Uranus: Let Go or Else

Uranus may be associated with upheaval, instability, and unexpected change, but its job is not simply to destroy everything in its path. 

In this episode, Paula explains how Uranus behaves differently depending on its sign, house, and connections to the rest of the natal chart. Using her own Uranus in Scorpio in the seventh house, she reveals how the planet repeatedly disrupted unhealthy relationships, exposed hidden truths, and ultimately protected her from people who did not belong in her life. 

She also explores how Uranus may express itself in each of the 12 houses and why none of these placements automatically predicts disaster. Paula discusses the Uranus opposition—the astrological wake-up call commonly known as the midlife crisis—and the intense desire for change and freedom it can create. Uranus works beautifully when people release what they have outgrown, but when they insist on holding on, the planet may take out the trash with them still holding the bag.
