More than a modicum of patience is required to achieve ideal results. Ample time is needed. The necessary emotional wraparound on the part of those implying participation must be sanctioned. This is a tricky bugger. The emotional wrap around only occurs once the mental process of logical consideration has been applied both linearly and abstractly until the point of utter brain fatigue. Then, it becomes, “Okay, let’s do this.”

While time unfolds and humankind works to grok new ideas, entertain yourself with things that feel breezy and fun. This is not self indulgent. This is necessary for filling the gaps that occur in the organic sequencing of human response... something that Uranus in Gemini understands and Pluto in Aquarius may seek to reward.

Whew - that's a lot, folks. Stay well, all.
