Uranus Stations Direct

September 6, 2025. Uranus stations retrograde. 

Tropical. 1° Gemini 27'. Sidereal. 7° Taurus 20’. kṛttikā


February 3, 2026. Uranus stations direct.

Tropical. 27° Taurus 27'. Sidereal. 3° Taurus 19'. kṛttikā


The following is adapted from other newsletters but the dates and degrees are updated for the present time. I know that those of you who follow classical Jyotisa may not consider Uranus, but hopefully you may be able to find some relevance in this post.


As I have said before, do not be fooled when a planet goes direct, since it will have already been hovering around that degree for a while, and it will take anywhere from a few days to a few weeks (depending on the planet) for that energy to start to move forward quickly. Uranus takes an even longer time to move forward and since its retrograde period is longer and slower than a faster moving planet, lasting for five months. Uranus, as we see above, only traveled four degrees in those five months.


Although Uranus moves technically direct on February 3, 2026, it has been hovering around Tropical. 27° Taurus 27'. Sidereal. 3° Taurus 19' with a one-degree orb between approximately December 25, 2025-March 20, 2026. It was first on that degree when it stationed retrograde August-September 2024, then it went direct throughout May 2025, and now it has come back for a final time, so if you have a planet, point, or angle close to that degree, think about what may have happened since September 2024 that might have signaled that a change was going to come. It does not mean you are in a high state of anxiety since then, but it means that change is on the horizon in August-September 2024, then it came to the surface again in May 2025, and now, between December 2025-March 2026, you should be moving on to something a bit different. Scroll down to see what area of your life might be affected.


Because retrograde and direct stations are points of power and intensity, often powerful events occur around the station in the world and in your personal life. Of course they are unpredictable due to the definition of Uranus, and they can be intensely wonderful, or intensely confusing, challenging, and devastating. things happen that are unexpected, powerful, and intense. Remember that keywords for Uranus also include inspiration, excitement, sudden occurrences, instability, independence, rebellions, and many more. Sometimes things happen that we were not expecting, and we are forced to make a move in an area of our lives. Sometimes it may be a change we have wanted to make for a while, but nothing happens until Uranus comes along and forces us to make that move.


In the world that means that unexpected intense events can occur and have occurred. Since December when Uranus slowed up and hovered around the degree where it is currently stationing direct, there have been so many violent episodes throughout the world. As Uranus moves closer to the stationary degree over the last few weeks, at least in the United States, we have been confronted with protests in Minneapolis resulting in two protesters being shot and killed. Now that Uranus is near the station, President Trump has also tried to defuse the situation by changing the leadership so let's see if this works. Uranus stationing direct should indicate a change in a forward direction.


The extreme weather conditions throughout the United States resulting in snowstorms and bitter cold in areas that usually do not experience this are also an indication that Uranus heralds meteorological changes, and often times even more dramatic events, like earthquakes, floods, hurricanes, typhoons, etc. so I would not be surprised if this should occur within the next few weeks, but even towards the middle of March since Uranus is still within orb of its stationary direct degree.


Keep looking around and do not be surprised as to what comes next. The month of February and first half of March will bring wild events. Of course, this corresponds with eclipse season between February 17-March 3, and Mercury retrograde on February 26, with its shadow or retrograde arc period starting on February 11. It really has been a long transit, so goodbye to Uranus after it moves past the stationary direct degree in mid-March.


Read below for the zodiac you use.


Read if you use Indian sidereal astrology. If you have a planet, point, or angle in your chart within 1-2 degrees of the Uranus direct station at Sidereal. 3° Taurus 19', you will be affected by this transit between approximately December 25, 2025-March 20, 2026. It was first on that degree when it stationed retrograde August-September 2024, then it went direct throughout May 2025, and now it has come back for a final time. This transit emphasizes change and moving forward, sometimes in a way you have hoped would happen, and perhaps in a way that will come unexpected and as a complete surprise but nevertheless welcoming. Think about the last time that Uranus crossed this point, as stated above, and there may be something that has been changing and evolving, but it will now happen quickly with Uranus stationing and then moving away from that point through mid-March. If you think about the past year and a half, but especially around the dates above, you could be prepared for what is happening now and the message it provides for the future. But since it is Uranus there will always be surprises, twists, and turns, so expect that as well. Don't be caught off-guard because then Uranus will force you to make changes but not in the time that you map out for yourself.


Whatever the planet or angle that Uranus conjoins represents, is where change should occur, and sometimes suddenly and without warning, so be prepared for the unexpected. General descriptions of the grahas (planets) are as follows:

Sun. power, vigor; Moon. maternal, mind; Mars. strength, courage; Mercury. speech, learning; Jupiter. knowledge, wealth; Venus. love, happiness; Saturn. sorrow, fear; Rahu. intensity, compulsion; Ketu. extremes, spirituality; Lagna. destiny, vitality. If you want to use Uranus, Neptune, Pluto and other angles, you can look below at tropical Western astrology for their keywords.

February 2026 Lunations: Full Moon and New Moon (Times listed in GMT)


February 1, 2026. Full Moon. 22:08

Tropical. 13° Leo 03’. Sidereal. 18° Cancer 56'. aśleṣā


February 17, 2026. New Moon Solar Eclipse. 12:00

Tropical. 28° Aquarius 49'. Sidereal. 4° Aquarius 42'. śātabhiṣaj  


If you have any planets, points, or angles around those degrees (I would take a one-two degree orb) then whatever is represented by that planet, point, or angle, will be prominent and important until the next lunation, meaning that if something in your chart is conjunct this month's Full Moon on February 1, 2026, it may be prominent until next month's Full Moon Lunar Eclipse on March 3, 2026. If something in your chart is conjunct the degree of this month's New Moon Solar Eclipse on February 17, 2026, it may be prominent until around October 10, 2026, when North Node-Rāhu conjoins the degree of the eclipse because it is an eclipse and not just a New Moon and therefore has more intensity. Whatever is activated and aroused around the eclipse may provide completion around October 10, 2026.


The New Moon represents beginnings and can help you to institute a change you have been thinking about while the Full Moon is an accomplishment or culmination and gives the push to continue on that path. If you have planets, points, or angles conjunct this month's lunations, you will feel a need to take action with either something new (New Moon) or the manifestation of something you have been working on (Full Moon). Of course, the houses that these lunations fall in, will highlight those areas of life as well.


If your birthday is between January 31-February 2, then the Full Moon is in your solar return (varṣaphala), the annual birthday chart, or close enough that it will be important for the year ahead until your next birthday, meaning that it may be a year when things you have been working on will manifest, or feel like they are moving in the right direction, so continue with whatever is fulfilling you. Set your intentions high and gather your confidence since this is the year when things will take place. The Full Moon on your birthday is important since the year ahead will be even more significant than usual. make sure that you are prepared to make those changes that come with manifesting your hopes, otherwise they can pass you by.


If your birthday is between February 16-18, then the New Moon, which is a partial solar eclipse, is in your solar return (varṣaphala), the annual birthday chart, or close enough that it will be important for the year ahead until your next birthday, meaning a change is bound to happen, so work on that change. It could be a physical move, job change, relationship change, or simply working on yourself to integrate new patterns and habits into your life. Expect a great deal of transformative experiences that will make you want to change or take a step in a different direction. Take your time but do head in that direction, since otherwise it will happen to you whether you initiate it or not.


The February lunations also occurred on the same dates and degrees in 1969, 1988 and 2007 so think about anything important that might have occurred in that birthday year. Although other planets will be different from those years, it still may indicate the area of change or importance in those years. (Scroll down for more Celestial Events.)
