Uranus Conjunct Moon
© 2004 Curtis Manwaring
Transiting Uranus conjunct your natal Moon. The Moon represents our home, mother, sense of belonging and need for comfort. Because Uranus represents freedom and sudden surprises, you can expect any number of the following situations: loss of home or household or inability to depend upon your mother or female relatives, reactions from women that cause you to feel upset, a feeling of estrangement from your environment (that you don't belong) and an inability to depend on or take for granted the usual comforts of your life (like household applicances that spark with electrical fires or just stop working). Your domestic situation is bound to be in a state of turmoil and unsettledness that will make it hard for you to maintain emotional equilibrium. As a result you may begin to detach from those things in your life that are currently upsetting. You are going through a period of emotional change that will ultimately make you more emotionally independant and self reliant. The saying, "You can't go home anymore." should ring true to you now. The positive side of this is that your freedom will be enhanced by the end of this period.
More on determining planetary condition...
If the Moon is lord of your first house, you can expect some significant changes in your life direction caused by the need to become independant from something or someone. You will become more emotionally self reliant during this time.
If lord of your 2nd house, you may be in the mood to free yourself from what you own or may have the sense that your possessions own you. A garage sale may be helpful. Sometimes this combination can lead to emotionally unsetting news about financial matters. Take steps to minimize risk of loss.
If lord of the 3rd, you may wish for greater independence or freedom from relatives and siblings now. Sometimes neighbors or relatives may behave in a way that is surprising to you, or you find that you cannot depend upon them.
If lord of the 4th, circumstances may force you to become more independant from parents, or you may wish to have freedom from your current domestic situation. A relocation to another city or sale of a home is not uncommon. You may feel estranged or cut off from your roots. Domestic instability can be expected.
If lord of the 5th, love relationships may be on-again, off-again or difficult to depend on. Electricity between you may be strong, but difficult to manage. Avoid investing in financial matters now. Children want more freedom.
If lord of the 6th, co-workers may be unreliable or undependable. In some cases, this may be a sign of a company forced to deal with potential unionization. Typical health problems usually involve digestive or stomach disorders. Routine is hard to maintain in the office.
If lord of the 7th, your mate of business partners may want more freedom and independance. Sometimes this indicates a divorce, but not necessarily. Some relationships become more loosely defined or may become more exciting and fulfilling.
If lord of the 8th, any financial dealings with tax officials or matters of estate need to be handled with care if the issue comes up at this time. Can indicate the loss of an estate or an inheritance or an unexpected inheritance.
If lord of the 9th, your dreams and imagination will run wild at this time. Just be sure to make the basis of your decisions in reality. Far away exotic places appeal to you more now and you may have the chance to visit. Your philosophical or religious views are likely to change unexpectedly.
If lord of the 10th, exciting opportunities for professional advancement may present themselves to you now, but stability in career is hard to come by or may be short lived. Be sure there really is a pot of gold at the end of the rainbow.
If lord of the 11th, you cannot depend much on your associates to help you now and what you receive may not be exactly what you ask for. Others may be prone to give you advice, but you may have a hard time following it.
If lord of the 12th, unexpected or upsetting news may lead you to make emotional decisions that lead you astray and make matters worse. It is best not to act on impulse now though you may be restless to do so.
