Initiation Ignites

Uranus' Next Big Move

Here we sit on the edge of Uranus’ official shift into Gemini. Just prior to this shift, on April 23rd, it comes into conjunction with Venus in Taurus at the 29th degree. There is a peak in energy at this time as we undergo an initiation process. That process is calling on us to bridge together the archetypes of Taurus and Gemini.

With Uranus conjunct Venus in her home sign at the anaretic degree, we are receiving some kind of breakthrough now. This comes after a long seven years of deconditioning our values, notions about money and security, and sense of self-worth. These themes have naturally tied into our relationships, and we now arrive at the end of this Uranian journey with a new rooting of self and clearer stance of our own value and what we’re willing to accept in life.

The beauty of Venus — who governs beauty in general — is she represents the principle of magnetism. What we embody energetically through our beliefs and perceptions (bridging Taurus and Gemini), is what we magnetize toward ourselves, and thus manifest, into our reality. The work of Uranus in Taurus has been shifting us to align with a deeper sense of our authenticity, which is the highest vibration one can hold. This naturally puts us into resonance with our highest timeline.

Yet… yet, that shifting timeline also implies that anything no longer in resonance with our authenticity and sense of self-worth will fall away. This can be anything from the old life: relationships, mindsets, occupations, habits, etc. Hence, we have the anaretic degree and a process of initiation which we are beckoned into before we can fully step into the energy of Gemini.

Why is Gemini so important? That is a much larger topic which I plan to explore in future articles and videos. But I’ll say this for now: Gemini is ruled by Mercury. Mercury, which is linked to the Magician card in the Tarot, represents our conscious mind, communication, and perception. Recall that Uranus deconditions through its influence. Through this next seven year transit, Uranus will alter the way we think, perceive, and communicate. In turn it will alter the expression of Mercury for each of us, and Mercury is our planet which empowers us to manifest.

Before we could step into a new power of manifestation, we needed to align with our core truth based in self-worth and personal values. That newly-acquired truth is now being put into practice through this transit of Uranus-conjunct-Venus. When we put ourselves first, our values at the forefront of our actions, and uphold our self-worth, we break through previous barriers to manifestation and personal fulfillment. We step into a new sense of harmony, security, and stability; a feeling of home within ourselves. This new feeling naturally attracts all material things which align with that energy.

There may be unexpected shifts, upsets, surprises or even tests over the next few days. You may be challenged to stand in your truth. You may receive sudden downloads or epiphanies that guide you to the next step of your journey — and that next step may be a bit unsettling at first. If this occurs for you, know that this is your initiation into a new level of personal mastery. The year of the Fire Horse calls and your true purpose awaits. You are ready and you are deserving.
