Lately I’ve been reflecting a lot on Uranus in Ares. The spark and fire of Ares united with the unique qualities of Uranus is a call to step into being your true and authentic self – the special and unique you that calls forth light in the world. The somewhat playful, adventurous, and unpredictable qualities of Uranus reminds us that there is more to who we are and that the deeper we go, the greater the journey and more exciting the discoveries.

Uranus has been in Ares now nearly 7 years. Having moved into this position in 2011, it has been a period where beginnings and deeper examination of things hidden are being called forth. I have a deep personal connection with Uranus and as I have reflected on these last 6+ years, I see a period of tremendous transformation.
While I’ve been on my spiritual journey for some time, it has really been the last 5 years that have awakened the deepest truth of who I am and what I am being called to be. During this period, I have discovered truths in the midst of examining some of the darkest places. My reflection hasn’t been focused on regrets, poor choices, and lost opportunities. Instead, it has been about putting these things in context and embracing the lessons they brought. Sometimes it has been about recognizing those lessons for the first time. The challenge now is how to capitalize on these remaining months of Uranus/Ares energy to catapult me into this new chapter. This chapter is one of acknowledging the special and unique aspects of who I am and openly sharing these with our world.
Another aspect of my reflection has been the place of Uranus in my natal chart. I have a Uranus retrograde in Leo which called me to bring a strong flame of my uniqueness into our world. With Jupiter in Capricorn in my chart, what I have learned of myself is the call to go big, burn bright, and not to be bothered by what others may think. I’ve often been described as a bit ‘out there’ or eccentric, which at times I admit caused me grief. Now however I see those comments as complements and affirmation of my own special place in our Universe.
So the question I now ponder is how will I invest these remaining months of Uranus in this Ares energy to take the spark that was ignited in 2011 and fan the flames with the Leo fire now upon us. It’s important not to waste this opportunity. My calling is to go big and to call out the uniqueness in others. I am asked to bring the Leo light of my Uranus and be the energy that draws others from darkness and into their own special light.
The question for you is simply this – in what way do you see this Uranus/Ares energy supporting your own deeper path? Look deeply within the shadows of far away Uranus and see the uniqueness you bring. Celebrate ‘being different’ and step forward.
Blessings of love and light. Go big and embrace your own unique qualities.
